House Speaker Paul Ryan zeroed in on his commitment to solve the Dreamers problem and find a DACA fix Thursday, but said he only wants to bring a bill that the president supports to the floor:

"To anyone who doubts my intention to solve this problem and bring up a DACA and immigration reform bill, do not," said Ryan. "I want to make sure it gets done right the first time. I don't want to risk a veto."


Pelosi’s marathon Dreamers speech: "That was pretty darn impressive and she wasn’t wearing these kinds of shoes. I would’ve gone to the bathroom way before that."

Budget deal: "Guess what? In order to shift our focus and get on to the next big priority, which is a DACA solution, we gotta get this budget agreement done." Ryan added he thinks the bipartisan deal will get enough votes in the house.

Does his political future (which some say is uncertain) play a role in what immigration bill he brings to the floor? "It doesn’t. Not at all. I don’t think about it at all."

Well, that’s for damn sure. So what’s the deal with the bill/list Trump provided and we were fine with?

No news here? Have you been following what's been going on? Pelosi stood for over 8 hours yesterday giving a speech about Dreamers because she wanted Ryan to agree to debate on a bipartisan bill. He did not. He is reiterating the same thing he had said before, that he will only bring a bill to the floor that the President supports, which means Dems could vote against the House spending bill and we could have another shutdown.

I want to get it right the first time, and I think we can get there,” Ryan said. “I’m confident we can bring a bipartisan solution to the floor that can get signed into law and solve this problem.”

Okay , that rules out the Goodlatte Bill hopefully.

Bipartisan and Trump approved are currently unreconciliable points.

There is not going to be another shutdown especially over immigration/DACA. Americans would be pissed off. They want their government funded and polls have shown again and again that while voters think DACA should be addressed they do not support a shutdown over the issue. It would be political suicide with midterms coming up in 9 months.

Trump wants a good shut down over immigration...
