The White House continues to be nonchalant about the broken southern border, where 8 million illegal immigrants from around the world have invaded America since President Biden took office. An invasion that includes sex offenders, suspected terrorists, and more than 9700 Chinese nationals encountered in the San Diego Sector alone — nearly all military-age single males.
Republicans on Capitol Hill appear to have finally grown a spine to address the historic crisis — more illegal immigrants are crossing into the U.S. today than at any time in our nation’s history — by tying border security to funding for the Ukraine-Russia conflict.
Time will tell if this is just another GOP feign so the party can later claim they tried to stop Democrats from permanently altering voter demographics in America. Meanwhile, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was quick to attack Republicans — a $110.5 billion funding bill was rejected in the Senate when Republicans demanded the inclusion of provisions to address the immigration process.
“It’s stunning that we have gotten to this point,” Jean-Pierre said. “And that Republicans in Congress are willing to give [Russian President Vladimir] Putin a gift — the greatest gift Putin could hope for. That’s what we are seeing. And so they are playing chicken with our national security. That’s what we are seeing here, and history will remember them harshly.”

Keep in mind, 8 million foreign nationals in 3 years is NOT “stunning” to KJP as she dangles Russia as a carrot on a stick.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) said in a tweet Thursday: “Senate Republicans have been crystal clear: national security starts with border security. The sooner Democrats realize this, the sooner we can deliver on urgent national security priorities.”
Back in November, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) made it clear that border security would be tied to future Ukraine funding.
“The American people feel very strongly about this, and I do as well. We have things that we can and should do around the world, but we have to take care of our own house first,” Johnson said.
“As long as the border is wide open, we’re opening ourselves up for great threats,” he added. “And again, it’s just a matter of principle that if we’re going to take care of a border in Ukraine, we need to take care of America’s as well.”
With the terror threat level at an unprecedented high following the barbaric attack on Israel by the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas, FBI Director Christopher Wray testified Tuesday that he is seeing “blinking red lights everywhere.”
Former CIA analyst Sarah Adams, who now works for the Defense Department, confirmed in a recent appearance on the Shawn Ryan Show podcast that terrorists have “already started” entering the U.S. through the open southern border.
“I know that because I was told several different times about group pockets of terrorists, so like six [to] eight — there was one larger one, maybe 25 to 50. I think it was 50 — that procured passports from the Afghan government with the sole purpose of coming to our southern border. One was ISIS, it was only a group of eight,” she explained.
Yet, Jean-Pierre accused Republicans of “playing chicken with our national security.”
“If they don’t get 100 percent of their extreme demands, they’ll block critical border funding and — and kneecap Ukraine on the battlefield, damaging our national security,” she said at Wednesday’s daily briefing. “As the President said, the world is watching and history will judge Republicans for what they do at this moment.”
Meanwhile, the invaders are openly expressing their love for Joe Biden.
Here’s a quick sampling of responses to the story, as seen on Twitter:
The question should be: “Why are they so intent on giving billions of dollars to people who have nothing to do with our national security and are so unwilling to maintain our border to preserve our sovereign nation?”

It is absurd, it is crazy that this government wants to prioritize aid to Ukraine and leave the border open, that is called treason.

What 75% of the American people will harshly remember is the denial by the administration that there isn’t a problem.
Including yourself @PressSec @SecMayorkas @VP & @POTUS for playing political games with the America Citizens. @GOP
