As the border crisis rages, Biden & Harris laugh

Rapid Response

As Rome burned, Nero played the fiddle…as the border crisis rages, Joe Biden does nothing and Kamala Harris laughs.

In March, as border encounters surged and a record number of unaccompanied minors crossed the border, Biden denied there was a crisis and Harris laughed and said “not today” when asked when she would visit the border.

 In April, as criminal activity continued to boom, the estimated number of illegal immigrants escaping into the U.S. rose to 1,500 per day, and border encounters reached a 21-year high, Harris called questions about whether she’d visit the border “political games,” and Biden falsely claimed “we’ve now gotten control.”

 And in June, after another month with a historically high number of border crossings, including a jump in the number of people from countries beyond Mexico and the Northern Triangle, Harris dismissed the importance of going to the border as only a “grand gesture,” compared going to the border to going to Europe, and once again laughed.

Many Americans living in border communities are afraid to leave their homes. Smugglers are abandoning children as young as 5-years old on the border. Fentanyl seizures are increasing across the country.

Yet, Biden and Harris continue to fail the American people. Someone should get them a fiddle.
