What happened in Congress this week wasn’t oversight—it was an embarrassment. It was a living, breathing, live-streamed example of why Americans are fed up with the political class, and why the people are rallying around leaders who actually fight for them.
You’d think when a sitting Cabinet Secretary shows up to testify before Congress—especially one fighting for better healthcare access—you might get a serious, substantive conversation. But you’d be wrong. Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. showed up prepared to discuss budgets, programs, and patient care. Instead, he was met with a political drive-by by Sen. Patty Murray, who decided to exploit the story of a cancer-stricken woman for the sake of partisan optics.
Kennedy, to his immense credit, didn’t play along. He called it what it was: “You don’t care about Natalie,” he told her point-blank. And he was right. Because if Murray had actually cared, she wouldn’t have weaponized a private citizen’s suffering just to take a shot at someone doing the work. She would have worked with Kennedy to help her.
That’s the difference. Kennedy is doing the job. The Democrats are doing theater.
And it wasn’t just Kennedy under fire this week. Over in the House, Secretary Kristi Noem was grilled by none other than Eric Swalwell—yes, the same Eric Swalwell who spent years pretending to be a serious member of Congress while entangled with a literal Chinese spy. He’s suddenly worried about “misinformation” because a deportation post might’ve had a watermark on it? Give me a break.
Noem, unlike Swalwell, didn’t flinch. She stood firm on her decision to deport Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an illegal alien with a criminal record. And when Swalwell got cute—waving his arms and claiming his “bulls**t detector” was going off—Noem calmly pointed out what every sane person watching already knew: this wasn’t about facts or policy. It was about Swalwell trying to score a viral clip for MSNBC.
Swalwell doesn’t want immigration law enforced. He wants open borders, photo ops, and applause from the blue-check peanut gallery. Meanwhile, Noem is out there trying to keep Americans safe from violent criminals who shouldn’t be here in the first place.
Let’s be honest. The reason Democrats loathe Kennedy and Noem has nothing to do with budgets or deportations. It’s because both of them are doing exactly what voters asked for: enforcing the law, protecting families, and refusing to bow to the media circus.
That kind of leadership is a threat to the system.
And Americans are noticing. They see through the charade. They see Patty Murray’s feigned concern for the sick as political grandstanding. They see Swalwell’s frat-boy histrionics for what they are: desperate attempts to stay relevant. And they’re seeing in Kennedy and Noem a refreshing glimpse of what accountability and courage actually look like.
That’s what we voted for. That’s what we want more of.
We didn’t send Kristi Noem to Washington to win popularity contests. We sent her there to put Americans first—and she’s doing it. We didn’t confirm RFK Jr. to play along with party politics. We put him there to clean up a bloated, broken health system—and he’s taking it apart brick by brick.
So when Democrats throw tantrums in committee rooms, what they’re really doing is advertising their own irrelevance. They don’t have solutions. They don’t have facts. They don’t even have the ability to ask intelligent questions. All they’ve got is attitude, bad language, and a camera crew.
America deserves better. And for the first time in a long time, we’re getting it—from people like Kennedy and Noem.
The swamp creatures are snarling because the tide is turning. And it’s turning in our direction.
