The Morning Briefing: A Most Perfect Comparison of Dem/Rep Differences Regarding the Border
PJ Media ^ | 29 Sep 2023 | Stephen Kruiser

The real reason is that Republicans and Democrats can’t find any common ground when dealing with issues pertaining to our southern border is that there has never been any agreement between the two parties about what’s actually happening down there. It’s as if they’re discussing two different borders on two different continents.

As we wrap up this week, we’ve been provided with a perfect example of this divide courtesy of two female members of Congress: Massachusetts Democratic Rep. Ayanna Pressley and Sen. Katie Britt, a Republican from Alabama.

Rick covered the story about Squad stalwart Pressley:

For example, during a CNN interview with Jake Tapper, the Massachusetts Democrat was asked about the looming government shutdown and funding border security during the crisis. Tapper pointed out that Republican governors sent a few buses to northern cities, and Pressley responded that she disagreed with using people as “political pawns.”

That’s when the rocket blasted off and sent her speeding toward Mars.

“No doubt about it, our border is secure, and we are in the midst of a humanitarian crisis,” she said.

“there has never been any agreement between the two parties about what’s actually happening down there”

Dis-agreement about what’s “actually happening” is simply semantics for One wants one thing and One wants another.

Dem-Rats want dependent voters and Goobermint Largesse to pay for it all, and RINO-Pubes want exploitable peasants as workers & renters.

Both sides are getting what they want- and that’s why the Grift Goes On.

There are folks on both sides who want the children trafficked in for the sex trade. After all, the US is the biggest sex trafficker in the world.

Well said. I see no solution. I think in Field of Dreams the Kevin Costner character heard a voice saying, “If you build it, they will come.” The Dems tweaked that to “If we don’t build it, they will come and come and come ....”

Pressley isn’t technically lying. A “secure” border (or perimeter) is one which prohibits unwanted entry. The rats want the illegals to cross, therefore it’s secure in their little pea brains.

We REALLY need to take our language back from the left.
