#Trump #Border #Congress
They know th3 border is not “open”. LIARS .
Tramp will b3 crushed and jailed regardless 😂
GET OUT OF MY YOUTUBE
Why must the deal include Ukraine. Need more laundered money? Crooks! These people are traitors.
Mitch McConnell is 82 yrs old. He is afraid to lose his job / his income ( $174,000 a yr for an senator ). He won’t step down soon ???
Where do you think he will have another job ??? He has been sick lately ???
Really? I’m no 2024 Trumper, but what deal? Why? Just enforce existing border and immigration etc laws. Again, just enforce the law with or without Trumps executive orders, which have been undun by president Biden. At least enforce laws we still have mr. president…and border illegal immigration problem 99% solved and deport the border jumpers! No new laws required! With this deal 5000 illegals are required to be help cross JUMPING trespassing our the border. Multiply that with with 365 days per year. That is 1.5 million illegal borderjumpers extra. Hence no deal!
Here is the solution to Ukraine, stop funding them because half the money being sent to them is being sent back to fill the pockets of our corrupt politicians! The solution to the border is put troops down there! Hum, I’ve got a high school education and I figured that out that easy! We have a bunch of corrupt politicians getting rich off us while they are doing their best to destroy our country and our freedoms!! Don’t listen to none of the fake news outlets, they are spreading propaganda!
The border is not wide open and we know this because Biden has deported more people than any president
The Democrat border deal information that has been released is awful, 5,000 migrants a day allowed in. Do the math-that is not good. Close the border.
McConnell is just the messenger – hate the messenger, fine but the worse part is the guy pulling the strings. Trump promised us he’d “drain the swamp” to stop all these political manouevers and here he is blocking progress to help his election. I can’t support someone that would cause me harm just so he can get elected. Congress does so little but now it’s even worse.
Help!!! WE ARE NOT SAFE, WE NEED THE NATIONAL GUARD AT THE CALIFORNIA BOARDER NOW!!!
Withhold lunch breaks until Turtle does his job. People are making and watching videos about civil war for some reason. I can imagine uniforms with rainbow colors being sewn in blue state basements and China having six and eight year olds making pink army boots.
Why don’t Republicans want to secure the border?
@@skankhunt3624 Are you being serious?
@@OrtusMallum2075 why would you ask that question?
@@skankhunt3624 Why would you answer a question with a question.
It was a simple yes or no.
Trolls gotta troll
Stop giving our money away to Ukraine.
Just where it belongs, don’t want billions to leave the country.
So, protect the US integrity has to be negotiated????
Sickening!!!!
Two sepperate issues
McConnell is trhe poster boy for swamp creature
This is incompetent and corrupt politics. Trump is OUT these people have been voted in by the people of there state. Do the JOB you were sent to do!
Giving more money to Ukraine in the hope that the Biden administration will enforce border security shouldn’t be considered. No more wasted dollars for Ukraine. Zelenskyy can pay for his own yacht
Slump needs something to politicize bcuz he was a failed administration! Biden/Harris ’24
How did he fail?
NBC is the number one source in state propaganda.
America first no more money for Ukraine!! The money laundering has to stop
Fund ukraine and Israel Republicans fault no to border wall funds
Why fund other countries that do nothing for us but siphon our funds.
I’m left wing and staunchly against any aid to Ukraine or Israel. I will directly vote against everyone advocating we do. It’s the main issue this election.
@@AmericanDissident1 wrong answer
The border was secure until sleepy joe and on your back harris took office!!!
This chick is bs
GET RID OF MITCH! He is a spineless, sorry excuse of a man. RINO!
Of course the GOP will vote against ANY bill or deal that helps the border if Biden might look good. Another example of deflecting doing anything because the GOP cult leader is afraid of Bidens wins on the economy, jobs, record fentynal seizures at the border……how else can this be spun?
Not very bright for your age….
Per usual, the Dems are holding Americans hostage unless we approve funding a foreign war..
Ditch Mitch!
Shut the border or shut down the government
No more !!!
Enough is enough.
No more money for Ukraine.
No more money for immigrants.
VOTE OUT all GQP!
Prosecute the criminals in Congress!
