The Senate immigration bill, aka border security bill, is only designed as the cover for the Senate to send $60 billion more to Ukraine. The Ukraine money is the priority (corps/lobbyists) the border “security” bill is the technique to create and spend it.
That said, they certainly would not want to let a created and purposeful border crisis go to waste, and they didn’t. The latest version of the Senate Immigration Reform Bill is now public [SEE HERE]. The proposed Senate border security bill provisions are actually worse than existing non-secure border provisions.
[LINK TO BILL]
America First Legal did a great job hitting on the top-line issues created by this new bill. In many ways, multiple ways, this supplemental “border security” bill makes things worse. The bill codifies into law the loopholes currently being used to increase the number of illegal aliens. By this design the bill makes things worse.

The Council On Foreign Relations is the very definition of a ‘fascist’ organization
Great one. And I think of (Sinclair Lewis?) “When fascism comes to America, it will come wrapped in the American flag” that the left likes to use, as it’s obviously really the opposite — they drag out the flag and Constitution (and founders) on the rare occasions that it meets their needs (talking about “insurrections,” as if they’d care.)
Amen Colkitto
And “Antifa” of coarse is a derivative of “anti-fascist” is it not?
Of coarse, what do we expect; robbers, burglars, car thieves, pickpockets and various thieves don’t announce themselvesas such, and if accused will deny it.
Churchill hits another one out of the park.
Poly ticks = Multiple blood suckers.
I wish I had the videos of the sex scandals and bribery payments the godless Chicom commies have on all the senators who voted for this.
Marjorie Taylor Green said she went she arrived in Congresss she was shocked to see a all the Reps and Senators wearing flag lapel pins – of OTHER COUNTRIES.
They tried to pressure her into the racket.
It’s amazing that most Senators and Congressmen think they’re job is to give away America’s wealth to foreign governments!
Giving it away, in exchange for a 10 to 25 percent commission, returned to the Congressperson’s personal portfolio via an offshore shell company.
No, actually its far more organised than that.
In order to buy influence in Congress, (lets say your a foreign govt.) you hire lobbyists, and they have you donate $ to the Senate and House R and D Campaign committees, and RNC and DNC.
And those entities can then donate WITHOUT RESTRICTION, $ to candidates running for election or reelection.
And ‘in exchange’ the Elected Congressman or Senator doen’t have to keep track, they just vote as they are told, by “the leadership” of foreign aid (military or non-military).
Thats their “higher loyalty”

Well, you could certainly buy a lot of congressional members with them…

Bingo. How does PDJT get the appointments he wants past the Senates Advice and Consent in his 2nd term?
By using the currency of the sewer (I henceforth will NOT refer to D.C. as a ‘swamp’!).
According to Rep Tim Burchett a lot of them are compromised with blackmail.
I’d say the handler’s of the NSA in have a pretty good handle on that; U.S. taxpayer funded, of course.
Uniparty hard at work and the evil that controls it.
Troublemaker10 posted a list of Senators who are resisting the immigration bill. Even if it’s DOA in the House we still want as many Senators as possible to vote against it. If the list is correct, where is Tim Scott??

-Ted Cruz
-Steve Daines
-Josh Hawley
-Ron Johnson
-Mike Lee
-Rand Paul
-Marco Rubio

