Manchin on Border: ‘Democrats Let This Happen’ and Biden Can Declare Emergency
Breitbart ^ | 01/27/2024 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 01/27/2024 5:08:24 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

On Friday’s “CNN News Central,” Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) stated that “the Democrats let” the crisis at the border happen and urged President Joe Biden to declare a national emergency on the border if Congress can’t pass legislation to fix the problem.

Manchin said, “It’s the most dangerous thing we have, is the border security right now and a lapse of border security. So, we can fix that. But when you have former President Trump saying, oh, no, we can’t do that, because let’s just go ahead and blame the Democrats. Well, the Democrats let this happen. But it’s time to fix it. So, we can fix this working together. But not to fix it because of politics, it’s not who we are as a country. It’s not what our purpose in Washington is all about.”

Wanna declare an emergency? Declare an emergency to replace the Executive Branch of Government in the USA.

I can’t understand why more Republican pols and conservative pundits are not pulling up this old clip and using it.

Joetater called for it and he got it and he has done everything in his power to assist it since the day he took office.

This whole crisis was done on purpose.

He can’t declare an emergency. That would be Exhibit A in the Supreme Court case between Texas and Biden. If Texas can enforce its border, that takes away the eastern half, 1254 miles, of the border for the illegals and cartels to exploit.

Exactly.

And no pol or pundit is serious about it if they’re not making that clear.

Treason. Treason. Treason.