There is no GQP
So the world 🌍 and all countries now modi write 39.page.in.the.new.msulim.bibie.see.it.tur.everyone
Why democrats don’t want to protect our borders ?????
Some Republicans want to solve the issue, some Republicans want more, some want to use this issue to win elections for themselves and Trump (as the reporter have pointed out).
There’s money to spend on defending Ukraine’s borders, but not ours. There’s money to spend on illegals, but not our combat veterans, while our debt grows. And NBC spins this to make it look like Trump is obstructing progress by telling Republicans not to budge. What a bunch of partisan hacks.
it seems odd to me that Matt Gaetz isn’t also calling to vacate Mike Johnson, since Mike Johnson is basically doing the very same thing that McCarthy did after completely flip flopping on what he said he was going to do
Don’t forget, Turtle just bribed a Maga person to not run for a Senate position…..McConnell is part of the problem.
Before we give aid to Ukraine, Congress need to check Zelenski’s and his wife’s bank accounts at Swiss Bank, Bank Hapoalim, Bank Leumi and other Israeli banks. How many hundreds of millions of US taxpayers money have been stolen by this dictator. No money for Zelenski’s before the investigation.
We can talk about Ukraine after we seal the border
No we can’t. I’m left of the Democratic party and I have no issues working woth MAGA on immigration. But any deal including Ukraine funding is disqualifying and I will automatically vote against anyone who supports Ukraine aid here in PA.
Someone needs to tell the House of Representatives and the United States Senators that they work for the citizens that elected them,NOT Donald J.Trump. Sick of this shitshow.
@0:10 Who in their right mind would vote for someone who looks like that? Post your photo I want to see what an insane person looks like.
WHAT!? NO!
We, the American people, are shocked! 😶
Trump has been telling people, he is rich. He lives in ” gold house & mansion “. 4yrs in the WH, he made billions.
Go back and re-read the reports from Business Insider ( Dec-18, Dec-20, Dec-23 of year 2020 and Jan-28-2021 ).
Trump raised atleast $1.26 billion for re-election campaign fund ( $617 mil from that $1.26 bil was secretly paid family members ).
After 2020 election, Trump continued to raise fund and pay for his legal cases. Is this a rich-man or a con-man ???
Fake news selling propaganda for democrats everyone in America knows this that’s why their approval rating is the lowest in history
The bill congress is pushing doesn’t secure anything.
Abolish the federal income tax immediately… the federal government is disgusting and has destroyed the United States!
Trump should hush.everyone
Knows that he is interfering with government stuff that he needs to stay out of it
How is he interfering?
Cause he has no business trying to get the Republicans to do what he says and he’s a ex president.he is not in office.republicans should do the job they get paid to do.they don’t need to listen to trump.
I hope traitor Mitch McConnell is voted out. I hope the ppl of Kentucky remember Mitch McConnell chose Ukraine over your safety. I have never voted for traitor Mitch.
Let say, a person go to church and put $1 in donation basket ( Poor people don’t have money, they only do $1. Rich people do more ).
If millions people go to church everyweek, that $1 X millions people X weeks X months X yrs = Hug $$$.
Trump used the same method to collect donations for his campaign and pay legal cases. How much do you think Trump has got so far ???
Remember, 74 million people voted for Trump ??? He can make billions very easily.
Don’t forget the stories, that Trump team had their credit card on file, and Trump team charged their cc without permission.
Democrats don’t want border security, that’s clear.
Moscow Mitch continually lowering the bar… and then standing silently for several minutes, staring blankly into the vast nothingness of his own corrupted soul.
McConnell, older than dirt is holding this up for trump,,, he doesn’t have another election to worry about,, do what is good for America for once
America! The Words of Democrat candidate Dean Phillips ‘ My party is Delusional’ and had nothing but praise for M.A.G.A. supporters he met outside a Trump Rally, he also stated Biden hasn’t got a Chance at beating Trump. Wake Up America!

MAKE BILLS SEPARATE. THERE IS NO REASON TO PUT TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THINGS IN ONE BILL! AND STOP FUNDING UKRAINE!
Why on earth would you not want the US to fund Ukraine?
