Murphy says GOP voted against border bill to keep border ‘chaotic,’ help Trump campaign
The Hill ^ | 02/11/2024 | Nick Robertson

Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) hit the GOP over the tanked bipartisan Senate border bill on Sunday, claiming House Republicans decided to kill the bill in order to help former President Trump win the 2024 election.

The sweeping border security and asylum overhaul bill initially had strong bipartisan support in the Senate last week, but it fell apart after Trump and the House GOP went against it. Murphy said in a CBS “Face the Nation” interview that Republicans didn’t want to hand Biden a win by passing it.

A complete, lie... we need no additional laws to protect our border. Our country is being invaded because the 2020 election was rigged and we have a bunch of psychopaths and pedophiles running the country.

I knew they were going to do that when they named a foreign aid bill “the border protection act” and threw in a bit of spending for processing more illegals

A) False.

B) Even if true, so what.

I wish they would put three D’s by every Democrat’s name because they’re all deranged, dangerous and destructive.

How could we “keep” it chaotic if Biden wasn’t screwing it up for over 3 years?

Section 212(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act

“Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.”

So, right now, there is a law on the books that Biden can use to immediately suspend the illegals coming across our border. We don’t need any new law superseding existing law, Senators.

Asking Congress to pass a new law is an attempt to shift blame away from himself for the border disaster.

If Joe can’t understand a single sentence, then asking Joe to understand a 390-page bill would obviously be too much.

Nothing RATS propose, and Rinos support, has ever fixed anything.

Yes - Trump created this mess and wants it to continue. That’s the narrative.

Never mind had Biden just left things as they were when he took office, it would not be like this...it had been stabilized and getting more stable as the fencing / wall was being built and the asylum policies and agreements reached with Mexico. And Biden could simply reinstitute these policies without any votes from Congress.

Another in an endless series of outrageous lies from the Democrats.
