Why California’s border is at issue in Ukraine aid standoff
Cal Matters ^ | DECEMBER 13, 2023 | LYNN LA

Posted on 12/13/2023 7:46:13 AM PST by artichokegrower

Democrats in California and elsewhere are divided on the Gaza war. But there’s another bloody war, in Ukraine, and on that, key California members of Congress are also split from the White House.

Sen. Alex Padilla, the state’s first Latino U.S. senator, and Rep. Nanette Barragán, chairperson of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, are warning the Biden administration not to agree to changes to border security to win Republican support for more U.S. military aid for Ukraine.

Hey, we’ve been trying to keep US 395 closed but seem to not be able to just north west of Reno so the border still remains open...........

Governor Gavin Newsom appointed Padilla to the United States Senate after then-Senator Kamala Harris was elected Vice President of the United States;

Alex Padilla hasn’t been elected to sh!t. STFU!

"Wow they are openly promoting their invasion and take over of the country."

Of course they do, they understand with enough illegals in this country there will NEVER be another Conservative government elected to office, enough illegals that they can begin the slow and deliberate destruction of the white race.

one could almost think they are out of the closet communists that seek the overthrow of the usa.

i.e.

AAGAVE’s = domestic enemies= trators

California is already lost at this point and Texas will turn blue in a few more years.

A little thought experiment I quote to people who advocate open borders:

What’s to stop, say, 1M Chinese PLA members from simply dropping anchor in Long Beach Harbor, and then disembarking in civilian clothing?

If we are then to treat them the same as citizens, then they have 2nd Amendment rights to bring their AK-47s with them.

Ta-Da. The invasion is completed without firing a shot, and they will soon be in control.

What that picture shows is that they are doing exactly that only using Mexico as the drop off point. Those guys are at Parade Rest, with their campaign rucksacks in front of them. They are clearly military. When they get to LA or Chicago or wherever, they will end up being armed.

PS, this crap been goin on a long time.

Worked with a Chinese PhD thirty years back and he told me he got roped into Maoist self criticism session in Sacramento. Had been told it was just a “Chinese community” get together, he arrives and the obvious apparatchik leader seats them all in a circle and starts haranguing them.

Seems like the Mexicans and the Chinese are competing for who gets to own Colliphonia.
