This. Amazing how anyone could blame others at this point. Democrats are definitely in a defensive stance - and should be.

There's also a very good chance these people were NOT willingly in that truck. They may be part of a human trafficking ring for forced labor or prostitution (read: slavery).


Republicans specially the ones in Texas are all over that stuff. Abbott would never end that type of trafficking.


Abbott really screwed the pooch this time.


How so?
I just regret that Abbott isn't still having trucks inspected at the border.
If the truck crossed carrying the migrants, they would have found them.

This is on Biden, Harris, and Mayorkas. The incompetent Three Stooges.

It is what happens when we have a president who refuses to secure the border and enforce our border laws.

Few people realize that more migrants died trying to enter our country during Biden's first year than under Obama or Trump. And, his second year is likely to be even worse.

Over 650 migrants died at the U.S.-Mexico border in 2021, as of the most recent data posted in a Wednesday report by the International Organization for Migration's Missing Migrants Project.

650 Die at Border in First Year of Biden, 24 Percent More Than Peak Under Trump, Obama

This figure represents a 24 percent jump from the previous high of 524 posted in 2019, prior to the pandemic, under then-President Donald Trump. Furthermore, this number represents a steeper jump than the figures reported over the last three years of the Obama administration when a high of 412 was reported in 2016, representing a 58 percent change.

In the first year of his presidency, Joe Biden has overseen a continued surge of migration at the Southwest border that rose each month of his tenure from the end of January 2021 up until July 2021.

The responsibility for these horrific deaths lies squarely at the feet of the Biden administration. 100%. And all the Democrat politicians who encourage individuals to come here as undocumented immigrants.

They should be ashamed of themselves. Encouraging people to risk their lives just so that they can ensure their endless stream of cheap labor. Disgusting.


No it is on Abbott and conservatives. Conservatives have refused to do anything and Abbott has terrorized illegals increasing the power of the human traffickers. I hear 23% of his donations are from human traffickers. This is like saying guns are responsible for the school shooting deaths. No that is on conservatives.


What? Your contorted logic makes zero sense and you are posting bogus stats. Please cite a source for your lies.


It is listed on his campaign disclosure. Abbott does meet and greets with people who have ties to the traffickers. It is well known in Texas. It is also another reason DeSantis is not worried about Abbott. They have so much opposition research to drop on him it is scary.


We’re waiting for you to provide a reputable link to back up your claim, bolded above. You can’t. Liar.


Oh no it is true. Try google.


DP. You made the claim. You provide the proof.


Sure.keep telling yourself that…lol


Run along. You have nothing of value to share and look like a fool.

So it’s looks like there is a connection with the truck and Abbott. Oh this keeps getting better and better! It is really weird how the pro life governor is involved in these murders.

Abbott's truck inspection program... the one that caused massive backlogs, wasted millions in Texas taxpayer dollars, cost American businesses hundreds of millions of dollars in lost revenue, and which found NO illegal aliens and NO illegal drugs being smuggled in? That one? Greg Abbott ended up being an even more incompetent idiot than Biden and Mayorkas with that idiotic failure.

I don't get it. If the border is "wide open" as the right wing keeps claming, then why didn't those migrants just stroll right in? If it's so damn easy to get in as you all claim, then why would they put themselves through such a horrific ordeal?

Ok well should I blame the Presidents presiding over deaths like this in the 80s, 90s…. on Regan, Bush, Clinton, Bush? Because morons, this has been happening for years! You twits only care when it gets picked up by conservative news! So comical! Your anger is so ingenious!!

Exactly! Conservatives are just parroting talking points. They never engage their brains.

Glibness aside—“closing the border” tighter will do nothing to stop migration. Desperate people will find a way, and the harder you make it, the more risk they will take, and the more tragedies like this you will see.

Do Republicans have any ideas for making Latin America better for the people that live there? Doubt it.


OK. First of all.... there are so many fallacies with your post.
Biden now has the dubious honor of overseeing the most illegal encounters in history. And, he also has the dubious honor of having the most "got aways" in history. The people come in are NOT just from Latin America. They are from all over the world.... Afghanistan, China, Africa, and countless other countries. More than 100 countries, actually.

They are coming here because the word is out.... if you arrive to our southern border, you have a damn good chance of getting in and staying. Biden has made that clear with his rhetoric and his policies. And, if you don't believe me..... listen to the migrants themselves.

This is just one. There are many other similar videos out there.....



Where is our "border czar" Kamala who was supposed to be working on "root causes?" Absent. Just like Biden (who, BTW - has NEVER in his life been to the southern border). And, Mayorkas is doing nothing to secure our border.

Their strategy is to facilitate entries and "relocation" - much like a travel agency. They are doing nothing to make our border more secure. Just making it easier to process and transport migrants who enter.

"Desperate people who find a way" need to be stopped at the border, detained, and processed. Then, deported. But, that is not happening. They are being transported to places further inland because the record numbers. The border agents have been pulled to process, babysit, transport, and care for migrants instead of doing their jobs of patrolling our border. That is why we have a record number of got aways with Biden... the border is not secure and agents are not patrolling it to catch the got aways.

We have given BILLIONS of $$ to Latin American countries. It has not helped. More money is not going to do it.

Secure the border. Deport illegal entries. The message will get out that you won't get in if you come. And, allow the border agents to do their jobs.


Lol conservatives lime having cheap replaceable labor. Republicans will never close the border or stop the flow. Businesses like to make money.


You're confusing republican donors with republican voters.

Sorry no. This happens when people lose faith in their countries and want to flee to one that appears to be working. But I realize you’re here to parrot Fox and conservative hate towards immigrants. This scenario happens all the time but the news selectively reports on it. If you lived along the border you would know this.


Except that they openly say they came here to make $8 per hour instead of $2 per hour there and intend to send half their earnings to the homeland to build a new house and pay for aunties and cousins stuff. The sense of entitlement is real. It is a stressful life if people demanding your greenbacks.



Wanting a better life and willing to work for it isn’t entitlement. Having grown up in a border town, your characterization of people is wrong and deeply offensive. Get outside of your bubble! It’s just embarrassing.

Oh I agree, the GOP is happy to do what their donors want, not what the rubes want.

The Dems at least seem to want to implement what their base wants rather than being horrified by what the GOP base wants.

No American administration is equipped to handle this.

Americans need to build that horribly expensive wall, maintain checkpoints and take humane care of the few migrants who make it through, and who are heeded for jobs. It will take a combo of Dem and Rep solutions to control that border and it’s going to cost a lot.

I can say this because I’m a foreigner and don’t feel like I ‘m betraying one side or the other!
