President Trump will reportedly meet with the entire Republican caucus on Capitol Hill Tuesday to push the caucus toward passing two immigration bills in the coming days.

A House leadership aide confirmed to the Washington Examiner the meeting will take place at 5:30 Tuesday evening and comes on the heels of a tumultuous end of the week for the White House's messaging on immigration reform.

The official House schedule for next week lists immigration votes as possible, but not definite.

The Ryan K street Amnesty Bill was dead on Friday until
Someone got to Trump .

That Ryan Bill is pure Cheap labor Express Amnesty.
The Daca invaders get amnesty and can bring the whole family too .
That adds up to 10 million plus .

“Trump is already working 18 hour days 7 days a week, he shouldn’t have to come to the Hill and do the jobs others should be doing !”

Trump works harder than the entire caucus and he gets paid a buck. It’s embarrassing to the citizens that congresses budget is astronomical while the work that is produced by them is minuscule.

If Trump cuts the congressional budget by 75%, we lose the dead weight and as a bonus, many of the lobbyists shut down shop.

......”Chain Migration represents over 80% of immigration because it’s exponential”....

Europe is now seeing this after the refugee push. One guy alone (young guy in 20’s) went over 7 yrs. ago as A Syrian refugee to Greece then on to Germany.....Since then his four brother and sisters and their mates have been brought in..two cousins and their babies....this week he was at the terminal waiting for his parents.

“A piece of his voters, about to kick themselves in the teeth.”

I’ll certainly be one of them if he gives the Left anything more. And he can kiss his agenda goodbye.

Rush was pointing out yesterday that the people REALLY PUSHING this Amnesty are the Republicans who are about to retire, at the behest of the big-game donors.

Now why would they do that?

...my answer, they want HIGH PAYING JOBS after leaving Congress, and this is their ticket to those jobs.

Corruption at its worst - and trump needs to END IT.

"A House leadership aide said..."

"An anonymous swamp creature's flunky said..."

MOST likely, the President, Donald J. Trump, is showing up to lay down the law that anything without his four pillars included, is utterly toast.

The swamp *lies*, remember?

Trump is betting Senate Dems will filibuster either bill. Makes me nervous that the Dems might pull a switcheroo and vote yes on the Ryan bill, but I’ve learned to trust Trump.

He’s trying to save the house by letting the squishy moderates vote for the Ryan bill. Maybe he’s willing to turn around and veto the Ryan bill if it unexpectedly makes it through the Senate.

Remember that televised cabinet meeting when Trump said he’d support some immigration plan or the other that Ann Coulter and most everybody here hated? Next day he repudiated his clear statement of support. Drove media/Dems nuts.

In Trump I Trust.

It’s a good bet the Democrats will kill the bill. Trump can then go to the public & say that they don’t want to fix immigration.

We shall see. Tuesday is a long time in politics.

Will Trump cave in / compromise on amnesty in order to achieve his other objections? Perhaps ... but hold your fire because he seems to know what he is doing. Art of the deal.

Please note that Trump can end DACA any time he wants to with this two sentence Executive Order...

“According to the exact language in the Immigration Act of 1965, the DACA kids are unlawfully present in the USA. Therefore, I order the Secretary of Homeland Security to remove them.”

An Executive Order that seeks to enforce the exact language of a federal statute cannot be challenged in federal court.

Only the federal statute itself can be challenged as unconstitutional. Since this statute is more than 50 years old, Trump can still enforce the law, exactly as written, until the Supreme Court declares it unconstitutional.

Bottom Line...

Trump can solve the DACA problem tomorrow, with no Amnesty - but only if he wants to.

Unfortunately, in my opinion, Trump has made it very clear that he is only going to deport criminal immigrants - and no one else.

I realize this .
Its very true .

The Paul Ryan Compromise Bill Aka the bill written by K street bill .
Is pure Amnesty for Daca and Millions more .

Trump killed that Bill on Friday morning and his Aides

Why ?
The bill is written by his enemy Ryan and the Never Trumpers
And has None of the 4 pillars ?

What is going on here ?
Any ideas ?

Most of the GOP Senators are not having any of Trump’s four pillars.

Of course....

But he does want to end DACA .....however not until there’s a ‘solution’ to those here who have been here ‘along while’, without criminal charges, have work etc....he does not want to ‘just’ deport them. He’s made that clear.

“If Trump rams thru that Ryan Amnesty Sell out .

Good Bye Midterms.”

However, if Trump gets them all to approve of whatever he has in mind, it’s a massacre of democrats. Every person in that room with Trump better get it into their thick heads that they are in the room with a proven winner.
