We have the worst border crisis in history, and the Biden administration insists that our southern border is secure. This disconnect between the narrative and reality is the reason why Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is currently facing potential impeachment.
Yet, after watching his interview with CNN’s Chris Wallace, it all makes sense.
“Our goal is to achieve operational control of the border, to do everything that we can to support our personnel with the resources, the technology, the policies that really advance the security of the border, and do not come at the cost of the values of our country, ” Mayorkas told Wallace. “The law needs to be changed if it does not either meet our highest ideals or actually proves to be functional in the service of those ideals.”
Mayorkas remains defiant in the face of Republican efforts to oust him, but when Wallace pressed him on his insistence that the border is secure, he gave a very telling answer.
“What does ‘secure’ mean to you?” Wallace asked.
“There is not a common definition of that,” Mayorkas claimed.
“If one looks at [Congress’s 2006] statutory definition, the literal interpretation of the statutory language, if one person successfully evades law enforcement at the border, then we have breached the security of the border,” he continued. “Our goal is to achieve operational control of the border, to do everything that we can to support our personnel with the resources, the technology, the policies, that really advance the security of the border, and do not come at the cost of the values of our country. I say that because in the prior [Donald Trump] administration, policies were promulgated or passed that did not hew to the values that we hold dear.”

The sheer brass of you, you are not even an American. You stick a foreign flag on your page. You GDSB, you demand American treasure and lives to support some alien scheme to prop up some near third world shit hole. Why are you even allowed on here? No wonder you don’t care that the US is being invaded, all you care about is some slimey foreign manipulation scheme.
First off, I am an American citizen who lived 49 out of 62 years in the United States exclusively. After that, I moved to Israel and made no secret of it. Since you were unable to win an actual debate on the merits, you are now switching to ad hominem. Pathetic and predictable.
“Why are you even allowed on here?”
Take it up with Jim and Chris. When they need you to make FR policy, they’ll call you. I was on this forum for the past 21 years, only thirteen of them while in Israel, an American ally.
“No wonder you don’t care that the US is being invaded...”
As my posting history will attest, I care very much about the US being invaded. Go find some more straws to grasp at. For all of me, this discussion is over. I didn’t ask for it, but it’s over and you’re done.
You are not an American, go away foreigner.
You are not an American. You are an expat trading on the paper privilege of claiming to be an American. I have fought in the Forever Wars you so love. I want no more of them. If you love the shithole your family left so much go back and yes I am trying to get you and your ilk thrown off this forum. I encourage other real Americans here to do the same. No place here for some fakester American who demands American blood and treasure from some foreign country. Go Away.
1. I am opposed to forever wars.
2. Good luck with that. You and Humblegunner are both idiots.
3. I am exercising my right as a real American to live where I want and go where I want.
4. Not going anywhere.
5. I stand on my “you’re both pathetic and predictable” statement. This rant proves it.
Spoken like what you are. A fake pseudo American insulting a real American. Go away stranger.
Oh..if I was only King.
Go away stranger. I am areal American, have served my nation in wars, you are a fake pseudo American that wants to involve America in wars of interest to the foreigners you come from. Go away stras=nger and fake American.
Blahblahblahblah. One-note nut.
Go away fake American. You never served this country. You sit on your fat ass in a foreign country and demand real Americans be taxed and risk their lives for the benefit of the foreigners you spring from. RFeal Americans do not emigrate to foreign countries, real Americans do not act as agents of influence for a foreign state. You are just a stooge manipulating paper documents to enable you to use your pseudo citizenship for your slimy material interest. Go away foreigner.
No.
“You never served this country.”
You mean you go one further than Robert A. Heinlein and believe that anyone who did not serve in the military should not only be denied the vote, but even the right to speak? I did the US armed forces a favor by not enlisting. I would have been a liability even in boot camp, let alone a war. I’d make Beetle Bailey look like a crack troop.
You sit on your fat ass in a foreign country and demand real Americans be taxed and risk their lives for the benefit of the foreigners you spring from.
You’re Pocahontas’ little sister? You spring from foreigners, too, whether they arrived on the Mayflower, or on a slow boat from Poland via France as my grandmother did in 1927. BFD.
RFeal Americans do not emigrate to foreign countries, real Americans do not act as agents of influence for a foreign state.
Real Americans do not pontificate about others’ bona fides.
“I’m an agent of influence for a foreign state”?
Sure. I have an opinion and I express it. How un-American./s
Now you’re getting obsessive. And boring. Take your meds. Call your shrink.
Go away stranger.
Boooga! Boooga! Boooga!
In a word, no.
stay away foreigner.
Yeah, he signed up over 20 years ago just to annoy you today.
