The DHS funding fight that repugicans provoked with
President Obama is a hole that Boehner keeps digging himself
deeper and deeper into.
Listen to Sarah and Jason discuss the repugican cabal’s six weeks of disaster:
Boehner and the repugicans provoked a
confrontation with the president over his immigration executive actions,
but now they find themselves painted into a corner. Senate repugicans
will try once again to move the House-passed bill that would fund
Homeland Security while overturning President Obama’s executive actions
on immigration on February 23.
The bill is widely expected to be blocked by Senate
Democrats. To date, repugicans have yet to pick any additional votes of
support from the Senate Democrats on this bill. The repugican reign as
the congressional majority has resulted in one passed bill becoming law
in six weeks.
The Homeland Security funding crisis is another in a
long line of repugican manufactured crisis over the last few years. The repugicans can’t govern. They won’t govern, and creating a crisis is
their way of distracting from their failures.
One of the major consistencies in American politics
right now is that the repugican cabal can be counted on cause drama and
crisis.
