• MEDIA: Speaker Johnson's Big Test: He Must Block Senate's Border Deal.

    VDare's Washington Watcher II on whether Donald Trump will select
    Amy Swonger to be his Director of Legislative Affairs: <URL:https://vdare.com/articles/speaker-johnson-s-big-test-he-must-block-senate-s-border-deal-he-probably-will>
    | My take: If Trump remains opposed to the bill, then Johnson will
    | kill it in the House. Otherwise Trump could get enough House members
    | to oust him if the Speaker. And Trump is incentivized to oppose any
    | deal because it would count as a win for his 2024 opponent, muddy
    | his campaign message of being against the Swamp, and alienate his
    | own base.

    Does Casey DeSantis regret that David McIntosh's Club for Growth did
    not sponsor anti-Trump attack ads warning legacy American proles that
    Trump will sign bipartisan comprehensive immigration reform
    legislation passed by the likes of Mike Johnson and Mitch McConnell
    so long as the Cheap Labor Lobby authors sprinkle in the magic words: "merit-based"?
