    Morris Dees and $PLC certified deplorable, Andrew Arthur on whether NeverBackDown.ORG's Ken Cuccinelli and Steve Cortes advised Casey
    DeSantis to task Ron to obtain the permission of David McIntosh's ClubForGrowth.ORG to deploy the likes of Mike Emmons and Maria
    Espinoza onto Lachlan Murdoch's FoxNews.COM to impeach Donald Trump
    for endorsing Mitch McConnell and Jim Lankford: <URL:https://cis.org/Arthur/Administration-Senate-Border-Bill-and-Brewing-Constitutional-Imbalance>
    | Finally, on the night of Sunday, February 4, the bill language
    | emerged from its cocoon and was rushed to the floor by Senate
    | Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) for a test vote -- without
    | going through "regular order", i.e., without being considered and
    | marked-up in committee, which is the norm.
    |
    | A vote on the 370-page bill was held three days later, where it
    | failed with 49 yeas to 50 nays. Four Republicans voted in favor:
    | Sens. Susan Collins (Maine), Lisa Murkowski (Alaska), Mitt Romney
    | (Utah), and Lankford himself. Aside from Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R-
    | Wyo.), who was not available to vote, the rest of the GOP conference
    | opposed the bill. That part you've likely heard.
    |
    | Overlooked in most of these discussions is the fact that a number of
    | leading Democrats voted against the bill as well, including
    | Massachusetts Sens. Ed Markey and Elizabeth Warren, California Sen.
    | Alex Padilla, and Sen. Bernie Sanders (Vt.) an independent who
    | caucuses with Democrats in the Senate.

    Will Trump nominate NASSCOM.IN/AmericaFirstPolicy.COM's Chad Wolf to
    succeed Alejandro Mayorkas at DHS.GOV and how does Amy Swonger
    guestimate it will cost Trump to convince John Thune (or Rick Scott)
    to consent?
