Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) is retreating from his prior support for a border bill that would help President Joe Biden import more migrants and also hide the huge damage caused by his easy-migration policies.
TheHill.com reported: “I think the border portion is dead,” said one Republican senator, who cited McConnell’s remarks to the GOP conference at the Wednesday meeting. The lawmaker said that McConnell told GOP senators “this has gotten to be a lot more politically difficult than he thought it would be.”
“MCCONNELL told a closed meeting of Senate Republicans Wed[nesday afternoon] that the politics of the border has flipped for R[epublicans]s

Apparently, a few rino senators heard a roar from constituents and told McConnell they cannot vote for the border sellout bill.

Years ago, radio host Michael Savage nailed this on his 'Savage Nation' talk show.
He stated that the Democ'RAT party and the Republican party were the two wings of a bird of prey that was tearing our country to pieces.
Trump and the MAGA Republicans like Ted Cruz, Jim Jordan, Louis Gohmert, Tom Cotton are using the Republican party machinery, but I think they are not part of the core Republican party 'Establishment', the 'China Mitch' and 'Mittens' Romney party insiders who are -behind closed doors- in cahoots with the Democ'RATS.
An example of this is the effort to buy off Kari Lake, that has come to light just in the last few days.
As George Carlin said, many years ago:
"It's a Big Club, and YOU ain't in it."

Just shows you how out of touch Mitch is that he thought the American people would go along with this.

Historically, the turtle just assumed that he could roll over everybody like a big fat bulldozer. These are different times and the OG is running into a brick wall. We have a Constitution and it's time to use it. It there is some violence involved, oh well...

My, my. What a difference a day makes. So, I'm guessing that Turtle is now making restitution for having given the go-order to DeWit to try and bribe Kari Lake into not running for US Senate? In exchange, the dims and MAGA pubbies in the US Senate have agreed not to prosecute Turtle for public corruption. This could all be a stretch or is it really.

first, make him irrelevant and then sentence him to a back bench seat in the senate .... then,
- maybe that will send the message to him that he is no longer needed in the party and
- give the RINO's a very clear message that they had better get with the program or else they're next

McConnell was more than happy to give up border security for more Ukraine money. The military industrial complex trumps everything. This bill allowed 5000 illegals PER DAY to enter the country and be given amnesty. Still illegal and impossible to control. This doesn’t even come close to border control. This is permission. He is a doddering craven fool who is a traitor to his country and should be shown the door.

When the vast majority of Republican voters all over the country oppose mass uncontrolled illegal immigration, and Biden's "open borders" and "catch and release" policies, that in effect facilitate mass uncontrolled illegal immigration, with those policies being contrary to the immigration laws passed by Congress, being used as political tools by Biden and the leftist and socialist Democrats to flood the USA with Third World origin poor and uneducated illegal aliens (migrants) by the millions, who once in the USA are considered to be members of minority groups in accordance with Democrat identity politics.
So why would McConnell who is the Republican Leader in the US Senate and some Senate RINOS have supported their old Senate buddy Biden's proposed deal, that amounts to an unlimited open borders amnesty, to supposedly "secure the borderline" by essentially legalizing 5,000 illegal aliens crossing the borderline unlawfully everyday on into the future, amounting to 1,825,000 illegal aliens per year, before the US Border Patrol could take law enforcement actions in accordance with the immigration laws passed by Congress? Is that stupid or what?Remember those illegal aliens would be the 5,000 illegal aliens who turn themselves in to the Border Patrol after they unlawfully enter the USA everyday on into the future and claim that they wish to seek asylum in the USA, who under the Biden non-enforcement of the immigration laws policies would released into the USA. and does not count the unlimited numbers of illegal aliens who unlawfully enter the USA everyday who do not turn themselves in to the Border Patrol and are referred to as being "got aways" many of who are foreign criminals, and who once in the interior of the USA are "home free" as Biden has stopped all immigration law enforcement measure throughout the USA.
Biden is a 101% corrupt partisan political career DC Democrat politician who since assuming office has been following the extreme leftist and socialist Democrat political agenda that includes "open borders and "catch and release" policies to flood the USA with as many illegal aliens as possible. That has been done deliberately by Biden and the leftist and socialist Democrats to create what they believe will be tens of millions of future leftist and socialist Democrat foreign born supporters and voters, after they legalize the entire illegal alien population in the USA by way of a Democrat designed series of "path to citizenship" amnesties and other legalization programs. Biden and the leftist and socialist Democrats know that they can capture the future support and votes of tens of millions of such legalized aliens by promising them to allow them full access to all US social welfare and healthcare programs and to bring their extended foreign families into the USA, that would amount to tens of millions of additional Third World origin aliens entering the USA, a process that would never end. Another reason that the leftist and socialist Democrats are supporting mass uncontrolled illegal immigration is to substantially change the population demographics of as much of the USA as possible to ultimately transform the USA into a minority-majority country and voters who the leftist and socialist Democrats believe will keep them in permanent political power controlling both the Congress and the White House, thus sending the wimpy Republicans into political oblivion.

Since the broken deal made during Reagan in the 80s, "our" government has done NOTHING about the border other than President Trump, who was impeded in every way. What makes any of these legacy FRAUDS think we will trust them now.

#10 is close to my first thought at reading the headline.... I wonder if this explains the timing for the release of the recording of the attempt 'by the big guys back east' to bribe Kari Lake to stay out of politics.
I'd like to know how big a bribe it would take for 'the big guys back east' to get out and stay out of politics.

I heard that close to no one had seen/read the text of the bill; though, that may be the norm. The more aware you are of how little gets done in Congress, the more you come to the conclusion that that's because they never do anything.
