Bad news for woke ESG corporations. Corporate America seems to be waking up,
00:00:10.280
at least beginning to. More ESG promoting asset funds have closed so far this year
00:00:16.460
than in the past three years combined. BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager and promoter of
00:00:23.420
the woke ideology, said they would also be closing two sustainable emerging market bond funds.
00:00:30.360
Another indicator Americans have finally had a belly full of the Marxist Dems' woke indoctrination
00:00:35.960
is that investors have pulled more money out of the ESG funds in the first half of this year
00:00:42.520
than they put into them. Over two dozen Republican senators, House lawmakers say no more funding for
00:00:49.460
Ukraine. In total, six senators, 23 members of the House, have sent a letter to the White House
00:00:55.640
OMB office demanding an end to slush funds for Ukraine. The letter was sent as President Biden
00:01:02.620
announced an additional $325 million to be sent to Ukraine after meeting with Zelensky. Biden
00:01:10.400
continues to make his blackmail payments to the corrupt country at taxpayer expense. After meeting
00:01:16.980
with Biden, Zelensky headed over to Congress and asked them to approve an additional $24 billion.
00:01:24.120
Dem Senator Joe Manchin breaking with Chuck Schumer on the Senate dress code.
00:01:29.820
Manchin is reportedly circulating a proposal to reestablish the Senate's dress code.
00:01:35.280
The dress code was changed this week by Marxist Dem Majority Leader Chuck Schumer to comfort
00:01:41.220
Senator John Fetterman, who often shows up to work when he does show up to work in a hooded sweatshirt,
00:01:48.340
gym shorts, and sneakers. The man is absolutely an insult to the Senate.

Join us today for The Great America Show. Our guest is Congressman Keith Self.
00:01:58.040
Congressman Self says the RINOs who vote to pass a continuing resolution with the Marxist Dems
00:02:03.600
aren't Republicans, and if they do so, they should leave the Republican Party forthwith.
00:02:10.060
Here he is. There's a small group of our conference that has said at a microphone that they will
00:02:16.540
join the Democrats to pass a clean CR. To me, they effectively leave the Republican Party,
00:02:24.420
and I think that we need to be thinking about how we replace them in vulnerable Democrat seats for the
00:02:32.500
next election, because that is unthinkable. That is not a governing model. We need to use the power
00:02:38.940
the purse that we have, and if we're unwilling to do that, then we cannot govern. We've got to learn
00:02:45.860
to use the power that we have in 218, but our conference is so fractured right now. How do we
00:02:52.160
get it back? We start passing bills. Please join us today for The Great America Show. I'm Lou Dobbs
