Tuberville on migrants: ‘Most of them are garbage’
The Hill ^ | 07/24/2024 | RAFAEL BERNAL

Posted on 07/24/2024 10:53:27 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.) said Tuesday that most recent immigrants who have come across the U.S.-Mexico border are “garbage.”

Speaking to Larry Kudlow on Fox Business’s “Kudlow,” Tuberville segued from criticism of Vice President Harris as a presidential candidate to his views on immigration.

“I mean, how can you put somebody in charge of a situation where you let 15, possibly even 20 million people come into our country? Now some of these people are good, but most of them are garbage. They come from jails and prisons in other countries,” he said.

Tuberville repeated a series of false or misleading claims that have become Republican talking points, including the number of migrants who’ve come to the United States, Harris’s role in border management and the idea that Latin American countries are purposefully sending criminals to the border.

Our words are put through a microscope and fed into the media machine.

How does the writer know these are false and misleading claims? Isn’t his article misleading?

“Tuberville repeated a series of false or misleading claims”

Nope. No bias there.

He’s nicer than I am. I don’t care if there are “good people.” They are ALL criminal garbage. They are NOT good people. They are ILLEGALLY HERE, breaking our laws, and destroying this nation. “garbage” is too kind.

Sure you’re not suppose to say it but I bet a lot of poor blacks in Chicago and New York (and other sanctuary s holes) think the same too.

That’s a true statement.

It May be a true statement but why do we insist on loading our enemy’s guns for them? True or not, does everything that passes through our minds have to be said?

If one is well trained in the bigotries of Leftism one will see bigotry in his statement.

But as I am not a Leftist bigot, I don’t see it.

If we were recruiting for a major league sports team and a whole bunch of high schoolers who did not play the sport well signed up for consideration so that there were very few qualified players, one might say something similar. That there are some good prospects on the list but the rest are garbage.

Its a cold fact of reality that there are many people who would not make good American citizens who never-the-less are illegally coming here. Just as there are many who would not make great baseball players or singers.

100%...Not to mention most of those coming in via legal chain immigration policies, are no better...

Anyone who sneaks across our border like a thief in the night, climbing the fence, evading the Border Patrol, KNOWS they are violating our laws. They know they’re illegal every day that they remain here. No, they are not “good” or “nice.” They all need to go, whether they commit more crimes after arriving here or not.

Illegals to stupid or a criminal to enter the legal way no excuse to allow them in.

Democrats using Stalin/Lenin/Hitler logic destroy the country to rebuild it their way.

Anyone who votes for them is aiding and abetting the problem.

To say “some of these people are good” ignores the breach of law that is illegal entry, which a good person would never do.
