Official LRC Kamala Harris for President Thread

The Ukraine part of the bill wasn't what the Republicans had a problem with; they subsequently passed an aid package to Ukraine separately.

And although it may have changed the amnesty process, the bill did a whole lot more than that to secure the border. It authorized the President to close the border under certain circumstances and ended "catch and release", among other things.

The Biden-backed compromise bill was crafted to reduce border crossings, raise the standard for migrants to qualify for asylum and empower officials to rapidly send away those who fail to meet that standard. It would give the president power to shut down the border if migration levels exceed certain thresholds. On the brink of its release earlier this year, Lankford told NBC News it was “by far the most conservative border security bill in four decades.”

Senate Republicans block border security bill as they campaign on border chaos

Nearly every GOP senator, along with six Democrats, voted to filibuster a bipartisan bill designed to crack down on migration and reduce border crossings.

The union that represents Border Patrol agents strongly endorsed the bill.

The Border Act of 2024 will codify into law authorities that U.S. Border Patrol agents never had in the past. This will allow us to remove single adults expeditiously and without a lengthy judicial review, which historically has required the release of these individuals into the interior of the U.S.”
The statement continues: “This alone will drop illegal border crossings nationwide and will allow a great many of our agents to get back to detecting and apprehending those who want to cross our borders illegally and evade apprehension. While not perfect, the Border Act of 2024 is a step in the right direction and is far better than the status quo, which is why the National Border Patrol Council endorses the bill and hopes for a quick passage.”

Great Country: Laughs Trump off-stage in a heartbeat when he runs for the R nomination the first time.

Good country: In 2016, too many voters take a chance on a clearly significantly flawed person because they think that he might shake things up in a good way that most career politicians wouldn't.

_______ country: Roughly half STILL want him to be president after nearly a decade of him demonstrating that he's the worst public official in U.S. history (and REALLY shi*** human being, to boot).

(Hint: That last blank is NOT filled with the word "Great.")

Thanks Kamala - you bumbling idiot of a Border Czar.

No matter how many times you repeat a lie, it is still a lie.

Meanwhile, while to markets soar another stock is at records lows.

TrumpMTG (might as well stand for Marjorie Taylor Green) stock continues its dive. Look at it daily trades it is obvious some fools keep dumping money into it to keep it certain levels. The donation infusion to prop it back over 22 failed. The donation infusion to prop it back over 21 failed. Now, the donation infusion to prop it back over 20 failing. This all just from this week!

The Trump stock executives sold large blocks of stock several few ago. Nunes dumped over $600k.

It has been obvious that TMTG is not a stock at all. It is a way of bypassing campaign donation limits to Trump. That being done so that Trump can use more regular donation money and use it to embarrass himself further. What will the clown with no disgusting low to low for him to reach do next?

-- Desecrate another military burial ceremony by have a large male goon attack a female member of the military telling them to follow the rules they agreed to? No photos!!!! . . . Too late.

-- Photograph himself in front of another perfect part of the wall ... built by Biden or Clinton rather than Obama next time?

-- Dump Vance and install either RFK Jr (alcoholic) of Tulsi Gabbard (Russian plant) as VP? Or as co-VPs? Tulsi just so be can grab her by the pucci? She won't say no.

At some point, I think Dump is going to blurt out that still missing Top Secret documents he stole, are not missing at all. He donated them to Russia, Saudi Arabia, North Korea, Venezuela and other anti-democratic countries he admires. Of course donated to Trump means the money must be donated into his pocket to receive the goods.

I followed the Trump hooker trial quite a bit, Impartial Observer. I followed it close enough to know that the jury was never instructed "that Cohen being guilty of a crime meant Trump was guilty of the same crime." That never happened. And, as I've said before, you don't need to have followed the trial at all to know that never happened. All you need to do is read the jury instructions to know that you friend Winston "Blame America First" Smith was lying when he said the jury was instructed that way. He's a liar.

The short article you linked doesn't contradict me at all. (It would be hard to do so, since Winston Smith was lying in the first place.) So, I really don't know how you concluded that I didn't follow the Trump hooker trial based on anything I posted in this thread. In any case, I did follow quite a bit, and I believe I can talk about the Trump hookers case in an informed way.

The article you linked briefly discusses one criticism of the jury instructions made by one of Trump's attorneys. The article never mentions "heavily biased" -- that appears to be something you inserted here. The jury instruction issue from your article has never been addressed in this thread as far as I know. If you want to provide commentary on it, I'd probably respond, either agreeing or disagreeing with you. But so far, you've added nothing except a link to an article that had nothing to do with the non-existent jury instruction that Winston Smith lied about.

I shouldn't engage on this, since you are obviously trolling.

But, anyway, here goes.

Show me where Biden called Harris the Border Czar.

Why did Comer and Jordan impeach Mayorkas for what they claimed was a failure to secure the border if Harris was the Border Czar?

Why didn't Comer and Jordan impeach Harris for failing to secure the border?

The answers may be found here:

Harris was never appointed “border czar” and her role in leading aspects of immigration policy for the Biden administration largely focused on diplomatic engagements with officials in Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras who, according to President Joe Biden in March 2021, were “going to need help in stemming the movement of so many folks, stemming the migration to our southern border.”

Border czar, the title, is the title Republicans gave her,” former Obama administration Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said on Fox News on Tuesday. “She assumed the role that Vice President Biden had during the Obama administration, which is diplomacy with Central America. That is a role he had. He gave it to her. She is not the border czar. To the extent there's anybody who's the border czar, it's the secretary of Homeland Security.”

“The President has asked [Homeland Security] Secretary [Alejandro] Mayorkas to address what is going on at the border,” Harris said in April 2021, when asked by a reporter if she planned on traveling to the United States’ southern border. “I have been asked to lead the issue of dealing with root causes in the Northern Triangle, similar to what then-Vice President [Biden] did many years ago.”

There was no FEC violation and hence no crime. The judge disallowed that testimony and allowed the jury to think that the FEC violation was a "crime" they could use to elevate the bookkeeping misdemeanor to a felony.

Your bias is interfering with your ability to look at this objectively. Is Randy Zelin "Trump's attorney"?

I question the wisdom of voting for a man for president who couldn't even keep his oath of office last time. He swore to protect the Constitution and then four years later loudly said it should be terminated.
