In order to believe that Republican politicians support border control, you would simultaneously have to believe that Congress couldn’t shut down government until President Biden takes action.
You would have to believe the GOP House has no options, no power, no control, no ability or capacity to use the power of the people’s house to change the dynamic. That’s all nonsense. We do the things that are important to us. We avoid the things we do not want to do.
Republicans can shut down government, shut down agencies, cut off funding, and tell the American people why they are doing it… They can use their power to force Joe Biden to fight them and simultaneously make Biden justify to the American people why he refuses to secure our nation. Republicans could file court cases, force action, hold impeachment hearings, issue subpoenas, force testimony, demand action or face the consequences…. There is much they can do.
Alas, instead of taking severe action in the face of severe peril, they pretend to be powerless and announce they will “advocate” which means in DC, talk about it more.
[SOURCE]
We are in an abusive relationship with government, and the GOPe is a gaslighting wing of the UniParty vulture.
If we have no border security, which is obviously the case, why are we paying a whopping $850 billion a year for a “Department of Defense”?
Because lobbyists for the MIC suppliers are bribing DoD officials and Congress.
because we have not withdrawn consent to be governed by them.
It’s obvious who the majority of the Republicans in congress hold allegiance, and it’s not We the People. As it was said today on Bannon’s War Room: if the House votes to fund the government before the Senate passes HR2 and Biden signs it, they all need to be voted out of office. Shut to government down until the boarder is secure.
This unnecessary taxpayer phony trip is a waste of money and time. It is dssigned to burn debate time on the budget and insure another Ombnibus bill . Johnson needs to read the damn Constitution. The house is required to produce a BUDGET not CRs and other BS.
I’ve been asking that question now for years. Just what are we protecting?
Like I keep saying…the GOP likes it this way…Democrats do the dirty work…they line their pockets too, and point and say there’s nothing they can do. It’s perfect.
Sad, but exactly right !!
Classic co-dependency.
It really is. Advocacy is fine for advocates, but when you’re a legislator you damn well need to legislate!
It’s their job description, and what we pay them to do. Massive firings are called for.
definitely. the amazing thing is that they whore themselves for so much less take than the fascists of the DNC.
10% of the big guy’s 10%? thats what it costs for their soul?
Yea
Joe just gave these guys a 5.2 percent raise.
They will keep quiet and vote for the guy who boosts their salary.
“Republican Speaker Johnson Promises to Keep “Advocating” for Border Security“
Well, at least he advocates for it which is that much more than can be said for the Pentagon.
let’s totally vote for these guys! so they can ADVOCATE for their country!
Advocating is such a pansya$$ word. When they really mean ”’ We are not going to do anything ”’.
How many times have we heard that some jerks from congress are headed down to the border, to do what? Congress no one is watching ”’TV NEWS”’ any more, so you are wasting your time down there.
I’m so sick of these liars in DC. And there are millions like me, not good. Its way past time for action!
”’ We are not going to do anything ”’.
not true. they are going to send TONS of outrage tweets! and we will repost them!
Most of the time I read these articles and simply want to post ‘ what can you say or cannot comment on this garbage anymore and we are at the point of no return ‘. Its contemplating the unthinkable at this time.
I was brought up to never allow yourself to be abused and if you are, start throwing punches and fight like hell.
Heading down to the border? Great….pick up a weapon and start defending.
Who said anything about the border? Its to late for down there!
I’m think more along the lines of where I LIVE needs to be defended. Is that ok if I hangout where I live and defend it, Remington?
So, a vacation for a large number of corrupt people at our expense! Let’s see, we’ll have the GOPe hosts, the at least 61 Reps and possibly their significant others, and almost surely their aides, etc.
There are some really expensive hotels and eateries in San Antonio. My goodness! I wonder why they’re not staying the night in Eagle Pass?
Heading to the south as the weather gets messy in DC.
With “friends” like this….y’all know the rest!
fixin to git ready to git started…….but first a trip to the border……Ha….and here I thought they didn’t know one existed.
How much are the taxpayers on the hook for with the 60 plus members venturing down to Texas to see what the world sees and still do nothing about it? These evil 😈 ‘s make me sick.
