Who cares what Charlamagne thinks about anything???

Remind me, who voted against the bi-partisan immigration bill?

HR2: Legislative Deceit and Corruption Rep. Byron Donalds has once again proven himself to be a shamelessly dishonest man, showcasing the corruption at the core of our legislative process. HR2, the bill supposedly addressing immigration and border security, is a masterclass in deceit, filled with loopholes and half-measures designed to let dishonest Republican lawmakers dodge accountability. This bill is a cynical ploy, hiding behind legal jargon and omissions to enable the right-leaning Supreme Court to protect these fraudsters come election time. Blatant Dishonesty and Manipulation Donalds and his cronies have crafted HR2 to be as ambiguous and litigation-prone as possible, ensuring that the conservative SCOTUS can interpret the law in their favor. This is nothing short of legislative cowardice, allowing them to strut before their base while setting up a safety net to avoid blame for the bill’s inevitable failings. They’re not interested in real solutions, only in preserving their own hides. Crucial Omissions: Calculated Deceit The bill’s omissions are glaring and deliberate. It says nothing about the rampant gun smuggling from the U.S., which fuels violence across the border. There’s no diplomatic framework for returning migrants, focusing solely on militarizing the U.S.-Mexico border while ignoring other points of entry. This tunnel vision approach is not an oversight; it’s a strategic choice to maintain a simplistic narrative for their supporters. Ignoring Sanctions and Migrant Flow HR2 completely ignores the impact of U.S. sanctions in driving migration. These economic sanctions contribute directly to the conditions forcing people to flee their homes. Instead of addressing these root causes with intelligent, humane solutions like sanctions relief, the bill opts for draconian measures that will do nothing to stem the flow of desperate migrants. This isn’t just ignorance; it’s willful neglect. Human Rights Be Damned The bill’s provisions on asylum are a slap in the face to human rights. Limiting asylum to those who arrive at designated ports of entry is a heartless move that will leave many vulnerable individuals without protection. Expanding the list of crimes that disqualify someone from asylum to include minor offenses is nothing more than a thinly veiled attempt to shut the door on those in need. This isn’t about security; it’s about cruelty. The Insidious Prohibition on State Licensing Requirements Perhaps the most egregious aspect of HR2 is the prohibition on state licensing requirements for detention facilities. This is a blatant attempt to strip away any oversight, allowing these facilities to operate with impunity. Without state regulations, these centers can become hotbeds of abuse and neglect, particularly for minors. This provision shows a complete disregard for the well-being of detainees, prioritizing bureaucratic expedience over human lives. Profiting from Immigration Adding insult to injury, HR2 does nothing to stop the friends and allies of both Republicans and Democrats from profiting off the immigration system. The bill is conspicuously silent on measures to prevent private companies and politically connected entities from exploiting detention centers and other immigration-related services for financial gain. This glaring omission ensures that the cycle of profiteering continues unabated, with the well-being of migrants sacrificed for the sake of crony capitalism. The Fundamental Failure of HR2 The fundamental failure of HR2 is that it solves none of the issues that exacerbate and cause the problems it claims to address. Instead of tackling the root causes of migration, such as economic instability and violence, the bill focuses on punitive measures that merely scratch the surface. By ignoring the complexities of immigration and opting for simplistic, draconian solutions, HR2 ensures that the cycle of desperation and illegal immigration will continue unabated. Conclusion: A Disgraceful Display of Legislative Malfeasance HR2 is not just flawed; it’s a disgraceful display of legislative malfeasance. It avoids addressing critical issues, creates legal traps, and blatantly disregards human rights. Rep. Byron Donalds and his fellow charlatans have crafted a bill designed to protect themselves, not the public. This isn’t about border security; it’s about maintaining power and avoiding responsibility. It’s high time we called out this deceit and demanded real, humane solutions to our immigration challenges instead of allowing these frauds to manipulate the system for their gain.

Resign.

I just don’t get why these (news) outlets put any stock into what @cthagod has to say.

I’m supposed to belive a guy that sold drugs to kids and committed bank fraud.

Then pass a border bill Uncle Ruckus "Even if the border security bill passed the Senate, it would have no chance in the House, where Johnson has vowed it will be dead on arrival."

#BidenBorderCrisis

I’m really tired of people like him and @billmaher hawking their books. They’ll still vote for Biden. These outlets are being used. How does he know they’re not MAGA?
