What do the Democrats plan to do with the illegal immigrants they catch with their virtual wall. Put them in cages or just let them go into the country anyway

Just move on over to the Democratic Party! We really can do without you as a false Republican.

hey, support what's right. that's all there is to it.

....but your 'peeps' in NY will thank you for compromising when appropriate ...

😟😝😛😡😂😌just say it.... your a RINO why didn't you just change parties like the other four before they were even sworn in. Wow

Video surfaces of WaPo op-ed contributor chanting ‘Death to America’ Washington Post is straight up democrat media. Think of all the low information democrats🐍 the Post leads astray! Where's your outrage?

TomReedCongress you sellout what dirt do they have on TomReedCongress

He might want to go Independent. I can't imagine that working to get things done is something his constituents support.

All lip service, you can't change the spots on a leopard. He is from a Republishit district in NY and is a fucking Republishit. Don't fall for the bipartisan shit!

Yeah, Putin will not be very happy with his puppets. Sad.

This is exactly what is supposed to happen in Congress. We are in this mess in my opinion because hard line partisan positions have been taken by both sides for far too long.

You will never hear a democrat saying this. They are always loyal to party.

Jan 2 Isfahan Iran The sound of air strikes by the riot forces in the farmers' demonstrations. Protesters rallying for their water rights. IranProtests

Wow. A statesman, not just another politician. Hang on to him, NY. Ohio is looking for people like him.

I call bs

So what. That's what he SUPPOSED TO DO. if doing the right thing costs you your job, then SO BE IT.

The should drop him from the ways and means and maybe the Democrats will give him one of their spots for his loyalty

Ol

If he was really honorable he would stop posing as a Republican and switch parties. Punk.

You know, he could just do the honorable thing and resign from the Republican Party.

He got Pelosied Trump loses again.

Good for him. I'll call him a 'republican' instead of my usual 'republiKKKlan.'

Uh, can someone tell the moron we live in a REPUBLIC.

This is a tactic by him. He supports the rule because of the long term effects it will have on policy. PAYGO will kill chances of medicare for all or any other initiative proposed to make lives better.

With such 'friends' who needs enemies

Congressmen ought to care less about 'consequences' and more about doing the right thing for Americans. That means supporting fair, common sense rules that do not unfairly benefit one side over another.

Senate GOP leader rips Rep. King over white supremacy remarkSenate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Monday denounced Rep. Steve King over his latest remarks on white supremacy, saying, 'There is no place in the Republican Party, the Congress or the country for an ideology of racial supremacy of any kind.' McConnell is the highest-ranking... Romney should try to primary Trump. In today’s GOP, you can give racist dog whistles. But do not be explicit. I am glad there are some morals left in the GOP. This is better than none. 'Now, I love being home in this place where Ann and I were raised, where both of us were born. Ann was born at Henry Ford Hospital, I was born at Harper Hospital. No one's ever asked to see my birth certificate. They know that this is the place that we were born and raised.'