I live in Northern New York state, and I know what is going on at the southern border and I don’t even watch TV.
So, they are acting like they know nothing about it? WTH!
A bunch of people need to be Fired!
A bunch of people need to be hung!
FIFY
Either, impeaching them doesn’t seem to do anything. Get them out of there!
FIFY? are you calling your Cat or something?
From Syracuse south area. Love the Adirondacks. Visit there often.
Sorry, I couldn’t read past the sentence where he said house republicans will continue advocating
what a crock of bs
Smash and grab!
a few hundred thousand citizens could drop by to help them “advocate” – is it important to the people of Texas?
I have already emailed my representative accusing them of our countries destruction…..repeated what they can do …also CC his political opponent. This is where we must be so loud it is deafening to the ears of Johnson….call him out as a traitor….idiot I don’t care at this point….doing the work of Satan and a phony christian I don’t care….just do something.
i would certainly not discourage people from emailing, but… if you want it to be so loud it is deafening, why are we not swarming the same place where they will be by the hundreds of thousands?
THAT would be heard.
Yeah, the FBI could probably use something like that to get another bunch like the J6ers in jail.
“i was going to resist, but then i got word that the redcoats might punish us, so i stayed home”
-george washington.
yes yes, i am a fed and what not.
There have been lots and lots of gatherings and demonstrations since J6 and the FBI hasn’t done anything. Not an excuse. We understand false flags now and anyway at some point in the abuse it doesn’t matter anymore, when we are in prison either way.
Blow up their DC phone lines…I.would start with Johnson. Use words and points they think you don’t understand. Show them we are not stupid and uneducated.
Absolutely spot on. Other than a handful of truly Constitutional conservatives, the Republican Party are the “slow Marxists” like Leon Trotsky who wanted people to accept Marxism by implementing it slowly. That’s why I call Republicans neo-con Trotskyites. Think about who actually changed the Republican Party from old-right Constitutional conservatives into neo-cons! It was former Trotskyite, Irving Kristol, father of Bill, and William F. Buckley, Pied Piper for the Establishment who was also a Council on Foreign Relations member, a CIA agent and a member of Skull and Bones.
What we have today is the “go along and get along do-nothing” Republican Party. Sundance nailed them, and this new speaker has a freedom index of only 67% which means he votes against the Constitution 33% of the time. McCarthy only had a freedom index of 50% and Jim Jordan’s freedom index was 80%.
Excellent choices who were bypassed … Andy Biggs, Eli Crane, Clay Higgins, Matt Rosendale, and a few others. They haven’t a chance against the neo-cons. Sad but true.
Matt Rosendale was Montana’s sole Representative in the US House.
He’s still Montana’s only Conservative Representative in the House.
Zinke is a McCarthy suck-up.
“Sad but true.” Great thank yew so much! Now I have a Metallica ear worm right before bed!
In this political environment, that ear worm never leaves me !
“Slow Marxism”, see Robert Dabney Lewis on conservatism, quite below from 100 years ago.
“This is a party which never conserves anything. Its history has been that it demurs to each aggression of the progressive party, and aims to save its credit by a respectable amount of growling, but always acquiesces at last in the innovation. What was the resisted novelty of yesterday is today one of the accepted principles of conservatism; it is now conservative only in affecting to resist the next innovation, which will tomorrow be forced upon its timidity and will be succeeded by some third revolution; to be denounced and then adopted in its turn.”

The GOP is far more dangerous than the Democrat party.
The GOP is the reason why we are where we are.
The Democrats are powerless without the GOP.
While there are still a few actual Conservatives in the Republican party, they are marginalized and have little real power.
It is time to leave the GOP and start a Conservative party.
Wrong. The Repukes deserve no respect until they take all power – and the guns needed to enforce the power – away from the Conservatives and hand them to the Patriots.
The only thing “Conservatives” want to conserve is the Swamp and its institutions. They certainly don’t want to conserve the American nation.
Ms.Linda & Co’s are not conservative reps…….