Spartacus
ARE
and Check Senate hearing rooms…
Well we know the RINOs will be voting for it. But Tim Scott is supposed to be MAGA now, right? He endorsed Trump and people (not me though) are saying he’s a potential VP pick. If he votes for this bill he needs to be primaried at the next opportunity which will be 2028, and never allowed to move higher in political office.
Timmy IS NOT my Choice either !
( HOPING / PRAYING that POTUS 45 ” has released the leash to SEE WHO runs off chasing squirrels ” )
ie.
DeSantis
Haley
Ramaswamy
PROBABLY – Noem
CAN You IMAGINE the SWEATING poor Timmy IS GOING THRU ?
” BUT i DON’T WANT TO DISAPPOINT MY FRIENDS , BUT i HAVE a CHANCE that TRUMP WILL PICK ME ! “
I’m sure it’s why all of a sudden he’s engaged. Can’t have a single VP.
This is 2024, if you cannot come out of the closet and be yourself, ya aint right.
Note the “uncommon Bond” title. So Biden has his Spartacus and so does PDJT. Better to have a Spartacus than not, right?
Scott’s political career was mentored and supported by McConnell –he’s on McConnell’s team.
He haas never spoken publicly against McConnell so I don’t expect Scott to speak out against his mentor’s Permanet Open Border bill . But since the bill is dead on arrival in the House, Scott may have McConnell’s permission to vote against it.
Another consideration — RINO Scott is apparently popular in SC with voters and with the primary in two weeks, I’m not surprised the Trump campaign is being friendly in how they speak in public about Scott.
Valid points. In staging this hostile takeover of the Republican party, PDJT is not only dealing with an RNC that is nevertrump, EVERY State R Party Executive Committee is, as well.
Thats a LOT of resistance and influence to overcome,…
Hmmm…I’d like to know where former MO AG Schmitt…expected him to again, follow in the footsteps of the last AG-to-senator, Josh Hawley.
He is. He agreed with Mike Lee
Check the cloak rooms also.
mittens will vote yes because he’s so jealous of trump’s business success and wealth… he’s despised here in ut and will claim God inspired his vote, just like his “yes” on impeachment. He’s a Democrat
A: If he’s not gonna be VP, he doesn’t have to pretend to be MAGA anymore.
Good point. It will be interesting to see what he does on Wednesday.
The Senate will need 60 votes during a Wednesday procedural vote to move forward with considering the legislation. It’s not yet clear whether there will be the requisite Republican support to overcome the filibuster. (source: ABC News)
They need 60 votes to move this bill forward in the Senate. Right now there are 48 Dems, 3 Indies, and 49 Republicans in the Senate.
We can assume all 48 Dems and the 3 Indies (co-author Sinema being one of them) will vote ‘yes’. So that’s 51 votes. They only need 9 GOP votes.
Right now per Troublemaker10’s list there are only 8 GOP Senators fighting against the bill. Any GOP Senator who does not vote ‘no’ is a traitor to us and needs to be cancelled.
No other (cabinet) position he’d be interested in??
Rubio just wants to get reelected.
#1 Senate priority for us is getting Senators elected who will deny unanimous consent on proforma sessions to screw Pesident Trump out of recess appointments. None of that list except, maybe, Josh Hawley is trustworthy on this because all the rest screwed us last time on recess appointments. Trump wi otherwise be screwed by McCONnell’s creatures in all the Departments of the executive branch.
I am not convinced Hawley will move to recess.
Any Senator that does, will engender the ire of McConnell and the leadership, which has six ways from Sunday to screw them.
Initiate ethics investigations, leak blackmail material (true or not) to the media,..instigate Federal or State Investigations of the finances or business, deprive them of any RNC or NSRCC funding for reelection,..and even fund a primary challenger.
Only someone who makes it into the Senate, and has no intention of staying, is going to be willing to call for a recess, so PDJT can appoint.
Personally, I am hoping PDJT has “the goods” on enough of Senate leadership that he can blackmail them into “consenting” to his appointments.
Its the way the sewer that is D.C. operates, and blackmail is the currency.
I and some others I know, regularly write to Senators Blackburn and Hagerty. More often than not angrily demanding some semblance of America First action from them.
Some days are better than others..
I would be surprised not to see Kennedy object.
And what about Missouri’s other senator, Mike Schmidt?
Where is John Kennedy?

House Republican Leadership Statement on Senate Immigration Bill
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Conference Chairwoman Stefanik, Speaker Johnson, Majority Leader Scalise, and Majority Whip Emmer issued the following statement regarding the Senate’s immigration bill:
“House Republicans oppose the Senate immigration bill because it fails in every policy area needed to secure our border and would actually incentivize more illegal immigration.
“Among its many flaws, the bill expands work authorizations for illegal aliens while failing to include critical asylum reforms. Even worse, its language allowing illegals to be ‘released from physical custody’ would effectively endorse the Biden ‘catch and release’ policy.
“The so-called ‘shutdown’ authority in the bill is anything but, riddled with loopholes that grant far too much discretionary authority to Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas – who has proven he will exploit every measure possible, in defiance of the law, to keep the border open.
“The bill also fails to adequately stop the President’s abuse of parole authority and provides for taxpayer funds to fly and house illegal immigrants in hotels through the FEMA Shelter and Services Program.
“Because President Biden has refused to utilize his broad executive authority to end the border catastrophe that he has created, the House led nine months ago with the passage of the Secure the Border Act (H.R. 2). That bill contains the necessary components to actually stem the flow of illegals and end the present crisis. The Senate must take it up immediately.
“America’s sovereignty is at stake.
“Any consideration of this Senate bill in its current form is a waste of time.
It is DEAD on arrival in the House. We encourage the U.S. Senate to reject it.”

