Sounds like there are at least a few sensible Republicans out there. Too bad they are drowned out by those far-right ones who have no clue and are totally unwilling to compromise.

Read this McCain, explain to the dead mens families why they died and then look at your stupid bill...

INDIANAPOLIS — A man being held in a suspected drunken-driving crash that killed Indianapolis Colts linebacker Edwin Jackson and his Uber driver has been twice deported from the U.S. — a revelation an Indiana congressman said Monday should anger “all Americans.”

Manuel Orrego-Savala, 37, remained jailed Monday but has not been charged in Sunday’s deadly crash along Interstate 70 in Indianapolis. State Police said Monday that he’s a citizen of Guatemala who gave officers a fake name when he was arrested following the pre-dawn crash.

Investigators said he was deported in 2007 and 2009, and was again living illegally in the U.S.

That affidavit, which was filed Sunday under the fake name Manuel Orrego-Savala gave police, also states two vials of blood were drawn from Orrego-Savala by a nurse at a hospital about 90 minutes later and sent for analysis. It said Orrego-Savala has prior run-ins with law enforcement for driving without a valid license and that he was walking away from the crash scene when an Indiana state trooper arrived and detained him.

How nice that you would encourage a foreign head of state to openly advocate for subverting American laws. I guess that tells me where your loyalties lie.

John McCain is a first-class PITA.

The stats show otherwise . If the jobs weren't there they wouldn't come.

No, what we NEED is elected officials at all levels to follow the laws as written instead of only doing what their donors or loud/violent groups demand (in spite of the law(s)) in order to get elected/re-elected...

I don't care what reason illegals are sneaking across the border. None of them have any business doing that. Period.
I mean if you knew that, then you could effectively solve the issue no?
