Oklahoma Republican Party Ends ‘All Support’ for Sen. James Lankford over Senate Deal to Expand Immigration
Breitbart ^

Posted on 01/30/2024 4:38:23 AM PST by Tench_Coxe

The Oklahoma Republican Party is ceasing “all support” for Sen. James Lankford (R-OK) as he leads negotiations with other Republicans and Democrats for a Senate deal that would expand illegal and legal immigration to the United States.

As Breitbart News has detailed, Lankford is negotiating the deal alongside other Republicans such as Thom Tillis (R-NC) and John Thune (R-SD) with Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) and others.

(snip)

Late last week, members of the Oklahoma Republican Party [OKGOP] State Committee adopted a resolution to condemn and censure Lankford for his work on the deal.

“Be it resolved that the OKGOP strongly condemns Senator James Lankford, if and to the extent that he continues these actions, and calls upon him to cease and desist jeopardizing the security and liberty of the people of Oklahoma and of these United States,” the resolution reads:
"Be it resolved that until Senator Lankford ceases from these actions, the Oklahoma Republican Party will cease all support for him."

A strongly worded letter.

I'd love someone to ask Lankford if he enjoys being McConnell's b****. Lankford was put up to it because his term isn't up until 2028--a case could be made for repealing the 17th amendment and making sure states have the right to recall Senators.

In lieu of that, since DC likes to come up with trendy acronyms or misleading names for particularly bad or odious legislation, I suggest calling the Senate bill:

The BA Act. In case you're wondering what the 'BA' stands for, it can mean either 'Betray America' or 'Benedict Arnold'.

The problem for Sen. Lankford is that “the deal” is more important for his personal standing than the security of the U.S.

In the case of this senator BA probably stands for 'Bull$hit Artist'.......

You know the deal is bad if Murphy is involved.

I wonder if the God can do more? Turn off his phones, pressure his landlord to restrict or evict him, follow his staff and report on their activities and contacts, etc.

He’s not up for re-election until 2026 anyway.

When the time comes, Mitch McConnell and his mini-me (Stave Daines) will make sure the *national* party has Lankford’s back all the way no matter what the Oklahoma GOP does, especially if he gets a primary challenger who is “dangerously” conservative.

PERFECT example on why the 17th Amendment must be repealed.

Actually the next step should be for the Republicans of Oklahoma to confiscate every last piece of Senator Lankford’s personal property and possessions including bank accounts, etc. that are currently within the confines of the state and DESTROY THEM!!!

If the Turtle’s B!tch wants to be a part of the DC Junta, then DESTROY every last tie he has to his former home state. If they can’t recall him, they can ERASE him!!!

With hardly more than moderate attention, I have this understanding. The Leftist Democrats knew that they had to have a cultural shift to subvert the United States as a whole. Their answer was to import a subservient population that was acculturated to socialistic dependency.

What stood in the way were our sensible and time honored, legitimate, immigration laws. With the help of RINOs looking for cheap labor ready to turn their heads as it occurred, Democrats foisted and elevated a portion of immigration law meant to help people fleeing oppressive states. This niche allowed people to claim a danger to themselves from persecution and thereby gain a free pass into the country while a panel of administrative judges (not real judges) appointed by Democrat controlled agencies could get around to ruling on each case. This system had zero controls. Then the Democrats used government money to travel to Mexico and tell illegals how to present themselves as persecuted and endangered immigrants at our border where these inflated protections could be brought into play to allow them in the country without controls.

Trump had somewhat closed that false entry method by the end of his term with a variety of methods.

Once Biden was in office they announced that the Game was On and everyone should get here as fast as possible. We have since for three years had an uncheck flood of illegals.

Now Democrats want to close the methods Trump used, with RINO help, by further institutionalizing the bureaucracy methods used in this sham. If Republicans agree they will hold the illegals crossing to something four times what was happening when Joe came into office as a sop to Republicans without a brain.

I believe that D.C. runs on threat, coercion and blackmail, today. You can do a lot with 900 FBI files.

It doesn’t even have to be pedo and pervy, like Graham probably is. It can be hetero extra-marital, too. Everyone has weak points that can be exploited - financial, job-related, etc. With the power of a corrupted DOJ behind you, you can control just about anyone.

People like to talk about money and bribes, but that gets expensive. Just get video of them taking a small bribe. From then on, it’s free.

If there was any doubt 80% of the Senate is trying to elect Biden thos episode should make it clear. The Repukes are trying to give this piece of junk an out on the border. To be clear, this won’t solve the problem but it allows Biden to point to this bill as his action and the Repukes in the Senate are all in, no matter what they say.

The only way to stop this travesty is to not allow it to even be voted on in the House. The Dems only need a few in each branch to get it done and we have traitors to spare.
