Politico ^

Posted on 11/07/2023 6:20:46 AM PST by Tench_Coxe

A group of Senate Republicans have released their proposal to overhaul border policies from security to parole and asylum changes.

The group, made up of Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), Tom Cotton (R-Okla.) and James Lankford (R-Okla.), has been meeting for weeks to try and put forth a border proposal with significant policy changes, not just additional funding for Border Patrol.

If its bundled with Ukraine funding, and if the House stands firm on single issue funding bills, its DOA.

And its meaningless as long as the Executive branch flouts the existing law.

But at least its nice to know they're paying enough attention to one of the big concerns of the constituencies they pretend to represent.

We wouldn’t be having this problem if they had built the wall like Trump wanted them to.

Yup! The laws were already in place, these scoundrels either repealed or ignored those laws.
What good will a pack of new laws do? This traitorous bunch wants the borders open.

Why not just enforce existing laws....? That would be a great place to start

Wow. Not only is it a little late to close the barn door, the horse is already out, long gone, and close to dying of old age.

They may as well introduce a new DOMA bill.

We need to ‘wall off’ our money by placing tax caps in our Constitution.

Basically, give us a bunch of money and we will help all the sanctuary cities and states. The next bill we will talk about a wall, but only after we grant all the illegals asylum.

Who has the senate? Who wouldn’t give just a few billion for the border wall?
Why are the senators wasting their time? Showing off?

I like Matt Gaetz more and more. We need one or 2 in the senate.

A wall wouldn’t change a thing as long as Biden wants to let everyone in. A wall would only slow them down as they passed through the open doors.

The people involved in this bill are doing a bunch of machinations to fool the citizens that they are doing something about the border in order to get billions more in Ukraine funding. Just look at the people behind it. Lindsay Graham. Are you going to believe that fag?

Why are they doing this?

Because our new SOH said he would do a trade off for border security.

I think this was planned and it is a ruse.

Biden will ignore this border security bill and those pigs in the Senate and the House can pretend they did something.

I am not buying it.

Where is this money coming from? Oh wait our S.S that’s where. I hope there is something left when I leave the work force. But then again I only put into it for the last 49 years, I’m not eligible.

“Does it included a “virtual fence” like John McCain wanted??“

Probably, since Linda was joined at the hip to McTraitor.

We would be having this problem if the duly-elected President Trump was in the Oval Office.
