The whole premise is Fake.


McCarthy and McConnell arrived at this because they knew the Republican Voters would be upset with more Ukraine tens or hundreds of Billions.

The knew 81 yr old Biden could care less about spending, so instead of taking a dollar from Biden, they thought they could add “spending” for the Border to Bamboozle Republican Voters and Biden would sign up.


Thomas Massie was the deciding Vote on the Debt Limit, and he now says he was Lied to.


The Lies are for the Voters. Republicans know one day after Election, Biden is going to do what his 23 yr old Transgenders and the Idiots on the View want.

This bill will assure a continuing invasion of illega aliens.

Trump said to turn down the deal......Its not a deal....its the legitimization of an illegal invasion of our SOuthern Border. A CYA for treason. DO NOT DO IT.

Cities are being overwhelmed.

Homeowners are being overwhelmed by property taxation.

Hospitals are being overwhelmed.

ICE cars kill - when on overcrowded roads.

The Insurrection Administration could have simply continued with President Trump’s border policies, and not done a complete 180. Whoever is calling the shots in Biden La La Land is scared. Gotten themselves into a predicament, and don’t know how to proceed, so now they want to cut a deal with Congress to avoid a confrontation. Screw your deals.

The budget Trump had was sufficient. It’s not the money.

Our side should know that!

Our side still doesn’t find it necessary to push back.

It’s so infuriating. Trump is the only one on our team, and
everyone knows that.

"GOP Senators are dumb."

They're not dumb. They're evil traitors.

BS

no deal can or will FORCE Biden to do anything!

Any thing given will be all that happens, because Biden would rather state Civil War II than do his job and stop the illegal aliens.

“Biden vows to ‘shut down’ an overwhelmed border if Senate deal passes”

So Biden admits he is not faithfully executing the laws.

For the same reason they have No interest in Investigating / Impeaching Joe, they want to give him another Victory.

He’ll immediately claim Victory and say he fixed the Border months before the Election.

They want to put Joe in a better position.

For me, this is the one article WP let me view. Here's part:

President Biden said Friday that he would use new emergency authorities to “shut down the border when it becomes overwhelmed” if Congress passes a bipartisan immigration plan that the Senate has been negotiating. Cut through the 2024 election noise. Get The Campaign Moment newsletter.

The comments signified a remarkable shift in tone for a Democratic president and underscored the urgency of the issue for his reelection campaign as immigration remains one of his most vexing political and policy challenges.

In a lengthy statement Friday, Biden praised the bipartisan border deal senators have been negotiating, calling it “the toughest and fairest set of reforms to secure the border we’ve ever had in our country.”

“It would give me, as President, a new emergency authority to shut down the border when it becomes overwhelmed,” he said. “And if given that authority, I would use it the day I sign the bill into law.”

Biden is referencing a new expulsion authority senators have negotiated that would kick in on days unauthorized border crossings reach 5,000 over a five-day average, according to two people familiar with the outlines of the deal who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss private deliberations.

That authority would shut down most asylum screenings for migrants crossing illegally. Migrants could still apply at ports of entry, where a set number of asylum claims would need to be granted, they said. Migrants would be expelled indefinitely until crossings dipped below 3,750 per day, which would end the expulsion authority period.

The deal also changes the U.S. asylum process with the goal of reducing the average time for an asylum claim to be resolved from several years to 6 months, the people said. It also raises the standard for migrants to be able to make an asylum claim in the first place. Some Republicans’ goal to dramatically curtail Biden’s use of his humanitarian parole powers for certain categories of migrants is not in the final deal, they said. Senators said they hope to release the legislative text of the deal next week.

So he is intentionally allowing the invasion of the country until he gets some money to send to the laundering operation in Ukraine. Treason.
