Tilli$$: ‘Immoral’ to kill border deal to “help” Trump
Again, can somebody explain to me HOW having this guy in DC is better than having a Democrat? Anyone ? (*Bueller?*)
This brings up another question for me. Does using a PAC, with significant funding from stolen funds, to take out a fellow Republican member of Congress from North Carolina ALSO count as “immoral”? (*Or even “illegal”, perhaps?*)
*Just asking for, you know, a friend.*
Here’s the latest:
Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.) argued it is “immoral” for Republicans to reject a border deal to help former President Trump.
“I didn’t come here to have the president as a boss or a candidate as a boss. I came here to pass good, solid policy,” Tillis said Thursday, first reported by NBC News. “It is immoral for me to think you looked the other way because you think this is the linchpin for President Trump to win.”
Members on both sides of the aisle are upset with Trump’s attempt to kill the border deal to deny President Biden a legislative win. His recent remarks calling for GOP members to oppose a border deal that isn’t H.R. 2 have complicated things for the Senate.
With two solid wins for Trump in Iowa and New Hampshire and a path toward becoming the Republican presidential nominee, Trump’s allies in the Senate are attempting to kill the border package. That could endanger future aid for Ukraine in its war against Russia, which has been tied to such a deal.[…]
Here is a good summary of HR 2 (aka “what Trump likes”).
Something else to keep in mind as Election Day 2024 approaches: Thom Tillis = John Bradford, Jeff Tarte, Chuck Edwards, Tim Moore, and Bill Graham.
**** Update: It appears Thom and his friends across the aisle in the Senate have come up with a, um, “deal” on the southern border crisis:
A bipartisan group of senators has cut a deal that would effectively shut down the border if crossings exceed certain levels as Border Patrol struggles to handle a record influx of illegal immigrants.
The proposal, part of a border bill expected to be released in the coming days, would grant the Biden administration a new expulsion authority if average migrant encounters exceed 4,000 a day across a one-week window, according to a source familiar with the negotiations.
If crossings exceed 5,000 daily per week or 8,500 in a single day, the authority would be triggered automatically, with the Department of Homeland Security forced to turn away immigrants with limited exceptions. […]
So, if the number of border crossings exceeds an average of 4000 a day, then Biden CAN start expelling people? (What if he doesn’t want to?) We’ll still have an average of 4000 more lawbreakers per day (or more) in the country than we had.
By the way, what does junior senator Ted BUrrDD have to say about his friend Thom’s hijinks?
“Again, can somebody explain to me HOW having this guy in DC is better than having a Democrat? Anyone ?”
Answer from Rep Blackwell:
Well, Tillis is better than a Democrat because a Dem never would have voted to confirm Trump’s SCOTUS choices.
Blackwell was told in a public meeting (while discussing RINOs): I’d rather vote for a Dem than for a RINO because at least with a Dem you see the knife coming and can protect yourself.
(The RINOs talk one way while they’re courting votes, then become two-faced rat bastards once they’re elected).
For Thom Tillis to call anyone or anything “immoral” is the epitome of irony. But then, it takes one to know one, doesn’t it?
McConnell sent amnesty whore Senator Lankford to negotiate with the Democrats, and he was, as expected, a total surrender monkey on what was produced.. This is a horrible deal that Speaker Johnson has declared “dead on arrival” in the House. It has lots of incentives for more illegal aliens to swarm in, and actually authorizes well over a million unvetted illegals a year. Does McConnell have a death wish for the GOP or is he just doing the bidding of those who make his wife’s family rich, the red Chinese?
Tillis, like McConnell, is channeling Benedict Arnold on this sellout. Both need to be tarred and feathered and run out of the GOP on a rail.
A recent poll found that 70% of Americans favor deporting these freeloading interlopers. If we betray the American people, as McConnell and Tillis want to do, then the voters will punish the GOP at the polls on election day. Anti-immigration parties are surging massively in Europe in both elections and polling, and American voters will be doing the same if these traitors like McConnell and Tillis do not sell us out.
Elon Musk responded to Biden’s statement on this Senate border bill by saying we did not need any new legislation, just an executive order to enforce the immigration laws already on the books. He is right. The problem is that the Biden regime is failing to enforce the existing duly adopted immigration laws, and a special prosecutor should be appointed for that in the next administration. They are aiding and abetting human smuggling by the Mexican crime cartels.
NEVER, NEVER TILLIS, but then the rumor is that he is just a placeholder these days for liberal Phil Berger to seek the seat in 2026. Berger is as bad as Tillis.
Good to see that the Oklahoma Republican Party has voted to censure and strongly condemn Senator Lankford over his pushing this awful deal on the border. Their resolution also says they will “cease all support” for Lankford.

The leadership of the Moore County GOP will probably try to censure the Oklahoma GOP for calling out their RINO and actually enforcing the party platform.
In Moore County, the leadership is so out of touch.
It’s immoral that NC Republicans put Tillis in the Senate!
It is immoral that Thom Tillis is trying to help the Mexican crime cartels continue their lucrative human smuggling business, where they are making money hand over fist. That is exactly what Lankford, Tillis, and McConnell are doing when they back this awful deal. They are nothing but useful idiots for the Mexican crime cartels. The Republican Party would be better off without those three stooges.
I contacted Budd on the Lankford deal and got back a very generalized form letter on illegal immigration generally. I called back and asked for a response specifically on the Lankford proposal but have not received any response on that so far.
Truer words have never been spoken.
Tillis has been atrocious on immigration and budget issues. He has been pretty good, but not rock solid, on 2nd Amendment issues and the Trump judicial appointments. But North Carolina must do better and Tillis must be challenged by a strong, conservative candidate in 2026. Last time his challengers had no money and little to no credibility.
Rumors are that Tillis may step aside for Phil Berger, who would be as bad or worse. We need a solid conservative candidate against either of those two duds.
Don’t say his 2020 challengers had no credibility. I was one of them, and I and the others had not only more credibility but also more morality than thom “treacherous” tillis ever thought about having. Yes, none of us had his money, and sadly, President Trump endorsed tillis when he should have stayed out of the primary. How did that work out for the good people of North Carolina?
The North Carolina machine is not going to allow conservatives to get elected. Think Thom Tillis, Tim Moore, Phil Berger, Catherine Truitt, Michael Whatley, and more.
Thom Tillis is as worthless as Mittens Romney. Both should step away from politics….BOTH IRREVELANT !
#TRUMP/YOUNGKIN ’24 !
He worked on amnesty legislation with DICK DURBIN!! This is 100% why I voted to censure him. This is 100% why I traveled this state working with counties to get county level censures. We had 53! This is why we worked so hard on the NCGOP convention floor to get this censure, which Whatley and his hand picked resolutions chair tried to bury, heard. This is why over 730 delegates stood to have this epic failure of a US Senator censured.
Don’t forget — He is sitting in the Jesse Helms seat and we know Helms is rolling over in his grave.
The cost to me to fight this battle was very high personally, but locking arms with the true grassroots conservatives to make it happen was 100% worth it!!
Here is the really rotten part of the Lankford betrayal. It protects and regularizes the legally highly problematic “parole migration” granted by Biden to 1.1 million illegal aliens last year. That is what Traitor Tillis and “China Mitch” McConnell are trying to protect, and what House Speaker Johnson says is “dead on arrival” in the House. No conservative should ever even consider voting for any Amnesty Whore politician who supports that excrement sandwich.
