“My people came to me, [Director of National Intelligence] Dan Coats came to me and some others saying they think it’s Russia. I have President Putin, he just said it’s not Russia,” Trump said. “I will say this, I don’t see any reason why it would be.”

This is only growing worse and the fact that we haven’t done anything about it only emboldens bad actors.
Also, McCarthy was on tape admitting he ‘knew for certain’ that Trump and then-Rep. Dana Rorabacher were on the take with Russia. At this point you’re either a deluded, moron who only listens to Fox News, votes republican and doesn’t know what atoms are or how gravity works, or you’re on the left.
I’ve been echoing this giant red flag as much as I can. It’s even worse when you consider there was an unprecedented consensus across all the intelligence and defense agencies on this.
He trusts Putin more than his own advisors. Gross.
You can thank Democrats for INSISTING that Republicans aren’t evil pieces of shit literally incapable of living up to their oaths of office.
If we could treat these traitors like the traitors they are, we’d be in a hell of a lot better of a position as a country.
Give an inch, they take the entire god-damned country.
Yep. Democrats constantly give Republicans more rope hoping they’ll hang themselves… while failing to realize the Republicans are using all of that slack to wrap the rope around our necks.
going easy on republicans is only going to make it worse. make an example of them by throwing the ones calling for a civil war or secession in jail and they’ll stop, just ignore the whining they’ll do because their hurt feelings aren’t worth it
There is no “cRisiS”
it’s fabricated
While everything about Republicans’ messaging about the border is pretty damn racist and overdramatic, there is no doubt that the number of people entering the country at the border has massively increased in a very short period of time, putting a lot of strain on it. I was reading an article yesterday, talking about how the number of Chinese nationals entering at the border has increased 50-fold (tens of thousands of arrests last year). You have sanctuary cities with mayors now saying publicly that they are strained as well. Is it a crisis? Debatable. Is it a problem? Yes.
That being said, if we had done more comprehensive and ethical reform over the last 15 to 20 years we wouldn’t be in this situation. We absolutely made this bed and it is a problem to a certain extent.
I would agree it’s an issue, but not a “cRisiS”. If it were a were crisis (which it’s not), the Republicans would take the concessions offered.
It’s fabricated drama to try and create a wedge issue. Biden called their bluff and Republicans were holding pocket 2’s.
Greg Abbott, truly, is a little piss baby.
You severely underestimate how many people will cut off their nose to spite their face
Well I will say this. While I don’t disagree that we have issues at the border, we have to remember how our political system is currently handling it.
Purposes imperfect but slightly better bill for immigration and border security
No argument here
Republicans are disgusting traitor swine and should be dealt with accordingly.
Every single facet of that border bill was a front in what future historians will recognize as a battle front in World War III.
