NY v. Trump Trial Verdict Yesterday, our weaponized justice system was on full display against President Donald Trump. Alvin Bragg is a Soros-backed District Attorney who has made it his mission to go after President Trump. Judge Juan Merchan and a jury charged President Trump with 34 counts of falsifying business records in the first degree. Biden and the Democrats have now let the genie out of the bottle. They’ve weaponized our justice system and transformed the United States into a Banana Republic where every former President - and his supporters - will be targeted with LAWFARE once leaving office. The case relied on the testimony of Michael Cohen, a convicted perjurer who has lied to Congress, prosecutors, his family, the American people, and even admitted to stealing from the Trump organization. Throughout the trial, the judge barred President Trump from speaking on these facts, blocked a former FEC commissioner from testifying on President Trump’s behalf, and hindered President Trump’s defense team.  This verdict will not withstand an appeal and was only brought as an attempt to interfere with the 2024 election. The radical partisan Democrats behind this abuse of our justice system will not prevail. The voters will settle this on November 5th. I believe this was a rigged verdict against President Trump, and it is a despicable miscarriage of justice.

 NY v. Trump Trial Verdict

 
Trump NYC

Yesterday, our weaponized justice system was on full display against President Donald Trump. Alvin Bragg is a Soros-backed District Attorney who has made it his mission to go after President Trump. Judge Juan Merchan and a jury charged President Trump with 34 counts of falsifying business records in the first degree.

 

Biden and the Democrats have now let the genie out of the bottle. They’ve weaponized our justice system and transformed the United States into a Banana Republic where every former President - and his supporters - will be targeted with LAWFARE once leaving office.

 

The case relied on the testimony of Michael Cohen, a convicted perjurer who has lied to Congress, prosecutors, his family, the American people, and even admitted to stealing from the Trump organization. Throughout the trial, the judge barred President Trump from speaking on these facts, blocked a former FEC commissioner from testifying on President Trump’s behalf, and hindered President Trump’s defense team. 

 

This verdict will not withstand an appeal and was only brought as an attempt to interfere with the 2024 election. The radical partisan Democrats behind this abuse of our justice system will not prevail. The voters will settle this on November 5th.


I believe this was a rigged verdict against President Trump, and it is a despicable miscarriage of justice.

Around the District

 
Around the District

This week, Team Weber attended Memorial Day Ceremonies across Southeast Texas! Not a second went by this weekend that I wasn't thinking about all the men and women who paid the ultimate price for our freedoms. The rest of the week, Team Weber attended the Bay Area Houston Economic Partnership Legislative update from my good friend Rep. Brian Babin. They joined the City of La Marque and FEMA Townhall meeting to ensure constituents know that YOUR office (we NEVER forget that we work for YOU) can assist in casework-related issues with agencies like FEMA. 


 

Visiting Washington this Summer?

In order to tour the United States Capitol, advance reservations are required. Individuals, families, and small groups (15 or fewer people) can create an account and reserve a tour date here. Reservations are available 90 days in advance.


Constituents of Texas' Fourteenth Congressional District may also request a tour on the Tour Request page. We offer staff-led tours to constituent groups of up to 15 people. Again, please request early, as there are still limitations on the number of groups that can visit each day.

If your tour is confirmed, please note that you will be assigned a specific time.  All White House tours are free of charge.

Tours are scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis, and the White House requires at least two months advance notice to be considered. Requests submitted over three months in advance will be responded to when tour submission becomes possible (three months before the requested dates).


If a tour is available, you will receive an email from the White House Visitor's Center asking you to submit additional personal information such as name, birth date, place of birth, and social security number for security purposes.


The White House also requires tour participants to have valid, federal photo identification in hand prior to taking a tour. 


The White House does not guarantee tour acceptance and reserves the right to cancel or modify approved tours at any time.

Protecting our Second Amendment 

 
second amd

This week, I joined my Texas colleague Rep. Roger Williams to introduce a resolution expressing Congress's strong support for the second amendment and condemning the Biden Administration's anti-gun agenda and their attacks on law abiding gun owners. Now more than ever, this issue is vitally important as we have seen an unprecedented number of attacks by this administration on Americans' rights to keep and bear arms.


On October 27, 2023, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) paused the issuance and renewal of export licenses for firearms, ammunition, and related materials. This was supposed to be for 90 days. It is now over 180 days. Businesses are shuttering because they can't fulfill the contracts they made prior to the pause, devastating the industry.


To justify the pause and policy changes, BIS mischaracterized government reports claiming that U.S.-exported guns are contributing to international crime. However, even the ATF admitted that less than 1% of guns lawfully exported from the U.S. are connected to such a crime. Most crimes are committed by guns smuggled through the black market—a phenomenon that will only increase with the rule.


The new BIS rule includes devastating changes: Licenses will lose 4-year validity, increasing red tape and backlogs. Moves 36 countries to the ineligible list. Increases the number of firearms and component ineligible for export. Reduces license exceptions, significantly increasing the backlog.


Specifically, the resolution:

  • reaffirms the support for the Second Amendment and the constitutional guarantee that the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed
  • disapproves of President Biden's gun control agenda and hostility towards the lawful gun industry
  • opposes the Biden administration's continuous abuse of executive branch authority to restrict citizen's fundamental Second Amendment right
  • disapproves of recent administrative rule and policy changes by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives to restrict citizen's Second Amendment right
  • disapproves of recent administrative rule and policy changes by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives to restrict citizen's Second Amendment right
