The same game is being played on us all. Will Republicans stop it all, or go along as usual?
‘Dem’s new deal would trigger border security only after 5,000 migrants come across a day. Remember, DHS Sec Johnson said 1,000 a day “overwhelmed” the system. If Repubs accept this sellout disguised as a “compromise,” they’re complicit in the open border,’ said David Asman
In a turn of events over the weekend, hopes for a smooth passage of a stopgap funding deal were dampened by Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), who cautioned that the Senate border compromise faces significant challenges in the House. Speaking to Bloomberg Television, Jordan expressed skepticism, stating that based on the leaked information, he and Speaker Mike Johnson are unlikely to support the proposed plan.
Trump still had the border under control. And chaos in the streets brought on by BLM and Antifa is on the Democrat Party not Republicans. It’s still going on today under a different name “Free Palestine”. – Niki Joy
The weekend developments had initially suggested a consensus on a stopgap solution. However, Representative Jordan’s reservations indicate potential hurdles in the House. He emphasized the need to carefully examine the plan before endorsing it, asserting that Speaker Johnson shares similar sentiments of hesitation.
On Saturday, Speaker Johnson hinted at his reluctance to support the proposed solution, setting the stage for potential disagreements within the Republican caucus.
Contrary to initial reports of proximity to a resolution, lawmakers seem to be further from an agreement than previously indicated. Despite this, groundwork is being laid for a temporary funding deal that could maintain government operations until March.
JUST ANOTHER RINO TO REPLACE MCCARTHY! THE PEOPLE WANTED JIM JORDAN! THE BORDER WALL WOULD BE CLOSED RIGHT NOW IF JIM WOULD HAVE BEEN NOMINATED!
We Cant Afford A Democrat Leaning Speaker , Especially When He Lies How We Must Secure The Border then does 0! https://t.co/jUEP4GVw7d— Maggie Ryane (@Pheanixs) January 13, 2024
Jordan disclosed that House Republicans plan to address concerns over border issues and deliberate on a spending strategy during a conference call tonight.
Simultaneously, Jordan and his team are actively pursuing the reissuance of a subpoena for Hunter Biden, aiming to secure his private testimony as part of an ongoing investigation into the Biden family’s business dealings.
Amidst the uncertainties surrounding the border compromise, there is a glimmer of relief regarding the debt ceiling. Lawmakers from the House and Senate managed to reach a bipartisan spending agreement, averting a potential disaster. The deal extends two major deadlines and ensures the government’s continued operation for an additional six weeks.
Rep. Jim Jordan told me that the House GOP should use "every opportunity" on must-pass bills to include new border restrictions — including on bill to fund government, a move Democrats warn would cause shutdown.

Reportedly, the agreement, as detailed by NBC News, allocates funds to keep the government running until March, providing legislators with an extended timeframe to formulate more comprehensive spending bills for specific agencies. The overall spending level for fiscal year 2024 has been set at $1.59 trillion, as agreed upon last weekend.
The new arrangement shifts impending government funding deadlines for various departments from January 19 and February 2 to March 1 and March 8, respectively.
The proposed short-term bill, referred to as a continuing resolution (CR), must secure approval from both the House and Senate before Friday at 11:59 p.m. to prevent a partial government shutdown.

In preparation for crucial discussions, Speaker Mike Johnson is scheduled to conduct a call with fellow House Republicans at 8 p.m. on Sunday to delve into spending negotiations. Notably, certain hard-right Republicans have voiced objections to the spending deal negotiated with Senate Democrats, urging Johnson to reconsider. Despite the dissent, Johnson affirmed on Friday that the agreement remains intact.
Top Democrats, Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries, hailed the bipartisan appropriations agreement, asserting that it paves the way for Congress to address critical funding priorities, averting a government shutdown in the coming weeks. Republicans so far are putting up a token resistance but know full well that the American people are watching more closely than we have ever watched, as we are all tired of DC’s games that always lead the nation down the wrong path. With a spiraling deficit and bankruptcy months or a year away, if Republicans go along with the Democrats yet again, they will be complicit in helping to advance the Democrat agenda. The total bankruptcy of the U.S. so they can try their ‘Great Reset’ or Global Marxism. As long as Americans are armed, they will fail.

Let’s face it, speaker. You guys don’t want a deal. You’ve turned down $14 billion from Biden. You’ve turned down a bipartisan agreement. What you is to have a grievance you can campaign on. And that is not what we call leadership. It is a failure to lead. – j2 Dumfounded
- RINO says what? This is your inaction! You caused this you ginormous spineless do nothing RINO! Just think if you spent as much time focusing on the border crisis as you did stumping against Jim Jordan for House Speaker or to keep Adam Schiff from being censured.. – Matt Couch
