On Friday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Jose Diaz-Balart Reports,” Rep. Veronica Escobar (D-TX) argued that “with the exception of family separation, virtually all Trump border policies are still in place today.” And things on the border have gotten worse because of Republican policies.
Escobar stated, “Republicans continue to complain that they want Trump policies reinstated. The fact of the matter is, Jose, with the exception of family separation, virtually all Trump border policies are still in place today. And not only are we not seeing a slowdown in migration, not only are we [not] seeing things — a more orderly process at the border, but we’re actually seeing the opposite. Why is that? Well, I have talked to my community at great length. I published an op-ed in this past Sunday’s El Paso Times, saying that really what we are seeing at the border is a result of Republican strategy, which is, for the last few decades, Republicans want to address immigration only at the border. They refuse to open up legal pathways. They refuse to do their job and legislate around immigration. In fact, Jose, as you and I have talked about, the last time Congress acted on immigration was almost 30 years ago. And 30 years ago, what happened was Congress passed and then-President Clinton signed, limiting legal pathways. So, we have gone in the opposite direction. We’ve gone in the Republican direction, limiting legal pathways and border-only policies. That is a failure. And that’s why we’re seeing what we’re seeing today at the border.”

And the lies just keep on coming…
Right… we’re stupid and believe everything DemocRATS tell us. /sarc
Oh, is that right, Ms. "Pablo?" Is Remain in Mexico still enforced? Is the border wall completed? Is Mexico still defending their own southern border from Central American invaders due to U.S. pressure?
You can have all the policies and laws you can draw up but unless they are enforced, they’re meaningless.
(Remember the Mobs that came to the border with Biden Tshirts on?)
Will any GOP person call out this liar in public?Call press conferences like RATs do and call out this liar.
Absolute fr’kn LIARS.... WAKE UP AMERICA - LET’S GET A PRESIDENT BACK IN WHO CARES ABOUT THIS COUNTRY!!
Oh wait...
“Rep. Veronica Escobar (D-TX) argued that “with the exception of family separation, virtually all Trump border policies are still in place today.”
Just another democRAT lying sack of human debris.
Maybe she should speak with border patrol.
They lie to everybody and they are (rightfully) expecting MSM to cover the lies for them.
This demented person probably actually believes her bizarre rant. The only hope is that, if polls are accurate, Hispanics are beginning to abandon the anti American Marxist Democrat Party in large significant numbers.

I think she means the false families being separated.
Mexican politicians PO’d because everyone south of the border isn’t allowed to jump on the gringo’s free stuff wagon for a free ride. They developed their countries into being third world crap holes and now they all want out of those sewers.
Rather have it bad under Trump, than great under communism (Biden).
Lying sacks of doggie hoofah, every single one of them.
“Family separation“ is a euphemism for child trafficking. The regime does not confirm that the kids belong to the people transporting them.
Sorry amigo. Most of those Trump border policies were also the Kenyan’s border policies. Do your homework, idiot.
Revoke work permits for everyone without a green card and stop giving them to everyone coming across the border. Stop the invasion by removing the lure of jobs!!! That and e-Verify of all existing employees will turn this around fast.
