If they weren’t so dysfunctional themselves, dems would have been smart to vote in mass FOR this bill, just to attempt to create distrust amongst President Trumps base. But alas, another lost opportunity, hehe.

The hardliner bill got 192 votes, and this piece of garbage got 121? And stupid Ryan brought it up for a vote.

You know Ryan must have known it was going to fail. Ryan is swamp IMO, but it makes me wonder what his rationale really was...I have to get crazy creative to come up with a reason.

And Mitch needs to get rid of the filibuster so that it can pass the Senate.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Nothing good will come out of the Senate until the Cheap Labor Express stooges are replaced.

Flake, Corker, Hatch, Heller, Alexander, Graham, McCain, Murkowsky, Hoeven, Rubio, Tillis, Burr, Lankford, Gardner, Cornyn, Hyde-Smith, Collins, Sasse, Kennedy, Shelby, Ernst, Blunt, McConnell, Wicker, Portman, Isakson, Johnson, Toomey, Rounds, Capito, Thune, Gaines, Barasso and Enzi are all Bush League Republicans hell bent on making America into North Mexico.

Under the Obama Doctrine, now that Congress has failed to act, Trump can use his pen and phone to resolve the situation himself.

The vote was 301-121, with nearly half of Republicans opposing the measure.

You listed 34 Senators in there. Wouldn’t it be quicker to tell us who you support?

Also, I don’t think the two Senators from Wyoming belong in that group.

If we lose Wyoming, we’ve lost the nation. 🇺🇸

Uh, the mods took e-verify out at last minute to get the mod vote and conservatives demanded it be left in so we know who is getting jobs they shouldn’t get!

What’s so “depressing” about that?

There are currently just FOUR Senators that side with the citizens and the rule of law.
Cotton, Grassley, Cruz and Perdue.

I really do wish there were more, but there are not.
Pretending they are on our side while they continue to keep the borders open and the laws unenforced is how we got 30 million illegal aliens.
We need new GOP Senators.

You have to accept amnesty applicants from non-contiguous states at the border. You can’t keep kids with their family. The EO will not stand up against a consent decree ratified in Congress and signed by POTUS in ‘97. Why NOT process amnesty applicants at the US embassy in their home country. You could have an administrative judge and a public attorney in each embassy or consulate, and do any appeals via e-mail to the States. It is insane to encourage people to brave the Mexican dessert or the high seas of the Caribbean just to make an amnesty application that could be more readily investigated inside the country of origin with the aid of diplomats’ clout protecting the investigators.

The law sucks, and has only lasted so long because until Trump nobody seriously tried to abide by it. Now the secret’s out. It sucks. It must be replaced. But nobody replaces it, either out of cowardice or fecklessness or both.

Uh BS. This was Lyin Ryan’s DACA Amnesty bill. His attempted payback to the Chamber of Commies for funding his political career.

Immigration reform isn’t going to happen until after the midterms...

How the midterms turn out will dictate what will happen.

If Dems win, or gain significantly in the house, NOTHING will happen.

If R’s win big, you will see the political needle move, and something will likely happen

I have to disagree.

Granted, perhaps we have low expectations, but on a great three day period where the travel ban was upheld, the Janus landmark decision came down, and Leftist Justice Kennedy retired, this is EXACTLY the kind of turd in a punchbowl thing we have come to expect.

It didn’t get passed...this is a good thing.

Thank you for your considered response.

At this point, I’ll settle for 60 Republican senators AND President Trump to continue through to 2025.

2nd piece of good news today; after Kennedy’s retirement.

Now speaker Ryan, since you are toast, will you finally not wait and resign now??

5. End “birthright” citizenship, the illegal alien’s winning lottery ticket to get on the U.S. gravy train.
