At the House Judiciary Committee hearing, Rep. Hank Johnson (D-GA) slammed Republican attacks on sanctuary cities, followed by a response by Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX) before he spoke to Angel parents.

Rep. Brandon Gill is picking a public fight with fellow House Republicans over immigration, torching the DIGNIDAD Act as “mass amnesty” and daring its backers to say out loud what he says the bill does. “The Dignity Act is mass amnesty and would constitute a terrible betrayal of our voters,” Gill wrote on X, after GOP lawmakers, including Rep. Mike Lawler of New York, talked up renewed interest in the proposal. Gill then turned his fire directly at the bill’s supporters: “If your bill were so popular, you’d be straightforward about what it does. The DIGNIDAD Act provides mass amnesty...

A contingent of House Democrats and Republicans have banded together to advance an amnesty bill that they definitely want you to think is not actually an amnesty. 20 Republicans so far have joined in as co-sponsors on the bill, betraying the agenda of the Trump administration and the will of the electorate. @realBrandonGill Make no mistake about it: The so-called 'Dignity Act' is amnesty. It gives amnesty to any illegal alien that crossed the border before 2021, any illegal married to a U.S.citizen, and also massively expands visas—-including permanent residence for F-1 international students. It would bring mass deportations to...

Despite President Donald Trump winning on the promise of “mass deportations,” a handful of spineless Republicans, alongside Democrats, are trying to push a mass amnesty act known as the DIGNIDAD Act — or, for English speakers, the DIGNITY Act. The legislation is billed as not being amnesty, but would give millions of illegal aliens — both so-called DREAMers/DACA and non-DREAMers/DACA — a legal status. But co-sponsor Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar, R-Fla., insists it’s not amnesty, so much so that she’s screaming at people on X to “READ. THE. BILL. BEFORE. YOU. OPEN. YOUR. MOUTH.” So I read the bill. And...

U.S. Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar (R-Fla.) has fired back at fellow GOP Texas Congressman Brandon Gill over his remarks on the Dignity for Immigrants while Guarding our Nation to Ignite and Deliver the American Dream Act (DIGNIDAD). “The Dignity Act is mass amnesty and would constitute a terrible betrayal of our voters,” Rep. Gill claimed in a post on X. In response via X, Congresswoman Salazar wrote, “READ. THE. BILL. BEFORE. YOU. OPEN. YOUR. MOUTH.” “Calling the DIGNITY Act 'amnesty' isn’t just wrong. It’s a deliberate distortion and it exposes just how little you know about the bill,” Rep. Salazar...

@realBrandonGill I am officially endorsing @KenPaxtonTX to be our next Senator from Texas. The Senate needs serious change— people who understand what time it is and what is at stake for our country. And that starts by electing conservative warriors like Ken.

“Rep. Brandon Gill, R-Texas, discusses how former National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent is reportedly under federal investigation for allegedly leaking classified information on ‘The Ingraham Angle.’”

Democrat Mayor Michelle Wu of Boston, Massachusetts, is going viral for saying that every human on earth has the “legal right” to come to the U.S.A. Wu’s comments have resurfaced and are once again gaining thousands of comments from outraged Americans. In a video clip of an interview from March, Wu is seen saying, “Every single human being has the legal right to come to the United States and seek shelter.” Of course, federal immigration law states that hopeful immigrants cannot just arrive on America’s shores, but must file for visas or asylum while still in their own country (or...

The encrypted-messaging service Signal is the application of choice for dissenters around the world. The app has been downloaded by more than 100 million users and boasts high-profile endorsements from NSA leaker Edward Snowden and serial entrepreneur Elon Musk. Signal has created the perception that its users, including political dissidents, can communicate with one another without fear of government interception or persecution. But the insider history of Signal raises questions about the app’s origins and its relationship with government—in particular, with the American intelligence apparatus. Such a relationship would be troubling, given how much we have learned, in recent years,...

Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX) questioned NPR CEO Katherine Maher at today's House DOGE Committee hearing.

Something smells fishy about the latest developments in the ongoing 'Signalgate' situation, and it's not just The Atlantic's Jeffrey Goldberg's questionable ethics in lurking in private government communications. A deeper dive into Signal reveals connections that should have every American concerned about the intersection of Big Tech, liberal media, and government communications. The Biden administration specifically approved Signal for sensitive government communications, choosing it over other available platforms. Enter Katherine Maher, the CEO of National Public Radio (NPR). Maher has shown herself to be anything but politically neutral. How extreme are we talking? Back in 2020, Maher called Trump a...

Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️ @realchrisrufo · Follow Rep. Brandon Gill brings up all of Katherine Maher's old tweets claiming that "America is addicted to white supremacy" and supporting looting, reparations, and BLM. This woman is the blonde version of Robin DiAngelo.Maybe it would be easier to list the seven Tweets she still stands by.If you were really making an effort plausibly to pass yourself off as a "public broadcaster" representing the full range of the American people, you would never hire Katherine Maher or anyone like her. Mark has loathed PBS and NPR ever since he set foot in America,...

On her show Thursday, SiriusXM’s Megyn Kelly called Republican Texas Rep. Brandon Gill a “stone-cold assassin” after he pressed NPR CEO Katherine Maher over her political bias. Maher testified before the House Oversight Subcommittee on Wednesday regarding NPR’s government funding as lawmakers work with the Department of Government Efficiency to cut wasteful spending. On “The Megyn Kelly Show,” Kelly said she believed Maher would lose taxpayer funding. She highlighted Gill as her new “favorite” congressman.

John Solomon @jsolomonReports Breaking: GOP Rep. Gill files articles of impeachment against judge in deportations case From justthenews.com 11:39 AM · Mar 18, 2025

After Obama-appointed Judge James Boasberg issued an order Saturday halting President Donald Trump’s rapid deportation of Venezuelan gang members, Texas GOP Rep. Brandon Gill swiftly announced plans to file articles of impeachment in an effort to remove him. Gill made the announcement on X, formerly Twitter, on Saturday, noting he would be filing the motion this week. In a subsequent tweet from Elon Musk, the entrepreneur turned Trump advisor responded simply, “Necessary.” “The very worst judges — those who repeatedly flout the law — should at least be put to an impeachment vote, whether that vote succeeds or not,” Musk...

Representative Ilhan Omar (D-MN) claimed Monday on CNN’s “The Situation Room” that “xenophobic and racist” Republican voters respond with campaign donations to GOP members and petition signatures when Republican lawmakers call her out. Co-host Pamela Brown said, “I want to follow up with something else, because we recently had one of your Republican colleagues, Brandon Gill, on the show. He said that America would be better off if you were arrested and deported. He also said that there was audio of you advising what he said are illegal immigrants here from Somalia on how to evade ICE detection. I want...

Rep. Brandon Gill (R-Texas) has called for deporting Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), a U.S. citizen, back to her country of birth, Somalia. “America would be a better place if @IlhanMN were deported back to Somalia,” Gill wrote Tuesday on X. Gill, a freshman lawmaker representing Texas’s 26th Congressional District, was responding to a clip another X user shared on Tuesday of her recent interview with a reporter. Thirty minutes later, in another post, Gill wrote that “we should have never let Ilhan Omar into our country.” Omar came to the U.S. as a refugee in 1995 and became a naturalized...
