On Wednesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Lead,” Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) argued that “the only way that immigration ever gets solved as a problem is if Democrats are in charge of the House and the Senate,” like they were from 2021 to 2023, and “we change the rules, and we get something passed with a majority vote.”
Murphy said, “I think, for the time being, Republicans are never going to compromise on immigration. I think the only way that immigration ever gets solved as a problem is if Democrats are in charge of the House and the Senate, we change the rules, and we get something passed with a majority vote. I think Republicans can’t imagine a world in which the problem of immigration is solved. What would they do on their weekends if not drag the press down to the border to show off how broken it was? What would they do if they couldn’t complain about this as an issue? I don’t think they can live with a world in which immigration is solved. And so, for the foreseeable future, I, unfortunately, don’t see any world in which we resuscitate this compromise that so many Republicans said they wanted but then ran away from as soon as it was put on the floor for them.”

Just come right out and say it, Commie Murphy ... Dims have to change the rules/existing laws....to make their ‘solutions’ work.
We see how well that’s working, in blue cities and states, brainless.
WOW, Democrats change rules when they are in charge. When Republicans are in charge NOTHING CHANGES. Funny how it always goes that way, huh?
The Dems' middle name.
The problem with immigration would be solved instantaneously if we just shut down the border. We’ve been forced to absorb almost 10,000,000 foreign invaders in 3 short yrs. We simply can’t afford any more financially or security wise. Congress needs to accept that fact and stop playing political games since America’s future is at stake here.
Ok, give us a hint. What does a solved immigration problem look like - closed border, explel anyone here illegally. Or is it open borders, immediate citizenship free stuff for all newly arrived automatic citizens and a resulting one party communist paradise on earth.
Just give us a hint what we are talking about here.
Are the voters that keep electing this fool really that stupid!
Reichstag much, statist @hole ?
What he means is amnesty for everyone which means a one party rule they will keep on bringing in millions of more illegals til they have enough to turn Texas permanently blue
Or...you lose Congress and the Presidency by large enough margins that the McCain’s can’t stop up the whole thing.
The only way to control crime in Baltimore, Chicago, Los Angeles and Camden is for Dems to control local government.
The only way for San Francisco to get cleaned up is for Dems to gain political power there.
The only way to limit the homeless problem in Portland is for Dems to gain power there.
The only way to stop illegal immigration is for Dems to rule over the Border Patrol.
unfortunately a good number of people will buy his garbage.
For the last two days, Twitter(X) was plastered with comments like “The Republicans own the border crisis now”.
