Why the border deal is a joke, and not a funny one.

Don't forget about the "non contiguous migrants won't be counted in immigration quota" language that was underlined in the Tim Pool podcast. This means entire plane loads can be delivered and immediately escorted onto buses without any government screening.

None of this really matters though. Trumps already told republicans not to vote for any bill regarding border control, because he wants to campaign on it over the next year.

He wants the border crisis to be as bad as possible so he can convince voters he’s the only one that can fix it. Therefore nothing of significance will pass.

Biden could win the election, hands down, if he just secured the border now by enforcing existing laws.

Biden would win, legally, if he just did that.

The border was more secure under Trump.

The border stopped being secure when Biden rescinded Trumps EO's on the border and stopped enforcing laws.

Look at the stats, less people crossed under Obama than Trump.

Truth is, the border crisis has been an issue for over 40 years plus. No one president can fix it without extreme measures, which would involve arresting patriotic American citizens that hire illegals. No one is going to do that… therefore the problem will never be fixed.

Best thing a president can accomplish is passing a few bills to give the illusion they’re doing something about it.

America has an addiction to cheap labor. No wall or extra security is going to change that fact.

Biden used the same power to force the border open that he could use to force it closed.

While you certainly can argue what incentivizing looks like, to make this Trumps fault is still stupid silly.

Even if he did in reality have the power to shut down the border, why would he? It’d cost the American economy billions and would do little to stop illegal crossings. Even Trump didn’t go any further than just threatening to do it… and for good reason.

That's not true.

Stop lying.

Biden could close the border now.

If he wanted to.

Point being, he does. Did you somehow miss that?


Now, why would he? Because he is shaming congress for not voting the "border bill" as recently as.....today.

To these people, especially some of those overseas etc (shocker) are basically saying “f ur border U.S. !!”

and “because Zelensky needs that money more than you do!!”

So, these people think U.S. is already over ran.

Basically saying it’s pointless to focus on etc. And might as well just shift the funding over to some 2bit corrupted regime in Ukraine instead.

Which has become so bad, that it’s been popping up lately everywhere more on the news.

Including sometimes on Zelensky’s onlyfans pages.

If funding foreign nations and wars wasn't good enough, the skimmers and profiteers running our government are rabid over it.

Saw a video where Al Sharpton is calling it an invasion at the border, but still blaming Republicans because they won't pass this horrible bill.

Last week, Senate Leader CHUCK SCHUMER tried to revive this so-called "Border Security" bill again.

It didn't even get off the ground in the Senate, because it's becoming clearer Americans (who told their Senators to reject it), that tens of billions of dollars will be sent to BLUE states and BLUE cities, to help them bribe migrants, by clothing them, giving them $$$ every month, healthcare, education, and in some states, Driver's Licenses and Voting ID's.

Schumer slapped down hard!: conservativebrief.com...

If the Biden Administration and his Democrats REALLY CARED about border security, they would have done something in 2021 and 2022, when they had 100% control of the Federal Government. (WH-House-Senate)

BUT THEY SQUANDERED THEIR OPPORTUNITY...and focused on Increasing U.S. Inflation instead.

Sick people. 🤪

Oh, they didn't 'squander' their opportunity. They exploited their squander. As I've always stated, it's about money....and power. They WANT things the way they are, chaos, instability, dissatisfaction etc.

And as Biden has said, Americans "have the money to spend". The left want every penny.....every penny we have to 'fix' all those squandered opportunities. And then more money to maintain all the 'fixes'.
