The one thing the Democrats have to agree with, is there’s a crisis on our southern border, and it’s getting worse. It doesn’t matter if they think it’s someone else’s fault, because the reality is, it’s theirs now. They are in charge, and the administration has had three years to deal with it. But they haven’t.
President Biden put his Vice President in charge of the problem. It was an opportunity for Kamala Harris to show she had the dedication and fortitude to tackle a problem few would ever get the opportunity to accomplish. Or have to accomplish as she might say. Either way, it didn’t get done.
That brings us to the deal brokered in the Senate. Democrats, Republicans, and Independents all were at the table. They also all signed off on the legislation that’s now heading to the full Senate. And with their support, and mostly need, it will pass. After that, it won’t matter. We’ve been told it’s dead in the house, and the reason is obvious. The man they idolize and would die for, Donald Trump, told them to kill the bill. The House Republicans will do what they’re told, so they’ll kill it on arrival.
I’ve seen enough. This bill is even worse than we expected, and won’t come close to ending the border catastrophe the President has created. As the lead Democrat negotiator proclaimed: Under this legislation, “the border never closes.”
If this bill reaches the House, it will be…

The very same group of people that demanded any funding for Ukraine include legislation protecting the border, are now getting what they wanted. If they hadn’t been told by their master what to do, I have no doubt they’d pass it.
They would have taken yes for an answer too.
Good riding with you,
