Republican Establishment to Block Border Security Once Again
Big League Politics ^ | March 14, 2019 | Jonathon A Moseley

Posted on 03/14/2019 12:08:08 PM PDT by Moseley

Republicans in Name Only say they will vote with the Democrats in the U.S. Senate Thursday to block President Donald Trump’s plans to build a border wall. Almost-Republican Senators Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Thom Tillis of North Carolina, and even Kentucky’s quixotic Rand Paul have already pre-announced their plans to vote with the Democrats against President Trump.

This author’s news analysis here as opinion after more than 30 years in conservative politics is the author’s opinion and not necessarily that of everyone at Big Leage Politics.

Once again border security will be blocked by the D.C. Swamp and the flood of illegal immigration will keep pouring across the country’s borders. This charade of the Republican establishment lying to the American people goes back at least to the 1986 Simpson-Mazzoli scam that the Democrats pulled on President Ronald Reagan (with lots of help from liberal George H.W. Bush).

Trump says he will veto the resolution. But as a lawyer experienced in this level of governmental case — without wanting to draw a map for enemies of our nation’s sovereignty — Thursday’s vote will severely damage Trump’s prospects of winning the lawsuits already filed. So Trump can veto the resolution. But congressional opposition may cost us the lawsuits so that the border wall will never get built. This is not a harmless gesture. This will cause severe harm in the litigation.

For decades, Republicans have always insisted that they support securing our country’s international borders — but just not today. It is never the right time or circumstance to secure our borders. But trust them: Someday, somewhere they will secure the border. Listen to what they say, don’t look at what they do.

The pattern has been that the establishment suckers the voters with promises. For decades, the border security never happens while they push amnesty on the country. Once voted in to office, quasi-Republicans break their promises. Liberal establishment Republicans are now once again going to keep the borders open.

We should never forget that in 2006 the Congress passed a law mandating the building of a border wall along the entire stretch of both the Northern and Southern borders, from sea to sea, as well as operational control of the maritime borders. The Secure Fence Act of 2006 is the law of the land. Under the Secure Fence Act, it is mandatory — not discretionary — that the government take complete “operational control” of all of the borders. That is the law passed by Congress and signed by President George W. Bush. The Secure Fence Act and a 2007 amendment led by Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchinson (RINO-TX) allows and requires the Department of Homeland Security to decide what kind of barriers are best for each section of the border. But it is mandatory that the barriers must prevent “all” unauthorized entry into the country.

So why hasn’t the border wall mandated by the Secure Fence Act of 2006 been completed? Because Republicans and Democrats keep lying to the voters.

But it is mandatory that the barriers must prevent “all” unauthorized entry into the country.

So why hasn’t the border wall mandated by the Secure Fence Act of 2006 been completed? Because Republicans and Democrats keep lying to the voters.

In 2018, almost-Republican U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (RINO-Kentucky), also known as the Swamp King with an “F” 36% rating from Conservative Review, and then Almost-Republican Speaker of the House Paul Ryan (RINO-Wisconsin) promised President Trump and the American people that the then Republican-controlled Congress would pass funding for the border wall. Then they promised that they would pass the funding for a border wall after the 2018 mid-term election, before the Democrats took over in the U.S. House. As Trump told The Daily Caller:

“Well, I was going to veto the omnibus bill and Paul told me in the strongest of language, ‘Please don’t do that. We’ll get you the wall.’ And I said, ‘I hope you mean that, because I don’t like this bill,”‘ Mr. Trump said. “Paul told me in the strongest of terms that, ‘Please sign this and if you sign this we will get you that wall.’ Which is desperately needed by our country. Humanitarian crisis, trafficking, drugs, you know, everything — people, criminals, gangs, so, you know, we need the wall.”

The president signed the $1.3 trillion spending bill in March to avoid a government shutdown. Hours later, he voiced regrets.

“I will never sign another bill like this again,” Mr. Trump said at the time. “I’m not going to do it again. Nobody read it. It’s only hours old.”

It’s always been about changing the demographics of the country & replacing the current population. It’s that simple.

It’s more important to this elite cabal than any other policy.

I wonder if Ann Coulter will lambaste her former favorite Mittens Romney for voting against Trump on this.

We need people to stop voting for these people because they have a country twang, pose with a gun in a photo, or make bible quotes. They dont get elected on their own, there are a lot of rubes in those states that dont care! Most of those RINO bastards should have NEVER been able to BS their way into supporting this.

And I’ll bet the people in those states wont move their ass one inch to get in their face about it when they visit.

Not a dime to the Republican Party. Money given to the party is distributed to these people for their campaigns. Let these rinos get their allowance from the democrats.

“....stop voting for these people because they have a country twang, ....”

Jay Rockefeller always did this in WV. He’d make his election year visits to Charleston. Show up in a flannel shirt get his picture taken for the papers & TV. Do a local TV interview affecting a WV twang (With a NY accent yet!) demonstrating he’s just like the simple hill folks.

It always worked!

THE biggest problem in this country right now is not immigration. It is the Rat/RINO Uniparty of treason that doesn’t represent the people but a plutocracy. Everything they do is for one purpose only: To make their masters money. Our party has been stolen from us.
