Related-- some on the Board have contested that Ted Cruz's amendment to the Gang of Eight Amnesty Bill regarding citizenship was not a "poison pill"-- The evidence that it was is that both Jeff Sessions and Mike Lee, (obviously opposed to legalizing illegals) voted FOR it.

Amazing!

McConnell leading from behind!!!!!

[drypowder]

how likely is it that any immigration legislation coming from the Senate under the gobbler's leadership will be in America's favor? imho, not a chance

[whinecountry]

So the Houston Chronicle considers a bill that might prevent future Kate Steinle-type murders to be a “hard-line” immigration bill. Got it.

The Gang of 8 bill passed the Senate easily 68 to 32, picking up all Democrats and 14 Republicans. . The amendment never had a chance. Purely symbolic. It is time we stop this process charade.

I’m sensing desperation from the Uniparty. This may be their attempt to make it look like they are doing something about dhimmigration in order to dilute or defuse the Trump/Cruz message.

A number of the folks who are doing the “contesting” are doing it as part of their anti-Cruz jihad.

O’Reilly and FNC are putting heat on McConnell to have an up/down vote on Kates Law, BOR has sworn many times he will not relent until the vote happens. So McConnell will give him what he wants, and if by some miracle it passes he knows Obama will veto it and embarrass Cruz in the process.

[Jane Long]

Will McConnell attach it to another sinker bill, like last time? Knowing it won’t have a snowball’s chance in you know where? Hopefully not.

The proof is in the pudding. All I could find on this were “anonymous sources”, so not sure what tricks Midge might pull, this time.

Thank goodness Trump, O’Reilly (credit where it’s due) and Cruz brought this to the forefront. Let’s see what Midge can do.

It doesn’t matter what McConnell does now, he needs to go. He’s a liar and schemer, and a tool of the US Chamber of Commerce.

What McConnell joined in with in Mississippi last year is unforgivable. He should be prosecuted for his role in the fraud committed.

And the 28 million that he has amassed while in office should be clawed back before he’s removed from Congress without pay or pension.

He can raise turkeys in Kentucky or sit on a porch and wait for his social security check.
