Nadler rips GOP reps over debunked story on homeless veterans
The Hill ^ | 05/23/2023 | JULIA MUELLER

Posted on 05/23/2023 1:27:03 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.) on Tuesday ripped his Republican colleagues for sharing a debunked story about homeless veterans being booted from hotel rooms to make space for migrants, during a House Judiciary hearing on the U.S.-Mexico border.

“Unfortunately, my colleagues are not ones to let facts get in the way of a good story,” Nadler said during the hearing, highlighting a false story that was featured by outlets including the New York Post and Fox News. “This was quickly echoed by the Speaker of the House and other congressional Republicans and even by one of our witnesses.”

So the whole “Veterans being kicked out of hotel to make room for immigrants” was made up and never fact checked.

I’ve read a couple of Hill articles like that lately. The Hill needs to change its name to Gone Down Hill. They’re as bad as the Huffington Post, Vox, Axios and “da Bidness Insider”.

Well, I think the hotel was housing all kinds of homeless people, so there probably were some vets in the mix. It just wasn’t something set up specifically for “homeless veteran housing” though.

so illegals coming into the country is not true?

illegals being shipped all over the country is not true?

taxpayers paying for the distribution of illegals is not true?

they, the illegals, are coming into this country... they have to live somewhere... where they live is now not available for the homeless veterans, so STFU naddles.

“Unfortunately, my colleagues are not ones to let facts get in the way of a good story,” Nadler said.

Oh...like the border patrol on horse back whipping illegals with their horse reins? FJN

Why Nadler the penguin wasn’t voted out in the primaries is beyond me.

Republicans never control the messaging on issues. They are too limp wristed to do so. There are so many consequences to illegal immigration, but Republicans can't be united in their message. Pick three or four talking points so the slow people can understand. I'd start with the fact that these scumbag wetbacks are paying thousands of dollars to cartels to illegally immigrate, The cartels in turn use wetbacks to transports drugs that are killing over 100,000 Americans per year. These POS wetbacks are giving material aid and support to transnational terrorist organizations.

Take the eff'n gloves off. Democrats certainly have no problem doing that. But pussy Republicans, and many on FR, think wetbacks are so nice and just coming to the U.S. for freedom. That's complete BS. They are breaking the law the moment they cross the border, regardless what the government calls it.

Hold the target still
Attack, ridicule, and abuse
Tie it to your political enemy.

The truth of this story means little.

There should be NO story here.

I voted for a WALL in 2016.

Trump was ready and willing to get one built.

BUT the GOPe not the Democrats KILLED any chances of a real wall.

Trump had not even settled in the White House in 2017 when McConnell speaking for the GOPe leadership in both houses which they had a majority, declared the wall was dead on arrival.

Wake up.

There is a ONE party line in America. at least on the issue of whether a country has borders or not.

McConnell and Ryan sold this country out.

Anybody here, have a different view?

There is no greater proponent of open borders than the Evil Media Empire of Rupert Murdoch.

We need a wall more than ever and the CLOWNS in the Uniparty are arguing about whether the ILLEGAL INVADERS got first dibs over homeless veterans.

The ILLEGAL INVADERS got no business in this country in the first place.

If there were REALLY two parties in mighty opposition, they would be arguing about the national security issue caused by open borders, not some mythical national security issue caused by some stupid war half way around the world between a Russian gangster and a Ukrainian gangster.
