More Republican Senators Expect Lankford Migration Plan to Collapse
Breitbart ^

Posted on 01/31/2024 6:44:28 AM PST by Tench_Coxe

Pro-migration Republican Senators are signaling a quick collapse for the Democratic-backed migration plan now being negotiated by Sen. James Lankford (R-OK) and Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY), according to Politico.

(snip)

Another pro-migration GOP Senator, Sen. Mike Rounds (R-S.D.), blamed Russia for the rising GOP opposition, telling Politico “I suspect that a lot of the internet rumors are very well coming from overseas, where they would love to see this shut down because some people would rather not see funding for Ukraine.”

You know, legislation is not necessary. Enforce the law, faithfully execute your duties under the Constitution. Instead, the Biden/Obama regime is WILLFULLY violating the law and the Constitution. And most likely acting in concert with entities outside the United States.
From the tidbits leaking out, I agree that what Lankford/McConnell and Democrats are trying to do is make the invasion "legal".

In my book, its treason. Yeah, I said it.

If Trump was able to stop virtually ALL Illegal Border Crossings, why is an immigration deal needed???

So Biden can blame this mess he created on the GOP's hesitancy in passing HIS bill.

It was just last week that I read somewhere (probably here) that McConnell gave the responsibility for this bill to Lankford because he just won re-election to his second term in 2022 and was good to go for four more years.

Now this is albatross is being hung around his neck.

The lesson is to beware "gifts" by Mitch McConnel.

The ONLY thing "good" about Lankford's plan is that it clearly exposes what he is!

Sounds like the debate has shifted to discussing lovely flocks of birds, not criminal invaders.

ZACKLY!

Migration plan is directly related to funding Ukraine? Um...ok...Maybe that’s part of the problem

Their plan was to get it through the Senate, then force a vote in the House with a discharge petition.

If their plan doesn’t get through the Senate, then they’re cooked.

No money for Ukraine, which is the whole point of this nonsense.

And God forbid they work on a bill in open committee.

That might have been the article I put up about Lankford getting censured:

The furthest “compromise” should go is a Green Card and pay a large fine, and that’s only for a select few who meet strict criteria. They pay taxes. They don’t break the law. They don’t vote. No citizenship. Cheat on their taxes? Deported. Don’t hold a job for a set period of time? Deported. Break the law? Deported.

The rest? Deported and apply for citizenship like the law says.

And that’s being very generous.

I read that the UN is funding the migrant invasion, using US foreign aid funds. So tax payers are are paying these invaders to come here. The OK GOP has the right idea, censoring Lankford.

Lankford’s screwed-up mug constantly lecturing and hating on MAGA.

Him, Thune, Cotton etc. are globaloid, industrialist swamp-frauds.

From the second article:

"Catholics. The highly visible Catholic Charities USA is not on the list of those working south of the border with this UN project, although the NGO and its many affiliate components receive tens of millions of dollars in federal awards to manage illegal immigrant transportation north from the border and resettlement activity in the United States interior.

But some 13 franchises of the nonprofit Caritas, whose website states that it is “inspired by the Catholic faith” and is “the helping hand of the Church”, will dole out $12.3 million to immigrants south of the border, much of it as cash and cash vouchers, the activity explorer search tool shows.

USAID and the State Department’s PRM have given more than $11 million to one of them, Caritas Brazil, since the mass migration began in 2021,"

“they are EXPEDITING the flow of illegals across our border”

Yes, it’s a huge BUM’S RUSH to get as many into the USA (what’s left of it) as possible before a possible Trump re-election.
