House Democrats Call on Biden to Secure the Border

But WAIT! The Border is already secure - why call for Biden to do anything?

Fifteen House Democrats have called on President Joe Biden to take executive action to secure the U.S.-Mexico border, according to a letter obtained by CBS News.

Reportedly, the lawmakers from Minnesota, Arizona, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Michigan, among other states, are facing touch campaign cycles. In the letter to the president, they urged him to “immediately take further action to restore order at the Southern border and fix our broken immigration system.”

Reportedly, the letter was led by Minnesota Democratic Rep. Angie Craig. Others who signed the letter include Rep. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI), Rep. Susan Wild (D-PA), Rep. Matt Cartwright (D-PA), Rep. Susie Lee (D-NV), Rep. Steven Horsford (D-NV).

"It has become clear that the current situation remains untenable, but with Republicans playing politics on border security, it is time for your administration to act," the letter said. "We urge you to use all tools at your disposal, including executive action, to better address security at the Southern border, interdict illicit fentanyl and allow for orderly legal immigration."

The lawmakers explained in their letter that "all of our constituents, no matter our congressional district, have felt the impacts of the current border situation."

Angelo Fernández Hernández, a White House spokesperson, responded to the letter in an email, claiming that "congressional Republicans chose to put partisan politics ahead of our national security, and rejected what border agents have said they need."

So how long before they get indicted for something? You know, like what happened right after the mayor of NYC started raising a stink about old Joe's immigration policies. Or what happened to Rep. Henry Cuellar in Texas after he fussed about it.

And as stated Republicans are as usual just playing politics with the immigration issue, not really wanting the problems resolved and the above plea from democrats to the President is the very reason for the Republicans political gamesmanship. The Senate passed immigration bill would have gone a long way towards addressing all of the border issues but Republicans of course blocked it.
Biden can't do a hell of a lot if the republican majority House refuses to cooperate.

Here - lemme put it in a way you might be able to understand...

Both sides are doing it, Jim.

But the lying dishonest low life scumbag corrupt treasonous sell-out godless anti-American pinko commie liberal Democrats are playing both sides against themselves, lying that the border is secure when it's not, and suddenly pretending to care about it because they know that REAL Americans believe our country doesn't need a bunch of non-citizens voters determining who gets to be POTUS, and weak-minded dope-smoking durn-near illiterate bird-brain dummies don't have the common sense or intelligence to see that the wool is being pulled over their dope-dimmed eyes, believing every little like the lying dishonest low life scumbag corrupt treasonous sell-out godless anti-American pinko commie liberal Democrats put out there.

Apparently the bong has made you forget that the majority of the problems we are now seeing at the border are a direct result of old Joe signing a bunch of Executive Orders in the first days of his term. And many of those problems can be solved by old Joe simply rescinding those orders. That he continues to refuse to do so and instead lie that he needs Republicans to help him only serves to show how disingenuous the claim that the left wants to fix the mess they made is.

That's dumb, but that's you. Democrats are not saying that the border is secure, that's either just plain dishonesty or utter stupidity on your part to say. The Democrats along with Senate Republicans passed an immigration reform bill to address the chaotic conditions at the border and Biden promised to sign it. That's hardly claiming that the border is secure. But your actual hero and traitor Donald Trump and the republican House nixed that deal for political reasons, and you know that.

and suddenly pretending to care about it because they know that REAL Americans believe our country doesn't need a bunch of non-citizens voters determining who gets to be POTUS.

And once again you're just being your usual dishonest self. That non citizens get to vote is a lie CP. Apparently you like to believe and spread that lie probably because it gives explanation as to why you're a loser and your treasonous hero was ousted in a fair and free democratic election.

and weak-minded dope-smoking durn-near illiterate bird-brain dummies don't have the common sense or intelligence to see that the wool is being pulled over their dope-dimmed eyes, believing every little like the lying dishonest low life scumbag corrupt treasonous sell-out godless anti-American pinko commie liberal Democrats put out there.

Hmm, I agree with all of that except that you surely you confused liberal Democrats with yourself and your fascist treason supporting Republicans!!

Really rogue. How about you tell us what all of those EO's were that Biden signed. The whole bunches of them!!

That's dumb...

And you're about to show what SUPER-dumb and totally dishonest is...

Democrats are not saying that the border is secure,

Outright lie...

Homeland Security Secretary Mayorkas tells lawmakers ‘the border is not open’ amid migrant surge

that's either just plain dishonesty or utter stupidity on your part to say.

Why don't you try really hard to derectumize your big empty cranius?

And once again you're just being your usual dishonest self.

You won't find a single lie I've told, Jim, it's only in your big dope-smoking nearly illiterate head.

Your dishonesty is in taking comments out of contexts and giving your own meaning to them. Mayorkas knows as well as anyone that immigrants are illegally crossing the border as they always have been. That's not to say the border is open as you like to dishonestly portray it, and as previously stated the Republicans, the Trumpets, blocked an immigration reform bill that would have addressed both the illegal influx as well as the processing and deportation delays. You know that, but being a member of the Trump cult you just can't admit to it .

Your dishonesty...

Is only in your big empty head, Jim - I don't know a single person here who takes you seriously, because all you ever do is spew forth extremely biased leftwing crap.

Shame on you CP. We all know that Jim could give Ghandi and Mother Teresa lessons on tranquility and respect.

I'm guessing maybe he ran out of dope so the mellow wore off.
