“Harris and every elected Democrat owns this historic border crisis that has turned every community into a border community,” said Stefanik (R-NY). “It is time that we return to President Donald Trump’s border security policies that put the safety of American citizens first.”
“Kamala Harris didn’t just create a national security crisis, but a humanitarian crisis that has endangered the lives of millions. House Republicans will secure the border,” she declared.
Mainstream media outlets have been denying that Harris was ever the Biden administration’s “border czar” — before having to awkwardly admit to using the title in past reports and in some cases editing out information about her left-wing stances.
Biden tapped Harris in March 2021 to address the “root causes” of the migrant crisis — but it took her another three months before she took a trip to the US-Mexico border, and since then, at least 8 million migrants have come into the country.
The tallies of migrant encounters by the Border Patrol and the rise in the foreign-born population have broken records since 2021, when Biden and Harris, 59, took office.
Weeks before her trip, the vice president dismissed criticism for not showing up by declaring in a June 2021 interview with NBC News, “We’ve been to the border. So this whole thing about the border, we’ve been to the border.”
“You haven’t been to the border,” NBC anchor Lester Holt pushed back.
“And I haven’t been to Europe,” Harris replied with an awkward laugh. “And I mean, I don’t understand the point that you’re making. I’m not discounting the importance of the border.”
“No rational person could look at the years since and conclude anything except that she was utterly unqualified, and has completely failed,” he said.
“While Democrats and their allies in the media rush to excuse Vice President Harris’ catastrophic failure to end the crisis she and President Biden created,” Green added, “Congress has shown with this resolution that we want the American people to know the truth.”
