Mitch McConnell: Joe Biden’s Amnesty Is ‘Rough Day … for American Workers’
Breitbart ^ | JANUARY 21, 2021 | NEIL MUNRO

Posted on 01/21/2021 7:15:25 PM PST by E. Pluribus Unum

Amnesty for illegal immigrants is bad for American workers, according to a tweet from GOP Senate Leader Mitch McConnell.

“A proposal to gut immigration enforcement and give blanket amnesty? Rough ‘day one’ for American workers,” said the tweet.

The failed Paris deal will hurt American families while China and Russia grow emissions.

The Keystone cancellation will kill union jobs and hurt U.S. energy security.

And a proposal to gut immigration enforcement and give blanket amnesty?

Rough "day one" for American workers.

— Leader McConnell (@LeaderMcConnell) January 21, 2021

The tweet is McConnell’s first mention of immigration on his Twitter account.

The tweet came as GOP politicians are moving to embrace the populist policies they will need to get reelected in 2022 and 2024, and also to regain a majority in the Senate.

“Before we deal with immigration, we need to … make sure everyone has the chance to find a good job,” Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) said January 19. He added:

America should always welcome immigrants who want to become Americans. But we need laws that decide who and how many people can come here, and those laws must be followed and enforced. There are many issues I think we can work cooperatively with President-elect Biden, but a blanket amnesty for people who are here unlawfully isn’t going to be one of them.

“It is deeply troubling that most of Joe Biden’s first acts as president were to protect illegal immigrants and encourage illegal immigration at the expense of American jobs and workers,” Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) said after Biden announced his amnesty plans.

Other GOP senators focus on regulation, businesses, borrowing, and taxes while ignoring the damaging impact of foreign workers moving into Americans’ jobs.

Well Mitch, our former president would have never allowed this to happen.

But the Democrats stole the election and YOU refused to help us stop the steal.

Dittoes, Mr. Fuji!

I just posted this on another thread. I think it's a real triumph of Trump and his Administration that isn't talked about.

The military has been used as pawns for decades. Donald Trump tried to put an end to that. Just amazing — but not surprising — the media has NEVER, to my knowledge, even mentioned that Trump was one of the only Presidents in history that kept us out of war.

Mitch must have found a serious message in the Chi-Com Fortune Cookie that came with his last take-out.

You may be correct from a Constitutionalist point of view.

However who knows with Schumer running the Senate?

Pelosi didn’t even run the first impeachment through the Judiciary Committee (Nadler), instead she used House (un)Intelligence Committee (Schiff) as her “point man.”

These Democrats don’t give a shit about the Constitution or historical precedent.

Or even back on December 8. Instead, he was chomping at the bit to “congratulate” Biden.

Stop pretending you care all of a sudden, Senator Cocaine.

Exactly. This is the standard BS move. Once in minority status where they are ineffectual, they whine about how terrible things are. Oh please elect me, please send me more campaign money. They can all get stuffed.

You get the impeachment quashed McConnell and THEN we can talk about the GOP remaining a viable political party.

Not before.

Then you can write “I am very sorry for what I did to President Trump” a hundred gazillion times and maybe, just maybe mind you, you’ll find a gift under the Christmas Tree.

cheap labor

Then Joe will give the illegals $15 an hour. Other bonuses brought will our new neighbors:

(1) all kinds of diseases and ones we haven't even heard of

(2) criminals and cartel crews so more of our people can get high/dead

(3) the cartels will kill off our American dealers

(4) new sneaky muslim terrorists to blow things up and kill people.

(5) Joe's new motto will be "Make America San Francisco, Portland, New York, and Seattle!"

(6) He'll sell MASFPNYS hats.

Gee, Bitch-connell, I guess you should have worked a bit harder to keep President Trump in office

Or maybe just not do everything to keep him from winning sort of campaigning for Biden

"God bless his little heart!" Seems he wants to return to 'business as usual?' He has a surprise coming.

17 Republicans would need to convict. I say may be 10. Ronney, Murkowski, McConnell for sure. Probably Toomey. Who else?
