Does the bill REALLY do what Lankford says it does?“

No. Biden will ignore anything good in it. Any money for border enforcement will go to process and send illegals all over the country. Not one dime will go to slow the invasion. Lankford is a traitor and this is a rescue Biden bill.

This bill focuses on getting us to zero illegal crossings a day.

Yer ass. It could be done in one day.

Stop yanking my chain.

Lankford will do anything for Joe Biden.

Like McCarthy and McConnell.

This bill designed to be attached to a big spending bill for Ukraine was designed to Bamboozle the Republican Voters.

It changes our asylum process so that people get a fast asylum screening at a higher standard, and then get returned back to their home country.

Why do we even need asylum screening at the southern border?

Are there wars in South America that we don't know about? Are there Central America dictators who are mass killing their citizens that we don't know about?

They are NOT idiots. They know exactly what they’re doing.

“It could be done in one day.”

No kidding. 1,800 miles of concertina wire and an armed force with “shoot to kill” orders would stop it immediately.

I’d really like to see 24/7 Warthog sorties along the border. A few BBbbbrrrrappps from the A10s would send a message.

The deal allows 5000 a day....It should be “0”.

Lankford won reelecton in 2022, so now he is screwing over his constituents with the expectation that they will all forget his treachery in 2028. The U.S. Senate is a den of vipers which needs reform. IMHO, the term for a U.S. Senator should be reduce to four years. A six year term allows this kind of betrayal.

Typical Washington B S. All that’s necessary is to actually enforce the laws already on the books. They don’t like that because it doesn’t allow additional spending of money we don’t have. Have you noticed, every new problem Washington creates requires new laws and new spending? It’s the spending they’re focused on, not solving any problem. Corruption follows money as night follows day.

“It would be absolutely absurd for me to agree to 5,000 people a day. This bill focuses on getting us to zero illegal crossings a day.”


Haven’t read the proposed bill, but I detect weasel-words In the above quote. We can cut illegal crossings to zero by simply declaring them to be legal. Five thousand per day comes to close to 2 million per year. Do we want or need that many new people coming in? And should the American people have a say in the matter?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

excerpt: comparison that shows lankford is up to his gills in DS/Rino faction (aka mcturdle butt boy):

Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) said, “This bill normalizes 5,000 people coming in a day.”

Lankford said, “Right now these internet rumors is all the people are running on. It would be absolutely absurd for me to agree to 5,000 people a day.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

deal allows brandon to legally admit 5000/day or doing the math:

(5,000*365)= 1,825,000 per year.

We do not need a border deal to secure the border.

The government does not need more money to do it.

Everything is place and it simply needs to be enforced as it should be.

And buying every illegal a one way ticket to their country of origin is far cheaper than giving them all the handouts they are demanding.
