Democrats Try to Revive Build Back Better Amnesty, Green Card Giveaway; Texas Dept. of Public Safety Lt.: Border Situation Will ‘Get a Whole Lot Worse’ in 2022

Democrats Try to Revive Build Back Better Amnesty, Green Card Giveaway:

Democrats and their business allies are trying to revive the huge immigration giveaways in President Joe Biden’s semi-defunct Build Back Better (BBB) spending plan.

The bill has been blocked by Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV), who has repeatedly stated he opposes the $1.7 trillion spending plan because it will likely increase inflation.

But “Democratic lawmakers, lobbyists and experts at think tanks believe Manchin might be won over if the bill is revised to include fewer programs for a longer period of time,” the Hill.com reported December 23. The outlet continued:

“That is the way forward here,” said Ben Ritz, director of the Center for Funding America’s Future at the Progressive Policy Institute, who has advocated for a bill with fewer items.

“Most of the party is starting to come around to that,” Ritz added.

The Democrats’ left-wing group, the Congressional Progressive Caucus, also wants to overcome Manchin’s opposition. —>READ MORE HERE

Texas Dept. of Public Safety Lt.: Border Situation Will ‘Get a Whole Lot Worse’ in 2022

On Friday’s broadcast of “Fox News Live,” Texas Dept. of Public Safety Lt. Christopher Olivarez said he predicts that the situation on the border is “going to get a whole lot worse” in 2022.

Olivarez said the federal government has “canceled every viable resource to law enforcement, canceling the border wall, removing the Remain in Mexico policy…the three components that are needed for an effective strategy to combat this border crisis [are] manpower and technology and, of course, infrastructure. And again, all of these components have — they’re not being done by the federal government. They’ve failed to act.”

He added that the situation on the border isn’t improving, “and we anticipate going into 2022, it’s going to get a whole lot worse. Because we have not seen the numbers decline. As we continue to see illegal immigrants come across our southern border, we know that the drug trafficking organizations are continuing to pour illicit drugs across our borders, more specifically, fentanyl.” —>WATCH THE INTERVIEW HERE
