Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn: 'One of the most dangerous moments': Republican and Democratic senators race to resolve aid, border disputes

[DigitalDrifter]

Yes, because it's "dangerous" to demand our borders be as secured as Ukraine and Israel's.

WASHINGTON — Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., hit out at Republicans demanding aid for Ukraine and Israel be tied to border and immigration demands, saying the ongoing talks are “one of the most dangerous moments that I’ve ever faced in American politics.”

Senators are racing to reach a deal securing money for Ukraine and Israel while also making changes to immigration policy, a notoriously thorny issue. Murphy, the lead Democratic negotiator of a bipartisan group of senators working to forge a deal, lamented the slow-moving talks in an interview on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

Kick the US Chamber of Commerce out of the room and they might get somewhere.

if the Dems are so fucking hard on for Ukraine aid, let them compromise with border security money, and maybe actually letting Customs and the Border Police do their fucking jobs.

Why is an effort to curtail the insanity of open borders considered "dangerous" by do nothing democrat senators?

 

[Donald H]

The point is, the Republicans don't want aid to go to the Ukraine, but they have to pretend that they do.. It's just too obvious, if they wanted the aid to the Ukraine, it would have been done already.

Why are they more concerned about Ukraine than our own border?

Dude is seriously unhinged.

And DEmocrats don't want to secure the border or any money to go the Jews. Yer point?

And paid for how?

 

[martybegan]

And paid for how?

That's up to congress to figure out.

 

[Donald H]

Why are they more concerned about Ukraine than our own border?

Because they believe that Russia is intent of conquering all of Europe.
or
America loses it's clear edge over all other superpowers unless Russia is destroyed economically. Russia and China in an alliance is considered to be too big a task for America.

So that's why the R's have connected border security to the Ukraine war.

But they never do. I hope none of it passes.

at the cost of our own country?

 

[Donald H]

Clearly there are a lot of Republicans who don't buy into the manufactured threat of Russia/Putin wanting more than border security and the part of the Ukraine it's going to take to achieve that.

It could be that the US congress is up against a time restraint to get it done. Russia is now mounting a huge offensive and succeeding.

NOT OUR BUSINESS.

BUT the border is.

 

[Donald H]

That's the correct talking point. The Dems have to convince everybody that it's as big a deal as Murphy makes it out to be.

But if that's so then that destroys the other US propaganda talking point on it only being a war to save the Ukraine!

And besides, America has already made Russia out to be nothing but a small and powerless gas station.

 

[Concerned American]

The point is, the Republicans don't want aid to go to the Ukraine, but they have to pretend that they do.. It's just too obvious, if they wanted the aid to the Ukraine, it would have been done already.

Oh, but what about America's proxy war, duck? Just STFU.

 

[Donald H]

NOT OUR BUSINESS.

BUT the border is.

The Dems consider it America's business because they are pushing the line that Russia/Putin is intent on continuing across all of Europe.

And the Repubs don't buy the bullshit. They understand that America promoted a proxy war against Russia, going back to 2014 and earlier.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

Why are they more concerned about Ukraine than our own border?

Because they need more third-worlders to flood in in order to completely transform America. These people hate the west, they hate capitalism, and American culture. The more people flooding in with their palms out to American taxpayers, the more voters they will eventually have in order to turn this into the world's largest ever socialist country.
Face it, voting Dimocrat is voting to destroy America.

WW2, they were referred to as the Bund, aka 5th columnists.

How many chinese/russian/etc are walking across our poorly patrolled border while we're financing Ukraine?

Don't care?
