I quipped on a thread about how resistance to the invasion would eventually get framed as resulting from the action by "agents of Putin". And here we get that very intimation from a sitting United States senator.

Lankford and McConnell should both collapse.

That Rounds is a complete idiot.

It’s obvious the immigration plan can’t pass. It’s just meant to legalize millions of illegals.

The language is changing again...
"Lankford Migration Plan"

"Another pro-migration GOP Senator"

Sounds like the debate has shifted to discussing lovely flocks of birds, not criminal invaders.

"Pro-migration Republican Senators are signaling a quick collapse for the Democratic-backed migration plan now being negotiated by Sen. James Lankford (R-OK) and Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY), according to Politico."

So they're wising up and finding somewhere else to be? Or in at least one case, trying to play the Russia card like he's Hillary Clinton or something. What a craven diphsit.

And set the bar for action at such a high rate that it will just allow current influx to continue.

Asshats such as Mike Rounds should be publicly ridiculed and excoriated for such statements.

Idiots who believe the bulk of their constituents are stupid enough to buy into such nonsense, as if said “explanation” would halt the outrage directed at the “smoky back room deal that betrays America”, should be publicly flogged, then keelhauled, then caned, and finally tarred, feathered and run out of town.

Just yesterday I read a quote from Lankford denying some of the rumored content of the bill. If it’s so great, why is the exact content still secret? It’s true that support is collapsing, so why not try to salvage it by releasing the text so everyone can see the rumors are false?

I just read that 750 million people would love to “migrate”. Where do we think they want to waltz into? 11 million under FJB already. That’s roughly a couple army divisions and the combination of about 11 smaller states. The rule is that once any population hits the 25% number, the society drastically changes (for the worst).

...GOP Senator, Sen. Mike Rounds (R-S.D.), blamed Russia for the rising GOP opposition,...

Russia, the greatest boogieman ever invented. Right up there with climate change and global warming. There's nothing Russia and climate change can't do to disrupt life on planet earth!

I despise these traitorous RINOs even more than I despise the DemocRats. All are corruptocrats willing to sell out the USA to the highest bidder.

And these trespassers are not “migrants”; they are a horde of invaders come to plunder our civilization. Anyone, like these Congressmen, who enables their infiltration should be tried for treason and then executed accordingly.

It’s worth remembering this line “we need to stop illegal immigration and increase legal immigration” is flawed in principle. The USA already legally lets in 1 million immigrants per year , an excessive number IMO already. The most in the world I believe.

And..

Kentucky has a dubious distinction of being a very red state the has a history of opening our borders up to the flood. The 1986 Simpson-Mazzoli bill (amnesty) was an eventual abject failure. Rather than making a one time amnesty then controlling the border it was the start to what we have today.

Mazzoli was Romano Mazzoli a Democratic Italian heritage senator from Loserville Ky…er I mean Louisville Ky.

BTW he died in 2022, very quietly in the news I might add, I live a 10 min drive from Ky and didn’t even hear about it. However he and (Republican) Simpson’s legacy will live on forever in being one of the instruments of change in transforming what was the worlds most moral, high living standard and powerful countries in the world to the mess we are becoming.

Perhaps Lankford and his crew need some “migrants” in their neighborhood.

Still waiting for an answer:

If Trump was able to stop virtually ALL Illegal Border Crossings, why is an immigration deal needed???

Well, you know the answer to that. Notwithstanding the fact that he's a Baptist minister, Lankford is not politically trustworthy. This entire thing is about him ignoring the interests of the State that sent him to the Senate and sucking up to seats of power. When one calls his office, whichever young lady who answers the phone will say, "But you haven't seen what's in the bill!" - which of course is the defense they want to run, because they're hiding the details of the bill for the reasons you just described.

He's laying the ground for a sellout, and screw his constituent State. One suspects that Big AG interests have been making the cheap labor pitch to him. He thinks the worst that could happen as a result of this is life goes on just the same as always and he gets primaried in 2028, at which time he'll be fabulously rewarded for doing this.