I have a heard a lot of definitions of the word Conservative, way too many!
MAGA is easy, “Make America Great Again”
VSGPDJT…… should have done it on 01/22/2021… his 75,000 000 voters would easily FUNDRAISE $ 1 BILLION…LESS THAN $15 for each voter….for MAGA PARTY……
Only Patrick Buchanan represent real CONSERVATIVE PARTY….all others are STRAUSSIANS/NEOCONS/WARMONGERS/RUSSOPHOBE/ANTI-ORHODOX WH*RES……..
So, basically, they are all going down to the border to take photos they can use in their re-election campaigns with the slogan “Vote _ _ because his/her concerns are your concerns” ?
Bessie2003: Exactly. It’s a “Tough on Immigration” photo junket, paid for by taxpayers.
Photo junket, paid for by taxpayers.
So…….Another “Kodak moment”…………….
Do you remember when McCain was campaigning? He went to the border, walked around with some border patrol dude, and came up with the campaign slogan, “Build the Dang Wall!!!”
These RINOs always act like they just came out of a coma only to be shocked at what has happened to our nation in their absence.
Remember, it is just 60 or so that is going. That means that about 150 are not. And, the 150 are the ones stoping any real action. It’s time to for our own “Great Replacement” project.
H.R. 2 – 118th Congress will control the border – ask Schumer why he is refusing to put it on the Senate floor – he has had it since March 2023.
https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-bill/2/summary/00
We the people in NYS have been stuck with Chuck the Smuck You Schumer for way too long!
We seem to be stuck with Schumer. In the last election his opponent was an African-American Republican, Joe Pinion, who is intelligent, articulate and conservative. The people here simply won’t vote for a non-Democrat.
Everyone in DC wants wide open borders.
As they sit smugly behind the walls of their gated estate.
Anyone else feel cornered with Trump as our only hope? When this kinda thing pops up it concerns me even more.
Only We the People can fix this!! 🇺🇲
I often wonder just what needs to happen before Congress decides we’ve got a real emergency on our hands.
Does half the nation need to be wiped out by an asteroid? would that get their attention? would they decide they need to do something about that?
Unfortunately, no; they’d renegotiate entitlements and then hand out the cash they “saved” to their favorite laundromats.
Only if they can make some More money on it
“I often wonder just what needs to happen before Congress decides we’ve got a real emergency on our hands.”
a false flag that gives them license to crack down more on their own people. and a cucked people to allow it.
This is all a script to be followed. It’s a stage, they are merely players. Performers and portrayers
We are in the … shhh … audience.
Thank you True the Vote! For great news to kick off the New Year, this is hard to beat!
will he send some ‘sternly’ worded letters to the out of control bureaucrats? go on FauxNews this Sunday to say how the Republi-Eunuchs intend to go along to get along?
already a failed chump. 3 months or so in. Pathetic.
y’all just keep hoping and voting for the lesser of two evils.
it’s still EVIL, isn’t it?
Johnson, another FILTHY POS Sellout Uniparty Traitorous COMPLICIT Coward.
I could say this about every human hemorrhoid hanging around in Congress except for about 6 of them.
…but…BUT he JOHNSON wanna represent himself in the “better light” as 30 PE…….
How about this?
WAR: Biden Regime Files Emergency Application Demanding Supreme Court Allow Border Agents to Chop Down Razor Border Barriers Installed By Texas – Governor Greg Abbott Issues Defiant Response
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/01/war-biden-regime-files-emergency-application-demanding-supreme/
So in other words, they’ll just continue to sit back and admire the problem.
Shut Down the Border or
Shut Down the Government
Why does this need to be a choice?
I see little reason that both ought not be done.
Yah, just keep advocating, you jackass.
Sounds like the people in Texas need to meet them at the airport,and give em hell .
looks like we have another “toothless mad doggie” – not – in nJjonsen as we did in “toothless” mad dog mattis!!
Speaker Johnson…..more of the same from the D.C. Swamp “Things!” Bordering Insanity!
