BUSTED! Boehner cut deal with Pelosi to use Netanyahu speech as cover to fund Obama's executive amnesty
DAMMIT, I knew it! Shamefully predictable. I posed this theory to friends on Tuesday:
" I have a theory...as much as Netanyahu needed to give that magnificent speech this morning, John Boehner used the occasion, used Bibi, to give him the out to push passage of a clean DHS bill, and thus ram through funding for Obama's amnesty."
And now today, to all of our displeasure, that prediction was proven correct...
Breitbart: A new bombshell report from Politico found that House Speaker John Boehner had several days of secret negotiations with Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, the recently emboldened former Speaker, leading up to his decision to flip-flop and fund President Obama’s executive amnesty—including a pre-hashed out deal to use the hoopla around Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Tuesday address to Congress over Iran’s nuclear ambitions as political cover to sneak in the extraordinarily controversial vote. Even with the bombshell report, however, Boehner’s office continues to deny any deal took place.
“It was Monday at 5:30 p.m. when Pelosi and Boehner agreed that it was ‘best to take up the matter on Tuesday immediately after Netanyahu’s address in order to deal with the matter as quickly as possible upon return of the Senate papers,’ according to an aide familiar with the conversations,” Politico’s Lauren French wrote on Thursday evening.
That part of a supposed deal between Pelosi and Boehner came after what French reported were several days of negotiating and dealmaking between the current and former Speaker.
When House Republicans are weighing a coup against Boehner after this series of political defeats, while Democrats are vowing to protect Boehner from a conservative coup, there can be only one solution:
THIS BENEDICT ARNOLD MUST GO!
