What a bunch of BS 🤬 close the border.

[@user-jd6iu1nb2t]

Border isn't open. Trump lies responsible over 1 million dead American Covid.

[@bradynutzman4488]

If the border can be opened up with the stroke of a pen on day one in office, it can be closed the same way.

[@Qthekat1984]

[@RedFezLad]

Except it isnt open. If it was BP wouldnt be arresting people at the border and they are. Explain that.

[@Qthekat1984]

@@RedFezLad It's been wide open since joey was installed.

[@RedFezLad]

@@Qthekat1984 then why are people being arrested while crossing the border 🤔

Nah! sorry Murph but we have a much much better bill, it's called HR-2 ever hear of it Chris?? and it's so much better than this pile of poo!!! Hold the line House and fire back with HR-2!

[@jimbarrrett6641]

I spoke with Murphys office and asked how many illegals Murphy would be taking in personally. His office told me " that's not going to happen. I laugh at these idiots

[@RedFezLad]

Because border patrol is still active and arresting illegal border crossers. I bet they laughed at you too buddy

[@robwaugh9964]

Once again, the uni-party strikes again. Please stay strong, good people. Prayers for strength and wisdom for all of us!

[@Jezeppi1]

Oh and Liars

[@saveamericanfreedom2400]

THE LEGISLATION WAS NOT NEEDED JOE COULD DO IT BY EXECUTIVE ORDER BUT WE DISAGREE WITH JOE'S IDEAS. CLOSE OUR BORDERS COMPLETELY THAT'S WHAT WE DEMAND.

[@ilovetomorrow]

It doesn't matter. The harm has already happened.

[@nuggdog5838]

They want to say this is bipartisan bill when it’s two Republicans with 20 Democrats that is not a bipartisan bill that’s just what they wanna call it

[@macawlovers1964]

Its the new buzzword that everyone is throwing around lately. You never heard it being used so frequently before trump got into office the first time. #trump2024

[@thumbsup6630]

Sounds like slander to me is there evidence supporting these accusations? Or is this all just in this man's head ,a hypothesis if you will

[@user-vh9hk4nu4d]

Senate democrats if you want a border bill, PASS HR2!! THATS A GOOD BILL , THE SENATE BILL IS CRAP!! PASS HR2!!

[@user-vh9hk4nu4d]

Go back to presidents policies, PASS HR2!!

[@fredhellsire115]

And you automatically know this guy is a bs artist when he has his puppet master chucky standing behind him...

[@Normal6755]

The bipartisan bill would have allowed unaccountable new immigration officers to let millions of illegals in. It was a garbage bill.

[@GreezyKeith]

Right. And the earth is flat. 🧐

[@jeffashcraft2388]

​@@GreezyKeith and your misunderstanding the bill

[@GreezyKeith]

@@jeffashcraft2388 And you don't understand Trump.

[@Qthekat1984]

​@GreezyKeith Your TDS is real. Biden signed 94 executive orders in 100 days to destroy Trumps policies. Day one was to open the border. And then eliminate oil production. You don't understand anything.

[@RedFezLad]

"Unaccountable" "millions" so you fell for the scare tactics too huh buddy?

[@user-ms2mv7om1u]

Trump2024! This border problem should have never happen to begin with!!!!!!

[@saveamericanfreedom2400]

CHICAGO IT'S TIME YOU TAKE BACK YOUR CITY.

[@m.schetr7398]

The bill was not what is needed to secure the Border. Biden even said it would allow more Judge's to process more illegals into country. Because they deserve to be here. It's what he said during a speech. That's not fixing the Border is it. So go back to the drawing board and come up with something different. Because that bill didn't do it.

[@Putzenaround]

BS

[@gailcarey3597]

What was the rider on the Bill???? Something isn’t being revealed.

[@macawlovers1964]

Exactly! Must be, and If there isn’t a rider on it, then they will just write into the bill under many subsections down so its not easily seen that they will introduce this bs.

You are crazy!

[@daveyrobins]

Good move. Congress has worked together recently. Keep it going. Secure the border. If Trump stops the bill again, Biden should enact it through executive action, with the promise to pass it if voters give US a democratic congress.
