  • our country so great.

  • And, um, I really hope that you'll be able to tell my story a little bit better instead of just reporting and repeating Uh, maybe some things that you don't like about me or things that were on social media in 2018.

  • You see, the reason why I ran for Congress is because I really don't respect what our government has become as just unordinary American, someone who's had to work hard all my life, someone who's been married for almost 25 years and raised three kids.

  • And I gotta tell you, my three kids are the greatest part of my life.

  • That's the best thing I've ever done is to be a mom.

  • I really love our country.

  • I love our freedoms and our sincerely want all of your Children and my Children and all of us to continue to have the opportunity to have the American dream.

  • But our government is failing us.

  • You see, we're approaching nearly $30 trillion in debt as a successful business owner for over 20 years.

  • If I ran my company the way this government runs and spins and waste and puts us in debt with our own hard earned tax dollars.

  • I'd be out of business a long time ago and we'd be homeless on the streets.

  • But it's much worse than that.

  • For decades now, this government has sold out.

  • Our American worker sent our jobs overseas to foreign countries.

  • We've opened our borders wide open to be flooded with illegals coming into our country.

  • Think about Kate Stein Lee, who was murdered on appear in California.

  • She died in her father's arms.

  • Chris show debt.

  • Her father served our country four tours, four tours in the Middle East, protecting our freedoms.

  • When he came back home, his daughter was killed by an illegal alien in Texas.

  • These are the things that shouldn't happen.

  • But these air, the policies that are allowed and continued our country has made it legal and funded with our tax dollars over 62 million abortions murdering God's creation in the womb.

  • That is a sin, a disgusting evil that is unfathomable.

  • I can't even believe that it continues.

  • But here's the thing.

  • All of these women that have gone through that it leaves the hole in their soul that never heals.

  • And those women have been taught that This is the way that they should achieve.

  • This is the way they can build a career.

  • This is a way that they can solve the problem that they didn't want in the first place.

  • That's a horrible lie.

  • It's a terrible lie.

  • As a mother and a woman who's had a successful career, I can tell you being a mom is the greatest gift of my life.

  • I really hope that America can end the evil of abortion.

  • Also want you to know that free speech matters.

  • Free speech really matters in yesterday, when the Democrats on 11 of my Republican colleagues decided to strip me of my committee assignments, education and labor and the Budget Committee, you know what they did?

  • They actually stripped my district of their voice.

  • They stripped my voters of having representation toe work for them for the budget, a successful business owner that knows how to make a profit, not a loss.

  • That's what my district voted for me for.

  • I'm a mom with three kids who has taken my Children to gun free school zones their entire time.

  • They went to school, and when I was in 11th grade, 16 years old when Joe Biden created gun free school zones, one of my schoolmates brought three guns to school on a school bus in a duffel bag.

  • Brought them into the school in the first period class because he was very upset at two of his classmates, he pulled out his weapon, went to take control.

  • The coach in the classroom, knocked him to the floor.

  • But he was able to reach in and get another one of his guns fired.

  • His weapon took control of our school and we were held hostage in our classrooms for five hours.

  • I want you to know, I know that fear that David Hogg felt it's terrifying.

  • It's terrifying when the only person in the building with a gun it is very upset and is there to do evil.

  • And there's no good guy with any guns to protect us.

  • That's why when I was in Washington, I could go from Senate office, the Senate office, just like David Hogg and say, Vote no to gun control because we need our Second Amendment rights.

  • We need to be able to protect our Children with good guys with guns, just like the people up here protected themselves with 30,000 National Guard troops.

  • Imagine that They wanna leave our Children defenseless, but they will surround this place with a big, beautiful border wall and a whole bunch of good guys with guns.

  • See, these are the policies that discuss me.

  • These are the policies that discussed the American people, and these are the policies of hypocrites.

  • You see, when the people in charge want to just spend your money and spend your money and you have no choice but to give it to them.