FEB 05 2024 –
The ridiculous “Border” Bill is nothing more than a highly sophisticated trap for Republicans to assume the blame on what the Radical Left Democrats have done to our Border, just in time for our most important EVER Election.
Don’t fall for it!!!
https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/111879769015903043
———————————–
Only a fool, or a Radical Left Democrat, would vote for this horrendous Border Bill, which only gives Shutdown Authority after 5000 Encounters a day, when we already have the right to CLOSE THE BORDER NOW, which must be done.
This Bill is a great gift to the Democrats, and a Death Wish for The Republican Party.
It takes the HORRIBLE JOB the Democrats have done on Immigration and the Border, absolves them, and puts it all squarely on the shoulders of Republicans.
Don’t be STUPID!!!
We need a separate Border and Immigration Bill.
It should not be tied to foreign aid in any way, shape, or form!
The Democrats broke Immigration and the Border.
They should fix it.
MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!
https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/111879340091575646
Sounds a bit like the debt-ceiling farce, et al: “5000? Umm…we meant 50,000. Let’s just vote on it fast and then fix it…”
“We need a separate Border and Immigration Bill.
It should not be tied to foreign aid in any way, shape, or form”
Why do they insist on putting these things together? Because they think they are sneaky, they’re not.
MSNBC FEB 05 2024
Schumer threatens to send U.S. troops to fight Russia unless Republicans agree to his $100 billion world-aid bill:
“If we don’t aid Ukraine, Putin will be walk all over Ukraine, we will lose the war & we could be fighting in eastern Europe & a NATO ally in a few years. Americans won’t like that.”
Go ahead and send your alphabet troops over there.
I feel certain the Russians will retreat back to Russia before the American alphabet troops arrive. We can save billions of dollars and many Ukrainian lives.
Looks like Schumer is engaging in extortion there.
Threatening to send US Troops to fight Russia is NO WAY, NO HOW the same as saying what Schmucky Schumer did say: “WE COULD be fighting in Eastern Europe in a few years … etc.”
No wonder politicians get what they want and bloggers like Tom Elliot stays in business! English comprehension is apparently a thing of the past. I don’t like my chain yanked by the Left or the Right.
Folks, watch carefully this Boogeystew character. Schumer’s meaning is crystal clear but Boobeystew muddies the water by crediting Schumer with honesty and character when in truth Schumer’s a lying, murderous pig.
Never forget pig Schumer’s threats to Trump:
“Six Ways From Sunday”
Never forget pig Schumer’s threats to two United States Supreme Court Justices:
“You hear me Gorsuch!? You hear me Kavanaugh!? You have sown the wind and you will reap the whirlwind!”
And never forget this Booger character just stuck up for Schumer and slimed everyone who’s watched for 40 years as Schumer’s destroyed America one step at a time.
They have already pushed out all of the America First military. The wokesters are the majority of the troops. Those are the children of democrat voters. Lets see how that works.
https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-senate-unveils-118-billion-bipartisan-bill-tighten-border-security-aid-2024-02-04/#m
“In addition to $20.23 billion for border security, the bill included $60.06 billion to support Ukraine in its war with Russia, $14.1 billion in security assistance for Israel, $2.44 billion to U.S. Central Command and the conflict in the Red Sea, and $4.83 billion to support U.S. partners in the Indo-Pacific facing aggression from China, according to figures from Senator Patty Murray, who chairs the Senate’s Appropriation Committee.
An additional $10 billion would provide humanitarian assistance for civilians in conflict zones including in Ukraine, Gaza and the West Bank, although the bill includes a provision barring its funds from going to the U.N. agency for Palestinians, UNRWA. The Biden administration and other nations have paused funding to the agency over allegations that some of its staff were involved in Hamas’ Oct. 7 attacks in southern Israel.”
$ 60.1 billion for Ukraine??? $10 billion for Gaza??? With friends like the current US government, we don’t need enemies. How much for the victims in Ohio and Hawaii?
The government sees us as a number for tax purposes. That is all we are.
I’ve been saying this for years…..we are counted as tax paying units.We have no humanity to them, we are to be used and manipulated.
Their underlying problem is we’re like a horse, we don’t know our own strength. If we ALL decided to really throw off the yokes and bits they’d be helpless without us.
DO IT!
And the $20 billion and all of the new regulations for our border security are certainly suspect of not doing a single thing to actually solve the problems at our borders.
No money for Israel either. Israel can pay for and fight their own battles. We’re broke and we’ve given them plenty of money over the years!
Spoken like a true blue Californian. Leopard, spots, and all that.
You can send your money to Israel. In fact, mortgage your house and empty your bank account for them then join the IDF but don’t give away any of my tax dollars.
Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) on Monday said he would oppose the Senate’s pro-migration border bill unveiled on Sunday, listing several issues with the legislation, including thousands of extra green cards per year “for no apparent reason”…
…It also “guarantees new, government-funded lawyers for illegal aliens,” he wrote, adding that the legislation also does nothing to limit “Biden and Mayorkas’s abuse of immigration parole, allowing them to continue abusing parole and issuing work permits to any illegal alien who they claim has an ‘urgent humanitarian reason’ to stay.”
Cotton also said the bill provides “humanitarian” aid to Gaza but without adequate safeguards to ensure the money is not used for “anti-American purposes.”…

Thank you for posting this!
The $20.2 billion for “U.S. Border Security” is deceptive. The money is earmarked for
“hiring new asylum and border patrol officials, expanding the capacity of detention facilities and increasing screenings for fentanyl and other illicit drugs.”
Nothing mentioned of a “wall” or anything to prevent illegal border crossing.
How about a line item for motion sensing machine guns, fencing, and walls?
Where’s the line item for rounding up illegals and sending them back over the border?
Gotta make sure our LE professionals get all of their DEI/CRT training and the Zampolit billets to run that. This stuff costs money!
How about the military just resigns and marches to the border!
Maybe Schumah should arrest and hold Tucker Carlson for interrogation, when Tucker returns from his Russia visit.
Schumer has the power to send U.S. troops anywhere? LOL, and he goes on a left-wing kook channel.
Thought we already had laws to shelter those who commit illegal acts — those places are called prisons
P.S. and as so many others are pointing out — going from “no illegal entry permitted” to “5,000 illegals a day permitted” is looney tunes,
Excellent Question posed to Lankford regarding A Border Wall.
“Why Doesn’t It Start Now?’: Hugh Hewitt Presses James Lankford On Delay In Border Wall Under Senate Deal”
“Biden has been fighting against building the wall over and over again on this, so this does compel that that money can only be used for that, and has to be used for that. But it blocks off the funding to say let’s have the election on it. And if Trump wins the election in November, then he’ll have a pot of money sitting there ready to do that wall construction on it,” Lankford said.”

