Apparently, he still hasn't figured out why he lost the primary.

"Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) announced he would introduce emergency legislation to stop the controversial deterrence and enforcement policy.

Cruz's forthcoming bill, which he promised to introduce this week, isn't expected to come with riders sought by the administration or conservative colleagues such as limiting family reunification, stopping the diversity visa lottery, or limiting legal immigration.

The senator's office did say, though, that the Protect Kids and Parents Act would mandate quickie asylum claim investigations and processing,"

I'm pretty sure Cruz won his primary in a big way. That being said, this is a terrible piece of legislation.

This can still serve interests even if it isn’t a full fix.


I figure this is going nowhere at least because Dems will want something stupid attached to it in order to pass it. That coming on the heels of the Dems blowing DACA will continue to piss off their base.

Nonstop fake outrage from our msm is working.

Some of the more idiotic republicans believe that, based on all the coverage, that most of America is outraged about this shite.

But these are dark skinned children which means they were sinners in a past life according to his Moroni cult.

It's a darn good piece of legislation that addresses an issue head-on. How unique for the Senate to have such an animal before it.

And you'd be correct. He got double the votes of all Dem candidates as well including Beta......err Beto.