Yeah, it’s getting pretty darn cold here in Ohio. I’d like to take a trip to Texas too. I’m sure they will spend most of their time at the border lamenting the chaos they see, running to and fro as hundreds of thousands of military-age men from every part of the globe casually walk over the border seeking asylum while sporting their new look in clothing “donated” by the American taxpayers and looking forward to a smooth flight anywhere in the USA they desire.
To my Congressman, Bill Johnson, please be sure to tell them it is really, really cold here in Ohio. Oh wait, you’re quitting.
but according to twitter talk, they have moved the main incoming invaders to a new “between ports” staging area instead of Eagle Pass, so the show will have less impact
Remember, that securing our Southern Border doesn’t require “FUNDING! from Johnson. It simply requires the backbone to enforce the immigration laws!
Tying funding for the border with giving more money to Ukraine is a useless compromise because as long as CBP and the Border Patrol are used by Biden and Mayorkas as Walmart Greeters nothing will change except Ukraine will have hundreds of thousands of dead Ukrainian soldiers and we’ll have millions more illegal immigrants!
The House controls the purse strings. Why on earth do we fund the NGO’s that are flying illegal aliens from other continents and paying them money to unlawfully enter the United States? Why are we funding the $2k per month per person for benefits? These budget items should be reduced to zero yesterday, or last month, or whenever the Republicans took the House. Zero.
I would settle for now. As in zeroed out right now. There is no way we should pay for our own invasion.
I keep telling my rep Wesley Hunt the same thing – and apparently there is an all Muslim boot camp a mile south of Tijuana
Half the GOP House Reps and Senators are paid off by the Cheap Labor Business Lobby to block efforts to secure the border and ensure that illegal immigration continues. Please realize the GOP is a fake opposition party with the exception of a few legit patriots.
Don’t worry about the spineless speaker. Resignations will have a new speaker soon, one who is unafraid of the ruthless use of power. That will be the 2024 surprise. The new speaker will be the new president after a couple more resignations. It is totally obvious.
I favor Clay Higgins or Cory Mills – doers not yackers
There is no sense putting any faith in a bunch of liars as our hero it will never happen. Come LORD JESUS.
Everyone should remember these people’s names for the history books and what they have done. Never forget these people, all of them have chosen this consequence. Remember them!
The fake two party system and all their lies. Not noble lies, but ignoble self serving lies. There is no Republican or Democrat parties, there is only one party and none of us are in it. They don’t do anything but evil to every single one of you.
We have the worst political leaders who do nothing but serve themselves and hate all Americans. They resent and hate everyone and their actions prove it.
They released terror on the streets and watched. They have agitated countries into wars. They have bombed and blew up countries for their benefit. They have all attacked the populace with forced experiments. Terrorized the young and old of their own people in the name of their own security.
They don’t know God!
Remember them!
I couldn’t have said it better. The English language does not contain the words that would sufficiently describe how much I loath and detest those people.
I just called his DC office about this fake photo op.
They could easily show videos from Ben Bergquam and TGP right in DC.
PLEASE CALL: TELL HIM THAT WE KNOW THIS IS ALL A SHOW.
WE DO NOT WANT OUR MONEY USED TO PROCESS MORE OF THES INVADERS INTO OUR ONCE SOVEREIGN NATION!
DEFUND IT ALL IMMEDIATELY.

Listen to what Matt Bracken has to say about an old Military
Fort at the Panama Canal, which got taken over by the U.N.
and is now being used to handover maps and routes to migrants
facilitating to illegally cross the Mexican border into the US.
The U.N. is running the US border now.
If Mike Johnson was an actual Christian, he’d take the following words very seriously: Prov 3:27
Do not withhold good from those who deserve it when it’s in your power to help them.
Curiosity had me click my thesaurus quick link and I plugged in ‘advocate’.
I came up with a string of words like encourage, support, recommend, promote and urge, among others. They are nothing but emasculated weasel-verbs, that don’t do anything substantial except produce strongly worded letters and campaign speeches.
If Mike Johnson was an actual Christian, he’d take the following words very seriously: Prov 3:27

Johnson needs to go asap!!!!
Same with Rona!!!!
.
This is a brilliant article, Sundance.
