    "Tonight every single Senate Democrat voted against my amendment that would stop Biden Admin from using taxpayer dollars to charter flights for hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens from their countries directly to American towns to be resettled," Republican Tennessee Sen. Bill Hagerty tweeted early Saturday morning.

    "Indefensible," he added.


    These are people whose sworn duty is to serve the American Citizens....
    Spending your taxpayer dollars to fly in those who can't get to the southern border to walk in.

    As long as they fly them in to the deepest red states, make them citizens and turn those states blue, I don't have a problem.

    They love power at any means.. They are truly looking for a one party authoritarian government.

    Let me see if I understand the nonsense that is this amendment.

    He wanted to stop taxpayer funded flights that bring "illegals" into this country.


    Is that a thing? Are we flying "illegals" into this country?

    Sounds like a piece of flush legislation meant to pander to stupid people.

    Now if the amendment was to keep governors from shipping illegals out of their state to another state with public money, we America loving Democrats would be all for that !
    Yeah, 'cause righties never make anything up to pander to their sheep or take partisan political shots at anyone who doesn't believe their propaganda.

    Care to point out in this Oath of Office for the United States Senate where they have a "sworn duty to serve the American Citizens"?

    I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.

    How can they be illegal if the American government is actually bringing them into the country?

    Do you mean refugees? Asylum seekers?

    So are you saying tax payer dollars were never used by biden administration to fly illegals to different states? You called it "propaganda" so did you buy into the hype just like the other guy did? It sounds to me like YOU are the one that fell for propaganda. Here's your chance to prove me wrong.

    Ready.............GO!!!!!!!!

    Could it be because it isn’t happening?
    Just maybe?

    If democrats voted against flying big foot to the moon would y’all also be against that?

    Claims Biden administration is secretly flying migrants into the country are unfounded

    …Former President Donald trump elevated false information that had gone viral on social media, claiming the Biden administration secretly flew hundreds of thousands of migrants into the United States.

    But migrants are not being flown into the U.S. randomly. Under a Biden policy in effect since January 2023, up to 30,000 people from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela can enter the country monthly if they apply online with a financial sponsor and arrive at a specified airport, paying their own way. Biden exercised his "parole" authority, which, under a 1952 law, allows him to admit people "only on a case-by-case basis for urgent humanitarian reasons or significant public benefit."

    So they are not illegal meaning that this bill is nothing but another successful bill to outrage a base they know will not do any digging spurred on from an impeached criminal ex-potus with a history of lying.

    If congress wants to stop amnesty then they will need to pass a bill to that effect and stop playing partisan games. But they know this gets them more votes.

    Apparently this amendment was regarding flying people into this country. Not from state to state.

    Neither is giving America away- IF YOU OWN IT.
    Biden doesn't own America.

    So- you don't think the duty to uphold the constitution of the American people serves the American people?

    What country are you a citizen of? OR wanting to be? Your answers pretty much always sound like they come from North Korea or somewhere. Just asking..

    So WHAT?:bored:
    What does "fly illegals to different states" (domestically from state to state) have to do with the Amendment in the OP (which refers to flying them in from OTHER COUNTRIES)?

    So- you think that the American government makes anything legal by doing it. The problem with that concept is the people who think it's true.

    Show us the immigration policy being used to bring them here legally. Since you brought it up and are asserting that it's legal....

    I don't have to prove anything to you. You need to prove your statements.
    You are shoveling rightie propaganda and have no facts to support it. Here is an example of a FACT: your rightie governor DeSantis used public funds to ship immigrants out of his state and you applauded it.

    I think the issue here is you are wrong so you are simply changing the parameters to avoid that reality.

    You do if you are gonna come in here and say its "propaganda" when its actually happened.
    Not showing the proof is an admission its false so either way works for me (but lets face it, you did not deliver the proof to back up your false claim)
    GOOD STUFF!

    What actually happened ? Did you show proof that these flights happened ? Did you show proof of the status of the passengers ?
