Texas Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) unloaded on the Senate’s proposed border bill in a lengthy X thread on Monday; he says the Senate bill “is NOT well-intended.”

“It is also not a border security bill. It is, however, a bill designed by Democrats to boost Biden against Trump by helping Dems blame Republicans for open borders,” Roy said, “a trap into which some GOP willingly walk in order to fund an insatiable desire for endless wars.”

 

“The bill BORROWS some $118BB to fund $60BB for Ukraine, in addition to other Foreign Aid (Israel & Taiwan), plus $20BB for alleged ‘border security…’” Roy continues.

“The border ‘crisis’ is a crisis not of resources or lack of authority, but rather the result of abuse of law by the President – the willing disregard of the text & spirit of laws designed to maintain operational … control of the border & secure our nation – in favor of using judge-made loopholes & very limited exceptions (asylum & parole) to establish a default of ‘encounter & release’ instead of ‘encounter & remove,’” he said.

“The Senate ‘deal’ is designed to accept and perpetuate the Democrat scam of mass migration,” Roy said before listing out a series of takeaways from the bipartisan Senate bill.

“In conclusion, this bill is a partisan ‘uniparty’ war bill masquerading as border security that perpetuates open borders, massive debt, & continued proxy wars… a ‘shiny object’ not worthy of further comment beyond immediate burial in the grave,” Roy said, ending his thread with a “#SecureAmericaFirst” hashtag.

The Senate is planning to hold a vote on the bill as early as this week.
