Note to Republicans: There is no starker symbol of Washington's inefficiency and ineffectiveness than the federal government's inability to control our borders and prevent illegal immigration


Yeah and the US House Republican took the issue head on and the Know Nothings fired them for it.

Maybe the Know Nothings should actually try ONE TIME LOOKING at what the Republicans did vrs what the Democrats are doing.

Take the $1.2 billion for fencing and the most spending for new border patrol agents and up graded surveillance technology the Republicans gave you and consider that in light of THIS from the Democrats.

Here is the breakdown of the vote on the House Enforcement First bill, which passed 239 to 182 with 13 not voting. The Reps voted 203-17 for the bill and were joined by 36 Dems [or almost 20% of the Dems voting]. Of those 239 who voted for the bill, how many lost their seats because of their stand on immigration?

You continue to make these baseless assertions that this issue was the reason why the Reps lost control of Congress. Such delusional thinking will not help us take it back.