I was talking to my less political friends, and I explained that regarding our political class, we have a group of Professional Liars. Not bluffers, like in cards, or game shows, not magicians, but PROFESSIONAL LIARS.
They are typically criminals as well, but they may be tip-toeing around the technicality of the law or CHANGE the laws to make their unethical, and immoral behaviors LEGAL, but they are PROFESSIONALLY PAID LIARS.
And they do it so badly, yet they deceive so many, who have very poor discernment.
When you look at a Politician, and their staffers, think – Professional Liar.
You seem to be encouraging people to give up.
Another way to look at it is forcing low-info voters to face the consequences they’re putting on all of us.
Paid armatures is a better description.
You know we don’t want this poopoo legislation if Mayorkas wants it:
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas also praised the proposal, saying in a statement that it “is tough, fair, and takes meaningful steps to address the challenges our country faces after decades of Congressional inaction.” (source: ABC News)
lol
Rubio’s take, and I agree with it:
“Biden people admit they don’t want to secure the border. What they want is bipartisan support for a Senate bill they know is dead in House & that he will never enforce anyways,” Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., posted on X. “Then he can both keep the border open AND blame House GOP for it.” (source: ABC News)
WHEN YOU ARE INVESTED IN The ” problem ”
https://hias.org/statements/hias-congratulates-board-member-alejandro-mayorkas-dhs-nomination/
I was thinking somewhere buried in the bill are some perks for Mayorkas, like a raise or a summer home in Rehoboth Beach.
best reason to tank it I’ve read – ty
The Strange Death Of The United States Via Immigration
Was that translated from ancient Roman Latin? Asking for a friend.
It becomes a problem when the immigrants have no desire to assimilate and then become demanding. For example, they don’t want to bother to learn English and then demand their own languages be included on everything, and cry that they are disenfranchised otherwise.
I can’t imagine moving to another country and not bothering to learn their language. I also can’t imagine moving to another country just to suck up welfare from taxpayers.
No pretending; This “Border bill” was not designed to be passed. It was designed to NOT pass.
It’s a maintain the status quo bill.
It’s a fire up the rhetoric to inflame the peasants bill.
It’s a get out the vote fund raising bill.
It’s a, “We already know what kind of politician you are, now we’re haggling over the price” bill.
In order to start a war, you need people and money. 15 million Illegals have poured across the border and Schumer Threatens to Send US Troops to Fight Russia Unless Republicans Agree to His $100 Billion World Aid Bill.
Now look at who his real allies are and were the money is really going?
Do these people seeing themselves as Elite/Rich intend to make all the illegal immigrants citizens by inducting them into the military? Will the Elite/Rich use these same new citizens to start another World War and/or a Civil War? Is this the way the Elite/Rich intend to reduce or eliminate vast portions of the existing population?
Need Proof: then look at all the smaller wars.

Just Loaded with Goodies! – Try this one on…
The evil that lurks in men’s souls on display in this evil bill.
The entire DC court system should be disbanded and the judges, clerks, and court reporters all tried and sentenced to life terms or worse where warranted.
The immigration problem was to force making a new law. Ray Charles saw this coming.
Page 212 of the bill pdf:
(A) DISCRETIONARY ACTIVATION .—The Secretary may activate the border emergency authority if, during a period of 7 consecutive
calendar days, there is an average of 4,000 or more aliens who are encountered each day.
(B) MANDATORY ACTIVATION .—The Secretary shall activate the border emergency authority if—
(i) during a period of 7 consecutive calendar days, there is an average of 5,000 or more aliens who are encountered each day; or
(ii) on any 1 calendar day, a combined total of 8,500 or more aliens are encountered.
Notice how this is worded. They are not saying that there’s a limit of 8500 on any given day and no more will be allowed to enter. They are saying Mayorkas will “activate the border emergency authority” if the number is 8500 or more. So there could be 20,000 on a single day.
Weak weak weak.
Where is Tim Scott on this? Is he voting for or against?
The vote on this bill should be your voter guide for every future election. If any Senator votes yes on the bill then do all you can to primary them the next time they are up for re-election.
Correction to my last sentence. If any Senator does not vote ‘no’ then do all you can to primary them at the next available opportunity.
There’s a procedural vote on Wednesday to advance the bill. Only 60 votes is required so it’s going to happen. Apparently 8 GOP Senators are going to vote ‘no’. What about the other 41?? Don’t let any of them vote ‘present’, that’s a self-preserving wimp move. Don’t let them get away with it.
Again, where is Tim Scott on this? Do we need to wait until Wednesday to see how he votes? He’s supposedly a Trump ally now, obviously Trump would want him to vote ‘no’.
Tim Scott is at a rest area pretending to be married. No mercy for NeoCON pos.