Copies need to be attached to bricks and thrown through a few windows.
.
“Advocating” for Border Security.
Actions speak louder than words there Bub…
With due respect to Sundance and all Treepers, and anyone else lurking in the sidelines, I get nauseous, and feel a hemorrhoid syndrome visiting me every time I read about Johnson. What a crock.
But then I just started imagining Lindsey Graham , behind the scenes, teaching them all to wear ballet toe shoes, and pink tutu’s and dance at the same time. I just can’t wait to see this performance. Actually, I can. SICKENING.
How many are being blackmailed vs how many are being paid off?
Johnson has had enough time.
Motion to Vacate The Chair.
Next up?
Speaker Johnson appears to be a very good and decent man. That being said, he also appears to be “way in over his head”. Is he the right individual for the job of House Speaker? Earth to House GOP: a Pitt Bull is required) and you all chose a compromise candidate. Guess what – IT SHOWS.
Nice fellow, true Believer, may possess the necessary skills, but lacks sufficient confidence to take the reins securely, determine the route, and “mush!” until the destination is reached. I believe it’s referred to as, “Take no prisoners.”
Would someone please remind him of Jesus overturning the tables in the Temple? Sit him down, and read him the gospel story as many times as it takes for him to understand the lesson of what is required of him in his new position.
Many of us are nervous to the point of being downright frightened, but we must do what we must do, regardless. You too, Speaker Johnson.
SHUT DOWN THE MONEY FLOW, AND LET THE GOVERNMENT SHUT DOWN TOO – until a solution, with real teeth, is brought to bear at OUR nation’s international borders, immediately, in real time.
Speaker Johnson doesn’t have the stones for this job. Let’s be frank.
Let’s have Dr. Doofenschmirtz from Phineas and Ferb make a ‘MAGA-inator’ and run Nancy Pelosi through it if we want any chance of getting things done.
In the past 10 years, I have learned there are many words synonymous with “doing nothing”…. “advocating” is one of many.
Similar to proposing legislation when the opposing party has the Presidency and there is a razor thin majority in the Senate.
Smoke and Mirrors….
D = Democrats
R = Retards
They are tarators! They need to be treated like the criminals they are.
To those who say “So you would rather still have McCarthy?” I say,…
IN YOUR FACE!
WE were PLAYED, and it is Matt Gaetz that played us.
TWICE, first with the ‘9 days to elect a Speaker’ performance and then the empty promise that McCarthy would serve OUR interests, because we held an axe over his head with a motion to vacate.
And, after he FAILED, utterly in all ‘negotiations’ which is to say served his purpose of postponing any useing the Power of the Purse to force a change on policies, either with the Border, or with DOJ,…
Gaetz brought us the orchestrated and choreographed exit of McCarthy and installation of “we’ll raise the issue” Speaker Johnson, even as McCarthy, as he’s retiring insures the next House will have a Democrat Speaker, with yet another R congressmen announcing his retirement, today.
IN YOUR FACE, if you continue to champion Speaker Johnson,…the “turtle in a fencepost” or Matt Gaetz, the dumb sumbitch who PUT him there.
Relax, SD already telegraphed that PDJT will likely endorse McCarthy for RNC chair. You’ll get to enjoy the best of both.
I respectfully disagree. I think Gaetz did us a favor. We now know for certain that it wasn’t just McCarthy, they are all cowards and stooges.
Yes, Matt Gaetz is a real Patriot.
Stop listening to the posturing leftists in the media. their bottom line is, they hate truth.
Not that it would have much difference but did not Gaetz originally support Jordan and the GOPe dog pilled on Jordon to prevent his ascension?
That is my impression also.
Yep.
Yes. Now let’s see if dutchman will admit that he was wrong. Waiting… waiting… waiting…
I certainly am not suggesting Dutchman is wrong. I simply want to clarify what is happening.
As a Buckeye I was proud to see Jim Jordan seemingly showing the right stuff. Not so much now…
Hence my comment “Not that it would have much difference”
Haven’t met Dutchman and unlikely I ever will but he consistently provides analysis second only to Sundance.
