    From John D Groenveld@21:1/5 to All on Sun Feb 18 13:37:02 2024
    Via Breitbart Immigration, Breitbart.COM/immigration, see Bradley Jaye
    on whether Vladimir Putin bribed Donald Trump to endorse Mitch
    McConnell and Jim Lankford for Senate.GOV: <URL:https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2024/02/05/mike-lee-senate-gop-needs-new-leadership-now-border-bill-disqualifying-betrayal/>
    | "If you had a lawyer, agent, or employee who (while negotiating on
    | your behalf) botched a deal as badly as Senate GOP leadership
    | botched this border / supplemental aid package, would you
    | immediately fire that person?" Lee asked rhetorically.
    |
    | "This is worse than bad negotiation," he said. "It's betrayal."
    |
    | During the months-long negotiations, Lankford and McConnell allies
    | pushed back forcefully on criticisms of leaked and rumored
    | provisions of the draft deal.
    |
    | Sen. Mike Rounds (R-SD) went as far as claiming Russian
    | disinformation was behind the "rumors."

    Will Trump re-hire Amy Swonger to liaison with McConnell, Lankford
    and Rounds and will the Cheap Labor Lobby permit them to sign America
    First legislation assuming Trump offers up some?
