7/7 🧵
Bottom line: Senate GOP cowardice on immigration enforcement could cost Republicans the midterms — and hand Democrats the impeachment they've been dreaming of.

6/7 🧵
One silver lining: ICE agents stepped in for TSA during the shutdown — and travelers saw firsthand how competent, professional, and helpful they are. Up to 75% are military vets or former law enforcement. Democrat slander against them is exposed as lies.
5/7 🧵
GOP infighting deepens. Between the Senate's 2 a.m. betrayal, failure to pass Trump's SAVE Act, refusal to abolish the filibuster, and former adviser Joe Kent undermining the Iran war rationale, the party looks fractured heading into midterms.
4/7 🧵
Meanwhile, in sanctuary NYC, Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg offered a 6-month plea deal to a trans illegal alien who raped a 14-year-old boy. The predator — previously arrested for armed robbery, assault, and prostitution — was released by Biden admin and protected by Dems.
3/7 🧵
The political cost is severe. Immigration was the issue in 2024 — 78M voters backed Trump to seal the border and deport criminal illegals. Now Senate Republicans handed Democrats the moral high ground by caving on enforcement funding.
2/7 🧵
The shutdown deal froze immigration enforcement funding at the worst possible time — as the US engages the world's largest sponsor of Islamic terrorism. House Speaker Mike Johnson called it "unconditional surrender masquerading as a solution."
1/7 🧵
Senate Majority Leader John Thune cut a 2 a.m. deal that defunded ICE and border enforcement — then fled DC hours later with a grin, leaving House Republicans furious and the GOP base betrayed.
