The US House has passed the Laken Riley Act, named in honor of the Georgia nursing student recently kidnapped and murdered by an illegal alien from Venezuela that the Biden regime had released into the country, and had previously been arrested on other criminal charges. The bill mandates that the Department of Homeland Security detain all illegal aliens who commit crimes. All Republicans were joined by 37 Democrats in passing the bill, while 170 Democrats voted against it. It will now go to the Democrat-run US Senate where its fate is uncertain.

The Lankford sellout was NOT a "compromise". It was a betrayal that tried to legitimize Biden's distortions of our immigration laws and created incentives for more illegal aliens to come. Instead of solving anything, it just made the situation on the border worse. No wonder the Oklahoma GOP has censured Lankford and cut off all support to him.
Legitimizing Biden's bastardization of illegal immigration was LESS than nothing. It was going backward. The Democrats' idea of a "compromise is doing it all or mostly their way, with maybe a few bribes for Republican sellouts thrown in. Lankford has always been a Chamber of Commerce doofus on illegal immigration. McConnell sending him to "negotiate" was a signal that what McConnell really wanted to do was surrender, which was what he tried to do. If McConnell really wanted to get something worthwhile out of the discusions he would have sent a fighter like Ted Cruz or J.D. Vance to negotiate, not a pathetic surrender monkey like Lankford. |

So what. You can’t get it to pass. Instead of compromising and getting something, you take the ball and go home.
Like a spoiled child. You don’t have the votes for HR2. So you took nothing. Stop crying. |

Republicans in the House are still pressing for real action on illegal immigration. The latest is the just-introduced "Build the Wall and Deport Them All Act"

Republicans are trying to do something about Biden's border disaster. The GOP House has passed a bill to secure the border, HB 1, and now a bill to deal with migrant crime, the Laken Riley Act. The Republicans are doing something, but it is the Biden Democrats who are stalling in the Senate, in conjunction with the RINO "Republicans" like Chamber of Commerce Lankford, who try to sell us out by encouraging more illegal aliens to come in. That fool was actually quoted as saying "I love all immigrants equally, legal and illegal". Those who arrogantly break our laws should NEVER be treated the same as those who properly go through the process to come legally.

The House passed HR2 months ago to take serious action to crack down on the influx of illegal aliens, but it sits in committee in the Democrat run Senate, not moving. It is the Democrats who are unable to govern. Now the House has also passed the Laken Riley Act, which I guess will also sit in limbo in the Democrat run Senate.

So like with everything else, we do nothing. Congrats !
