Not only is there the division that is occurring from the Donald Trump/Ron DeSantis battle, but there is something else brewing.
Three GOP dissenters have surfaced over cracking down on illegal immigration.
Traitors
Why every Republican is not on board with locking down the border is baffling to me.
Yet, here we stand, with three defectors.
The three individual are: Reps. Don Bacon (R-NE), Tony Gonzales (R-TX), and Maria Elvira Salazar (R-TX).
Mark Morgan, who served as chief of Border Patrol and acting commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection, stated, “It shocks me that a border security bill hasn’t been introduced that would get full Republican support.
“It should have been H.R. 1 [the first bill of the new Congress].”
On the legislation that Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) presented, he stated, “It’s a commonsense bill that requires the Biden administration to enforce the law, has consequences for those who violate it, and ends catch and release.
“It doesn’t include everything but at least puts us a step in the right direction.”
Lora Ries, who spent several years serving in various roles at DHS, stated, “I have to say Gonzales before the election and him now is a stark 180.
“This seems to be a power move for him in the House.
“And I’ve got to say, the people of Texas, the people of America deserve a lot better. They were lied to.”
Gonzales responded, “H.R. 29 is all hat and no cattle.
“It would essentially prevent legal asylum claims such as migrants fleeing religious or political persecution from a safe haven in the United States.
“Not only is this radical position un-American; it would worsen our border crisis and incentivize human smugglers to continue sneaking people into our country illegally.
“Instead of messaging on a bill that has 0.00% chance of passing into law we should fix the root problems of our broken immigration system.”
In reality, nothing the House passes will get through the Senate or signed by Joe Biden, but they need to get together on a solidified front to put something up there to force Joe Biden and Democrats’ hands.
If they can do that, they have something to sell to the American people in 2024.
