Axios: "Trump, Republicans Plot to Kill Border Deal"
The verb plot connotes secrecy and skulduggery.
But Trump and the anti-"deal" Republicans are announcing their position and their intent publicly, with no deception. But Axios, aka Politico for Kidz!, thinks it's just generally underhanded to oppose leftwing Democrat propagandists and traitors.Republican and Democratic senators are taking to the airwaves, scrambling to pass severe restrictions on migrants flooding across the U.S.-Mexico border. There's just one thing: Their plan is all but dead. Why it matters: The Senate might pass the plan, which would be one of the harshest immigration bills of the century.It's so harsh that it writes into law that 150,000 illegals are allowed to enter the country in a 30-day month without fear of deportation.
President Biden is ready to sign it. But House Republicans -- egged on by former President Trump -- already are planning to shut it down.Mike Johnson announced it was "dead on arrival" before Trump made any statements about it.
State of play: Illegal immigration has rocketed to the top of voters' concerns, and Biden has become increasingly desperate for a solution. Trump and conservative Republicans see a political opportunity to squeeze Biden and Democrats on the issue.This is the treasonous propaganda line: Everyone knows this is a great bill which will "fix the border," but nasty Republicans oppose it just to deny Biden credit for "fixing the border." The fact that it includes no money for a wall, does not authorize deportations except in very narrow circumstances and only for limited time periods, and does not narrow the grounds for making Fake Asylum claims don't count. Biden says this is a perfect bill and you should believe him, he's never lied or raped an employee before.
Interesting that Johnson said this Friday and Trump make his statement Saturday but Johnson "fell in line" with a statement that would be made in the future. Karen Armstrong writes that Jill Biden is out on the campaign trail in place of her invalid rapist husband, making the same case that Republicans know this bill is just So Awesome but are opposing it just to hurt Joe Biden.
Trump, whose front-runner status in the Republican presidential race has solidified his leadership of the GOP, has loudly vowed to kill the bipartisan border deal. "It's not going to happen, and I'll fight it all the way," Trump said Saturday in Nevada. Zoom in: House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) has fallen in line. He called the deal "dead on arrival" on Friday, then doubled down over the weekend, claiming it wouldn't do enough to stop illegal border crossings.
Via the Daily Mail:
'You see what happened today with the border, and now Trump is trying to do everything he can to make Joe look bad, you know, even at the lives -- sacrificing lives of so many people just for his own political gain,' she told donors to her husband's re-election campaign. 'I know it's early to start, but I want you to sort of think after you leave tonight that yes, I am committed to a democracy. And yes, I'm going to fight as hard as I can and not let anything like 2016 happen again.'You mean, you're going to fight to make sure we don't have a fair and free election? Yes we already knew that. The Daily Mail points out that Joe Biden's immigration policy is... largely shaped by "Doctor" Jill Biden.
Over the weekend, a group of former FBI officials wrote an urgent letter to Joe Biden informing him that the terrorists freely flowing across the open border presented a clear and present danger to US citizens' lives.
Biden's border policy has been particularly influenced by the first lady, his advisors told the Wall Street Journal, because of her reaction to the Trump administration's policy of family separations and his 'Remain in Mexico' program. During the 2020 campaign, Jill Biden visited a tent camp of migrants living just across the southern border in Matamoros, Mexico.
This is not a hypothetical concern.
The Biden administration's border policy poses an "imminent danger" to the US, which has been "invaded" by "military-aged men from around the globe," a group of former FBI officials warned. In a letter sent Jan. 17 to leaders in the House and Senate, 10 former FBI senior executives said the migrant crisis is " the most pernicious ever to menace the United States. "In its modern history, the US has never suffered an invasion of the homeland, and yet one is unfolding now," according to the officials, which included former Terrorist Screening Center Director Timothy Healy, FBI assistant directors Kevin Brock and Chris Swecker, and Mark Morgan, the former acting commissioner US Customs and Border Protection who also an ex-FBI superintendent. "Military-aged men from across the globe, many from countries or regions not friendly to the United States are landing in waves on our soil by the thousands -- not by splashing ashore from a ship or parachuting from a plane but rather by foot across a border that has been accurately advertised around the world as largely unprotected and with ready access granted," the letter continued. The matter is even more pressing than ever, particularly after the Oct. 7 terrorist attack by Hamas on Israel, they warned. "It is stark to say so, but having a large number of young males now within our borders who could begin attacking gatherings of unarmed citizens, in imitation of 10/7 and at the behest of a foreign terror group, must be considered a distinct possibility," the officials wrote. "We would be remiss not to call out this potentially grave threat in the most direct terms. The warning lights are blinking." ... And all the more stunning in light of terrorist attacks on our own soil, said New York Rep. Nicole Malliotakis. "It's shocking that in a post 9/11 world that the Biden administration would have an open border policy with such lax vetting," she said. "They are even allowing people with no real identification to board airplanes, which is directly against the 9/11 Commission recommendations."
Federal authorities caught a terrorist at the U.S. southern border and released him into the country, where he roamed freely for nearly a year before being arrested in Minnesota just days ago, according to an internal federal memo exclusively obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation. The unnamed individual, who the memo only identifies as a member of the Somali terror group al-Shabaab, was released shortly after being caught illegally crossing the southern border near San Ysidro, California on March 13, 2023, according to the memo, which the DCNF is not publishing in order to protect the identity of a confidential source. The Terrorist Screening Center "deemed him a 'mismatch'" after running his name through the terror watchlist, according to the memo, which was sent to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials. However, on January 18, 2024, the Terrorist Screening Center "made a redetermination" that the individual was "a confirmed member of al-Shabaab" and was involved in the use, manufacture or transport of explosives or firearms, the memo states. Two days later, ICE nabbed the al-Shabaab member in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Border Patrol caught 172 terror watchlist suspects attempting to enter the U.S. illegally during fiscal year 2023. Former homeland security officials say the constant deluge of illegal immigrants hitting the southern border is making it easier for bad actors to slip into the country.

