Angel Mom Patty Morin says Vice President Kamala Harris’s failures at the United States-Mexico border cost her daughter her life. Rachel Morin, a 37-year-old mother of five children, was murdered allegedly by an illegal alien MS-13 gang member. During a town hall this week with CNN’s Anderson Cooper, Harris defended her and President Joe Biden’s record on immigration, where about eight million migrants are estimated to have arrived in the U.S. since early 2021.

It’s already bad enough that illegal aliens are going around raping and murdering our citizens. These tragedies would have been preventable if the Biden administration had instructed federal immigration officers to enforce the law. Instead, it’s been quasi-open borders for three years. Rachel Morin, a mother of five, was murdered last year in Harford County, Maryland. Police recently arrested her alleged killer, an illegal alien. This week, Jocelyn Nungaray, 12, was strangled to death by two illegals from Venezuela. And some of the media coverage has been borderline offensive. The Associated Press has been especially egregious, omitting that Nungaray was...

The Angel Family of Rachel Morin says they are “deeply touched” after former President Donald Trump called them to offer his condolences. Morin was raped and murdered, allegedly by an illegal alien linked to the MS-13 gang who crossed the United States-Mexico border last year. On Thursday, Morin’s mother Patty and the family’s attorney Randolph Rice said Trump had made a phone call to them to offer his condolences for their loss. “I am deeply touched by President Trump’s kindness and concern,” Patty Morin said.

Democrats have started to blame Republicans for the death of Rachel Morin, a Maryland resident raped and murdered allegedly by a migrant here in the United States illegally. “Law enforcement have accused an illegal immigrant of raping and killing a mother of five children named Rachel Morin in Bel Air, Maryland,” Breitbart News reported recently. “The illegal alien from El Salvador, identified as 23-year-old Victor Martinez-Hernandez, was arrested on Friday in Tulsa, Oklahoma.” In the wake of her horrific murder, both Democrats and Republicans seem to be in agreement that the Southern border crisis bears responsibility for Morin’s death, but...

On Tuesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Laura Coates Live,” Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas responded to criticisms that the Biden administration should face blame for the killing of Rachel Morin by stating that “a criminal is responsible for the criminal act. The criminal who committed this heinous act should be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law, and forcefully so. That is my response.” Guest host Jim Acosta asked, “I do want to ask you about the murder of this Maryland mother that has been in the news. It’s gotten a lot of attention. She was killed last year,...

Richard Morin, The Washington Post's polling director, had an interesting piece in yesterday's edition. Morin argues that, in states Bush carried in 2004, his job approval numbers have slid so much that we can no longer really think of many of them as "red".Writes Morin, "States that were once reliably red are turning pink. Some are no longer red but a sort of powder blue. In fact, a solid majority of residents in states that President Bush carried in 2004 now disapprove of the job he is doing as president. Views of the GOP have also soured in those Republican...
