Young Kim's Campaign Website Called Her a 'Proven America First Fighter' on August 14. Today Trump's Name Is Gone From Her Homepage.
In August, Kim's homepage promised she would 'Stand with President Trump to deliver a bold America First Agenda.'

Americans Say Groceries Are Their Biggest Money Worry. House Republicans Spent the Evening of September 1 Voting to Condemn Socialism.
H.Res. 1490 passed 220-192. It changes no law and spends no money. Its one concrete demand is the SAVE America Act, a proof-of-citizenship rule of the kind Kansas tried — where 31,089 people could not register, against 39 confirmed noncitizens the state found in the previous 14 years. 189 members with a page on this site voted yes.

H.R. 8646 passed 213-210 on June 4. It comes in $380 million below last year and, in the Appropriations Committee's own words, reduces salaries and expenses "to account for staffing reductions" — the nearly 4,300 FDA and roughly 900 meat-inspection jobs already gone. 188 members with a page on this site voted yes. Four voted no.
Young Kim Chairs the House's East Asia Panel and Sits on Its China Committee. She Kept $5,200 From a Chinese Media Mogul Until the FBI Raided Him.

Young Kim Calls Her SEC Bill 'Commonsense.' It Was Already Title IV of the Bill That Kills the Enron Watchdog.
Kim's REG Act sounds procedural. It passed committee bolted into a nine-title package that abolishes the accounting board created after Enron and lets corporate lawbreakers be fined once instead of hundreds of times. Her own press release says so.
Young Kim's 'Stop DEI Act' Is One Sentence Long and Bans Something That's Already Illegal
Kim's bill cuts off every dollar of federal education funding to any college that violates civil rights law — which was already true. Her own press release admits it 'reinforces existing federal civil rights protections.' It has two cosponsors and hasn't moved since April.
ICE Is Reading Your Posts. Congress Paid for It.
A Wall Street Journal investigation found ICE is paying contractors millions to scan social media around the clock, then using subpoenas to unmask Americans who criticize the agency. Nobody has been charged. That may be the point.
