What Would Jesus Do?

When Joseph, Mary, and Jesus escaped into Egypt, did they check in with the border guard?  No right winger will say.

When the Good Samaritan assisted the injured traveler, did he ask his immigration status first?  No Trump Monkey will say.

Biden Inherited Trump's Border Crisis

Some say Biden created an unprecedented crisis at the US southern border. Nonsense. The situation at the border was viewed as a crisis back in April of 2019 by the EXTREMELY right wing Heritage Foundation. Do you suppose they lied?

Apparently even the right wing Heritage Foundation knows the situation at the border is NOT Biden's doing.

Border Surge Is Seasonal and Normal

The surge at the border  "fits a pattern of seasonal changes in undocumented immigration combined with a backlog of demand because of 2020s coronavirus border closure."  -- In other words, it has NOTHING to do with Biden becoming president. (WAPO)

Trump's Wall Breached by Smugglers

According to the  agents on the border, smugglers use a cheap battery powered hand tool to saw through Trump's wall. This is from the Washington Post:

"The breaches have been made using a popular cordless household tool known as a reciprocating saw that retails at hardware stores for as little as $100. When fitted with specialized blades, the saws can slice through one of the barrier’s steel-and-concrete bollards in minutes, according to the agents, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about the barrier-defeating techniques."

"After cutting through the base of a single bollard, smugglers can push the steel out of the way, creating an adult-size gap. Because the bollards are so tall — and are attached only to a panel at the top — their length makes them easier to push aside once they have been cut and are left dangling, according to engineers consulted by The Washington Post."

Jan Brewer should hire the French Foreign Legion to Arizona. She should
order them to shoot to kill, on the spot, anyone - man, woman or child,
crossing the border illegally.

USSC Question on Border "Emergency"

How will Trump's lawyers handle the question when it comes?  Try to imagine RBG asking Trump's lawyers.

''The president declared a national emergency; admitted he didn't really NEED to do anything about it; took off on vacation; spent Saturday night watching TV; never gave the nation an update on the status of what he called a national security emergency; then got up Sunday morning and tweeted NOT about the emergency on the border, but about the way he was treated on SNL. Do you expect this court to believe there really IS an emergency on the border?''

Border Wall - from Sea to Shining Sea

When Johnson claims Trump's wall never was supposed to extend from sea to sea, he's lying. Either that, or he's ignorant.

From the 2016 GOP Platform:  "That  is  why  we  support  building  a  wall  along  our  southern  border  and  protecting  all  ports  of  entry.  The  border  wall  must  cover  the  entirety  of  the  southern  border  and  must  be  sufficient  to  stop  both  vehicular  and  pedestrian  traffic."

Raven and Reagan Call for Open Borders

5359   PM:   Raven   [Quote]     -- 9:51am -- Thu, Jan 17, 19 pst

 . . .  I say open the borders.



_______________________



Saint Ronnie agrees with Raven on this one.



"Rather than making them … we’re talking about putting up a fence. Why don’t we work out some recognition of our mutual problems, make it possible for them to come here legally with a work permit, and then while they’re working and earning here, they pay taxes here? And when they want to go back, they can go back and they can cross. And open the border both ways  . . . " - Ronald Reagan

Rightwingers, Border Wall, and Profanity

I asked the right wingers, ''Where
will you build the wall? On Mexico's side, so THEIR ranchers and
farmers have no access to the river? Or on the US side so US farmers
and ranchers will have no access to the river?''

Some of them called me a ''cocksucker.''

The Border Security Challenge

When the right wingers say our borders aren't secure, I challenge them to put their money where their mouth is.

Meet me in Mexico. Hand me your passport; then try to sneak back into the US.

If you succeed, I'll donate $10,000 to your favorite charity.

If you get caught, YOU donate $10,000 to Planned Parenthood.

So far, not ONE right winger will step up to the challenge.

Reagan Called for Open Borders

Trump claimed: “Even President Ronald Reagan tried for 8 years to build a Border Wall, or Fence, and was unable to do so.”



Now for the truth: 



"Rather than making them … we’re talking about putting up a fence. Why
don’t we work out some recognition of our mutual problems, make it
possible for them to come here legally with a work permit, and then
while they’re working and earning here, they pay taxes here? And when
they want to go back, they can go back and they can cross. And open the
border both ways  . . . " - Ronald Reagan

Mexico Will Pay for the Wall

 . . .  He didn't say Mexico would fork over money to pay for the wall.

“I believe Mexico will pay for the wall. I have a very good relationship with Mexico,” Trump said at a press conference at Camp David on Saturday.

“But yes, in some form, Mexico will pay for the wall.”

Sending Troops to the Border: What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

"In 1997, Esequiel Hernandez Jr., an 18-year-old American student, was killed by a group of United States Marines on a drug surveillance mission in Redford, Tex., while he was herding goats. Mr. Hernandez was the first American civilian to be killed by active-duty military troops since the Kent State massacre in 1970 . . . "
