What is Lankford hoping to get out of being the face of this bill? Why isn't a Democrat stooging for Biden on this?
I see this as a trap by Democrats to get Republicans to share the blame over the border during the 2024 election. As soon as a bill like this passes, the LAAP-dog media will immediately talk about the "bipartisan" border problem.
And just like that, the border becomes the Republicans' problem.

The bill was negotiated in secret with Sen. Murphy (CT) and Sen. Sinema (AZ). Lankford is just in a role like Liz Cheney in the impeachment committee. Lankford has not likely read or understood the bill and had no say.
