Senate Bill Released: It Prevents Trump from Closing the Border
Independent Sentinel ^ | February 4, 2024 | By M Dowling

Posted on 02/05/2024 11:04:37 AM PST by Red Badger

A trio of senators on Sunday released a bipartisan immigration agreement with the White House that would give the president far-reaching powers to clamp down on unlawful border crossings, including the authority to turn away migrants without allowing them to request asylum.

The President always had the power. That’s the first lie.

Saying the President pivoted is the next lie. It’s an appearance of a pivot to get funding for foreign nations while giving very little to the USA. It’s also throwing a lifeline to Joe Biden to help him get elected.

CBS claims it restricts the asylum system.

It gives huge sums to Ukraine, Taiwan, and Israel while giving a relatively small amount of funds to the border. A great deal of money was provided to the military and the war machine.

This bill will supersede immigration laws and codify 5,000 – 8,5000 illegal aliens a day for 7 days before anything kicks in. The bill legalizes illegal immigration to 1.5 million+ a year. And, Biden can overturn it.

It locks in green card giveaways through 2030.

CBS also claims that the deal brokered by the White House would be one of the toughest border and immigration laws in modern history and would not legalize any of the estimated 11 million immigrants living in the U.S. without permission, an element of comprehensive immigration reform long championed by Democratic lawmakers.

There are millions of dollars for Homeland Security and HHS for refugee assistance in the form of grants and awards that will undoubtedly go to far-left groups to facilitate open borders.

Turtle (R-Chamber of Commerce) and Lankford (RINO-Oklahoma) are upset that we don’t like it. “But the Chamber is for this deal.”

Here is the scam: every illegal alien counts in the census, no matter what happens after, so the 30 million illegals have added 40 or 50 U.S. House of Representatives. It doesn’t matter about final disposition in future elections, at least for ten years.

The amazing thing is that the Republicans haven’t caved yet.

Maybe they are coming around to the realization that they could get a lot done
for the nation if they’d simply play ball.

“any of the estimated 11 million immigrants”

Hilarious

That was the number 25 years ago

More like 35-40 million now

They know that if trump wins he won’t be able to do a damn thing if this garbage passes that’s why they created this bill to hurt trump to remove his one campaign promise

Republicans never “cave”. They collaborate.

Do you think any Democrat Senators might be convinced to vote against this, besides Joe Manchin?

It's objectively a terrible bill, that will do terrible things to America. I know a lot of Democrats appear to hate America and want to destroy it, but *all* of them?

Here are the 10 most conservative Democratic senators (based on voting records as calculated here, plus the guy who had a stroke and came back different than he was:

We should call ALL Republicans Senators who haven't already publically denounced this legislation, and these 11 Dems.

Treasonous bastards. Every MSM outlet pushing the bi-partisan angle and Biden’s willingness to “take action on the border”. It is a nauseating screw job and a Biden rescue op. These rino traitors should be taken to the nearest tree and hanged.

House leadership would be wise to not put this to a vote, even if the intent is to ‘go on record with a no vote’. Too much influence and corruption, call is DOA, and move on with something more useful- IMPEACHMENT.

Do it now.

They are sill using that same ridiculous estimate of 11 million illegals living in the United States that they have been using since the Clinton Administration in 1996?

What amazing chutzpah - Biden has let in 8 million in the last 3 years alone.

And the Mexican President just admitted that there are 40 million illegal alien Mexicans in the US sending money home.

We are being scammed

If Speaker Johnson puts it up for vote it will pass.

Sometimes, land has to be cleared before new construction can begin. It’s become evident that the termite-riddled GOP no longer has the structural integrity to stand on its own. It is the foremost duty of patriots to vote out these villains who repeatedly advance destructive legislation in our names, even before acting to oppose the Marxists in the other party.

After hearing him out on TV this morning, me thinks Lankford is a bald-faced liar.

They are counted in the census, but they don’t add to the total number of Representatives. They do add to the number of Reps. a state gets.
