At the beginning of Senator Katie Britt's message to the press, she states "I want to thank Senator Hagerty for getting all of us together and also want to encourage everyone who hasn't read his op-ed to do so it clearly lays out what President Biden's intentions are and it is not to secure the Border it is to rather further continued migration.... So, Here is Senators Hagerty's op-ed in the Wa-Times "Breaking down Biden’s plan to address border crisis. White House is masking illegal immigration instead of stopping it." Its not that long and I think everyone should at least read the beginning, middle, and conclusion.

If anyone “knows their why”, it is the Biden administration, who wants to flood Texas with illegals for the purpose of turning Texas blue. Once that occurs, there will be no chance for a Republican victory in any national election. It will be mathematically impossible. I just explained what they want to do in 4 sentences versus 200.

The truth is, the government is intentionally trying to create civil chaos and financial ruin for its citizens.

They always assume that they are going to come out on top in the coming chaos. But what if they don’t? There is plenty of anger at the left for what they have done to our nation.

NO....Not ENOUGH ANGER at the LEFT, yet!!

I agree that the agenda is a "multi-faceted" assault on America using many different "battle fronts". The first being create a worldwide pandemic crisis and point blame to a foreign country. 2nd create many new "pandemic voting laws" and steal the 2020 election (does anyone really believe that Brandon would be in the Whitehouse if Covid never happened?). 3rd open the southern border creating another crisis. 4th cause an inflation crisis. 5th cause a drug and homelessness crisis. 6th get us into a proxy war with Russia. 7th continue to bankrupt America (Nat'l debt now $33T). And the hits just keep on comin.
There has to be an ultimate goal here. I think its to sell the country out to be a subservient government to a central world government and keep all of the crooked evil politicians and their families rich and protected.

Mods removed my link to Bill Hagertys op-ed. Cant understand why. Please, someone tell me. Here it is again: Link here:
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2023/may/4/breaking-down-bidens-plan-to-address-border-crisis/ What is border security?
This seems a simple question. But on Sunday, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas described border security as “maximizing the resources that we have available to us to deliver the most effective results.”
This opaque word salad conceals a more troubling reality: The Biden administration would rather change the meaning of border security than actually secure the border.
Immediately upon taking office, President Biden dismantled most of the commonsense border security measures put in place by the previous administration. These actions included halting construction of the border wall, eliminating “Migrant Protection Protocols,” lifting prohibitions on sanctuary cities, proposing legislation granting U.S. citizenship en masse to illegal immigrants, removing enforcement and removal tools from law enforcement agents, disregarding requirements for detaining and removing criminal illegal immigrants in the United States, and dramatically cutting deportation of illegal aliens.
Unsurprisingly, the number of illegal border crossings exploded. In January 2021, DHS encounters with illegal aliens were roughly 70,000 per month. By April 2021, the number of encounters had more than doubled to 178,795, and by summer 2021, encounters exceeded 200,000 per month. Fiscal 2021 set an all-time record for illegal border crossings, but this was shattered in fiscal 2022, when there were over 2.3 million encounters at the southwestern border alone.
Despite accounts of a collapsed southern border and a rapidly worsening crisis, the president and Mr. Mayorkas insisted that there was no crisis for the first two years of the Biden administration.
But after the 2022 midterm elections, and, of course, as the 2024 presidential election came into view, the White House realized that the strategy of denial was politically untenable, so it shifted. Mr. Biden had to at least create the appearance that his administration was addressing the border crisis, even if only by legerdemain.
Let’s start with December’s government funding bill, in which Democrats included $1.9 billion for border management. On the surface, this seems like a meaningful step toward securing the border, yet behind the smoke screen, DHS was explicitly prohibited from using this money for border security. Instead, these funds must be spent on resettling migrants across the country. They’re building border welcome centers, not border walls.
That was quickly followed by Mr. Mayorkas’ legally questionable plan to create new pathways for “lawful” migration. By expanding and abusing authorities such as temporary protected status, he greenlighted “legal” entry of tens of thousands of illegal aliens from select countries every month, so long as they use the CBP One Mobile App to schedule the border crossing with Customs and Border Protection.
In Mr. Biden’s America, there’s even an app for illegal immigration.
To put it plainly, the Biden administration isn’t trying to stop illegal immigration; it’s trying to mask it and artificially reduce illegal immigration statistics by circumventing the legislative branch and legalizing illegal immigration.
The president’s fiscal 2024 budget proposal doubles down on this approach by including a new $4.7 billion slush fund for “border management” — again funding welcome centers over border security. Border management in Mr. Biden’s America amounts to the installation of turnstiles and green lights at our southern border.
On top of that, last week, the Biden administration announced new U.S. immigration welcome centers in Guatemala and Colombia for use in processing and shuttling migrants to the United States. This will conveniently avoid the embarrassing photos of migrants at our border.
The administration’s border management plan is a shell game. Border crossing numbers will artificially decline — and the Biden administration will claim success in addressing the crisis — because there’s no need to cross the Rio Grande anymore when there’s an illegal immigration app and welcome center in your own country.
Driving down illegal migration with the flick of a pen by converting illegal aliens to legal ones will allow the administration to feign progress for those Americans who still believe in national sovereignty and security without alienating the far-left believers in open borders and unfettered illegal immigration. Given this goal, Mr. Mayorkas’ redefinition of border security as “deliver[ing] the most effective results” is even more frightening.

I wasted my time watching that video by Senator Katie Britt telling about the numbers who have jumped our Southern border. What she failed to do--as all of them fail--is say that this is a DemonKKKrat strategy. The Dems want to register them for the vote and bribe them to vote DemonKKKrat with their $trillion handouts. And . . . .
None dare call it treason.

Kinda funny that 30 years ago when I was trying to get this information out to people nobody was listening and they all said I was crazy.
Now it's common knowledge. I wish I could have all those people in front of Me now so I could listen to them say: "Well it sure was true what you were trying to tell Us."

Not sure why, but maybe because the Washington Times needs to be excerpted? Just a guess.

...it is the Biden administration, who wants to flood Texas with illegals for the purpose of turning Texas blue. Once that occurs, there will be no chance for a Republican victory in any national election. So, Texas must build the rest of the WALL regardless of federal interference. And have NG units and volunteer militiamen with shoot to kill orders patrolling until it is completed.
