Which spikes the whole lie that 'we have to do something NOW!' that the open-borders lobby was trying to push this Spring.

They really wanted to sell swill and pretend it was better than "inaction", but got a huge voter backlash.

There was no "voter backlash." If there was any strong sentiment at all in favor of an enforcement-only immigration plan, the Senate would have passed the House bill.

I doubt if any bill will pass, which means things will just go status quo, and will stay that way at least during the next two years.

LOL. The Senate bill was a special-interest "compromise" between the open border left and the open borders cheap labor lobby that was mostly written by Kennedy and his staffers, with help from some RINO Senators. The desire of most Americans didnt enter into their calculations, except insofar as they tried to figure out how much they could get away with putting one over on us by dissembling about the nature of the bill they passed.
