  ...?

  What are "illegals"? I'm fairly certain 'illegal' is an adjective but you and the headline appear appear to be incorrectly using it as a countable noun.

      Ooooo, OP is being a bigot? That's unfortunate. Here I was giving benefit of the doubt.

  Did Buren not make a bill with the strong AF border reform that got shot down by mike cos it was packaged with Ukraine aid and he didn’t want that to be voted on.

    I would like to see legislation that makes it illegal to package unrelated legislation. So much fuckery happens because of it. But the legislation to block packaged legislation would probably be packaged with other undesirable legislation.

    Yeah, that’s how a lot of bills get killed. They get packaged with other stuff in the hopes that something that wouldn’t normal get passed, gets passed anyway.
