Mitch McConnell Lobbies Republican Senators to Pass Secret Migration Bill
Breitbart ^ | 01/24/2024 | NEIL MUNRO

Posted on 01/24/2024 5:58:37 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Republican Senate leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) is quietly pressuring GOP Senators to promise their support for his border bill before it is released to the public for debate.

Multiple media reports say the still-secret bill is largely complete. But its release has been delayed until McConnell can lock in at least 20 of the 49 GOP Senators, perhaps by making minor changes.

The draft bill is also being reviewed by the Senate’s Committee on Appropriations because the Biden administration wants roughly $15 billion to operate its migration program in 2024. The money is needed by Democrats to process, transport, feed, house, and hide arriving 2024 migrants –and the 6.2 million migrants already admitted— during the run-up to the 2024 election.

The sooner this little talking turd reaches room temp, the better. Please don’t place any remains in this country, since he (or rather, IT) does not love it. Eff him, his family, his house insects, and everything associated with him (it).

Dems will take the money and use it to allow more in and feed and house. They will not stem the flow.

He wants his Amnesty bill while a Democrat is still president.

I'd wait before condemning him on this. He wants our border taken care of first and supported H.R.2 100%.

I'll take a wait and see.

Migrate the illegals to Ukraine. 2nd choice would be Gitmo.

Voters are watching who votes how on this, as you are trying to cut the voters out of the process by making this secret. Shame on you for even trying this.

Oh, really? Function is what structure does. In what respect does McConnell not "represent Republicans" when he's the GOP's Senate leader, hmm?

At this point, the Republican party itself, not any particular person within it with which you may take issue, is the problem. Institutionally, the GOP has no interest whatsoever in making America great again. None.

I know that it is difficult for some around here to accept. But it true nonetheless.

McConnell is a demon and the Republican caucus still has him as their leader.

I have a feeling this one will be bad for us. But the good voters of Kentucky elected him. So what can go wrong?

If that were true Mitch would have fully funded Trump’s Border Wall in his first term. Instead he along with Paul Ryan withheld the money forcing Trump to scrape up funds elsewhere.
