‘Open borders’? Hah!

By JOHN KANELIS / johnkanelis_92@hotmail.com

A South Texas congressional Democrat, Filemon Vela of Brownsville, today announced he won’t seek another term in the U.S. House of Representatives.

His seat had become a target for Republicans who see a chance to what had been a staunchly Democratic seat.

What slays me, though, is the reaction, as reported by the Texas Tribune, of the GOP in response to Vela’s unsurprising announcement:

“Filemon Vela knows Biden’s border crisis will cost him his seat and Democrats their House majority,” said House GOP campaign arm spokesperson Torunn Sinclair. “Texans deserve a congressman who is going to stand up to Biden’s open border agenda, not defend it.”

Open border agenda? Is this clown for real?

There is no “open border agenda” being pushed by President Biden. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas this weekend declared the border “is closed.”

Yes, the Biden administration has been caught flat-footed by the influx of undocumented immigrants seeking entry into the United States, particularly the unaccompanied children who have been rounded up and taken to holding centers, such as the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center in Dallas.

But … there is no “open border agenda” being pursued. The GOP campaign flack is spouting demagogic nonsense.

One thought on “‘Open borders’? Hah!”

  1. How is it a closed border when illegals are streaming in by the thousands and being released?

    Biden created this mess by overturning Trump’s policy without something else ready to go. It’s also being funded by someone. Look at the shirts they are wearing.
