While the House has gone full 'Israel or Bust', the Senate has come up with a $118 billion bipartisan agreement which would allow 1.5 million illegals to enter the US every year, allocates $2.3 billion towards NGOs and other organizations which traffic them, gives $14.1 billion in security assistance to Israel, and a whopping $60 billion in support to Ukraine.
The bill also locks in green card giveaways until 2030.

Can we all admit now that we realize all these billions of dollars are not really going to Ukraine?

I support the weapons to Ukriane, but not ONE MORE illegal, and NOTHING to these damned facilitators of illegal aliens entering the country.

4,999 Illegal Aliens a day checking in at the border is just fine for Lankford from Oklahoma. Billions for Catholic and Lutheran charities are fine. 60 billion for Ukraine is fine because someone must pay the Ukraine Budget. Those millions from Burisma to Biden multiplied like the bread and fishes of the Sermon of the Mount. And we will have a basketcase of Illegals leftovers to lower American salaries. The RNSC must have lost its marbles.
Not one more red cent for the Republican Party, I now donate only by Check, no WinRed, directly to America First candidates.

This so-called partisan Senate deal sucks, which is why Chuckie and the demonrats want it so much. It does nothing, absolutely nothing, to closing the border. I hope he House deep-sixes it.

What a deal! 1.5 million a year? Why? Because DC is building an American caste system. They need illegals, I mean immigrants, to mow their lawns, nanny their kids, etc. America is on the road to the 3rd World.

The Must Reads are disheartening today. Out of six articles, four are about the atrocious border bill. Two pertain to sewer rat “migrants” already here.
The 1.5 illegals allowed in per year is a lie. An easy get around is to fly parasites and insurgents directly from the old countries. The rinos and democrats who support this bill are no better than the Rosenbergs.

Clearly the political machine has reached the place where they don't care that they are opposing the citizens who they supposedly represent. The bribery and blackmail are far more effective than calls from constituents. They no longer have to worry about reelection with the voting machines controlled by their handlers.
I now get that video of French farmers with farm equipment spewing manure onto their government buildings.

To deliberately earmark money to encourage and even take part in activities that are still against federal law is Alice in Wonderland. 118 billion dollars to help 1.5 million people to break the law is to engage in criminal activity yourself.

I would ike to express my whole hearted congratulations to the RINO wing of the Democrat party. Once again thy found a way to appease their masters and make a really bad bill worse. I would rather see Puin in the White Hut than a Democrat or RINO wing of the Democrat party in the White Hut. At least Putin would protect our borders. And our freedoms and two-tier Just-Us system would even change.

Taken from a recent post that pretty well sums up this whole sellout--
"If you haven't figured it out by now, our entire government is a huge Mafia who launders our taxrpayer dollars right back to themselves through foreign aid and endless wars. They all hate you and could care less if you suffer and die horrible deaths as long as they continue to get rich"
American citizens are being sacrificed for a few pols in this deal.
The debt we have incurred over the last decade has U.S. currently spending $1.27 for every dollar of tex revenue to support this unabated spending spree.
I have been purchasing frozen lemonade concentrate for several month, and when I went back to purchase more over the weekend. it had gone up from $1.68 to $1.88-- a 20 cent increase from last week?
This over spending is creating more inflation to the consumer-- those retirees on fixed incomes are going to be most affected, but maybe this time, the economy will be more of a factor in the upcoming primaries and general election.

First of all, there should be a Stop ISSUED for ANY Illegals entering this Country until we get a Handle on the Millions that have arrived under Biden's watch. Obama must be smiling! Also, ANY member of Congress (from Either Part) who votes for this Bill should be Primaried. We should be taking names and getting the Ball rolling on throwing them out and replacing them with someone with common sense! To think anyone would want more Illegals entering this Country, when we have the messes we have in this country right now, says that person does not have the best interest of our Country in mind. Maybe they should have Crowds arrive at their Homes (like they did at the Homes of the Supreme Court Members) who will make life miserable for them until they get it through their Thick Heads they better vote NO on this Bill!

Spending bills must start in the House. Why can the Senate spend so much in a bill originating there? The House can stop this madness by cutting off the money.

If you are not going to stop illegals at the border, then quit making me, an actual taxpaying US citizen with a passport, wait in line at the airport when I come back from a trip. I should be able to waltz on by without being subject to the slightest scrutiny or questioning,
I think of this every single time I return from a trip.

Face it, folks. America's white middle class, that is you and me, is being replaced with an uneducated illegal underclass who are coming here with no job skills, low expectations and will vote democrat because their basic needs - food, water, clothing, and housing will all be provided to them at no cost by guess who - the federal government. They will be compliant and vote as they are told.
One-party rule by the uniparty is the objective and this will be the new Amerika. Now you should understand why the rino pubbies have been so quiet. Divide and conquer is working perfectly. And Turtle and company are right in there making it happen. The Great Reset and New World Order is coming to Amerika. And in time, us old-school conservatives will pass on. Then, voila. Job done.
Sadly, our children and grandchildren will come to realize what has happened to them after it is too late.
By the way, does anybody know how the truckers rally at the southern border went this past weekend?

We are told that the purpose of this proposal is to provide “workers” for our needs or convenience. Agreed, it is difficult to find anyone to replace even a shingle or doorstep. This is not because there are no fit people available. Most young people no longer choose to work, either because parents support them endlessly, or some program finds a reason to keep them idle. This is more noticeable as we age, and things we formerly did ourselves are no longer physically possible. Unfortunately, “immigrants”, legal or not, don’t choose to do physical work either. They are happily supported by magical programs funded by endless government produced, that is, Borrowed, resources. A happy ending to this situation is hard to imagine.

Looks like proposed billions of dollars for the Democrat aligned nongovernmental organizations (NGOS) that have been encouraging and inviting masses of illegal aliens to come into the USA unlawfully. The more illegal aliens those NGOS that are in cahoots with Biden and the leftist and socialist Democrats facilitate to enter the USA unlawfully, the more of that money they get. Additionally it gives Biden the authority to hire unlimited numbers of leftist and socialist Democrat attorneys and operatives who support mass uncontrolled illegal immigration as the US government officials who will decide future asylum cases. In other words this bill hands many billions of dollars to leftist and socialist Democrats and allows Biden to eliminate any borderline security measures as he wishes to wave unlimited numbers of illegal aliens into the USA as he decides and we know how that has been since he assumed office. This bill is all political, to the benefit of the leftist and socialist Democrat “open borders” schemes and the future leftist and socialist Democrat political agenda to create tens of millions of leftist and socialist Democrat supporters and voters by way of a series of future Democrat designed “path to citizenship” amnesties that the leftist and socialist Democrats plan to grant the the many millions of poor and uneducated Third World origin illegal aliens, who the leftist and socialist Democrats consider to be minority group members in accordance with Democrat identity politics. This is all political and the funny thing is that the wimpy Republicans for the most part don’t have a clue, or are afraid to alert the American people on the true effects of this leftist and socialist Democrat support and voter creation bill. Note that this morning presenters on the Fox News Channel this morning have been touting that Democrat bill as a possible solution to the border crisis, that it is not, and instead will encourage and invite millions of new illegal aliens, with help from leftist and socialist Democrat aligned NGOS funded through this bill to bring millions of new illegal aliens into the USA. This bill is like telling US cities that they can’t investigate Bank Robberies until their cities experience so many Bank Robberies within a certain period of time.

Here is the very sad state of our government. Right now only 18 Republican senators are openly opposed to this bill. Know what that means? There are 50 Democrat senators that will ABSOLUTELY vote for this atrocity and 32 Republicans that might.
