Democrat Mazie Hirono Blocks Bernie Moreno Common Sense Border Security Bill
Breitbart ^ | 03/11/2025 | Hannah Knudsen

Posted on 03/11/2025 11:04:14 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Democrat Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-HI) this week blocked a border reform bill introduced by freshman Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-OH), despite his plea to Democrats to unite on something so common sense.

“I know that my Democrat colleagues are in a mode where they want to fight everything that we’re doing, Mr. President, but we should at least come together on this,” Moreno said on the floor.

“As I look over at my democratic colleague, there’s only two of us — two of us as entire chamber — that are naturalized U.S. citizens,” he said of himself and Hirono. “We know first and what it means to be able to be accepted by this country. Ninety-eight were born here. Two of us were not. We became citizens of this country, and we got the ultimate opportunity to represent this country in the United States Senate.”

How about we just enforce the border law we had in place before Soetero and Bidet. We don’t need new law.

Some stud who loves little old Japanese women must have made an “unwanted sexual advance” towards her. Most of us call that giving somebody “the bird.”

“Mazie = extra stuck on stupid.”
That’s why the few Americans in Hawaii, call
her “Crazy Mazie”.
Most people in Hawaii are Democrats, not Americans.

“I know that my Democrat colleagues are in a mode where they want to fight everything that we’re doing, Mr. President, but we should at least come together on this,” Moreno said on the floor.

Moreno has the answer to his own question within the question. Democrats must oppose everything that republicans propose or do. If they don't, there would be no reason for their political party to exist. Even if it's good for the country, democrats must oppose Party before country; party before the people. If republicans came up with a bill that would guarantee a cure for cancer, democrats would have to oppose it, because they didn't come up with the idea first and party cohesiveness is more important.

How does one single Congresswoman in particular block a bill?

“We don’t need new law.”

Exactly. That was always Biden’s excuse — “My hands are tied; we need a new law.”

Then Trump put the potato in his place with his famous retort: “All we really needed was a new president.”

What exactly was Hirono’s father’s role and a Japanese soldier , and ‘veterinarian’ in WW2? Her entire immigration and origin narrative is very shaky and never closely looked into. It’s time....

“How about we just enforce the border law we had in place before Soetero and Bidet. We don’t need new law.”

President Reagan agreed to a one time amnesty and a new border security law. The problem is not the law the problem is enforcement.

Dems have hard time connecting to voters because they know so much: says Hirono

By Louis Casiano Fox News
Published December 5, 2018

Mazie Hirono says Dems know so much; appeal to the mind
Sen. Mazie Hirono told a conference that she heard one of the reasons that her party has a difficult time connecting with voters is because Democrats know so much, and have a tendency of appealing to voters’ minds instead of their hearts.
Sen. Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii, on Tuesday told a conference that she heard one of the reasons that her party has a difficult time connecting with voters is because Democrats know so much, and have a tendency of appealing to voters’ minds instead of their hearts.

Hirono made the comment at a conference in Washington, D.C. She was asked by the moderator about ways Democrats could drive voter turnout.
“I wish I had the answer to that because one of the things that we, Democrats, have a really hard time is connecting to people’s hearts instead of [their heads],” Hirono said. “We’re really good at shoving out all the information that touch people here [pointing to her head] but not here [pointing to her heart].”

Hirono, 71, said Democrats need to stop speaking in a way that comes off as manipulative or strokes fear and resentment.
“But we have a really hard time doing that and one of the reasons— it was told to me at one of our retreats— was that we Democrats know so much, that is true. And we have kind of have to tell everyone how smart we are and so we have a tendency to be very left brain,” she continued.

The left-hand side of the brain is often associated with analytical thought.

The first-term senator gained widespread notoriety as a leading Democratic voice for the women who accused against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct. She urged men to “shut up and step up” when the Senate was confirming Kavanaugh to the court.

For one, there *are* some nasty holes in the law that illegals can use.

Democrats would rather rule a miserable people in decline than be bystanders in a happy and prosperous nation.

LOL! We’re lucky Joe Pedo didn’t think to use the Navy subs to give them rides to Hawaii so they could find their “Better life”. LOL!
