00:00 Good morning.
00:12 Last week's verdict in New York shows how corrupt, rigged, and un-American the weaponized
00:17 justice system has become under Joe Biden and Democrats.
00:22 The facts are clear.
00:23 This was a zombie case illegally brought forward by a corrupt prosecutor doing Joe Biden's
00:29 political bidding in a desperate attempt to save Joe Biden's failing and catastrophic
00:34 campaign.
00:35 The case hinged on the testimony of a convicted felon who was disbarred for lying and perjured
00:41 himself to Congress.
00:43 This sham trial was overseen by a corrupt and highly unethical judge who is a Biden
00:48 donor and whose own family has directly profited from this case.
00:53 This corrupt Democrat judge imposed a clearly unconstitutional gag order on President Trump
00:59 and his team.
01:00 The prosecution team that brought forward this case consisted of a Soros-funded far-left
01:05 Democrat district attorney Ana Vendetta, Democrat political operatives, and Democrat donors.
01:11 We must work and are committed to working around the clock to ensure President Trump
01:15 is victorious this November to save America from Biden's failed far-left Democrat agenda
01:21 and this illegal weaponization of the justice system against the American people.
01:26 This week on the floor, House Republicans will deliver for our veterans and continue
01:31 our steadfast support for our most precious ally, Israel.
01:35 At every opportunity, Joe Biden has turned his back on Israel, most recently refusing
01:40 to sanction the International Criminal Court following their politically motivated targeting
01:45 of Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu.
01:48 The ICC must be immediately sanctioned.
01:52 That is why today, House Republicans will bring Chip Roy's bill, the Illegitimate Court
01:56 Counteraction Act, to the House floor to ensure needed guardrails to protect Israel and all
02:02 our allies from baseless, undemocratic attacks by the international bureaucrats of this illegitimate
02:08 court.
02:09 We will also bring up the Milcon VA Appropriations Bill to fully fund veterans programs and benefits
02:16 and prohibit the Biden administration from funding woke priorities.
02:20 I'm proud to announce that following many years of advocacy, this legislation will also
02:24 secure Fort Drum in upstate New York in my district as the third missile defense site
02:29 on the East Coast, ensuring our policy of peace through strength by bolstering our nation's
02:34 defense.
02:35 With that, we have two special guests today, Congressman Michael Guest, who serves on the
02:39 Milcon VA Appropriations Subcommittee, and we also have Congressman Juan Siscamani from
02:44 Arizona to discuss the impact of the Biden border crisis.
02:47 We will begin with Michael Guest from Mississippi.
