Rep. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., claimed in an interview that the border with Mexico is secure, even as she acknowledged that waves of migrants are flowing into the United States.

The state of America’s southern border has become a national news story in recent weeks as record numbers of illegal immigrants cross into the United States. While some Democratic leaders, such as the governor of Massachusetts, are increasingly wary of the crisis, Pressley insisted during a CNN interview on Wednesday that the situation is under control.

CNN host Jake Tapper noted some Republicans' concerns about the lack of additional border security funding in the upcoming bipartisan Senate bill, pressing Pressley about whether "something needs to be done" about the "crisis at the border."

I’d like to hear her define “secure”.

It’s so clogged up with illegals that it would be impossible to invade.

The leftists are closing in on taking Texas down with the illegals. Of course the border is “secure” to them.

In their minds they just say “press the agreed upon talking point. Press the agreed upon talking point.”

Wonder if she wears those glasses to make her cone-head look rounder?

Same as what Clinton’s definition of the word “is” is.

Ok so you let the public vote on whether or not he/she’s lying. Will it change anything? They’ve got 13 months to wait it out and they’ll out ju-jitsu us on Election Day/season. They’re smarter than us and this kinda stuff works for them.

Voters gullibility enters in here. I’m talking the fence sitters who aren’t effected by this statement. Non-msg reporting and subject changing when they’re called on it.

A twisted leftists version of "The Emporers New Border".

Everyone sees there is no border security. The media sees there is no border control. That said, they pretend (Lie), which is more of a national security problem than the border. To have elected and appointed representatives merely lie to you and a press that doesn't hold them accountable, and courts which refuse to uphold the constitution, we're finished as a nation.

Maybe she means it’s difficult to get into Mexico.

What are the chances she lives in a gated community. North Korea’s borders? Now those... are secure.

Texas school kids need to file a class action lawsuit against that boy in the White Hut for destroying their future. If it works in Montana, it should work here.

All they do is lie and sycophants such as Jake Tapper cover for them.

The border is secure, and Ayanna Presley has long beautiful hair.
