Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, let's just step back and understand the Democrats' position for a second. First, they were for a wide-open border. You don't have to take my word for it, just remember what we saw. Every single day for 4 years of the Biden administration, people were lining up on the southern border, camping out under the bridges in the various towns along the border, 8 million to 10 million people in a 4-year timeframe. They were all fine with that. They lost track of 300,000 kids during that time. Then, another position they were for was to abolish ICE. They don't want to enforce our immigration laws. No. We have to abolish ICE. Being doxed, tracked, harassed, spit on, sworn at, and attacked, and making death threats on ICE agents and their families, as if that wasn't enough, now the Democrats say we want to get rid of them altogether. That is really going to help the situation in our country. Third, they are for sanctuary jurisdictions. We just passed legislation in our committee 2 weeks ago to deal with this in 18 cities, 11 States, 3 counties, the District of Columbia. Mr. Speaker, 31½ percent of the population of this country resides in a jurisdiction where leftwing political leaders tell local law enforcement not to work with Federal law enforcement when it comes to enforcing Federal law. That is maybe one of the dumbest things I have ever heard, but that is their position.”