Democrat Schumer: Give me money or else your sons will die in war.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) on Monday threatened to send US troops to fight Russia unless Republicans agree to his $100 billion world aid bill currently stalled in Congress.
The Senate’s $118.28 billion national security supplemental package allocates $60 billion in military aid to Ukraine.
Schumer said the first vote on the bill is scheduled for Wednesday.
In the coming days, the Senate must act decisively on this emergency national security supplemental funding.
On Monday, I will take the first procedural step to getting this passed in the Senate with the first vote scheduled for Wednesday. pic.twitter.com/wUQuq7CnJU

Of course, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is on board with this bill.
Only $20.23 billion was allocated to secure the US border amid an unprecedented invasion of military-age males from Africa, the Middle East, Latin America, and China.
Illegals invade Lukeville, AZ port of entry
According to Democrat Senator Patty Murray, the $118.28 billion national security supplemental package includes:
$60.06 billion to support Ukraine as it fights back against Putin’s bloody invasion and protects its people and sovereignty.
$14.1 billion in security assistance for Israel.
$2.44 billion to support operations in the U.S. Central Command and address combat expenditures related to conflict in the Red Sea.
$10 billion in humanitarian assistance to provide food, water, shelter, medical care, and other essential services to civilians in Gaza and the West Bank, Ukraine, and other populations caught in conflict zones across the globe.
$4.83 billion to support key regional partners in the Indo-Pacific and deter aggression by the Chinese government.
$2.33 billion to continue support for Ukrainians displaced by Putin’s war of aggression and other refugees fleeing persecution.
The bipartisan border policy changes negotiated by Senators Chris Murphy (D-CT), Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ), and James Lankford (R-OK).
$20.23 billion to address existing operational needs and expand capabilities at our nation’s borders, resource the new border policies included in the package, and help stop the flow of fentanyl and other narcotics.
The Fentanyl Eradication and Narcotics Deterrence (FEND) Off Fentanyl Act.
$400 million for the Nonprofit Security Grant Program to help nonprofits and places of worship make security enhancements.
Schumer told “Morning Joe’s” Mika Brzezinski that American men will die in war if Republicans don’t agree to his $100 billion bill.
“We’re at a turning point in America. This bill is crucial and history will look back on it and say did America fail itself,” Schumer said.
“If we don’t aid Ukraine, Putin will be walk all over Ukraine, we will lose the war and we could be fighting in eastern Europe and a NATO ally in a few years. Americans won’t like that,” Schumer said.
Ukraine is NOT a member of NATO. Ukraine does not have the protection of US troops.

What’s this ‘we will lose the war‘ nonsense, Chuck? No Ukraine will lose. Or did our Congress declare war on Russia? Nope it did not, but our Congress sure helped to cause the current situation in Ukraine.
And guess what, Chucky, we could actually be fighting a real war anywhere in the world including in America in a few years if you and your war pigs get your way.
I don’t care if Russia walks all over Ukraine! In fact, the sooner Ukraine loses the war the better!!!
I don’t hate Russia or Putin!
Too bad America and Canada to start don’t have a President Vladimir Putin. God Bless him and his Country!!
Does Schumah have an unrevealed Khazarian heritage? He sure acts like he does.
Got to keep that piggy bank open.
Does SCHUMER have the power to send troops anywhere. I thought it was decided by the President and approved by Congress.
Schumer and Blinken tell the Resident of the United States what socks to put on in the morning!
One could only wish that was all they were doing.
The only troops that should be sent are troops to arrest, try, and sentence those who engaged in the 2020 and ongoing communist coup d’etat of our country.

OK, so this might be slightly off topic to some, but I don’t think so—
So let me get this straight–While this “emergency supplemental funding bill” is taking the headlines, might I ask what is the status of the 2024 regular government appropriation bills that are 5 months overdue?
Why are they taking up a supplemental bill when it isn’t supplemental to anything because the regular appropriation bills have not even been voted on or passed?
So they are holding our Constitutional appropriations funding as well as our Constitutional border responsibilities hostage to a supplemental bill to fund foreign affairs and entanglements?
We are indeed living in interesting times.

