The Oklahoma Republican Party approved a resolution Saturday condemning and censuring Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.) for his role as a chief negotiator in the Senate border security talks between Democrats and Republicans.

The resolution — a copy of which was posted on X, formerly Twitter — by state Sen. Dusty Deevers ® said, “Senator Lankford playing fast and loose with Democrats on our border policy not only disfranchises legal immigrants seeking citizenship but it also puts the safety and security of Americans in great danger.”

Senate negotiators have been working for weeks to negotiate a compromise on border and immigration policy that is meant to address the number of migrants who come across the U.S. border with Mexico.

    Dusty Deevers, lmao. I went to elementary school with him for a few years. You don’t forget a name like that. Trust me, he comes by the dipshitidness honestly from growing up in that Oklahoma town. It’s isolated and simple, and at least 50 years behind the times. I wouldn’t call anyone from there wordly.

    I was obviously just a kid at the time, but an opportunity came and I noped the hell out.