  • And believe me, I've been a good taxpayer for years now and always will be.

  • And then they want to send our hard earned dollars over to foreign nations and so called foreign aid to fund things like border walls and bridges in schools and roads.

  • An abortion that's wrong.

  • Our tax dollars should stay here in America.

  • Our tax dollars should fund our border wall, our bridges, our schools, our roads.

  • They should help our homeless.

  • They should help.

  • Our people are for gotten.

  • Are orphans are foster care Children.

  • That's what our hard earned tax dollars should be doing, not what these people here have been doing for decades.

  • Those that were in charge have been here for decades.

  • Decades?

  • Do you know the average age of retirement?

  • It's around 64 65 years old, in the private sector, but not here in Congress.

  • They cling to power as long as they can, because apparently it's addictive and they can't give it up.

  • This is something that I just can't tolerate.

  • I can't take it.

  • And the American people are so sick of it.

  • You see a record number of Americans voted for President Trump Record number of Republicans voted for President Trump.

  • Do you wanna know why?

  • It's because they loved his policies.

  • They loved his fight.

  • They love the fact that for once we had a president that stood up for America, stood up for American businesses and remembered the for gotten man.

  • He was the president that didn't care about your skin color because God created us all equal and thank God our Constitution affirms that he was a president that wanted every single person to achieve.

  • And that's why we supported him.

  • That's why I've always supported him.

  • I want to tell you Republican voters support him.

  • Still, the party is hiss.

  • It doesn't belong to anybody else.

  • This impeachment trial that's going to happen next week is a circus.

  • It's a circus that allows the media companies to get lots of clicks, lots of views and sell ad dollars.

  • And you know what?

  • That's pretty disgusting, too.

  • Everyone here knows that he did not cause this attack on the capital.

  • Nor did I, Nor did any Republican.

  • But the responsibility falls squarely on those that invaded the capital, the ones that planned it ahead of time.

  • Those are the people that should be held accountable.

  • I was in the chamber, unlike a O.

  • C.

  • Representative Ocasio Cortez that faked her outrage with another hoax.

  • Just another hoax that gets shared Everywhere.

  • You see those kind of fake lies, like AOC representative Cori Bush telling people that I attacked her when in fact, it was on video that she attacked me.

  • This is the kind of fake outrage that is dividing our Congress along with the fake outrage on the news every single day that's dividing our people.

  • You know what the media does.

  • And you guys were great at it.

  • And I'm telling you this because I wanna like you.

  • But you're doing a really good job at addicting our nation to hate teaching people to hate people like me, President Trump and then on the right.

  • It's the same way teaching people to hate a O.

  • C Ilhan Omar, Nancy Pelosi.

  • See, it goes both ways, doesn't it?

  • But teaching people to hate and addicting them to it is killing our country.

  • It's causing people to no longer be friends, families to no longer talk to each other, even husband and wives getting divorced parents not talking to their Children and the other way around.

  • I think that's terrible and it's shameful.

  • When you have such a platform as you have, what do you want your legacy to be?

  • Do you want your legacy to be the platform that destroyed our nation and caused our people to hate one another?

  • Or would you rather be a platform that told the truth?

  • Because you're given the great gift, the freedom of press, so you can tell the truth?

  • I would love for you to be that platform, and I would be so proud of you.

  • I wouldn't be mad at any of you.

  • I had the greatest opportunity yesterday, and I'm so grateful for it.

  • And for that I'm grateful to them.

  • None of us are perfect.

  • And when we when we go about our life thinking that we are we're such hypocrites.

  • Truthfully, we really are.

  • If we think we're perfect taken judge one another, that's such a mistake.

  • So going forward, I've been freed.

  • Ideo I feel freed because you know what's happening on these committees.

  • You see, we have a basically a tyrannical E controlled government right now.

  • The Democrats, We've got Joe Biden writing executive order after executive orders signed him.
