The RINO Stampede

Who knows what’s going to happen in the Georgia Senate runoff election today.  But suffice it to say that Republican leaders raised expectations about the 2022 midterm elections that did not hold up, and the party’s conservative base is now seriously demoralized.

So, with that in mind, what are these “leaders” doing now that they’re back in the Swamp?  Well, it looks like there’s a RINO stampede. 

The first thing they did was punch their most loyal base in the mouth by caving to leftist demands to redefine marriage.  Some of them even went so far as to go on the Senate floor to insist they were betraying their best voters in the name of tolerance. 

As I noted in yesterday’s report, the left isn’t interested in tolerance.  It is demanding that we kneel to their idols and before their altars!

But wait. . . There’s more!

News broke yesterday that Sen. Thom Tillis from North Carolina is working on a deal with Arizona Democrat Kyrsten Sinema to give amnesty to millions of illegal aliens.  That is not what the American people want right now.

Our position has always been very simple:  No negotiations on immigration reform until the border is secure.  Period.  Full stop!

Build the wall!  Do whatever it takes to stop illegal immigration first.  Then and only then do you even begin to talk about what happens next.

We’ve been through this before.  Ronald Reagan accepted an amnesty deal from Democrats on the promise of future border security.  The amnesty went through but the border security never materialized. 

In 2006, after tremendous grassroots outrage, Congress passed the Secure Fence Act.  It clearly failed to solve the problem.

Once again, Tillis and Sinema are supposedly trying to combine border security with amnesty.  Well, we all know how that ends.  Amnesties are forever.  But border security is only as good as the president who is in office, as Joe Biden has proved. 

We were well on our way to having a secure border before Biden took office.  Now we’re being overwhelmed by record illegal immigration and record drug overdoses. 

By the way, Joe Biden still refuses to visit the southern border, “Because there are more important things going on.”

Let me be as clear as I possibly can:  If Republicans continue their impulse to run away from conservative values while pushing the left’s agenda, they will be committing political suicide and America will be an orphan, abandoned to the mercies of the neo-Marxist left.
