You'll remember that President Joe Biden pretended he couldn't do anything about the border without legislation from Congress authorizing it. President Donald Trump proved him wrong, closing the border on Day 1. As they say, we didn't need a new law, we needed a new president. 

During Biden's final year in office, Democrats in the Senate pushed a "bipartisan" bill that would have addressed the border crisis … poorly. Never mind that the House GOP had already passed legislation that was moldering on Chuck Schumer's desk. Biden demanded this new legislation, which still would have let 1.8 million illegals into the country each year.

Of course, when the House rejected the bill, the Democrats all blamed Trump, who was still campaigning, for urging Congress not to pass this bipartisan compromise that would have "secured" the border. This allowed them to saddle Trump with opposing attempts to get control of the border.

The bill's Republican co-sponsor, Sen. James Lankford, went on CNN to argue that illegal aliens needed due process to make their case before being removed from the country.

That's the goal. They want to make it impossible to deport illegal aliens … even those who've gone on to commit even more serious crimes. They don't want anyone deported.

Lankford really needs to learn to read the room. Congress rejected his crappy bipartisan compromise, and Americans voted November 5 for mass deportations. Here's just one more RINO who needs to be primaried.
