The pro-mass immigration GOP megadonor billionaire Koch brothers are threatening Republicans running midterm campaigns, saying they want to see an amnesty for millions of illegal aliens passed or they will “closely evaluate” their aiding and funding of certain candidates.
The Koch brothers represent a number of organizations that purport to be conservative and libertarian-leaning, including Freedom Partners, the LIBRE Initiative, Americans for Prosperity, and Generation Opportunity. The billionaires’ businesses include Matador Cattle Company, Koch Pipeline, and Guardian Industries.
In an interview with The Hill, Americans for Prosperity President Tim Phillips said the pro-amnesty, pro-mass immigration Koch networks would “closely evaluate” their participation in GOP midterm races if those candidates did not help push an amnesty for the millions of illegal aliens who are eligible and enrolled in the President Obama-created Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.
Breitbart News has closely chronicled the Koch brothers’ attempts to not only pass an amnesty for millions of illegal aliens but also keep the current policies of mass legal immigration intact to keep the U.S. labor market flooded and prevent wages for American workers from rising.
The Koch brothers’ agenda of a low-wage economy with mass immigration is at deep odds with Republican voters and Trump supporters. Most recent polling reveals that reducing overall immigration to the U.S. is more important than tax cuts, repealing Obamacare, and even destroying the Islamic State (ISIS).

And I believe your post expresses what 99% of FReepers are advocating. There is nothing wrong with planned and controlled legal immigration along with expected cultural assimilation (not cultural abandonment). What so many are really advocating, just below the surface, is the importation of hordes of third-world people to pick the cotton, or lettuce, or to reduce labor costs in a given factory — at the expense of the well-being and civil order of this country.
The latter is nothing but self-interest and so contributing money to bribe politicians to lower your production costs at the expense of everyone else is just plain immoral.
This is precisely why most of the elected GOP goes against the wishes of their voters.
They own most of the GOP Senators.
Flake, Corker, Hatch, Heller, Alexander, Graham, McCain, Murkowsky, Hoeven, Rubio, Tillis, Burr, Lankford, Gardner, Cornyn, Cochran, Collins, Sasse, Kennedy, Shelby, Ernst, Blunt, McConnell, Wicker, Portman, Isakson, Johnson, Toomey, Rounds, Thune, Gaines, Barasso and Enzi are all Bush League Republicans hell bent on turning the USA into North Mexico.
Call their bluff. What are they going to do join the Dems?
troll is obvious!
In the period 1880-1920 about 30% of the newcomers returned to the old country. Couldn’t hack it. No welfare back then. It’s called self deportation.
Fat lotta good that massive corporate tax cut did, huh?
These SOBs are making more money then ever but they don’t like the people who made it possible: the Americans.
Time to deport the Kochs back to Germany. Maybe they can take the Mexicans with them.
That’s an easy answer—EFF YOU!!
I think they will.
Why not....they’re making billions off the cheap, illegal, labor express.
The same Koch Brothers who were backing Jeb and Karl Rove.
Enough said....Koch Brothers are the ultimate infiltrators who buy off politicians so they will loose elections.
GOP response to Koch Bros. should be: FOAD.
Well.....bye.
Oh yeah, remember it well. Not sure why they’re so hated by the Left. Like the rest of the GOP establishment, the Koch brothers seem to share the same policy goals as the Left, but do so for different reasons.
I’ve often wondered about how often the gop-e loses elections except for insider repubs.
They already own most of the elected GOP, the answer will be “how big do you want your amnesty?”
Unless we Cantorize the Bush League Republican weasels and replace them with patriots that side with the citizens and the rule of law we will still lose our country.
Between the rogue federal judges, and used ass wipes such as these Cock Brothers, the only way we will ever take this country back is through force of arms.
What are they going to do join the Dems?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That’s exactly what they do when their Bush League Republican loses the primary, they help the Democrat win.
Whatever it takes to block the citizens from stopping the Cheap Labor Express.
Saw Axios video with KOCH industries logo everywhere.
And suddenly the ‘Progressives’ are quiet.
They don’t own it. It ain’t for sale.