If Putin takes the Ukraine he will become more powerful than the US.
This man is a straight up democrat. He and his buddy Joe Biden need to be put in a home.
GOOD! Why is the border control deal connected to more wasteful spending on Ukraine?? Let Ukraine take care of their own war and let’s help Americans first. But I understand if dementia Joe has to make good for all the bribes he took from Ukraine
Mitch McConnell will always lean to the side of his buddy Joe Biden the Democrats
The USA is not the world’s sugar daddy. Security at home is a stand alone issue.
Address the border. The Ukraine needs to surrender.
Remember this folks, NBC committed treason on us all, lying over and over and over again to put Joe in office. We all see the results of that, worst we have ever seen. Hope these people understand that their fear of retribution is warranted, however they use the wrong word as a description for what is coming. The word is ACCOUNTABILITY, and the charge will be treason!! What Americans face now, is a DIRECT result of a press corp willing to lie to 350 million of us, to get the results THEY WANT, not what the people want!! Hope these people realize what is coming!!!!
ONLY FOOLS BELIEVE NBC NEWS
Democrats want the votes no matter how they get them. If walls and fences are a problem, take down the fence around the white house. Stop blaming a former president for current dummies problems. What a joke.
Democrats want Ukraine and the District of Columbia as states???
Trump is against the deal. IT is however the DEMOCRATS that are the idiots here. WHY. It looks like there at least 10 or more Republican Senators who will vote for this. It needs more to give them all the cover it needs and to have a big enough majority to force the house to act. Some Republicans have said 5,000 processed per day is too many. They using this as an excuse but they are 100% correct in the eyes of 60% of the American people. SOLUTION DEMOCRATS should immediately offer 2,000 per day at the border and 500 per day in the app from high risk COMMUNIST countries (Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua) That way there will be no excuse and there will be 70 votes. Most GOP Senators don’t like Trump. 70 votes in the Senate will force the house and 3 GOP congressmen will switch. If DEMOCRATS think 365 x 2,000 and 365 X500 asylum seekers is not enough then they are NUTS
Remember Mitch McConnell criticized Trump on Jan-6-2021 ???
But, he voted ” NO ” ( not convicted Trump ) ??? In other words, he voted to acquitted Trump. What a man is this ??? Coward ???
Get McConnell out!!!
Biden’s Proposed Border Plan 2300 new border patrol agents. Another 1000 in addition to that to deal with fentanyl. Close to a billion dollars just in new technology. Trump and his supporters don’t want to solve it. They turned Biden’s plan down want to use the situation for their political purposes.
The Democrat run Congress and White House created this crisis back in 2021, and the left wing media tried to ignore and hide it from us. Now that blue Democrat cities are being overwhelmed with illegal immigrants the leftist media can no longer ignore or hide it. And to show you just how despicable these left wing propagandists are, they now try to blame it all on Republicans who have only held the House for a short time.
Right, the McConnell whose sworn to make President Biden a one term President. Hes fake in my opinion. Hes not on the side of the people.
Glitch Mcconnell wants to put Ukraine above our own border.
Biden is president. He has authority over the border. This all could be solved tomorrow by enforcing current immigration law and the problem would go away.
Literally no reason to help Ukraine. Everyone has just been propogandized just like Iraq.
Ukraine is over..tell Joe if he wants them to get more money. Have him and Hunter. Give back what they took.
Putin isn’t the real threat Obiden is
NO DEAL👌🏽HOLD THE LINE👊🏽
Secure our boarder, Ukraine is Europe’s problem
Why doesn’t NBC show any coverage on Texas standoff with the feds? Is it because it would make Biden look bad?
Democrats are using the border crisis to hold America hostage so we send money to fund overseas wars.
And your party just brought people in to committee to tell rheir stories on how badly we need the border to be fixed. Your party just brought Mayorkas up on impeachment and your party has been telling everyone these border problems are because of Biden and the Democrats. You are a bunch of liars. To put those people through what you did and now you are going to stop? Now it is not a big deal? This Maga Republicans party is worthless and are continuing to show you are worthless. You are supposed to be doing the people’s work not Trump’s BS of attacking this great country and the American people. Shameful, disgusting and dangerous are the words you should be using to describe the Maga Republicans. Looks like Chip Roy is not going to have anything to show his constituents other than your party is full of liars, embarrassing, despicable people that do not deserve your vote to keep them in office. Vote them out and put people in that really want to do the work of the people not a single man that is running them into the ground.
