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.

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 case could be made for repealing the 17th amendment and making sure states have the right to recall Senators.*

I’d call for a vote of confidence on the Election Day ballot 4 years into their 6 year terms. It would be like a recall vote within the regular election.

We need more Cantorizing. McCarthy was a prime candidate but Bakersfield republicans didn’t even step up.
