  Nope. It's a Republican Wish List bill.

    It may be a Republican Wish List but it's not anywhere near the wish
  list of anyone who wants actual border security.
    Republicans are shit on border security because they love illegal
  immigration every bit as much as Democrats do, just for different
  reasons.
    So it's no surprise at all that a bill written by two parties that both
  want the flow of illegals to continue is a shit bill that does nothing
  for border security.
 

  You fuckers wrote it

    I had nothing to do with it.
 

  yourselves, and it's the strongest immigration bill and border security
  bill in 50 years.

    Which ain't saying much.

  Stop lying about it. We all can read it for ourselves.

    Yes, I actually did read it. And it says exactly what I said it does.
    (1) It increases funding for Border Patrol so that they can more
  efficiently process illegals into the country, not keep them out.
    (2) It allows the free flow of illegals to continue until illegal
  entries exceed 8000 in one week or 5000 in one day, at which point the
  president may close the border. Note: "may", not "must", which means Joe
  Biden can keep doing what he's been doing all along and just let them
  keep coming.
    (3) Despite previous language in the bill implying it to be the case,
  the bill doesn't *actually* close the border, even if this fraudulent
  and arbitrary 5000-illegal threshold is reached. Per one of the bill's
  co-authors, Senator Chris Murphy (D): "The bill contains a requirement
  that the president funnel asylum claims to the land ports of entry when
  more than 5000 people cross in a day." So the border never really
  closes, the illegals are just funneled through the ports instead of
  being allowed to swim across the river and walk into America everywhere.
 

  Fox Fucking News blasted Republicans.

    So what?
 

  Fox. Fucking. News. is calling you a liar, too.

    So what? Fox lies. You've gleefully pointed that out on many occasions.
  Now you want to use them as a reliable source when it helps you get a
  win on Usenet.
    Don't think I didn't notice how you suddenly stop calling them Faux News
  when you do a 180 and cite them to bolster your position.
 

  "I think these are a couple of issues that put Republicans in peril of
  looking like literally a do-nothing Congress," Brit Hume told the station

    I think Brit fundamentally underestimates how many people in this
  country *want* a do-nothing Congress; how many of us feel Congress is at
  its best when it's in recess and how readily we'd agree to pay them all
  their full salaries to never show up at all.
 

  The three main negotiators on the Senate bill-- Republican Sen. James
  Lankford of Oklahoma, Independent Sen. Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona and
  Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy of Connecticut-- have all pushed back on
  criticism of the bill. They emphasize that it would keep more people out
  instead of allowing more people to come in-- and that migrants would not be
  able to apply for asylum at all if illegal border crossings reach certain
  numbers.

    Which contradicts the actual text of the bill they supposedly wrote.
  (Which actually was written by their staffers and which they probably
  haven't even actually read cover to cover, despite being its "authors".)
 

  Lankford has repeatedly emphasized that the emergency authority "is not
  designed to let 5,000 people in, it is designed to close the border and
  turn 5,000 people around".

    Political double-talk. These people out-and-out lie to your face. Just
  like the DHS Secretary, the White House spokeshole, and the president
  himself have been blatantly lying for the last three years when they've
  repeatedly stated without qualification that "the border is secure".
    It's not secure. A 3-year-old can see it's not secure. But the
  Gaslighter-in-Chief thinks if they just say it enough times, we'll stop
  believing our lyin' eyes and take his dementia-addled word for it.
    Here's a question: If the border is secure-- as Biden and all his people
  have been insisting it is for three years-- why are they now saying it's
  not secure because Republicans won't pass "the bill"? If they have
  haven't been lying their asses off for three years, there should be no
  need for this bill, right?
    The bill clearly states that these 'emergency' provisions don't kick in
  until there have been 5000 crossings in a 24-hour period. That means
  5000 illegals have already gotten in before the provision is triggered.
    And neither Fox nor any of these politicians bother to address how this
  bill would actually *lessen* the already-minimal standards for allowing
  illegals into the country. Right now, people applying for asylum need to
  show "a significant possibility that they can establish a credible fear
  of persecution on the basis of race, national origin, political beliefs,
  etc." Not a high standard. It doesn't require them to provide any actual
  evidence of their claims. Just say the magic words and make a claim,
  which they've been coached to say and which they've rehearsed, and then
  get into the country. But this border bill would lower that standard
  even further, if that's possible, from a "significant" possibility of
  persecution to merely a "reasonable" possibility of persecution. And
  reasonable is just another way of saying 'plausible'. In other words,
  it's a bar that anyone from anywhere can clear. There's no way that
  anyone claiming asylum will ever get turned away if that's the standard.
    This provision is designed to hamstring the immigration judges who have
  been denying 95%+ of these fraudulent immigration claims and force them
  to grant almost every one of them.
 

  After meeting with Republicans in the Capitol Monday evening, Lankford told
  reporters that people understand it once he explains it, "but it's been
  said wrong so many times that people immediately just go back to, 'this
  lets 5,000 people in a day', which is just factually wrong

    No, those of who have actually read the text know you're lying, Jimmy.
 

No, dumbfuck.  Not at all.  Your buddy, Trump killed the bill that Biden
needs to secure the border.

 Biden already has what he needs to secure the border: he holds the office of
president of the United States.

Sure he does.  That's your excuse?  He's asking Congress for the authority.
Authority is in the bill YOU GUYS WROTE.  But they won't vote for THEIR OWN BILL because Trump told them not to.
If Trump had the power to close the border you claim Biden has, then why didn't HE do it?
Didn't he think it was important?
