    Via Breitbart Immigration, Breitbart.COM/immigration, see Sean Moran
    on whether Kevin McCarthy and Mitch McConnell will open the Cheap
    Labor Lobby's scab worker import pipelines to salvage Joe Biden and
    Kamala Harris from stagflation: <URL:https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/06/21/john-cornyn-pledges-to-sell-out-america-on-amnesty-after-caving-on-gun-control/>
    | Andrew Surabian, a former Donald Trump administration official, said
    | in reaction to Cornyn's pledge for amesty, "From selling out on gun
    | control to selling out on amnesty in light speed."
    |
    | Sens. Thom Tillis (R-NC) and Cornyn have continued to push for
    | amnesty with the help of Democrat allies, including Sens. Padilla
    | and Dick Durbin (D-IL), the Senate Democrat whip.
    |
    | "The only way that we're going to get real progress is to have a
    | four-pillar discussion -- so immigration reform, DACA, border
    | security and then I think asylum reform is pretty important,
    | particularly with that's going on with Title 42," Tillis said in
    | April.
    |
    | "We've got a starting list. There could be some more. But it's a
    | starting point. I've talked to four or five Republican senators
    | today. There's a genuine interest in doing something," Durbin said.
    |
    | Cornyn was recently booed at the Texas annual Republican Party
    | convention last Friday over his work with Democrats to pass gun
    | control.

    Does Donald Trump regret handing his legislative legacy to the likes
    of Paul Ryan and McConnell?

    "I agree a President should be able to appoint way more officials
    who are committed to the agenda he was elected to pursue--ie
    political appointees. But Miles Taylor's a bad example. He *was* a
    political appointee. He stands for Trump's (incompetent) tendency to
    hire enemies." - Mickey Kaus <URL:https://twitter.com/kausmickey/status/1504251040337694728>
