...Yesterday, the House Appropriations Committee, during a markup of the fiscal year 2019 DHS funding bill, voted to block the new USCIS guidance to properly interpret “credible fear” as fear of an individualized persecution by a government. As we noted before, this is the lynchpin of the entire border surge, and unless we properly interpret the law as written, the border surge, drugs, gangs, and all of the fiscal and social ills that come with them will never stop. Yet Rep. Kevin Yoder, R-Kan., — yes, that Kevin Yoder — gave his support to this Democrat amendment, and it passed by voice vote.
Yoder, [chair] Homeland Security subcommittee, should be a warrior for the American people and law enforcement. Instead, he is a voice for illegal immigrants. He inserted numerous amendments tying the hands of DHS and giving illegals more rights. He inserted language mandating more free phone calls for illegals and more access to facilities by members of Congress so they can further agitate and hamper our brave agents.
The entire tenor of the markup was a violation of the social compact. It’s as if the ill effects of this border surge on America — from the drugs and gangs to the crushing costs and crime — didn’t matter. He voted to push forward with an investigation of separating families when we know the entire issue is built on a lie and that many of these families self-separate.
snip It allows anyone to come here and simply claim a bogus fear. Then we are forced to deal with their children, release them, go through endless court cases, and lose control of our country. It is now clear that RINOs like Yoder not only want amnesty for those already here but want to ensure that the invasion continues in perpetuity.

Lou Dobbs will be all over this tonight. It needs to be fully exposed.
Most of them live in gated communities with elaborate security protections.
His wikipedia entry goes out of its way to make you think he’s “Not Amish”.

Can the president stop it? I believe the Federal law on what constitutes refugee status requires ore than that new definition.
If by MUST you mean that getting rid of the Bush League is something that must be accomplished or else the Republic will die, you are spot on.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This
Federal law requires more than that loose definition.
Apologies for unfinished post above.
And this is why there is no reason to vote for 90% of incumbent Republicans this fall. They are useless and now worse then the regressives.
The House will go regressive and Trump can rule by EO the way the usurper did.
And please don’t start whining. You have to clear out the rot if you want to build a strong foundation. Do your duty and vote out the traitor Republicans and then vote in a true Trump slate in 2020.
LOL. Yeah, let’s vote out all the GOP from Congress and have the Dems impeach POTUS.
The RINO’s and their political masters (i.e., big doners) want cheap labor and more consumers. They side with the Rats on immigration because its what the Chamber of Commerce and the Business Roundtable want. They don’t care what social damage it does to the country.
Yep. Soros and the Koch Brothers agree on more issues than they disagree. Open Borders. Check. Socialized medicine. Check. Etc., etc.
Names to remember at election time.
This seems to be a go nowhere CYA bill for these beltway sewer inhabitants. So they can go back to their donors and say “I voted for this” blah, blah, blah.
Once again, the GOP is working hard to lose the House in November
**************
Doing their very best to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory once again. You cannot trust these people to do anything right.
I don’t vote for the backstabbing Republicans, but I do vote against Democrats. ;)
Between these bought and paid for OBL whores and the idiot from Florida calling for a carbon tax, the GOP is still the Lobbyist Party.

You understand their game well. That’s exactly how its played. Its all a big charade.
In a somewhat related note, I watched Pompeo’s briefing yesterday. The senators disgraced themselves with rank partisanship, reading from news sources, and cheap gotcha tricks attempting to corner Pompeo. He made them look like the children they are.
Our congress as a whole is a farce of complete buffoonery.
The Republican Party, at the national level, has to ditch the corrupting influence of Free Traitor™ globalists and the “farm” cartel and embrace nationalism ( MAGA if you will )if they are ever going to have a secure majority. The Republicans shouldn’t have to needlessly struggle so much to retain a majority. They bring it on themselves.
30 years ago the RINOs needed to go.
Treasonous sonsa bitches. Hang em all
Need I say,"Follow the money"?
