What's funny is while jobs are supposedly up, skilled trades are hurting ... to a point where industry is importing from all corners of the world to fill high trained jobs. Learn to weld and you are set for life in other words.

He has a point. I think tying them together was Speaker Johnson's idea. So, in response, the Senate comes up with a plan where border and Ukraine/Israel are joined at the hip sending it to the house where it is not going to pass. Do I have that right?

Two critical issues facing this congress are being held hostage to politics, specifically, Rs not wanting to give Biden a success during an election year. IOW, fuck American interests on the global and nationals stage.

The bill would probably pass the House if it's actually put up for a vote. Crenshaw already said he was in favor of it. Got to be a handful of other R's in risky seats who'd go for it. That's why GOP leadership vows to not let a vote even happen.

And yes, Trump obviously wants the border to stay as bad as possible until the election.

Lankford pointing out Mike Lee's insincerity and non-seriousness in this piece.

************************

Lankford during an appearance on “Fox & Friends” also responded to the scathing criticism of the legislation by Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah), who panned the proposal Sunday as the “Border Capitulation Bill” and more bluntly as a “crap-sandwich of a border bill.”

Lankford noted that Lee had previously insisted on giving senators at least three weeks to review the 370-page bill but is expressing opposition after having less than a day to study it.

“He needs three weeks to be able to read it, but he’s already opposed to it. So again, people have to be able to read it and go through it themselves. Don’t just go off of Facebook post somewhere on what the bill says,” Lankford said.

fwiw, the Border Patrol union (no fans of Biden and who endorsed Trump in 2020) just came out in favor of the Border bill and said it's better than the status quo.

Biden was the one who tied them together. He figured he would get the Ukraine aid if he PROMISED to do something about the border.

Biden doesn't need Republicans to fix the border. Just go back to the Trump policies that were in place when he took over.

That is not true, Jeff. If Biden wants success on the border in an election year, all he has to do is to institute Trump's border policies that he overturned by EXECUTIVE ORDER. This could be solved by Biden alone.

What this is is the Dems taking in so many illegal Democrats that they will be able to establish a one-party state when (not if) they give citizenship to all the illegals. Why does anyone here want a one-party state?

The House has already passed its border plan; HR 2. This Senate abomination just turns an invasion into a legal matter of taking "only" 5,000 illegal Democrats daily.
