Mike Johnson Chides Senate Republicans for Passing Funding Bill that Defunds ICE and CBP Specifically

[Seymour Flops]

In all my years working at airports guns are not something you see.
As undertrained ICE agents show
Dumb asses with guns nit a good tjing

Tell your party to fund the TSA then, so armed ICE agents are not needed to take their place.

Hell, even if they fund TSA today, so many have already quit in disgust that ICE may have to stay there for the foreseeable future.

Can you imagine the quality of recruits TSA will get to replace those who quit?

Your Party's TDS is literally killing Americans.

Yeah, but does a guy with a microphone get more leeway? How much does freedom of the press play into where the line is for reporting vs harassment enough to shove somebody? It shouldn't happen, but these days reporters are trying to create news to make their political opposition look bad. And they're doing it with the blessing of their management/ownership; no wonder the opinion that most people have of the media is pretty damn low.

Yes, that is a good point.

Reporters should not be shoving microphones into people's faces in an attempt to physically force them to answer questions.

Congress, you are just what we have come to expect from years of government service.

1 recall that in 2003 when DHS was created by the GOP it was warned that the consolidation of these government agencies was a bad idea
2 the “ Dems” put forth the requirements that ICE obey due process
3 the bill was passed by the senate to fully fund TSA.
4. ICE is paid thru 2028 by the BBB
So why didn’t Johnson pass the senate bill?

What part was hard for you?

The part that made no sense, which was almost all of it.

A LEO does not get to bait, period.

Thune is a weak majority leader and should be replaced by a stronger person.

I've been trying to reach his office all week... they are not taking calls.... so he is also a coward...
