Lead Republican Sen. James Lankford (R-OK) worked with his colleagues to craft a border compromise to enable passage of tens of billions of dollars in foreign aid, including to Ukrainians to prolong their war with Russia that has been at a stalemate for months.

According to the Immigration Accountability Project, the proposed Senate deal would:

Increase green cards by 50,000/year Work permits for adult children of H-1B holders

Immediate work permits to every illegal alien released from custody

Taxpayer-funded lawyers to certain UACs and mentally incompetent aliens

Expulsion authority for a limited number of days only if encounters exceed 5K/day over a seven-day period

Restrict parole for those who enter without authorization between ports of entry

Unbelievable! Lankford is wanting full surrender to the third world invasion at the border.

Not unbelievable. He’s clearly pushing Chamber of Commerce agenda items. I’m not surprised.

Thank goodness for Speaker Johnson standing firm!

Mike Johnson may have made his last stand.

Next move: Vacate the chair.

Then find a squish who will keep the border open, give Zelensky everything he wants (maybe even 72 virgins!), and make Israel fight on its own.

Kyrie eleison!

Work permits and free lawyers for all illegals!

I hope the voters of Oklahoma remember this.

The fact that this could pass the Senate is proof the Senate must be reformed. Six year terms are too long, especially with all of the election fraud in recent years.

Seems like Joe Biden (his handlers) made a calculation. Blame the collapse of Ukraine on the Republicans.

Germany is going to have to step up and support Ukraine if they are going to stay in the fight. But the Germans are pretty much Pacifists.

Regardless one lousy dime for Ukraine gets through Republicans should pay for it in the House including Speaker Johnson.

Either they all vote against it or if any vote for it the rest should be shunned.

I know that Thomas Massie is for real when he opposed this money laundering for the likes of 737MAX Boeing and other favorites of the political insiders. I would support him.

I’m an Okie. I’m embarrassed. Trump carried all 77 counties in Oklahoma and this idiot Senator of mine gets rolled by Schumer.

Not forgetting who the evildoer is that presently occupies the White House, the term of President should be six years.

There isn’t time enough to accomplish an agenda. I realize that we have had real doozies, but the ficleness of voters can’t be helped.

Senate terms should be 4 years with severe limits placed on staff size and expenses.

Mike Langford needs to have his career destroyed. Who will step up? Isn’t Steve Largent available?

So you propose presidents can only have one 6 year term?

I guess that’s fine if he or she is a good one but if they are like Obiden or Obozo, it would be an unmitigated disaster.

Heck, I’ve gotten to the point that dems are so insane and power hungry that they should never be allowed to hold any government office. That includes local elected office. On the other hand they would just do like they’ve been doing and run as republicans (rinos).
