Breitbart: Bloomberg’s Laura Litvan reports on the pushback coming from Republican leaders in the House and Senate against President-elect Donald Trump’s plans to build a border wall and enforced immigration laws.
In addition to the legislative action from Senators Jeff Flake (R-AZ), Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) to prevent the deportations of illegal aliens, Litvan cites the actions of Senator John McCain (R-AZ), who highlighted his disagreements with Trump’s policies during a recent trip to Mexico. Litvan also notes the criticism of, or reluctance towards, Trump’s policy agenda among various GOP lawmakers on Capitol Hill.
Term limits would solve this problem.
Summary executions would solve this problem even faster.
Deja vu all over again. Phuckit!
An informed electorate would have precluded this problem.
There would be no problem if Americans understood that America cannot exist if flooded with rat-people – it will become a rat-warren.
Thanks to our “educational” system, too many are too stupid to get the gist of nationhood, civilization, and comity.
izlamo delenda est …
It’s so funny, McLame and Gayham failed their presidential bids. Flat out FAILED! Yet these elitist RINOs still think they’re better than DJT.
Talk about being a liberal. Wake up you two goofs, YOU FAILED, YOU SUCK and NOBODY wants to hear what you’ve got to say! You’re both washed up career politicians that are hanging onto whatever thread is being made available to you!
Term limits, unfortunately, aren’t a solution. As nature abhors a vacuum, so too does power…if you limit the accumulation of power by an elected office, it will be absorbed by the non visible and unaccountable staff.
We need to devise a method to make voting more responsible. My thought is to make the act of voting an intelligence test: what if all ballots took the form of a “connect the names” test? I envision that all the names of all the candidates in a given election would be listed in alphabetical order in a single list, with unique but randomly assigned letters beside them. You would cast your vote by entering the corresponding letter of your choice to the office you’re voting on. If this were done by a computer, the random letters could be scrambled differently on each ballot. Now let’s see how you pay derelicts to vote with “walking around money…”
Hey asshats, why do you keep putting these fucktards back in Washington? Ben Nelson essentially was the deciding vote on Obamacare and Nebraska threw his ass to the curb.
Why in the ever loving hell do you keep forcing these people on the rest of the nation? Wake the fuck up!
I agree with term limits-nobody should be in power like they have forever.I’ll give them 2 terms and then out you go.
Jon. Many of us have been trying for many years to get Grahamnesty out of office. There has yet to be enough people to see the truth of what he/she really is….a devote RINO.
” Bloomberg’s Laura Litvan reports ”
My God haven’t we learned anything when it comes to the “Fake News”. This is nothing more than an attempt to stir the pot against Trump claiming once again that Trump will fail.
McCain was just reelected to his 7th term. Maybe nature does abhor a vacuum and his staff would just be reshuffled. I’ll still take my chances with term limits. There just is no way in the world he should be a senator for 42 years-that’s ridiculous.
And I think 1 term is plenty for a senator-6 years either house and that’s it. No golden pension. Same health care plans as us pee-ons.
And 1 term, say 10 years, for SCJ. That’s another rotting institution that’s needs more turnover.
Trump should quote President Newport.
“I won.”
Find out who they are shills for (check their donators list) and boycott their businesses.
This WILL end the GOP. And deservedly so.
aleon is right. MSM is bullshit. Bloomberg is MSM to the max.
The progressive RINOs are coming out of the cracks in the woodwork. McConnell and Ryan are not leaders of the GOP or the Nation, they are lap dogs of the progressive/socialists and their special interest groups. Trump is the only duly elected official of the Nation’s citizens.
I doubt calls and letters to the progressive RINOs will change their outlook, they will continue the façade of representing the citizens and the media will make them heroes.
The wall better get built. Any Republican that fights against it
is a Traitor.
Don’t ask Congress anything. Start with 100% enforcement of existing law, including immediate application of funds already allocated.
The very worst kind of democrats are the ones who say they are republicans.
Send squads to Arizona, W Virginia, South Carolina, and NY to enlighten these traitors. Aggressive RINOS get new assist in breathing.
If they are successful in derailing the border wall, the first thing they will say in 2020 is “Trump lied!”.
God will take care of this. Continue to pray His will be done – as hard and as often as we prayed before the election.
2017 will take John McStain.
You heard it here first!

That’s what’s really wrong with America – everybody sitting around, waiting for someone else to fix things for them.

That thread is golden.

If crashing the plane into the ground leads to problematic outcomes, we could make the ground softer.

Because they know what he is, and that’s why they vote for him, is unthinkable?

The Pharaohs had their servants buried with them, when they left office.
Trump has talked a lot about (and enforced) the lobbyist ban in his administration — having those who join his team sign an agreement to not engage in lobbying for five years post-service to his administration. It could catch on in the Congress. Ever the optimist. Take the $$ out of public service and see who is a real patriot and who is just cashing in on the perks. Ultimately it’s up to us.
No need for a wall.
Just cut funding to illegals: housing, schooling, medical, food stamps etc. and they will leave.
Next, boot the muckin’ fuzzies.
There should be a litmus test for politicians running for office to ensure their true political beliefs match their party choice. it’s sad when you can have the majority of a political party made up in part of a minority of RHINO lying political trouble makers.
That Lindsey Gayrham is such a pansy, however I was NOT expecting THAT header picture. DEAR GOD.
10 years maximum for US Congress AND Supreme Court. The current system inhibits the input from the public and allows incompetents to stay in place. I’ll take my chances with new people and replacements for mccain graham mccaskill. this also will stop schittweasels like kamala harris who are planning to burrow into the system and stay in place for 30 years.
