Well, NO. Lankford tried to sell out his party and his country to the special interests and got burned for it. His state GOP, the Oklahoma Republican Party has withdrawn all support for the traitor Lankford.

As far as governing, anyone not under your tunnel vision can look at the records on just about any issue to see that Trump was successful in governing and Biden has been a miserable failure. Look at the polls on issues, and the public definitely prefers Trump's governance over Biden's. Illegal immigration is only one issue with a huge difference between Trump's success in governing and Biden's failure.

Reality is what it is. If those 22 million run out of water they are going to be on the move.

Your leftie talking points may be telling you that, but in the real world, voters with their eyes open see what Bidenomics is really doing to them, like a 20% decline in the value of a dollar during the Biden regime. Check out the polling on the economy and you will find that most Americans do not agree with your leftie talking points, Bobbie.

Realistically, the Democrats in the Senate will block vote against any impeachment of any Biden official, so that is always going to be a dead end street, unfortunately.

The Biden DOJ has charged people with "election interference" for some pretty crazy things like the humorist they convicted for a satire he published that blasted the Democrats for watering down election laws in 2020. In doing so, they have opened the door to prosecute people like Fani Willis, Letitia James, and Jack Smith for much more substantial abuse of power for election interference.

Lankford was one of those who negotiated the immigration sellout, but did not "write" the bill. What he did was cave in to the Democrats. Lankford is NOT a "hard core conservative", but is a poster boy for term limits because the longer he has been in DC, the more he was become a member of the swamp, a full fledged "Chamber of Commerce Republican". The Chamber has been correctly described as "the mother of all special interest groups" and backs crony capitalism over free enterprise. The Chamber also has always backed open borders and amnesty for illegal aliens.

Lankford outted himself as an open borders fruitcake when he made a statement right after that sellout that he "loved all immigrants, legal and illegal equally". Trying to put these arrogant lawbreaking illegal aliens on the same level as those who do it the right way is a huge insult to legal immigrants and an outright attack on the rule of law.

Check this out. Did you know Mexico City is within 3 months of running out of water? A city of 22 million and no water. Guess what direction those people will be heading?

Say what you will but it was written by a hard core conservative who still cant believe ya'll turned on him. Like I say:
MAGA- eats there own. You cant trust any of them because they are in it for themselves.

Gun rights supporters need to always remember who it was who killed Constitutional Carry in NC in the last legislative session. That was liberal State Senate boss Phil Berger. Berger has just gotten away with imposing his choice of State Senator, RINO Bob Brinson, on our district. Brinson claimed to support gun rights, but all the money Berger sent his way means he is now OWNED by Berger, lock, stock, and barrel and whenever Berger says "jump", Brinson will have to ask "how high?" A really sad day for our district.

This huge overspending is one of the major factors driving inflation. Can't Speaker Johnson and some of these stupid and cowardly RINOs see that? And some of the pork in this bill is just disgusting like $850,000 got s gay senior home, $15 million for tuition for Egyptian college students in Egypt, $400,000 for a gay activist group to teach elementary school students about being trans, $500,000 for a DEI zoo (whatever that means), and $400.000 to a group that gives clothes to teens to help hide their gender. Why are American taxpayers paying for ANY of that crap? But I agree that opening up welfate to illegal aliens is worse than all of that combined.

Yes, Van Zant, the NC delegation sucks big time over voting for this excrement sandwich. Dan Bishop has been the only consistent conservative and he is leaving to run for Attorney General.

There is a lot of awful stuff in this bill, and the worst is opening more social services to illegal aliens, when we should be doing all we can to restrict illegal aliens from getting any of that money. Iceland and Denmark have CUT welfare to illegal aliens to discourage them from trying to come. These idiots in Congress are just creating more incentive for illegal aliens to crash our border. The bill did add a handful of new border agents and a handful of new illegal alien detention beds, but that little bit does not balance what they have done to give more welfare to these migrant parasites. Speaker Johnson has sold us down the river. Shameful.

It is too close to the November election to dump Johnson now, but he needs to be dumped when Congress reconvenes in January.