It's a new one.
"Pouncing" and "seizing" is for when the press can't hide the fact that the Democrats screwed up. So the story is about how mean the Republicans are for noticing the screw-up.
They're determined to pretend the Democrats are in the right here, so it's a Republican "plot" to stop the righteous Democrats, to highlight how EVILLLLLL the Republicans are.

If this goes on, it will utterly transform the United States, which of course is the point.

You can tell they know this is a huge issue in Trump's favor.
Notice how, for decades they dressed their amnesty up as "comprehensive immigration reform" but now it's "border security?"
This bill has as much to do with border security as a whore has to do with chastity.

Wouldn't they have to implement a new visa to make that work and then they wouldn't be illegal...
Or is this like a land/border rush that starts at midnight the first of each month....they'd line up along the border and when that clock strikes midnight they run across and try to get to the "safety flags" first.
...with time it would become "Death Race 3000" with souped up armored vehicles with weapons to take out competition

I saw an interview with Chris Swecker, one the letter's authors, the other day. If you aren't familiar with him he's been retired for a bit and a fierce critic of the Comey FBI and everything since.
He claims that they had dozens of other retired intel folks who wanted to sign the letter but they wanted to keep the number to a manageable number so it didn't look like a publicity stunt. He is deadly serious about the threat and for obvious reasons.
Biden has allowed thousands, maybe as many as a million, military age single men from places like the Middle East, Africa and China to flood into this country and we have no idea where any of them are. You'd have to be a naive idiot to think some of them weren't sent here as sleepers. Biden practically invited them.

It lays bare the hypocrisy that is a quest for authoritarianism and Christian nationalism, a cruel, dehumanizing ideology. There are no issues, only the quest for absolute power to harm their imagined opponents.
The border has never been anything more than a talking point for republicans. They had a supermajority under trump, and all they did was separate parents from their children, then lose track of where the various family members went. Caravans of migrants magically appear right before November elections, then -- just as magically -- disappear right after the election, never to be heard of again until the next election comes around.
Biden is crushing it. The economy, stock market, manufacturing jobs, STEM jobs, union support, etc. The GOP, for decades, has only run on fear campaigns and we FINALLY called their bluff on the border.

