Former President Donald Trump said that Republicans should say "No" to a border security deal that does not include "everything needed" to stop the flow of illegal migrants at the southern border.
"I do not think we should do a Border Deal, at all, unless we get EVERYTHING needed to shut down the INVASION of Millions & Millions of people, many from parts unknown, into our once great, but soon to be great again, Country!" Trump wrote Thursday on Truth Social.
Congressional leaders are hoping to reach a bipartisan deal that would be attached to the national security supplemental package and unlock billions in funding for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan.
Both Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., told reporters this week that a national security funding deal could come up for a vote as soon as next week.
However, even though it will likely garner the 60 votes needed to pass in the upper chamber, it will be dead on arrival in the GOP-controlled House if it does not include Trump-era immigration penalties as outlined in H.R. 2 — the House's border security bill passed last year. McConnell has indicated that the priority is not just the border, but the other national security issues outlined in the package.

Take that to the bank.
I am 100% with Trump on this. Anything less would be a joke.
The Refugee Convention by permitting illegal entry (and entry upon any request) makes it impossible to secure the border. We need to get out from under the Refugee Convention.
OUR border is non-negotiable. Right?
“McConnell-Schumer border deal”
Two of the most despised politicians in the country. In addition to this “deal” being just awful Johnson would have to be an idiot and a traitor to go along with it.
A 20% federal sales tax on new houses over 1600 square feet would reduce the income and remittances of illegals.
New house construction is an invader magnet.
They should call it what it really is: a border security deal that allows the Dems to do absolutely nothing on the border.
“We need to get out from under the Refugee Convention.”
No we don’t.
All parties to our south invalidated it with their actions.
We just ignore it.
“National security” is a complete scam put on steroids since 9/11.
We’re giving all our generated money away to illegals or foreigners regardless, so blow it whichever way, fon’t care. When the money runs out, the politicians will run out.
Screw the Biden=Choomer border deal.
any money to Ukraine means that Johnson has to go.
#MAGA
Trump is RIGHT !!!
NO DEAL on the BORDER SHUT DOWN PLAN!!!
Its Fool’s Gold.
But the Rinos and the UniParty and the US Chamber of Commerce loves the fake window dressing shutdown deal.
