NextImg:Border Bill Gives US District Court in DC 'Sole and Original Jurisdiction' Over Challenges to Law

There are so many reasons to vote against the Senate's bipartisan border control (and Ukraine-funding) bill. Republican Rep. Sen. James Lankford is responsible for half of this mess along with Sen. Chuck Schumer, and he's been online for a good part of the day trying to convince us that the bill doesn't allow 5,000 illegal immigrants to cross every day; it closes the border and turns 5,000 around, he claims. No, it does not close the border. 

We've already run a piece on a damning thread complete with screenshots from the legislation. Rep. Dan Bishop of North Carolina has put together his own thread explaining why he's giving the bill a hard pass, and one of those reasons is that any challenges to the law would be heard by the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia — in other words, D.C. and not the border states would be decided what's allowed and what's not.

This alone should be a non-starter. Any Republican who agrees to this is an idiot or a traitor.
