Do they not understand those seeking asylum are not here illegally!!!!
Just enforce our laws we have now.
We don't need more laws they don't enforce.
They are enforcing the laws right now that’s why they’re not working. It needs to be changed.
@@quenellwilliams8313 It's almost like the people saying "just enforce what's on the books" didn't even watch the video.
Lankford seems like an honorable man
This clown robot
2:13 he is saying it is the republicans.
Its real easy.
Enforce the law . No bill is needed.
Enforce the law.
Which one exactly???
@@Dave05J 🤡
Republicans hate law and order, ask MTG
@@seanm3463 🤡
about time a republican with a spine
Go to the back of the line
When a republican starts speaking the truth now he is a trader lol. Wow
This guy sure knows how or lie
No senate bill!!!
Rino member of the Uniparty !!!!!
It was a BS bill
Like you actually read it or even have a clue as to what this bill does. Give me a break! Stop being a coward and following the bully cuz u think it makes you cool. Wake up and think for yourself. The facts are right in front of you. Lankford is one of the most conservative republicans in the senate. I applaud him for speaking out, regardless of Trump’s order to stall this bill so that he has something to run on as opposed to approving what will help our country. It’s all about him. He could care less about you or any of his other cult followers. Meanwhile, Biden passes bills that help both Dems and Republicans, as long as it’s in our nation’s best interest.
🤡💩 why cause then trump can't campaign on the issue, hilarious.
@@1NotN it was not a good bill....just facts
@@jakeofthenorth6283 yea because Trump said so right. You legit never read it stop the cap, it was supported by GOP. All the way up until Trump said to kill it. Solely so he could run on the issue. 🤡💩
It’s not a bill that actually does anything for the border. I’m ashamed of all the republicans who keep going along with these terrible bills.
Trump/Epstein 24
You are absolutely correct !
Remember...if that bill would have significantly reduced the southern border invasion the Democrats would NOT have voted for it....
Your bill is garbage.
Boo Lankford. You are done.
Sorry, sir your bill was a worthless piece of crap.
Tell that to the Border Agents that backed the bill when it was first brought out!! Trump didn't want Biden to get credit for it! Keep Support your 🤡 ex president!!
Like you actually read the bill that you call a worthless piece of crap. Give me a break; is there any Trump lies you won’t believe. How gullible and cowardly can you be?
@@DragonNinja4680Well said
Who created this border crisis? BIDEN - ONLY HIM!
Did you read the bill?
How was this Bi Partisian, there were no Democratic Co Sponsors?
IT'S BULLSHIT, BRING BACK PRESIDENT TRUMP.
Lol...the illegal caravans started under his Presidency....lol, what a joke 🤡
Yeah!! Bring back President BS Trump😮
Trump/Epstein 24
Lgb needs to resend the EO for opening the border door in 2021 when the remaining in Mexico policy was working just fine. That bill you're saying Republicans didn't want dang right 5000 a day every day would've still come in.
No, 5000 a day would be processed, many of whom would be sent back.
JUST ENFORCE EXISTING LAWS AS MANDATED BY OUR CONSTITUTION!!
Lankford has the appearance of an alien . . . . . . just saying.
He explained that bill. Untruthfully. Thats all i will say
MR. LANKFORD, WHY CANT U SAY, I AM FOR THE FUNDING FOR THE CLOSUREB OF OUR BORDER, INSTEAD?
No there is no more options
Step up! Get something done!
Article 2, section 3 of our Constitution states, the president of the United States shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed. Our Constitution does not give our president a choice in this matter. He must insure our laws are faithfully executed, which brings me to immigration laws. Biden's refusal to enforce our immigration laws as written, is an impeachable offense so dire, that it can be used to not only remove him from the presidency, but also charge him for felony dereliction of duty and make him liable for the hundreds of thousands of crimes being committed against the American people due to his adamant refusal to act in accordance to said article and section of our Constitution. Over 90% of House and Senate democrats are also guilty of this crime.
MY GOD!!! get rid of this rino already! he is god awful and needs to be voted out!!!
Neither one is trusted
American society 8s lost because we never had a complete moritorium on all immigration for 5-10 years
I'm tired of both Republicans and Democrats playing games on America's most critical issue. Thank you, James, for speaking up!
Truth, Jimmy. His own party bending the knee to an old fart who lost then 2020 election. 😞
No it was a disgrace to America's people. Then tons of $ to other countries.
Biden?
I lost respect for Lankford when he tried to force republicans to go for that rediclious bill!! Mike johnson don't pass senate bill, tell the senate to put up hr2!!
Put up hr2!!
Is Lankford receiving a kickback for his position?
Sure looks like it...
EHR to bill which was submitted by the Republicans is a much better water and immigration bill. Google it and then Google the bipartisan Bill and make up your own mind which would be a better bill
HR 2 immigration and Border bill
Ask China how well the opium war worked out! If it is a national security interest, it' falls on the American president to take on the responsibility to protect the nation and secure the border. Seems like there are bigger forces at play here to be this negligent about the security of this nation.
Langford, no to bull crap bill, sell out
Get it 💯 done!! Finally someone steps up
Biden / Harris 2024 💙💙💙💙💙💯💯🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷
💙💙💙💙💙
Trump 2024 America first. Democrats created this border crisis with joey the first day in office 3 years ago and have screwed all Americans over and want us to pay for 33 million unvetted illegal immigrants.
Harris / Walz 👍
Landlord sell out !!
gay.
That dude is established big money man. He does what his donors want not the people who he represents.
If congress really wanted to show the public what each party prefers in a bill, we could make a decision which party is best for America. Make it easy for American's to understand.. Put it in bullet point format, show voters. If neither side displays in bullet point formatting where they stand in order to differentiate themselves, neither one seems to want to solve the problem.
IT is a fact
He's like an alien with hair
Excuse me ! Idid not want to interrupt! You sir said it earlier its not time to play politics! I think you should lead! But if you love your country and want to make your mark ! Fix it you fix it right! THE DRUGS ARE COMING IN THROUGH THE BORDER! TOO TURN YOUR HEAD ON THE FACT THAT CORRUPTION IS A REALITY! YEAH! IT MIGHT LOOK BAD! BUT AT LEAST YOU SAVE LIVES! I'M TELLING THIS LIKE SO MANY OTHER THINGS! I WANTED THE BEST FOR MY COUNTRY! BUT I AM NOT INVOLVED! FACT THE BORDERS HAVE BEEN BOUGHT! MAYBE NOT MANAGEMENT BUT INDIVIDUALLY!! YOU WANT TO FIX IT I GAVE IT TO YOU AND YOU WON'T FAIL! DISMISS ME
THEN YOU WERE PLAYING POLITICS
Why kill the border bill they need more judges and help st the border
I'm surprised. He made sense. Very well stated. Let's see if we can get something accomplished with this so called do nothing and embarassing Congress.
The guy I work with stopped and kidnapped a box turtle that was in the road wanting to take it home after work. I can outside to smoke a cigarette and looked over at his truck and that turtle was leaving town. No he looked like a little Volkswagen skooting across the ground.
This man is a leader follow
Better now than never ever 🔑🇺🇸🏗️🇬🇧🔑😎