Magats have made common cause with those who wave the confederate flag, carry a swastika and brandish a noose. Do you think they want to grab the levers of power by democratic means?

NEVER FORGET!
Shameless GOP MAGA
McConnell would be better as a Walmart greeter
No more Trillion $ to Ukraine, Americans don’t need to make deals close our borders.
Beautiful politics 😅😅😅
Why does President Biden NOT sign an executive order like former President Trump did to address the border crisis? And secure that border.
Because he told you all that he wanted an unending flow of illegals entering the country. You weren’t paying attention
just pathetic that democrats would link America’s border to Ukraines Democrats care more fir other countries borders than 🇺🇸
You don’t know what’s in the bill so why guess
Ukraine and the Southern Border have no relation to each other whatsoever. If the intent was to pass these bills, they would be voted on separately, and both parties will gladly vote for more war funding and against any meaningful end to mass immigration. The real reason why these two issues are lumped together, is because the uniparty has an intention of passing NEITHER.
It’s clear to anyone with a braincell that project Ukraine is an unwinnable war, which has succeeded in serving its intended purpose of distracting western sports fans from the vaccine fallout. Any chance of changing the tide of the war will require all NATO economic zones to enter into a wartime production economy, which is NEVER going to happen. This is how Washington intends to exit from the ukraine debacle. instead of admitting defeat, the narrative will be “le brave ukraine was about to win, if it wasn’t for those ebil republicans who hate muh democracy and work for putler”
Ukraine is not important
Our southern border should not be about politics. It is about the safety of our country which this administration doesn’t care about. People need to wake up and realize we are in trouble. Good on the 25 states that support Texas with this border stand off but also it is shameful that all Governors are not backing Texas.
Cunning democrats, why did you include 2 completely different issues in one case, immediately consider them separately. Enough more help for Ukraine, they have received enough.
VOTE BLUE for our border safety! The fascists stand against ANY real progress!!!!
No more money to Ukraine
These Republicans such as McConnell are so shady.
Lord Jesus Christ give peace soon..Amen……
talking to each other looking for peaceful solutions..Lord Jesus Christ the true Lord..who died on the cross to atone for sins and rose again on the 3rd day..only Lord Jesus Christ the way to eternal life (father house) or heaven,,,,,,,…..He really hate nuclear weapons,,because nuclear weapons is big sins..big sins is the eternal fire of hellfire..because nuclear weapons is very terrible weapons..nuclear weapons are big sins..big sins is the eternal fire of hellfire..nuclear power plant is big sin..ballistic missiles and hypersonic missiles is big sins..nuclear power plant is big sins…nuclear weapons is big sins..big sins is the eternal fire of hellfire..because nuclear weapons is very terrible weapons
Ukraine is running out of artillery ammunition and air defense capabilities! The USA promised to help Ukraine in case of attack! Republicans, step up and honor the deal!
أما انت السيناتور الجمهوري،من المفروض انت تحب بلادك اكثر من هذا وتقول لرئيسك السيد بايدن أن يغض الطرف على ما فعلوا ،و لا تصب الزيت على النار،رئيسك بايدن ذكي عليكم جميعا لن يضرب ايران الرئيس يعلم ما يقوله ويفعله لعلمك انه رئيسك ل 🪬سنوات القادمة وستراه جميعكم أنه الأقوى والأذكى منكم .هو لن يضرب مثلما فعلتم بالعراق من قبل الحزب الجمهوريين .الحزب الديمقراطي الجميل لم يضع يده في الغزو أي بلد مثلما فعلتم انتم الجمهوريين .الرئيس السابق بيل كلينتون لم يغزوا بلد كذلك الرئيس أوباما لم يغزو اي بلد ،وكذلك رئيسنا الحالي السيد بايدن لن يسمع كلامك ويضرب ايران .
Republicans want a border deal but get ukraine and israel out of the package
