There is no border bill you moron. Read the highlights and then dig into that pile of shit for details such as, we the working American taxpayers would be required to pay for an illegals lawyer and things like Mayorkis having personal discretion as to number of illegals and how they will be handled. Shut off tom hartman and start reading from non leftie websites.
 
Actually, if you bother to read that bill, they refuse to sign on to amnesty, open borders, and letting anyone and everyone in because that's what that bill effectively does.

If you bother read about what is going on, Senate Republicans were touting the bill they now are backing away from in the wake of Trump's complaining. He's made clear he wants the problem to fester and worsen so he can yell about if for the campaign.

p.s. But that's ok. We know it can never be admitted.

Senate Republicans were touting that bill? Yeah, how many besides Longford or Langford or whatever his name is? Anyone signing on to this jerkoff bill
is anti American to the core.
 
What's in the immigration and foreign aid bill
The vast majority of the $118.2 billion bill would be spent on overseas aid rather than immigration.

That would include $60.6 billion to assist Ukraine in its ongoing war against Russia's invasion; $14.1 billion in funds for Israel in its war against Hamas' after Hamas' terror attack; $10 billion in humanitarian assistance to civilians both in Ukraine and in the Palestinian territories of Gaza and the West Bank; as well as $4.83 billion for some countries in the Indo-Pacific.

The Senate proposal also includes $20.23 billion for the southern border, to increase immigration restrictions and enforcement and implement new migrant policies.

The legislation crucially links the foreign money to immigration policy in a bid to ensure enough Republican support for it to pass through the divided Congress.

New emergency border powers
For many lawmakers, the border provisions will be the most substantial considerations in the bill.

Recent Stories from ABC News



Lankford said on ABC's "This Week" in December, amid the ongoing talks, that the eventual deal had to be broad in scope.

"There's a reason that this hasn't been done in decades, because it's hard. It's very technical work, and there's a lot of challenges that are in it. And any time you deal with border security, there are a lot of complicating features in this. ... But the most important thing is to be able to get this right," he said then.

The new legislation would give the secretary of homeland security the power to declare an emergency at the U.S.-Mexico border and to remove or deny entry to any migrant within 100 miles of that border within a period of 14 days from the date of their entry.

Under this bill, the secretary could declare such a border emergency if there is an average of 4,000 or more migrants encountered each day at the southern border over the course of seven consecutive days.

Additionally, the secretary would be required to declare an emergency if there's an average of 5,000 or more migrants encountered each day for seven consecutive days or if on any one day there are more than 8,500 encounters.

There are exceptions, including for unaccompanied children and any unauthorized immigrant that Border Patrol agents believe should be excused for humanitarian or other reasons. (House Republican leaders said Monday that these proposed powers were "riddled with loopholes.")

What's more, the bill would make modifications to so-called "catch and release" by requiring detention or mandatory supervision of all migrants processed at the border, though Republican critics said it was unacceptable for some migrants to be able to leave physical custody.

Under the Senate legislation, there also remains a mandate to process some asylum claims at ports of entry.

The secretary would be required to suspend any new border emergency after migrant encounters drop to less than 75% of what they were when the emergency was triggered for seven consecutive days. The president would also have the power to immediately suspend the border emergency for no more than 45 days at any time.

But there are some restrictions on this provision: The border shutdown could only last up to 45 days at a time and couldn't be used for more than 270 days in the first year.

The bill also aims to disincentivize crossings by barring those who try to cross illegally more than twice during a declared emergency from entering the U.S. for a year.

There is significant additional funding to beef up immigration review, including $440 million to hire additional immigration judge teams and to increase the capacity of the immigration courts to expeditiously process and adjudicate cases.

The package includes millions of more dollars to combat human trafficking, enhance security at the border, assist the FBI in addressing the growing backlog of DNA samples collected from migrants and provide millions to help disrupt and dismantle cartels.

There are also changes to the asylum system to expedite consideration of asylum claims. This would be done by adjudicating asylum claims through asylum officers rather than the immigration courts, easing the backlog that causes many cases to take years to be processed.

The bill would heighten screening standards, making it harder to make an asylum claim.

The legislative package would take more steps toward addressing the flow of fentanyl by authorizing Sen. Tim Scott's entire FEND Off Fentanyl Act to impose sanctions on groups and nations that participate in the distribution of the ultra-deadly opioid.

Scott's proposal would require the president to prepare a list of possible entities to sanction but does not specify who.

Additionally, the immigration deal includes a path to permanent legal status for Afghan nationals evacuated from their country after the U.S. withdrawal in 2021.

Go get the words in the text of the bill
 
Illegals and immigrants are the only campaign issue the crook has. He has stirred up haters and those easily scared enough to make him competitive in spite of that he has lost every single court case and more to come. Trump is a terrible person, corrupt and dangerous. Let's vote him in and end the great American experiment.
 
Trump is doing Magat talk shows and stating definitively that he did not endorse James Langsford. Of course their is a big shiny endorsement from Trump, thru Save America PAC saying trump fully endorses Langsford and his reason is praising him for his border positions.





You can't make this shit up.

I would say it is yet another Trump lie, but honestly, at this point, it could easily be dementia.
 
Republi'cans' historically have been the ones crying the loudest about Dem POTUS doing things with the stroke of a pen (EO) instead of doing it thru Congress with proper legislation.

Why? Because anything done by a POTUS with the stroke of the pen can just be undone by the next one. it is a band aide and not solution, in the way legislation is.

And yet now Magats says 'we do not want any legislation. We want rule by POTUS pen'.

But the Magats do not understand that Biden can no more close the border than Trump could.

All wrong, but what is the sense, “copy and paste” seldom understands what he is talking about, why he has to rely on copying and pasting
