Cowards: Senate blocks Laken Riley Act by Vote of 51-47

The Senate voted 51-47 to block an amendment to add the Laken Riley Act to the funding bill.

As Breitbart News’s John Binder explained, the Laken Riley Act would “require the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to take into custody illegal aliens arrested, charged, or convicted for burglary, theft, larceny, or shoplifting.”

Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) wrote, “Senate Democrats are shutting down the government rather than allow us to vote on things like deporting criminal migrants. Say what you will, but they’re committed to open borders.”

I doubt the country can last ‘til 1/21/25 at this rate. More has to be done now.

“This is why it’s imperative that Trump gets back in office.”

If the Democrats control either the House or Senate with Trump in office any legislation he wants will be blocked by the Democrats. It is the Republicans who consistently cave on legislation, even when they have the majority. Democrats are cohesive and don’t compromise.
