Why won’t Mike Johnson draw the line on illegal aliens?

If there is one issue worth having a budget fight over in Congress, it must be immigration enforcement.
In the same week that a 13-year-old girl was raped by recently released illegal immigrants, Joe Biden unilaterally and illegally granted amnesty to more illegal immigrants. Republicans have no better issue, timing, or political opportunity to engage in a government funding fight. Why does House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) refuse to draw a line on September 30 funding? And why is Trump giving him cover to sell us out?
Biden has flooded the border for more than three years. Heading into the election, he aims to temporarily relieve border pressure while focusing on securing the permanent residency of millions of illegal immigrants in the interior. Biden on Tuesday announced amnesty for an estimated 550,000 illegal immigrant spouses of legal residents. This was not his first amnesty effort. He has already extended “temporary protected status” indefinitely to 860,000 illegal immigrants.