There may be a reason why Trump wasn’t given the opportunity to adequately defend himself. It appears that Judge Lewis A. Kaplan, who presided over the case, may have a major conflict of interest.
The New York Post has learned that Kaplan was once a “mentor” to Carroll’s lawyer, Roberta Kaplan. The two aren’t related, but they worked together in the early 1990s at the law firm Paul, Weiss, Rifkin, Wharton & Garrison in Midtown.
In a letter filed on Monday, Trump’s lawyer, Alina Habba, demanded answers:
If Your Honor truly worked with Ms. Kaplan in any capacity—especially if there was a mentor/mentee relationship—that fact should have been disclosed before any case involving these parties was permitted to proceed forward. This issue is particularly concerning since Plaintiff’s other lead counsel, Shawn Crowley, served as Your Honor’s law clerk, and we were previously advised that Your Honor co-officiated her wedding. 28 U.S.C. Section 455(a) states that “[a]ny… judge … of the United States shall disqualify himself in any proceeding in which his impartiality might reasonably be questioned.”

This part is true. The Uni-party GOP has had many chances to fix border immigration issues and failed b/c they wanted "comprehensive immigration reform" = which was amnesty. The GOP wants open borders and amnesty and legalization.
Even if Trump wins the WH, he'll still be fighting an uphill battle against the GOP's desire for open borders and amnesty. That's why they fought against the wall, etc. last time around. Mitch McConnell wants an open border. Period, end of story.

Everyone who heads a field office wants to end up running something in DC. To run something in DC, you have to do what the people in DC would want.
To get those things done, you have to tell your agents to do the things that DC would want done. To keep working as an agent, you have to do the things that DC would want done.

So was the old one. The "Old FBI" gave us (in no particular order) Whitey Bulger, Waco, the "militia" panics, entrapment schemes, political hit-jobs, cover-ups and diversion after diversion as they refused to permit anything approaching transparency or accountability.
The FBI - and Justice more broadly - is a rotten borough and it has been for decades at least.

The real point, which was fairly gentle, but genius up there missed it completely, is that there ARE people who are fighting this thing... like whichever agents Texas is putting on the border.
So even though Hey "Standup" Abbott had to be dragged, kicking and screaming into the fight, that's what is going to stop this stuff now, not more words by a nice, Christian boy like Johnson.

>>Rick Scott wants to be a leader in the Senate still, it seems.
Rick Scott is just as big a doofus snake as McConnell is, he's a backbencher who's trying get off the bench for his own ends.
Basically, the only senator I trust is Rand Paul and that's it.

Me too.
But, Rick Scott seemingly won't oppose Trump or conservatism at every angle every moment of every day, especially since it was Trump who first encouraged Scott to do a leadership run against McConnell in 2023.

One of the forgotten little bits of news from early 2023 was that Mitch did not get the final, unanimous vote for his leadership that is standard if there is an actual leadership contention.
The handful (my guess would be roughly 15, but it's just a guess) of Senators who refused to vote for him simply wouldn't give him the satisfaction of supporting him at all and denying him that victory.
I think the hatred of McConnell is pretty deep within the Republican caucus. He just controls too much money so he buys slightly more loyalty than hatred he engenders.
Posted by: TheJamesMadison, walking with hope in America with Frank Capra at January 30, 2024 03:24 PM (GBKbO)
>>Me too.
While I might not always agree with Paul, his arguments for his positions are defensible and he's never, ever come across as duplicitous or underhanded.
And as far as Scott goes, the dude looks and sounds like a reptile.
I don't trust that dude.

Tip for the horde - get electrolyte powders against dehydration. They make a huge difference in recovery. I bought a few packs from Amazon at about a dollar a pop. Good investment. Publius' soon-to-be 94 mama was getting disoriented after a bout of flu-like illness and the electrolytes perked her right up. She takes them almost every day now. Dehydration is a root cause for many symptoms, especially in the elderly.
Not that any of you are elderly, of course!

We would do better if we only elected to Congress ophthalmologists who did charity eye surgeries every year.
I trust Rick Scott more than I trust McConnell. That is, I'd trust him to drive by my house while on vacation to make sure it wasn't broken into, unlike with Mitch whom I wouldn't tell I was on vacation because he'd break in and steal my shit.

I really need to shut my yap at work, but I couldn't help commenting to a "severely conservative" partner (who probably thinks Mitt Romney is a true statesman) that 1) Biden already has executive power to close the border, always has, 2) the "reform" would allow 150K illegals PER MONTH to traipse on in, and 3) maybe if throwing more money at the Ukes is so important to "defending a democracy" (his words) then it should have been separated out from this abortion of a bill. He didn't have a good response.
And these people think they're "conservative."
