House Speaker Mike Johnson is pushing back on the immigration deal being negotiated between Republicans and Democrats in the U.S. Senate. That comes via a new report that includes several quotes from GOP senators urging Johnson to accept what they send over. Speaker Mike Johnson is publicly and privately panning the Senate’s ongoing border and immigration negotiations. Senate Republicans are reminding him that it's the best deal he'll ever get.
Republicans senators said on Tuesday that they see only worse opportunities ahead to craft a border bill that can pass, given that Democrats who run the Senate and White House are now considering major changes to asylum policy, new

There is no plan, not unless the House Republicans split and some of them support it! Johnson planned on passing his and Schumer's bill with Democrat support all along! Democrats hate us, and Republicans betray us!

I think it’s time to come to the realization that our politicians are owned by lobbyists who enrich them, or blackmailers who are squeezing their necks. Their masters are military-industrialists, medical manufacturers, or sex traffickers with dirty secrets. That’s the only reason they stay in. They are corrupt and enslaved. And they don’t care about us.

The best deal he'll ever get? The communists never make such cowardly, defeated statements. How about No deal? How about shut it down?
Stinking wimps.

Johnson: Say no. This is a nefarious bill structured to help Joey import more illegals.

By "dealing" with Biden, his crew, and the leftist and socialist Democrats on mass uncontrolled illegal immigration the wimpy Republicans are committing long-term political suicide, as Biden and the leftist and socialist Democrats will never follow through with their parts of the "deal" causing the USA to be flooded with more illegal aliens on into the future.

These scummy politicians, why don’t they do the right thing and uphold the damn law and do what Americans have been asking them to do for decades. With their $3-thousand suits and monogrammed shirts; they’re draining the lifeblood out this nation.

Hey Republicans, standing against the open border is a political winner. Why would you throw that gift horse away with siding with Democrats, making you own the open border. Utterly Stupid.

the Senate is the "other half" of the Republican delegation in D.C. and they have proven, over and over again, that they are not worthy of claiming the title of "representative of the people"
- we don't need two anti-liberty parties in Washington but we're being besieged by two oppressive groups there, the demcommies and the RINO's
- which makes the Republican voters just as liable for keeping the RINO's in office as are the demcommie voters for keeping the communist party of the U.S. in office

Shutting it down to all crossers except those with proper paperwork, completing the wall and hunting down fifteen million illegals for deportation is the only solution acceptable to the American people. If you have to shut the government down to accomplish that, go ahead. We'll manage without Biden's leadership.

Had great hopes for Johnson, but he's appearing to be another in a long line of Louisiana politicians!
