America now pays more to service the national debt than the government spends on national defense.
@FmrRepKenBuck spent nearly a decade in Congress fighting to stop it, voting against the spending bills that got us here and warning colleagues in both parties about our debt crisis.
Now he's laying out exactly how bad it's become and what it will take to turn it around.
$40 trillion in debt didn't happen by accident. It happened because Washington thinks every problem is its problem to solve.
@FmrRepKenBuck breaks it down with @BillSpadea on @NEWSMAX: cut the waste, make DOGE permanent, and push power back to the states where it belongs.

Socialism doesn't fail by accident. It fails every time, everywhere it's tried: Soviet Union, Cuba, Venezuela.
@FmrRepKenBuck on the split in the Democrat Party: the extreme wing doesn't need a majority. It just needs enough votes to drag the middle along.
That's how a party ends up spending money it doesn't have.
Ken makes the full case in his new book, "Wake Up, America!" Link below.
“People go to Washington D.C. and they claim, ‘I’m gonna drain the swamp,’ and they get there and it feels so comfortable they think they are in a hot tub and they don’t do anything about spending.”
Former Colorado Congressman @FmrRepKenBuck says federal spending is OUT OF CONTROL as Congress refuses to slash Washington’s bloated federal budget—a harsh reality that will eventually fall back on the American people.

Congress doesn't ask 'should we spend more?' Only 'how much more?'
@FmrRepKenBuck sat down with @NEWSMAX to explain why that mindset, not any one party, is what's putting our freedom at risk.

@FmrRepKenBuck turns the old drain the swamp promise on its head saying politicians arrive in Washington ready to cut spending then get so comfortable in the swamp they treat it like a hot tub while the federal budget keeps growing and taxpayers are left with the bill

250 years ago, a handful of revolutionaries had a radical idea: government exists to serve the people, not rule them. That idea built the freest, most prosperous nation in history.

The National Debt Is Making Life in America Unaffordable
