Nancy Pelosi Backtracks on ‘Crisis’ Talk in Stunning Border Reversal

To put it bluntly, and in a nod to the 1990s, we’ll just say: No duh, Nancy. For years, and likely decades, the southern border of the US has been a dangerous place. Still, people from all around the world attempt to traverse this no-man’s land to enter the United States – a land of dreams and hope for many. They risk it all: Harsh environmental conditions, possible arrest by American border authorities, the brutality of the Mexican drug cartels who patrol the areas, and the insidious nature of the unscrupulous “coyotes” who are tasked with providing passage. By allowing these migrants to endure these conditions, US immigration policy has, for years, been perpetuating this crisis.

There is no border between Mexico and the Uniteed States.

There is a buffer zone that is controlled by the drug cartels.

The cartels pay the Democrats and the Uniparty to look the other way.

PIGlosy”s name probably will be in the soon to be released documents, so she’s trying to kiss Trump’s as$.

[Lurkinanloomin]

Bush League Republicans who push amnesty like Flimsey Grahamnesty and Micro Rubio are equally responsible as Democrats for the continuation of the invasion.

They have also opposed every effort to stop it.

Bush League Republicans MUST be replaced.

[SaveFerris]

Democrat Open Borders is a losing strategy.

Don’t ever forget this, voters.

The internal polling numbers probably show some voters are waking up to the fact the Democrats are taking America down.

[Libloather]

Say it Nancy! TRUMP WAS RIGHT! Saaaaaay iiiiiiiit...

[Liz]

.......internal polling numbers probably show voters are "woke".......knowing Democrats are taking America down......

Democraps no longer see government as a way to help the populace.

Power-hungry Democraps are an invading force, waging war on we, the peaceful people.

[chris37]

No, we did not never say there ain’t never was not a crisis is.

[SaveFerris]

Yes, Democrats want illegal aliens for votes.

Democrats do not care what happens to the American people, even in the short term.

Just as long as they get to stay in power by illegal votes.

This is why Democrats oppose any sort of Voter I.D. laws. /Captain Obvious

They know it takes them out of power in a lot of places.

Their pro-immigrant stance is costing the Democrats dearly, however, and even Nancy Pelosi has been forced to backtrack on her previous stance as the border crisis becomes undeniable. PELOSI: “Well, let me just say this. We have never not said that there was a crisis — there is a humanitarian crisis at the border, and some of it provoked by the actions taken by the administration,” Pelosi stated during her weekly press conference in the Capitol Visitor Center on Wednesday.

Balderdash......these statements run counter to Pelosi and her fellow Democrats have been saying for years. During a joint press conference in January, Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) accused the president of using the “backdrop of the Oval Office to manufacture a crisis, stoke fear, and divert attention.”

Further, House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer said of the situation at the Southern border after a visit to El Paso, Texas: “The first, most dramatic thing we found was there is no crisis.” Democrats have one last obstacle to face, it seems: How to appease their anti-Trump base when the party is clearly aligning with the President on this very real, time-sensitive matter.

BACKSTORY---PELOSI PLEDGES HER UNDYING LOYALTY TO MEXICO--
demeans American citizens and Trump to Mexican officials

In 2016, Nancy brought a Congressional delegation to Mexico City to meet with Mexican dignitaries. Pelosi told the Mexican president and his entourage: “We come here as a bipartisan and large delegation to express our respect for the people of Mexico and the country of Mexico; to acknowledge our shared border and our shared values and to learn more about how we can work together for the bright future for not only our two countries but for our hemisphere.”

Pelosi later said the Congressional delegation had a busy time in Mexico City. “We heard a sermon on the importance of workers in Mexico, a view we share. We’ve met with members of the American Chamber of Commerce. We had a very beneficial meeting with Director General Zapata on the subject of the economy and on the subject of TPP (trade pact) especially.

"And then we had a glorious meeting, a really very thorough exchange of subjects and views – again about our shared values and our shared border – with the President [of Mexico]......with Members of the Federal Deputies – Mexican Federal Deputies – and Senators. And in the evening we had a dinner meeting with the Mexican Foreign Minister,” Pelosi said.

PELOSI DEMEANS AMERICAN CITIZENS WHILE ON MEXICAN SOIL
PELOSI SLAMS DONALD TRUMP TO MEXICAN OFFICIALS
(BEFORE TRUMP GOT THE NOM AND GOT ELECTED BY 63 MILLION AMERICANS)

CIRCA 2016----Pelosi in Mexico telling Mexican officials Trump is speaking to an "insecure minority," who maybe lost their job and
think it was because of immigration, or trade. I think it's putting too much weight on all this. Trump only has one half of one half, 25%."

The 2016 Congressional delegation to Mexico also included Democrat Reps. Norma Torres, Lucille Roybal-Allard, Pete Aguilar and Linda Sanchez (Calif.); Beto O'Rourke and Henry Cuellar (Texas); Ruben Gallego (Ariz.); Michelle Lujan Grisham (N.M.); and Republicans Michael Fitzpatrick (Pa.) and Richard Hanna (N.Y.).

SCHADENFREUD Beto sucked-up bigtime for latino votes....but still lost his Texas race against Cruz.

[plain talk]

No back-tracking to speak of

Pelosi — ““Well, let me just say this. We have never not said that there was a crisis — there is a humanitarian crisis at the border, and some of it provoked by the actions taken by the administration,” Pelosi stated during her weekly press conference in the Capitol Visitor Center on Wednesday.”

[sparklite2]

We have never not said that there was a crisis

---

Joseph Heller would be proud of that line.

“When did you say that about Colonel Cathcart?”
“I never said that about Colonel Cathcart!”
“But WHEN did you never say it?”
“I ALWAYS never said it.”

[caww]

Nancy isn't believable under any circumstances unless she stands to gain something personally and politically.....so she can sing her tune as she wants I don't believe her for a second..... And by the way as leader of the house she just pushed thru the bill forcing schools to include male athletes who identify as transgender girls on female sports teams....and it passed with 8 republicans agreeing.

[Secret Agent Man]

We should move the congress to the southern border.

In regular buildings with no perks or security. You know, like the people living there have to experience.