They shouldn’t be negotiating, in the first place. The Republicans should be demanding that Biden enforce our immigration laws and secure the border, or. he won’t get anymore money…period. Why is that so hard for the the people who supposedly represent us?
I’d like to see a conservative reporter in a q and a setting thank Biden for some conservative benchmark in our history just to watch his response. The guy is not there.
Why is that so hard for the the people who supposedly represent us?
Why is it so hard for voters to recognize traitors and stop voting for them? Mitch McConnell won his 2020 primary with 82% of the votes. He had 6 GOP candidates opposing him. Probably many of these same people who voted for McConnell are bitching and moaning about the current state of the GOP. He’s up for re-election in 2026 and I pray he bows out so we don’t have to suffer another 6 years of him.
One way the RINOS figured out to defend against being primaried, is the “splitter” strategy; ONE candidate running against Mitch might beat him, so he gets 5 other “splitters” to divvy up the anti-mitch vote, so that no one has enough votes to bump him off.
In addition, look how the Dem party helped Mitch last election (they did the same for Lindsey).
They ran a left of Warnock extreme candidate, NOT a Manchin pretend moderate, NOT because the Dems wanted to unseat Mitch or Lindsey, just the opposite.
They knew R base support for them (Mitch/Lindsey) was weak, so they ran these libtard nutjobs so peoplre would “hold their nose” and vote for Mitch/Lindsey because “the Dem is worse!”
Exactly!
Some Republicans are. Speaker Johnson in fact had a list of 63 things that current law allows Biden to do, and supposedly he read that list to Biden in one of their meetings.
The problem is that a large component of the GOP — especially in the Senate — are Uniparty tools and serfs to the Chamber of Commerce.
Here’s a suggestion for the senate. Put out a bill that states it will install a military draft for all males that have entered this country illegally. They will be given a crappy haircut, boots that are too small, a uniform that’s too big, they will be fed lousy food, be given poor training and then shipped off onboard round bottom boats to Ukraine. This bill will cost 60 billion to implement.
Did bills have (propaganda) names before BO? Because the first one I remember is the “Affordable — ha –care act” — can’t remember bills having ANY names, propaganda or otherwise,before that. Just wondering. Because now, of course, they’re all lies.
Just like all you have to do to see if something is fake or not is see if snopes, fact-check, USA-today, etc., list it as “fake” (then it’s true) — all you have to do to know what a bill is about is read the title — whatever it says, it’s the opposite.
It’s been this way, as long as I can remember.
GOP Senator James Lankford helped write the border Invasion Bill.
FWIW, he’s the only man in his family (2 daughters). I’ve seen a pattern where some allegedly Conservative men surrounded by women (James Comey) are overly sympathetic and seem to lack logical thinking.
https://x.com/DC_Draino/status/1754305958703198608?s=20
I think he is genuinely stupid, and also bought off or being blackmailed.
And the other Oklahoma Senator is awful also. He congratulated the Capital Police officer who shot and killed Ashli Babbit.
So, NO men in his family, then?
I’ve noticed that too. And I’ve always thought Lankford seems very feminine. Politicians who are “religious conservatives” typically seem feminine (right wing churches must discourage masculinity or something), but Lankford moreso than most, like he’s a closeted gay maybe.
With “friends” like McConnell, Graham and Lankford who needs enemies! … Is there anyway Kentucky can Recall, Censure or have a Vote of No Confidence on McConnell … At least Schumer stabs us in the chest, McConnell stabs us in the Back :/
The most that can be done, is the Kentucky Republican Party could CENSURE McConnell, ….the ALASKA R Party already has.
That is the equivalent of a vote of no confidence; it has no legal ramifications, no consequences other than an expression of displeasure.
Unfortunately, so long as the Kentucky State R Party is controlled by RINOS, its not going to happen.
Thank you Dutch
Before the 17th Amendment, as intended by the Founders, States appointed Senators in what ever manner they saw fit and could recall Senators however they saw fit.
The Senate border bill is unconstitutional. Chuck Schumer and Mitch McConnell are knowingly and willfully violating the constitution.
•Article 1 section 7 clause 1 clearly states:
“All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other Bills.”
The way they get around this Constitutional roadblock is that they take another bill that was sent over to them by the House, and basically COMPLETELY rewrite it to make it do what they want to do.
If memory serves — and I’m sure a couple Treepers can check for me — the “root” bill they are using here is a VA funding bill from last session.
All that comes of Congress is unconstitutional as were the elections that placed them there.
Lankford was employed at a large Baptist youth camp for ten years. Over the years there have been sexual assaults there, one involving a thirteen year old victim and an older attacker.
During a deposition over this attack, Lankford was asked if a thirteen year old is capable of giving consent. He said yes. He was even asked the question again and answered ‘yes” again.
Lankford was either lying or is so stupid he did not understand that legally, not just morally, a thirteen year old is deemed to be unable to consent to sexual relations with someone who is legally an adult.
Oklahoma GOP voters were already less than thrilled with Lankford. I was a voting delegate twice to the OK GOP convention. The first year, Lankford had a coffee and donuts reception in a room in the convention center. Apparently he got an earful from disgruntled constituents. He was scheduled to give remarks during the convention, but instead said the opening prayer then fled. The following year he didn’t even show up.
Perhaps he can become a lobbyist. His career as a Senator is over at the next election.
Lankford could enjoy a cushy pay package in a leadership position at any of the NGOs involved in the ongoing migrant sex and drug trade.
Odd one that Lankford.
Like many here we try to look for nuances.
Since I first laid eyes on Lankford he always appeared to me to be I’ll at ease, and guilty of something really sleazy.
Now here we are years later and he is showing his true colours to the world.
Cheers!
So if your an immigrant who came illegally what are you doing right now. Your making babies quick as you can. Why you can’t afford them nor afford rent anywhere in CA and many other states. But if you pump out kids you become a citizen with an anchor baby. You get so many goodies and welfare it’s crazy. Yep your GOP speaker just voted to give them billions more with tax credits. You will go broke soon it’s called Cloward and Piven. Obama taught it in his classes. So 12 million in a couple years will be 30 million and welfare recipients for 18 more years. You can boot them out… So now what…
illegals can be removed in short order because their presence here without papers is prima facia evidence of their immigration crime. Any humane parent would bring their babies home with them
And apparently ‘dead on arrival’. What won’t demoKKKrats do to steal an election?
Wrong thread. Sorry
Comrade Schumer, who for many years duped his constituents into believing he was a moderate, sees the moment to bust our borders wide open and allow a never ending ocean of humanity to flood our country until they entire country collapses under a never ending sea of invaders.
How are we to trust a government that works against the security and interests of its citizens, putting the needs of illegal invaders above those of the inhabitants of that country. Making those who work and pay taxes to that said government pay for illegal invaders to live in their country?
These numbers they have arrived at are a joke, they mean nothing? How will they enforce these arbitrary numbers they have pulled out of thin air? Once they pass this bill, the sea of humans flooding our border will increase exponentially because they will know that these tyrants have legalized illegality!
The solution to illegal immigration is not to make it legal!!!

