El Paso, Texas – More than three months after Biden assigned Kamala Harris to manage the border crisis, she is finally traveling to the US-Mexico border for the first time in El Paso, Texas on Friday, June 25 – but only after President Trump vowed to go first.
Although the specifics of her visit have not yet been released, Harris’ senior adviser and chief spokesperson confirmed that she will be accompanied by Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.
Kamala Harris made it a priority to schedule foreign trips to Guatemala and Mexico earlier this month to address “root causes” of the mass migration, but she appeared to show hesitation when it came to visiting America’s frontlines where most illegal immigration crossings, drug trafficking, and human trafficking, is occurring.
Her announcement came shortly after President Donald J. Trump announced he would be visiting the border on Wednesday, June 30, to draw attention to the federal government’s lack of response and unwillingness to alter the course of a dramatic uptick in border apprehensions not seen since 2006, according to preliminary Customs and Border Protection data.
“After months of ignoring the crisis at the Southern Border, it is great that we got Kamala Harris to finally go and see the tremendous destruction and death that they’ve created—a direct result of Biden ending my very tough but fair Border policies,” said Trump in a statement on Wednesday.
“Harris and Biden were given the strongest Border in American history. And now, it is by far the worst in American history,” Trump continued, slamming their mishandling of the border. “If Governor Abbott and I weren’t going there next week, she would have never gone!”
El Paso is 10 miles from the border. Nowhere NEAR it.
You can go to south San Diego (Chula Vista) and be just as close.
What a difference. A worthless trip by Kamala.
and falls flat on her
I don’t think it matters when she goes to the border as she will be a disaster regardless of the time of day and place.
Trump will nail these idiots for the disaster it has become.
I lived in Imperial Beach, CA from 1980-’82. Next town? Tijuana, Baby!
I was right on the beach - there were people swimming for it from Mexico all the time, right in front of my house.
They had signs calling her Que Mala (what bad in Spanish)
Trump should ignore Harris and not show up at all. Is a round of golf not more important to him?
>>>Trump should ignore Harris and not show up at all. Is a round of golf not more important to him?<<<
Except that when “our” president says he is going to do something . . . he does it.
Well, they're certainly not tighters.
Trump should have flown to the real border. Could be epic.

Please stop Cackling
Interesting how the Real elected President made the fake VP give the impression she was doing her job.
It is like Biden gives an order, and everyone looks to Trump to see if they should.
I can’t wait to see Babylon Bee tomorrow...
>>Sorry, but El Paso is directly on the border which divides El Paso and Juarez.<<
Que’mala’s visit is 10 miles from the border.
