republicans are expected to torpedo a bipartisan immigration and foreign aid bill. well, democrats aren t entirely on board either with that bill. fail to go pass immigration reform is especially embarrassing for republicans who have been screaming for decades that the border is in crisis, and needs to be fixed through legislation immediately. but now that a once in a multi-decade opportunity to do something about it is in front of them, they re about to decide that chaos at the border is politically better for them than an attempt to fix it. in the gob smack words of conservative republican senator james lankford who cowrote the bill, quote, are we as republicans going to have press conferences and complain the border is bad and intentionally leave it open after the worst month in american history in december. well, senator, it seems the answer is yes. so what exactly is happening in the republican party? who is in charge? and is this these failures, what they want? joining
