Forty million is sent to the Taliban every week. Cash is flown by charter jets into Afghanistan, it’s auctioned off to the Taliban, and exchanged for Afghani currency.
Our bill to Defund the Taliban is stuck in the Senate waiting for a vote. Please urge Senate Leader @JohnThune to pass the No Tax Dollars For Terrorists Act: (202) 224-2321.
I’m grateful for your support.

We are witnessing a fundamental and irreversible change in the way people think about governance.
Just three years ago, political progressivist tenets such as DEI, climate change, unrestrained government spending, and globalism achieved a zenith of influence and power. Suddenly and broadly, progressivism is becoming an exhausted and discredited political philosophy both within nations and on the international stage.
This decline is occurring because of the Trump Administration’s single-minded pursuit of national interests as the organizing principle of a government's behavior. Indeed, the many successes of the Administration are changing people's underlying assumptions of how to best attain economic growth, how to best optimize freedom and prosperity, and how to best protect and safekeep a national population. This shift is also re-shaping expectations of national political leaders: their duties, obligations, and priorities are being re-focused on serving the interests of their constituents rather than serving some vague notions of global interdependence. To be sure, this conceptual shift is only beginning, but it is taking hold and it portends greater change to come.
In fact, this change is so profound that it seems likely we are on the cusp of a third wave of liberty and prosperity growth around the globe. The first wave occurred in the 1800's as nations and peoples adopted the freedom-oriented principles spelled out in the U.S. Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution. The second wave followed in the mid 1900's as nations emerged from colonial status and again adopted language from the U.S. founding documents to guide their newfound nation's establishment.
A third wave is building.
