Warner: Dems Didn’t Do Border Bill when We Controlled Congress Because Border Bills Are Hard, Failed Before
Breitbart ^ | 02/06/2024 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 02/06/2024 6:24:58 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

On Tuesday’s broadcast of Bloomberg’s “Balance of Power,” Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) responded to a question on why Democrats didn’t pass a border bill when they controlled both chambers of Congress and the White House by stating that coming up with immigration bills is hard and by pointing to other immigration bills that came up in other Congresses.

Co-host Kailey Leinz asked, “Senator, what we heard from President Biden, speaking from the White House today, was that he intends to make this known to voters that if this fails, he says it fails because of Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans. But doesn’t the fact remain that Democrats have had control of the Senate since 2021, Biden’s been in the White House since 2021? Is this just an issue of Democrats not deciding to do something about this earlier when they had control?”

Nonsense.

Deceitful nonsense.

Immigration bills are extraordinarily easy, however if, and only if, we want the illegal alien invasion stopped.

Warner is just a symptom.

The real problem is that significant portion of the population of Virginia who voted for this idiot.

Warner is a squishy coward. Suffered under his incompetent and cowardice for years. No known cure for it.

The purpose of “ border Bills” has nothing to do with border security.

Dems in 2021: “There’s no crisis at the border.”
in 2022: “There’s no crisis at the border.”
in 2023: “There’s no crisis at the border.”
in 2024: “There’s been a crisis at the border for years and if House Republicans don’t pass this bill giving 75B to Ukraine ,it’s their fault.”

Thanks to that treasonous prick Lankford and the other rino’s the rats/MSM have their BS narrative. Gone is the truth that Trump was able to control the border without having change or add a single law.

Yes it is. But they always wait until Regime Collaborator Repubs go along, so the Dems can blame them.

(Rush used to talk about this a lot)

“Warner is the best Virginia can do? 🙄 Pure retard”

Warner is the best that the major population centers in Virginia can do. We, like New York are subject to the whims of major population centers. It really sucks to live in Virginia if you’re not living and breathing liberalism and socialism as the major population centers in the state apparently enjoy. If it’s constitutional I think States in Virginia’s situation need electoral colleges because 90% of the Virginian landmass and the citizenry residing therein is disenfranchised.

“Oh please. Just enforce the laws ya criminals.”

Everybody needs to pay attention to what’s going on with the Border and the legislation that is working its way through Congress. What we need is border security not border immigration. Border security secures the Border... immigration just hires more clerks to push the paperwork through. Be careful when listening to Schumer that he never says border security and neither do his cohorts, a few Republicans actually say “security.” It will be terrible to see a border immigration bill. A border security bill is what needs to be applied.

The talking heads are trying to manipulate public knowledge away from the fact that there are eight or nine things that could be done right now to secure the border and none of them require Congress. Biden started this mess and can easily end it but he does not wish it so, and therefore is being criminally negligent at the National level.

“Be careful when listening to Schumer”

Why would I ever listen to Schumer?

Listen, we have laws on the books, common sense and the constitution

Anything anyone,(especially Schumer) says about changing or adding laws and policy is simply trying to take advantage of the American people while they collect in earned wealth at our expense. They’ll also soon start acting in desperate ways. It won’t be pretty

“Why would I ever listen to Schumer?”

Listen to Schumer because he is the enemy, he is the opposition, and the need exists in preparation for Intel directly from the horse’s mouth, not eord of mouth.

When Schumer says an immigration bill he’s not talking about a border security issue. A lot of people would miss that. That’s why We the People have to dissect everything that come out past that snakes lips. He’s as slimy as Harry Reed, maybe moreso.

Man if you’re so inclined you can ask your Congressman or senator what Schumer means buying immigration package in relation or versus a border security package. Lemmings wouldn’t do that.

You don’t have to be a lemming to not have any desire to waste time asking a congressman anything of substance.

If they know Schumer is a class a grifter out to rip off the American people they’re not going to discuss it. If they don’t know it tgeyre idiots.

I know that. And when I say check out humor you really have to listen to less than 25 maybe 30 words and understand what devilish ideas are flowing up through his head Pelosi is the same way, but many people think the immigration bill is a border security bill and it is anything but. And completely superfluous.
