DAMNING Thread Takes a Deep Dive Into Text of the Senate's So-Called 'Immigration' Bill (Screenshots)
Twitchy ^ | 2/5/24 | Twitchy Team/Mike Howell

Posted on 02/05/2024 7:48:25 AM PST by CFW

You know, we make a lot of digs at our elected officials for taking breaks and vacations but when you see legislation like what the Senate crapped out (sorry for the visual but it fits) to supposedly secure our border, it seems like it might be better for ALL of us if they go on vacation and STAY on vacation.

Some of these people are either really stupid or really evil.

Perhaps we should learn to embrace the power of and.

“The feral offspring of people that threw off the colonial rule of Britain, France and Spain and sent the American military flying out by helicopter are not going to be more manageable.”

Maybe. However, I still think that’s the globalists plan.

They are good at their jobs and they fully understand the intracacies of the system and the underlying politics. Unlike our elected representatives the lobbyists know their craft and get paid for producing results. That’s how they keep their jobs. To be fair, some congressional staff are pretty knowledgeable on some of the issues.

Many have noted that the downfall of our republic started with the airconditioning of offices in DC making it possible to "work" during the summer. I would actually move it back to earlier times when they drained the malarial swamps that made human habitation in DC impossible.

Practically all ‘legislation’ is crafted by the aides and flunkies and the permanent bureaucracy..

I have long claimed the US Senate is the most dangerous group of 100 people on the face of this earth.

They are making my case.

That isn’t going to leave very many left, although the numbers remaining would be sufficient.

“Some of these people are either really stupid or really evil.”

It’s both. And I posit that it’s the evil that makes them stupid.... because the evil makes them arrogant... and arrogance leads to stupidity.

Actually, no.

Most text for bills comes from lobbyists or “think tanks”.

“This one was written by the US Chamber of Commerce”

************

Constituents naively think their opinions matter. They write and call congressional offices only to get the brush off in the form of canned replies.

To paraphrase the old E.F. Hutton line, when lobbyists call congressmen listen.