@DC_Draino
Friendly reminder that Trump “made a deal w/Mexico” to seal the border (which largely worked) because backstabbing RINOs in the House & Senate wouldn’t support funding for a full border wall
Those same backstabbers who stopped Trump’s wall are now supporting the open border bill
Yep! One could say…at least they’re consistent….consistently on the wrong side of every major economic issue.
I think we all owe a big debt of gratitude, to Nikki and the Senate Republicons, for endeavoring so assiduously to consistently reinforce to all of us, how much they facillitate and advance the Globullust agenda, that some mistakenly think of as a “Democrat” agenda.
Actually, after so many years of Republicon abuse, you would think there wouldn’t be any “conservative” or R leaning people left, who hadn’t figured out the Uniparty ruse.
But then, just scroll thru the comments here, and it won’t take much effort to find comments decrying the DEMOCRATS, as stealing elections, importing invaders or otherwise destroying our Republic, and ignoring/neglecting to recognise Republicants for the vital role they play, in such endeavors.
Hence, we obviously still need the Senate Republican leadership to put up stupid legislation like this, just to educate the dumb as a sack of rocks Republican voters, who still are stuck on stupid, and the notion that American politics is about D vs R, and so vote for the RINO, cause the Dem is worse (yeah, right! sarc!)
Dutchman, it is/has always been true that while your enemy is dangerous, they are no way near as dangerous as the one that has a hand on your shoulder, telling you that they are your friend, while holding a shiv . Meet our current Republican Party (with a handful of exceptions.)
Oh the Democrats have wanted this agenda for at least a decade, but especially when they realized – after Trump’s 2016 win – it was the ONLY path to their gaining a permanent majority in federal government.
I don’t pretend to know the GOP’s historical long term position on illegal immigration but I do recognize that they’ve never appeared to have been staunch supporters of fully enforcing the existing immigration laws.
For many years I bought that Dems wanted votes, and Reps (donors) wanted cheap labor,…and that was the motivation for the intentionally broken system.
But the shear #’s, the nature of the operation, the recent revelations of Darian gap activity, etc. cause me to see this recent immigration invasion as being fundamentally DIFFERENT from what we were seeing.
Its an invasion, to destroy our country.
By who? And why? Who thinks they benefit?
I agree it’s an invasion.
The disproportionately large numbers of single, young, military-aged males should be a huge red flag for patriot nationalists, and the identification of Chinese men meeting this description ought to have news reporters flocking to that area to photograph and widely publicize that demographic while simultaneously asking questions as to why they are there alone, and what are their intentions in the U.S.
My guess is the Globullusts are taking advantage of the Uniparty RINO’s corrupt desire to allow in millions of cheap laborers, while many of the Uniparty morons in DC stupidly aren’t realizing they’ve invited in an enemy army. However if they DO know what they’ve essentially invited here, and are not going to stop it, then our government is gone farther down the drain than maybe we’ve realized.
The Democrats are pretty clear what they want and have wanted for a decade – tidal waves of illegal immigrants to boost their voting base numbers, increase the number of House Reps they can have, and put them in a permanent majority across the board.
It’s people like my mother who watch Fox and don’t look for information elsewhere. Way back she thought Kristi Noem had helped seal the border because she sent National Guard troops. Yes, to assist illegals in entering the country and then getting released. Abbott finally had to act I guess.
We’re screwed.
Those are the only 2 words I can come up with.
Well said, succint and accurate.

Interesting context: The $60 billion in Ukraine assistance in the Senate deal is larger than the entire budget the U.S. Marine Corps requested for fiscal year 2024 – which was $53 billion.

That’s cause the extra $7 billion is for the senate parasites’ pockets.

@LauraLoomer
Can we talk about how the new Senate Border Bill just quietly allocates $39 million for @JoeBiden?
For what, exactly? 🙃
Happy Birthday, Hunter, I suppose.
Cont….
Translation: $39 bil more for Money Laundering Kickbacks and Hamas.
I wonder what that refers to. Does anyone know?
What happens if the bill becomes law is that the money goes to Ukraine and Biden ignores the rest of the law.
Right, because we already know that he and his Dept of Injustice do everything by the book. sarc/
The opening THEY are giving to PDJT, to ignore enforcing laws is immence.
As a regular poster is fond of pointing out, any law which is UNCONSTITUTIONAL, is invalid on its face, and the POTUS does not need the SCOTUS to rule in order to ignore it, au contraire he has taken an oathe to faithfully execute ONLY those laws which are Constitutional.
So, the Border Patrol Union now says that the Senate Immigration Bill is a good deal.
We are in for a very messy civil war, folks.

All the tax dollar’s wasted by these crooks who ignore current law is mind numbing.
The amount of paper wasted to print their empty words, ink for copy machines etc, all the food they eat so they can sit in Congress pretending to be important, the tax dollars wasted so they can fly around the country pretending to be important.
They should all be jailed for ignoring current laws on the books. They took an oath and pledged to follow them!!
Puke on all of these traitors.
Nothing pleases a tyrant more than forcing the people to pay for their own gallows.

