Foxx and Friends Debut New PanelThere's plenty of uncertainty about who will be leading the House -- but not quite as much on where they'll lead. One of the biggest priorities of the new Speaker has already been decided, thanks in part to yesterday's vote to turn up the heat on Planned Parenthood. Now five investigations into the ghoulish organ harvesting business, members say the only thing they're left with is more questions.To put the full weight of the House behind the issue, Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-N.C.) introduced a resolution to create a special investigative panel to get to the bottom of the group's wrongdoing. By a vote of 242-184 -- including the support of two Democrats (Reps. Dan Lipinski, Ill. and Collin Peterson, Minn.) -- members gave the committee the green light to launch. For Planned Parenthood leaders, who probably thought they'd weathered the worst of the storm, this guarantees that the issue will continue to roil well into 2016. Over the Left's protests, Foxx explained, "It should be simple to unite behind the principle that organizations receiving hundreds of millions in taxpayer funds are subject to congressional oversight, particularly when their practices may violate federal law and are, frankly, barbaric." |

1. The Consequences of Doing Nothing About Anything - by Adam Brandon via The Daily Caller At the beginning of 2015, I was talking with a congressman who was expressing his frustration with the leadership in Washington. “If we don’t do something about anything,” he said, “we’re going to be in big trouble.” With the announcement that House Speaker John Boehner will resign his seat at the end of October, we’re seeing those chickens come home to roost. And yet, Boehner’s resignation has not come out of the blue. There’s been a long process gradually leading up to this moment. It started last year with Rep. Dave Brat’s historic defeat of House Majority Leader Eric Cantor. The establishment was stunned. They couldn’t believe that the number two man in the House could so suddenly be ousted by an economics professor who spent less on his entire campaign than Eric Cantor spent on steak. It was a defining moment when grassroots America rose up to deliver the unequivocal message that no more would they allow their interests to be made subordinate to those of the special interests of the lobbyist class.

Kevin McCarthy Drops Out Of The Race
To all of you who sent Blast Faxes and made phone calls to Washington, once again, accept our most heartfelt thanks. Taking back the heart and the soul of this great country is not just something that happens on its own. You made it happen, but again, this battle is not quite over. The House of Representatives must elect a new Speaker of the House who is acceptable to rank-and-file grassroots conservatives; and we will not rest until that happens. |
