J.D. Vance Is Right: Kamala Harris Owns The Border Disaster (thefederalist.com)
"During Tuesday’s vice presidential debate, Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance schooled Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz on who’s actually responsible for America’s ongoing border crisis: Vice President Kamala Harris.
The moment came when CBS “moderator” and Democrat hack Magaret Brennan asked Vance if a Trump-Vance administration would “separate” illegal alien parents from their children who were born in the U.S. as part of a nationwide deportation operation. Rather than grant Brennan’s biased framing, Vance flipped the script by highlighting the disastrous border invasion caused by the Biden-Harris administration’s open border policies.
“Before we talk about deportations, we have to stop the bleeding. We have a historic immigration crisis … Kamala Harris started and said that she wanted to undo all of Donald Trump’s border policies,” Vance said. “I had a mother who struggled with opioid addiction and has gotten clean. I don’t want people who are struggling with addiction to be deprived of their second chance because Kamala Harris let … fentanyl into our communities at record levels.”
The Ohio Republican went on to say that in order to stop the border crisis, the federal government must reimplement Trump’s policies and deportations. He specifically highlighted the importance of deporting violent criminals who have committed additional offenses beyond crossing the border illegally.
Pivoting back to Brennan’s “family separation” question, Vance noted how more than 300,000 migrant children are unaccounted for by the Biden-Harris Department of Homeland Security.
“The real family separation policy in this country is unfortunately Kamala Harris’ wide open southern border,” Vance said.