No one cares until it’s their ox being gored.
“Border Hawk Al Sharpton…” 😂🤣😂🤣😂. Is this a Babylon Bee headline?
Well of course it is, they want open borders.
If they can’t have unlimited numbers they’re okay with 5,000 illegals a day coming into the country, that’s 1.8 million illegal a year coming into the country.
This is not good for Americans for America.
The border has long been a red herring.
Take away the honey pot, the bears go home.
Wouldn’t want to have illegals on a jury anyway.
The only thing we should be giving these invaders is hot lead at 700 rounds per minute.
Texas Sheriff Jim Skinner Plays Video of Dallas Area Deputy in a Shoot Out with Cartel Driver Near Dallas – SHOCKING FOOTAGE
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/02/texas-sheriff-jim-skinner-plays-video-dallas-area/
Deputy did excellent. His body armor stopped the chest shot. Getting shot in the hand didn’t stop him from returning fire. Someone in the suspect vehicle was firing through the rear window multiple times.
Cartel members are often from Mexico’s elite military units or are civilians trained by those rogue military members. Both are dangerous gunfighters to the uninitiated. The deputy would’ve been better served with a suppressed 11.5″ barrel M4 set on AUTO and a 100 round Beta (brand mfgr) magazine. Problem with that weaponry is overshot rounds on a public highway would’ve likely wounded or killed innocents.
Anyone illegally crossing and armed should be a legitimate target under ROE of war; which this infiltration certainly is. No need for machine guns, either. High level thermal night scopes with suppressed bolt rifles would suffice. Or quality SASS rifles from, say, Knight’s Armament, with quality suppressors.
The moral disintegration of seeing teammates and comrades taken out by virtually silent head or heart shots can’t be over emphasized. Unless one’s under orders and under guns to achieve a strategic objective (take that farmhouse, or take that radio tower), the motivation to continue when you realize you could be next to the silent sniper out there, frazzles and the only thing you want to do is get the hell out of there.
They keep referring to that “bill” as dead on arrival….that doesn’t just apply to the “bill”….
Mike Lee spoke out strongly against this, in a way I haven’t seen senators denounce McConnell. Called for new leadership even. Maybe a sign that McConnell isn’t as powerful as he once was.
Yawn…. most likely he’s using verbal words vs writing the strong words on paper to lull you into believing he’s “working for you.”
he’s working diligently for me Catherine, who’s your senator?
Steve Bannon just reported that it is being reported that Sen Wicker …coming out of a
meeting with Mitch McConnell…said “this border deal is dead”.
‘Markets Are Now Anchoring On Potential Trump Victory’ – Ex-Soros CIO Says “All Pullbacks Should Be Bought”
“We are expecting an upward trajectory in the US equity markets,” wrote Scott Bessent, a former Soros Fund Management investing chief as he bets on a “Trump rally”.
“Barring Biden pulling ahead in substantial fashion, all pullbacks should be bought.”
Bessent’s bet appears well based as the polls (averaged by Real Clear Politics), Trump has a solid lead over Biden.
From Bloomberg:
“Markets are now anchoring on the potential market-friendly policies of a Trump victory on Nov. 5,” Bessent wrote Wednesday to investors in his Key Square Capital Management macro fund.
And he is right, as we detailed previously, 2024 Republican Policy Pair basket (full details here) has tracked Trump’s victory odds since late 2022… notably tracking very tightly with the recent surge in Trump’s odds…
Finally, Trump’s success in the polls is also influencing policymakers, according to Bessent. The Biden administration is inclined to “keep the economy buoyant, provide ample liquidity, contain interest rates” and avoid blowups such as the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank last year, he wrote.
Bessent also pointed to Fed Chair Jay Powell’s “dovish pivot” in December when he signaled rate cuts were ahead rather than more hikes.
“While we don’t think the Fed is an explicitly political institution, we think nearly all of Washington, DC is united in wanting to prevent the return of Donald Trump,” he wrote.
As Bloomberg reports, the hedge fund manager pushed back against the notion that another Trump administration would sow chaos, and that the former president would use his second term to seek revenge.
If re-elected, it’s likely that Trump “would seek redemption.”

So Joe. Whatcha buyin? Paypal? AMD? TTD? ANET? OKTA? (All recent Fool recommendations). I think we’ll ses 2-6 months of downtrend across the board. What say you?
I think that this point in the post is 100% correct:
“While we don’t think the Fed is an explicitly political institution, we think nearly all of Washington, DC is united in wanting to prevent the return of Donald Trump,” he wrote.”
So, the Federal Reserve will drastically cut rates and Wall Street, the BLS and the news media will do whatever it takes to make the economy and stock market look great for Biden…all while saving they won’t!
If Alejandro Mayorkas is for it, everyone here is against it.
Hey , that’s not right, his family is jewish and part of the holocaust.
He is off limits and maybe will get some reparations money
while our country is taken over.
🤬🤬🤬
They hate America and they hate us. They’ve sold us out for money and power.
This bill has nothing to do with “securing the border, its about “fixing” the border, aka rigging. Its for the purpose of keeping power, changing the population dynamics, aka ending “white supremacy which really mean ending the white majority of citizens. The senate sees money in them thar hills.
The Border Patrol Union has endorsed the bill. Broke ties with Trump on this issue.
Wonder who got to who.
What did Mayorkas threaten them with?
They know this bill won’t pass the House, so they can blame PDJT because it’ll be his fault the “bipartisan bill supported by the Border Patrol” didn’t pass and illegals are running wild in their blue cities.
