Kari Lake, a former journalist now running for the Republican Party’s nomination to be the next Governor of Arizona, has promised to complete unfinished portions of border wall in her state, even if it means building on federal lands in defiance of Joe Biden.
Lake made the remarks during an appearance on Tim Pool’s podcast, and later uploaded an excerpt to her Twitter account. “Is Joe Biden going to send officials in to arrest a sitting Governor,” wrote Lake. “Try me.”
“Now we’re seeing a crisis,” Lake said in the interview. “First of all, we need to sue the federal government for failing to protect us, and while that lawsuit is working its way through the system, let’s go down and start building the wall,” she explained. “We have many, many miles of Arizona state land we can be building it on, and let’s finish these little gaps.”
“They’re coming through a funnel where there’s a gap in the President’s wall,” said Lake, “And it is on federal land, but let’s build the wall anyway, what’s Joe Biden going to do? Arrest a sitting governor? I mean honestly.”
Pool asked if Lake thought Biden would, and Pool’s cohost suggested that it was possible. Lake said she would welcome such a development if elected.
“I would welcome that challenge, because he’s failing at his duty,” said Lake. “The federal government is failing us in Arizona.”

GET IT GIRL!
Threatens? Misleading headline?
Did you watch the video? Misleading comment?
Challenges is more appropriate
Probably should be . . . “Dares Biden to arrest her.”
I want states to rebel against the Feds. The country is out of control, and states need to say “no more”.
Illegal Alien COVID Screening Must Not Be ‘Different Issue’!
Townhall.com ^ | December 4, 2021 | Matthew Tragessor
This week, White House COVID-19 response leader Dr. Anthony Fauci could not answer why the Omicron variant screening process for individuals arriving lawfully to the United States is different than the process for those arriving unlawfully at the southern border. Fauci claimed it was a “different issue.” Why he views these two groups differently is unclear, but what is clear is that COVID remains rampant at the southern border with virtually non-existent mitigation protocols in place. Should Dr. Fauci and the Biden administration want to protect the public health interests of Americans (as the administration has recently stated) they must also consider revamping its southern border COVID protocols and treat all foreign nationals—whether arriving lawfully or unlawfully—as one.
President Biden and his administration have shown that travel bans can be effective in mitigating the spread of COVID-19. Besides the latest African travel ban, the Biden administration placed prior travel bans on most European countries, Brazil, China, India, Iran, and South Africa due to concerns over the disease.
And so, if it can bar people from entering the country legally due to public health concerns, barring those who enter our southern border unlawfully should be a no-brainer— especially if they are coming from high risk countries and arriving in high risk circumstances. This concept can be accomplished by maintaining the Migrant Protection Protocol (MPP) program, or issuing memorandums that do not allow for the wholesale release of illegal aliens into the country.
Clamping down on illegal entries would protect the interests of Americans but also migrants as they would not jeopardize their time, money, and well-being from taking the dangerous trek to the U.S.-Mexico border.
By calling illegal alien COVID screening at the southern border a “different issue,” Dr. Fauci minimized the significance of the disease threat in the region. Data and testimony reveal that COVID remains a serious concern among illegal aliens at the U.S.-Mexico border and they cannot be treated differently than those arriving lawfully to our country. Should Dr. Fauci and the Biden administration seek to protect the health and well-being of American citizens amid this global pandemic, they must look to revamp its southern border public health protocols and acknowledge that the disease does not discriminate.

Yes. Law is what it is proclaimed to be on any given day by the Brandon Tyranny
She is only speaking truth and logic. I love it, we need more like her.
AMEN!
Time to renounce citizenship and identify as a “migrant”?
that’s an idea. legally, declare it to be a COVID emergency, surround the gaps by AZ state troopers, and start construction.
Definitely
I love her words.
I just hope she is sincere.
Thatta girl.
She’s the type way say we want, then people shoot arrows into her. The smears from Cindy McCain’s bunch and the Arizona Republic newspaper will be off the charts.
The same can be said for every single person that has ever run for office, especially the newbies. Unless it’s someone that has a clear record of underperforming or lying, you’re basically taking a chance with a pig in a poke.
she spoke bad of McCain.
Cindy will be all over the MSM trashing her.
