Inhofe: Obama Trying to Trade Border Security for Sweeping Amnesty
President Barack Obama’s zeal to give illegal immigrants amnesty is holding the nation’s border security “hostage” to his political agenda, GOP Sen. James Inhofe tells Newsmax in an exclusive interview. He believes the president is clearly using border security as a bargaining chip to obtain amnesty for millions of illegal aliens residing in the United States.

As Obama called on Congress to tackle comprehensive immigration reform in a speech Thursday afternoon, Inhofe told Newsmax in an exclusive interview that the president is clearly using border security as a bargaining chip to obtain amnesty for millions of illegal aliens residing in the United States.
That was the same charge made by Inhofe’s friend and colleague, Arizona GOP Sen. John Kyl, who stirred controversy last week when he revealed a discussion in which Obama told him that taking action to secure the Mexican border “would remove the incentive for comprehensive immigration reform.” The White House has denied Kyl’s allegation.
Inhofe told Newsmax that he has total faith in Kyl’s assertion because he “has never told a lie” in the almost 25 years he has known him.
Consequently, he places more confidence in Kyl’s credibility than that of the White House.
