- GOP split on Senate bipartisan border policy bill
- Date posted
- 3 months ago
- Description
- The bipartisan border security deal that’s headed for a pivotal first vote this week would pair $20 billion in emergency spending with policy changes that would amount to the most stringent immigration bill endorsed by a Democratic president in recent memory.
President Joe Biden is calling the bill the “toughest and fairest” in decades — and progressives are calling it a return to the Trump era.
The 370-page bill is already in jeopardy, with House Republican leaders vowing that they’ll never vote on the long-negotiated package. They are joined by conservative senators who argue that the $118 billion-plus legislation, which also sends tens of billions of dollars in aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan, has too many loopholes to effectively stop spiking migration at the southern border.

- Description
- President Joe Biden has a reputation for salty language behind closed doors. But it nearly slipped out in public during his speech at Valley Forge last month to mark the third anniversary of the Jan. 6 insurrection. Animated and angry, he derided Donald Trump and his followers for drawing glee from political violence.
“He thinks that’s funny,” Biden said. “He laughed about it. What a sick …”
Biden let his voice trail off as the crowd cheered and chuckled. In private, he doesn’t stop short.

- Groundhog Day 2024 marks 10 years since then-NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio dropped Staten Island Chuck.
The groundhog, a stand-in for Chuck named Charlotte, died days later.
The death of Staten Island Chuck and the political scandal that followed remains part of de Blasio's legacy, something the former mayor acknowledged in an interview with New York Magazine last year.
"Why would you want an elected official to hold a groundhog?" de Blasio said. "I don’t know anything about holding groundhogs. So the whole thing is just insane."
Groundhogs are no longer held during predictions at Staten Island Zoo.

- House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) denounced the latest censure attempt by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) on Thursday.
Greene is introducing her censure proposal as a privileged resolution, which would require the House to act on it within two legislative days — teeing up a vote sometime next week.
The measure accuses Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) of making "treasonous statements" in a Jan. 27 speech, a reference to a viral video clip of mistranslated remarks alleging that the Democratic lawmaker was vowing to protect Somali interests from inside America. It would also remove Omar from her spots on the House Budget and Education and Workforce Committees.

The bipartisan deal, which Senate negotiators have not yet finalized, could grant Biden’s administration the authority to shut down the border if pre-determined triggers for daily border crossings are met.

As an Ivy-educated businessman whose three terms representing suburban Minneapolis have established him as a solid mainstream legislator, though not a Capitol Hill big shot, Phillips isn’t accustomed to being treated as a marginal or kooky figure — someone like, say, the onetime spiritual guru Marianne Williamson (who actually leads him in several national Democratic polls). “They’re trying to convert me from a person of principle and competency to a kook” who can be ignored, Phillips says.
The Minnesota congressman attributes the cold shoulder to influence from a Biden campaign that he accuses of using access to pressure the media into blackballing an opponent. He says it points to something undemocratic at the heart of the Democratic Party.
