A Republican Senator just let the cat out of the bag. Senator James Lankford (R-OK) went on MSNBC and admitted that he was working with a bipartisan group of Senators in secret to put together an immigration bill.
Does their new proposal approve Donald Trump's border wall? No. The plan would include partial funding for a border fence, but no actual approval for the project to move forward.
But do you know what this surrender plan does include? A pathway to citizenship for millions of illegal aliens.
Lankford was too afraid to reveal who else was working on it. But he is confident that they will have the votes when it comes to the floor.
This comes on the heels of Paul Ryan giving in and agreeing to hold a vote on a clean amnesty bill. The GOP conference is meeting this coming week to decide on which immigration bill to send to the floor. If Ryan doesn't cave, then moderate Republicans are prepared to force a vote on Obama's Dream Act.
But then, Donald Trump threw down the gauntlet last night. He doubled down and threatened to veto any bill that does not include border wall funding and his other immigration demands. Even if that means shutting down the government.
President Trump is standing up to these cowards, but he can't do it alone!
What we have right now is a high-speed game of chicken. Ryan and McConnell are committed to holding a vote on the left's immigration bill. After years of fighting Obama's amnesty push and even taking him to court, they are now rushing to rubber stamp Obama's amnesty proposal.
This is the bill that Hillary Clinton promised would get passed if she had won: complete amnesty for Obama's illegals and only token funding for border security.
The question I have for you is simple: Is this what you voted for?
Honestly, is this why you fought so hard to take this country back?
The answer, at least from where I'm standing, is a resounding "no." But that doesn't mean we give up. That doesn't mean we accept defeat.
This means that we have to fight harder than ever before!
President Trump is ordering the GOP establishment to stand down. He gave them an ultimatum: pass his immigration proposal -- including full funding for the wall -- or else he will veto the bill, shut down the government, let the Dreamers' amnesty expire, and begin deportations.
Right now, there are 213 signatures on a discharge petition to force an amnesty vote in Congress. If five more Republicans surrender, the Left will finally get to vote on Obama's amnesty bill. They claim to already have the necessary votes...
Paul Ryan is scrambling to stop this from happening. But instead of holding the line, he is trying to "compromise" and give the Left what they want anyway. To him, this isn't about protecting the country. He is only interested in protecting his reputation and legacy...
The Republican leadership is now convening a party meeting this coming week. There, Ryan, McConnell, and the leadership will decide whether to honor their oaths or team up with the Democrats. They are literally going to put this surrender plan to a vote.
We stopped Barack Obama. We stopped Nancy Pelosi. We stopped Harry Reid. We even stopped John Boehner from caving on amnesty.
Now, it is time to stop the GOP once again before it's too late!
Sincerely,
