Ingraham asked Yoho if Boehner has pledged to replace the continuing resolution when it expires with a proposal by Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., which would take advantage of Congress’ ability to block funding of Obama’s immigration action.

“We haven’t gone that far,” he said. “What we’re dealing with is crisis management up here, over and over again. [Work authorizations] are self-funding through the fees and things like that they collect. We can’t shut off funds until we get into appropriations process and rewrite those bills.”
Ingraham argued the Congressional Research Service reported that last year’s omnibus spending bill included 16 funding restrictions on fee-based programs.
“So you can cut off the money to the fee-based programs. We did it last year. So Boehner is trying to cook up, ‘Well, we can’t do this because it’s funded.’ Oh bull! He doesn’t want to do it because he wants this immigration amnesty because the Chamber of Commerce wants it, the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce wants it and every big fat-cat donor of the Republican Party wants it,” the talk host said.
“That is the truth, and if more Republicans had the guts to say that on Capitol Hill, you wouldn’t win by one percentage point, which you won by last time, or the first time, you’d win by 20 points or you wouldn’t be challenged like Jeff Sessions,” said Ingraham.
She further asked why Senate Majority Leader Reid, a Democrat, supports Yoho’s bill.

She insisted it’s a matter of trust because “in the end, Boehner really wants what Jeb Bush really wants, which is comprehensive immigration reform, which is concurrent amnesty with bogus promise of enforcement.”
The entire GOP base has been played by Boehner. He needs to be replaced.
They’ve turned into the Republicant party.
Apparently, to be a “leader” in today’s GOP, you have to be more gruberish than Gruber.
Who couldn’t see this ooming????
Laura needs to run for congress. She has an overwhelming advantage with her microphone.
Good for Laura Ingrham.
Unfortunately, it is only a media outlet like WND that is covering these immigration arguments. The establishment GOP media like NRO, is letting itself be distracted by grand jury decision, while Boehner and the GOP skate once again. If only NRO, Hot Air, Fox News, etc., called on GOP House Members to ditch John Boehner, things would change. Unfortunately, popular and powerful GOP media arms prop up Boehner and McConnell, and might just do so until the these guys are 90 years old.
It is time to saturate these media outlets with phone calls and mailed letters telling them to call on Boehner to step down as Speaker. They don’t read the comment boxes on their websites, you have to do it the old fashion way.
Why would the GOPe vote to defund an action that they support?
It has for years and still is the American people who are being played by the DC establishment.
Face it folks, we got played by the GOPe. We’re gonna have to go third party. It will be painful, but GOPe must go the way of the Whigs.
“Congressman, I like you, but I’m going to say it … you’re being played here.”...........
All of us are being “played” by Boehner and we should put extreme heat on our individual representatives to NOT support him as the incoming Congressional leader. Instead of “leading”, he has become a traitor.
