Vice President Kamala Harris accused Texas Governor Greg Abbott of 'flame throwing' on Sunday after the Republican official directed state law enforcement officers to round up migrants and send them to federal border crossings.

Abbott signed an executive order on Thursday allowing the Texas National Guard and Texas Department of Public Safety to arrest undocumented migrants and return them to the border.

In an interview with CBS News' Face The Nation, Harris was asked what the Biden administration planned to do about Abbott's plan and his laying blame on the White House for the record surge in asylum seekers at the southwest border - which Abbott labeled an 'invasion.'

'I would suggest that so-called leaders focus on solutions instead of attacks if they really are concerned about a problem, and that includes on the issue of immigration,' Harris responded.

In a direct jab at Donald Trump, she said the previous presidential administration created 'a badly broken' immigration system.

Meanwhile, Harris herself has done little in recent months that comes under her purview of the Biden administration's 'border czar.'

The vice president maintained that solutions to the immigration crisis would include 'passing a pathway for citizenship,' a long-held goal for Democrats

'So that we can have a humane and appropriate approach to this issue, including of course, what we will continue to do in terms of prioritizing border security, but understanding we also need to create a pathway,' Harris said on Sunday.

Classic Democrat Party: An upside down and backwards alternate reality.

[nomifyle]

That is a solution.

[Wuli]

It is the so called “Vice President” who should focus on solutions, not attacking those actually trying to implement solutions needed due to the Biden aministration’s failures???

[twister881]

Ignorant, arrogant, and incompetent — Kameltoe is the acme of douchebaggery.

[Spok]

I would like to ask the ditzy Kamala exactly what is the solution to Biden?

[Boomer]

Biden and Harris should be thrown in prison for not doing the one job they are there to do even if they are illegitimate. Protect the damn border. Do not let illegals into this country and if they do come in illegally; make sure they can never be a US citizen.

Close the damn anchor baby loophole too.

All illegals must go home. Full stop. No negotiation. Period.

[gundog]

Who appointed her to say how the border crisis should be resolved? Oh, wait....

[Lurkinanloomin]

The immigration system was broken on purpose.

Except for Trump it was completely bipartisan.

No one is getting deported, Texas is turning them over to the feds, who release them in the US.

[angry elephant]

Kameltoe is supposed to be in charge of fixing the border. She was assigned that task and has not even visited the border.

[Lurkinanloomin]

Amnesty is the only solution to Bush League Republicans, too.

Cornyn, Tillis, Grahamnesty, Hoeven and Rubio are working on it right now.

[Made In The USA]

This isn’t a complex issue, even our whore VP should be able to understand it. I’ll help this dimwitted person:

1. We are being invaded

2. Our Federal government is ignoring it

3. Pople who shouldn’t be here should be sent back

4. Texas is finally starting to what feckless ‘Border Czar’ and her dementia riddled boss are failing to do

Got it?!

"Classic Democrat Party: An upside down and backwards alternate reality."

Exactly. So much of what the Dems/MSM claim these days is not just an exaggeration or a bias. but a complete inversion of reality. Just one example of many: what they call "misgendering" is referring to someone by their real gender.

Or: When Trump on one occasion used two hands to pick up an over-filled glass of water, they said this was proof he was in mental/physical decline and began talking about the 25th Amendment. Meanwhile, they backed an obviously declining Joe Biden who - 18 months into his presidency - can barely utter a single paragraph without two or three stumbles, forgets the names of people, sometimes forgets where he is, and often needs to be guided through the simplest of activities.

[Lurkinanloomin]

If Obama, I mean Senile Joe, had his way they would be able to hand them citizenship cards as they are processed in at the border.

[DPMD]

Never bright is slow to note the cognitive dissonance in condemning Texas for defying the WH, while supporting American “sanctuary cities” doing the same. Mirror images.

[Lurkinanloomin]

Texas is gathering them up and turning them over to the feds for distribution around the US.

[Mr. Jeeves]

...but understanding we also need to create a pathway...

...to the ballot box?

[ConservativeInPA]

This is what happens when RINOs do something half-assed. Delivering wetbacks to the feds so the wetbacks can be shipped to all parts of the country is a waste of taxpayer dollars and does not solve the problem. Actually, I think it is criminal. It makes the state of Texas and taxpayers of Texas active participants in cartel human smuggling operations. Texans should be completely pissed off a demand the criminal use of their tax dollars to end.

The other consequence of RINO decisions is they are attacked by the left, KamelToe in this instance. So Abbott is being attacked by the right and left. Obviously, Abbott is a complete mental midget and could not predict that he would be attacked by the right and left. Part of that is arrogance and contempt for everyday hardworking Texans. Abbott thinks you are mental midgets too. You ain’t smart enough to understand what’s really occurring.

[Cobra64]

He should get in her face and say, “Rule of law, your moron. You and your party are a disgrace to this country and the Constitution you swore to defend.”

Who is going to pay for all the illegal immigrants? Transportation, food, clothing, medical, education, courts, jails, drug problems, etc. The Democrats assume the taxpayers will.
