GOP Now Owns ‘Open Border’: Van Jones, Coulter Spar over Border
Breitbart ^ | 02/17/2024 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 02/17/2024 7:20:51 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

On Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” CNN Senior Political Commentator and former Obama Adviser Van Jones and columnist and author Ann Coulter sparred over the failed Senate border bill and the U.S. immigration system.

After host Bill Maher argued that Democrats have turned the immigration issue around on Republicans, Jones said, “Look, it turns out there is a conspiracy to keep the border open, to flood the country with undocumented people, and it’s led by Donald Trump and the Republican Party, because, down there, open border. They had the opportunity to close it.” Later on, Jones stated, “It is now the Republicans’ open border.”

there is a conspiracy to keep the border open, to flood the country with undocumented people, and it’s led by Donald Trump and the Republican Party.

Is there anyone who believes this?

But, given the IQ and lack of knowledge of Biden voters, I don't doubt they believe it.

what complete BS

nothing in that bill would have FORCED Biden to stop the illegal aliens. The executive will ALWAYS have the discretion to execute the laws how they see fit.

Biden doesn’t want to stop the illegal aliens, and thus would always use his discretion to do nothing. So any compromise would have been one-sided.

Remember a portion of the public think a man can cut his weenie off, take hormones and then birth babies.

If one is that stupid one will believe Trump opened up the border if the TV says so.

Do you do anything other than posting negative articles on FR? Interesting. I used to think your mission was educating the rest of FR to the negative attacks that are thrown against conservatives. But now, I think you are just seeing how many clicks you can accumulate in a day, and are trying to set records. Perhaps you like ‘riling’ folks up. I don’t know what your motivations are, but there is a world out there that you should be enjoying. What is your motivation? My aim is not to criticize, but it has forced me to avoid your posts just to not waste time. Good luck in the future! I hope you find some happiness in Chicago.

Qhe feckless left are masters at urging everything g around and blaming the right. The new marching orders to the msm are to parrot “the gop owns the border crisis”, and hey will hammer that asinine lie one nonstop until the nation’s low info folks beleive it despite all,the evidence pointing to the fact that the problem is strictly dud to liberal policies.

You simply will never get truth out of the demon driven left because their father is the father of lies... Satan himself

When a proven Communist tells you what President Trump said or meant by what he said, you can be sure that a proven Communist is trying to obscure all.

Van Jones -- CNN Communist. "Green Jobs" advisor to Obama in 2009.

As noted in a Wiki bio, "He became affiliated with many left activists, and co-founded a socialist collective called Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement (STORM). It protested against police brutality, held study groups on the theories of Karl Marx and Vladimir Lenin, and aspired to a multi-racial socialist utopia."

Promote him alongside anti-Trumpers, and mere entertainment is what this is. "Look, shiny object!" The Lefty rubes all run in lockstep. Conservatives mostly wouldn't have been in the CNN peanut gallery, if it weren't for Breitbart repeating the nonsense.

Amidst his lies, Jones got something right:

“Jones argued that asylum laws are passed by Congress and need a congressional fix.”

[[there is a conspiracy to keep the border open, to flood the country with undocumented people, and it’s led by Donald Trump and the Republican Party.]]

More blatant proof that the left always accuse the right of doing the crap that the left are guilty of- it’s now so open and in our faces that the left can lie with impunity now and the low info voters gobble it up as truth

Except the so-called "Sanctuary Cities" and "Sanctuary States" ignore the ones they want in any event ...

Any social media thread that even tries to post the spin that “The Dems are the champions of border enforcement”, should be swarmed and trolled by any same person. It’s just too easy. It’s like trying to claim that Republicans are broadly the champions of climate change legislation...utterly ridiculous.

The Republicans want mass immigration to provide cheap labor for Republican business owners. to hell with American’s who need jobs.

The Democrats want mass immigration to populate the voter rolls with Democrat voters.

Both parties have betrayed the American people.

Van Jones has the CNN megaphone. Van Jones knows this is a lie. But he will repeat it 100X until everyone believes this.

Both parties play games by blaming the other for inaction. It’s been the game for years. This latest border bill was more of the same fake border protection BS. I read the bill to mean 5000/day are allowed to enter illegally. Two problems I found with it.

Who’s counting? Not someone I trust. Thats for sure.
And, how long before the number got pushed to 10,000, 15,000, and 20,000?

Again the bill was uni-party BS

The reason they hate Trump is because he actually would stop the flow of illegal immigration....which threatens both parties for reasons we can guess at.

Trump is nominally a Republican, but in actuality he’s a populist along the vein of an Abraham Lincoln....leading a group of people who are aggravated that neither party is seriously addressing a major issue.
