Per Chad Pergram.

Republicans agree to healthcare funding for illegals but the costs must be offset by cuts elsewhere.

No word on Democrats’ response.

A few minutes ago on Fox.

Sounds about right. Republicans don't know what to do when they win...

I’m convinced they want to lose the midterms so TEMU Obama can impeach Trump.

Good God.

What the hell?

Not only have we become a domestic welfare state, we are an international welfare state.

It's not even about the money, even though that's substantial, it's about the principle. Illegals shouldn't be getting a dime of taxpayer money or taxpayer-funded services.

If this is true, I'm done. I will have officially given up on our 2 party system. America will be finished as it coasts into insolvency.

I hope this is a trail balloon.


As Bannon says, "man the ramparts". I.e., call your representative and give them hell.

But if we kick all of the illegals out there won’t be any of their healthcare to pay for and we’ll have additional cuts approved.

Most GOP'ers in Congress never had a problem with spending some money to give healthcare to illegal aliens. Rush Limbaugh talked about this notion of spending US tax dollars to give health care to illegal aliens more than 20 years ago. This has been happening via legal loopholes.

It recently STOPPED because of ONE man - Donald Trump, who isn't even really a Republican. The REAL Republicans dislike Trump and his policies.

It should be no surprise that many Congressional Republicans want to cave on this issue in order to end the Shutdown. Really it should not be a surprise.

Trump is so high on the peace deal that he loses his discipline on everything else.

This was our one real chance. Very disappointing.

Counter-point: they know exactly what they're doing.
