    The Connecticut Mirror's Lisa Hagen for the Hartford Courant on
    whether Casey DeSantis laments that her path to WhiteHouse.GOV was
    dashed by Ron's failure to convince David McIntosh's Club for Growth
    to buy advertisements on Lachlan Murdoch's FoxNews.COM asking Donald
    Trump how many Afghans he invited to live with him at Mar-a-Lago: <URL:https://www.courant.com/2024/02/05/murphy-pushes-bipartisan-border-bill-as-ct-activists-raise-concerns/>
    | Even if it passes in the Senate, House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La.,
    | has called the bill "dead on arrival." And hours after the bill text
    | became public, House Republican leadership vowed to block it from
    | getting a vote in the House.
    |
    | Murphy, Lankford and Sinema have also sought to push back on
    | criticism of the legislation, particularly on Republican opponents'
    | claims that the bill would allow 5,000 migrants into the country a
    | day.
    |
    | "Even if it doesn't become law, I think it's important we now have
    | Republicans on the record supporting immigrants having lawyers and
    | representation going into proceedings," Murphy said, adding that
    | their support for new pathways to citizenship for Afghans and
    | children of H-1B visa holders "all bodes well for the future."

    Will Trump nominate NeverBackDown.ORG's Ken Cuccinelli to succeed
    Ur M Jaddou at USCIS.GOV and will Mitch McConnell consent?
