RINOs & Dems Working on MASS AMNESTY in the House Through “Discharge Petition”
Gateway Pundit ^ | May 14, 2018 | by Cristina Laila

Fox News host Laura Ingraham fired off a warning shot to President Trump Monday evening about an effort in the House to push through mass amnesty all supported by Speaker Paul Ryan.

Paul Ryan is on his way out so he’s on a kamikaze mission to push through mass amnesty.

Laura Ingraham warned the President Monday.

Ingraham tweeted: Warning to @realDonaldTrump: An effort is underway by liberal Repubs (+Dems) on a mass amnesty in the House thru a “discharge petition,” supported by @SpeakerRyan. Total travesty & mid-term turn-out killer.

Laura Ingraham then fired off a second tweet clarifying her first one about Speaker Ryan.

Ingraham tweeted: To clarify: @SpeakerRyan does NOT publicly support the discharge petition. GOP must stick with the clear & principled push for Kate’s Law, no funding for sanctuary cities, MS-13 bill. Amnesty won’t pass in Senate anyway. #NoDischargePetition

RINOs and Dems in the House are essentially forcing a vote on mass amnesty.

WaPo reported:

More than a dozen House Republicans are issuing a rare challenge to their own party’s leaders: Allow immigration bills to get a vote now, or we’ll force a vote.

They’re circulating a petition to do just that, and it’s only seven signatories shy of overriding House Speaker Paul D. Ryan’s (R-Wis.) opposition and forcing votes on a variety of immigration bills to provide a path to citizenship for “dreamers.” It would be the first time the House has passed an immigration bill since Republicans came to power in 2011.

Americans don’t want mass amnesty. We voted for Trump to end the amnesty insanity.

President Trump ran his 2016 presidential campaign on building the wall and putting America first.

In fact, in response to ‘DREAMers’ demanding amnesty, then-candidate Donald Trump told reporters in February of 2016, “I want dreamers to come from the United States.”

“I want the people in the United States that have children, I want them to have dreams also. We’re always talking about ‘DREAMers’ for other people. I want the children that are growing up in the United States to be dreamers also. They’re not dreaming right now,” Trump continued

Keep watch on the outgoing RINO’s, they are bitter and want to stick it to the people as much as they can before leaving.

Another argument against term limits. Once these bastards know they never have to face the voters again this is what we get. John McCAIN said as much a few days ago.

I vote GOP only because the Democrats are socialists, most of whom hate our America. These RINO Republicans are just as bad and just as bad threat to our nation. No more RINOs, we have to back good guys/gals in the coming primaries. that means help or donate to them.

Never trust the “won’t pass in the Senate” claim. Something else can be passed in the Senate then pretty much turned into the worse of the two bills for final passage.

And with all the Dems and RINOs, I’d be worried about a potential veto override too.

What Speaker retires in a period when his party holds all three houses?

One that is guilty, and scared about what’s coming.

correct, Ryan must stop it now before the Senate can get it into conference and make whatever they want of it...

The primaries are the time to replace RINOs with conservatives. In the general election, if my choice is between a RINO or a Democrat, I will hold my nose and vote for the RINO.

If the Democrats retake the House, then they will spend all of their time “investigating” the Trump administration and passing articles of impeachment. If the Democrats retake the Senate, then none of President Trump’s judicial or other nominees will ever make it to the floor for a vote again.

The answer is to increase the number of Republicans in the House and Senate. When there is a very thin margin, the RINOs have more power. When RINOs are not needed for a vote, then their power is gone.

Such would require a floor vote if demanded by enough members right? I know a non-recorded (cowardly) voice vote would be preferred by Dems and RINOs.

But this could be a “hanging curve ball” for Trump... at his veto speech he could call out the cowardly Congress if a voice vote!

Not exactly.

The longer they are allowed to stay in office, the more they can steal.

If they are going to leave their offices with a last set of "screw the voters" actions, we need a way to make them suffer personal consequences afterwards.

Trouble is they might have enough votes to overturn his veto from then on it will always be used against him. Sadly they might get this.
