If you listen to MTG's comments from the 8:33 to 10:46 mark in this video, she clearly explains how this legislation funds the "deep state" priorities, "it's state and foreign ops, it's the CIA, it's the FBI, it is full funding for the department of justice that is weaponized against MAGA, against Donald Trump, against pro-life activists, against parents that want to hold their school boards accountable. This was a full funding, that was leading to the effort that is leading to Ukraine, that is pushing the entire world closer to WW3".

The left and the main stream media attempts to demonize MTG for introducing a "motion to vacate" speaker Johnson as House Leader. Listen to what Michael Steele has to say about MTG at the beginning of the video.(seventh lieutenant governor of Maryland from 2003 to 2007 and as chair of the Republican National Committee from 2009 until 2011). So, who is the real traitor here, MTG or speaker Johnson

She has some interesting comments on expelling Rep. Mike Gallagher, who is resigning from congress.

Is there a chance Johnson new that some RINO’s would cross over and pass the bill?

Nothing but 22,000 new border agents and more than 40,000 spots in detention centers. At the you getting tired of making an ass of yourself by lying constantly?

You ever get tired of not understanding the actual context of the bill lil guy?

Kevyn, simply adding border agents isn't going to solve the problem if those agents are simply used to process ayslum claims for all the illegals entering this country. Democrats want illegals in this country because they are counted for census purposes and adds House seats. Adding spaces in detention centers is fine, but it would be better if Biden reversed his "executive orders" for "remain in Mexico", and stopped his abuse of "immigration parole" and flying them into our country. Most of the money seems to be used to buy vehicles and equipment. There’s plenty of money for enhanced border security in the $1.2 Trillion funding package. Just not the US border (see screen shot below. https://www.theburningplatform.com/2024/03/23/border-security-in-the-1-2-trillion-porkulus-spending-bill/

Here are some highlights of the package:
Over $9.5 billion for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Close to 5 thousand new police-type vehicles. 
For the Department of Homeland Security 7,500 police-type vehicles, money for marine vessels, aircraft, and unmanned aerial systems.
Over $850 million for the procurement of marine vessels, aircrafts and unmanned aerial systems for US Customs and Border Protection (CBP). In addition, over $55 million for CBP construction and improvements.
$650 million for FEMA to relieve overcrowding in short-term US Customs and Border Protection holding facilities. $2.5 million of that may go to the Bureau of Indian Affairs for maintenance and repair of roads on Native American reservations used by the U.S. Border Patrol. 
The bills needed two-thirds support to pass. The final vote was: 286-134.
Republicans are touting an increase in the number of ICE detention beds and border agents.
House Speaker Mike Johnson celebrated the package in a statement early Thursday: "it significantly cuts funding to NGOs that incentivize illegal immigration and increases detention capacity and the number of Border Patrol agents to match levels in the House-passed appropriations bill and the Secure the Border Act." It's unclear which NGO's Johnson was referring to.

Amen!

Anyone who listens to Marjorie Trailor Park Greene and takes her seriously isn't worth listening to. She's a punchline.

What's needed on the border is more immigration judges so that the cases can be settled and either sent home or allowed to stay quickly. A LOT more. Get them in and out.

Yea that’s the problem. And you think MTG is a punch line. You’re a punching bag.
