WASHINGTON — South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham confirmed Thursday he is in the process of reaching out to former “Gang of Eight” members to help him craft legislation that would protect immigrants who illegally entered the country as children from deportation.

Graham and other Gang of Eight members — Arizona Republican Sen. John McCain, Arizona Republican Sen. Jeff Flake, Florida Republican Sen. Marco Rubio, New York Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer, Illinois Sen. Dick Durbin, New Jersey Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez, and Colorado Democratic Sen. Michael Bennet — crafted immigration legislation in 2013 that passed the Senate but was never taken up for a vote in the House.

But what about the 70% of the total “children” that are not actually children?

A lot of these aren’t kids. They are 20-something. Trump won on immigration in the primary and general election!

Arizona voters sending McCain back to the Senate seems to have really emboldened these two. Of course, they do get extra media attention because they spend most of their time attacking conservative ideas.

Interesting that the only time the 8 gangsters raise their ugly heads is
when we have a GOP President.

Where were they the last 8 years of Obama rule.

The bill would exempt these "kids" too:

illegal invaders are not Americans - they all need to go. Once they go, that should set an example for these folks to stop trying to do things illegally.

By the way, we have lots of illegals from China, Brazil, Africa - not just Mexican and Latin Americans - they all need to go. Illegals are also people who over stay their Visa.

When will South Carolina vote out this RINO obstructionist? He really needs to go.

Agreed! The spotlight is on the cockroaches; see how they run. Any Republican that aligns with Amy’s uncle and Deana is no Republican. We need an amendment that if they can get passage, the sponsors MUST accept one dozen “children” in their homes.

For the life of me, I do not understand how AZ and SC can continue to re-elect these clowns.

So for 6 years the Senate could do nothing “because the President will just veto it” NOW these two clowns want to posture and preen for the cameras as if they can simply ignore the President’s veto pen?

I think the Trump Thank-You Tour needs to make a couple of stops in Phoenix and Charleston.

Dear Linda, the president won’t sign it, and any sane senator will steer clear of it. You seem terrified at getting the wall, visa control, coast and border control in place FIRST before we discuss anything else.

Which you and the other republicans on the gang of eight all said was what the ‘comprehensive bill’ accomplished.

Shumer said recently that simply was not the case; that it always had been ‘everything at once’.

So, you lie. You lie often. You lie poorly.
