President Biden thread

Published

Wow.  No one has started such a thread yet?

After promising that most K-8 students would be in schools in the first 100 days,  apparently Joe is afraid to lead on this and has drastically scaled back that goal.

Instead, we're shooting for about half to go to school at least one day a week,  by the end of April.

And a little racism thrown in also.  I didn't realize that any people of any particular  color are taken for granted in an election.  

Yes! Racist indeed. 

Biden in his 2020 election bid told Charlamaine the God that if they "don't vote for him and they vote for the other guy, they ain't black".

Suspects in kidnapping and strangulation of a 12 year old girl entered the country earlier this year and were caught.  Unfortunately,  they were released into our country the same day.

"Two men who are charged with capital murder in the death of 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray, are being held on immigration detainers at the Harris County Jail,  U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said in a statement Friday.

According to ICE, Franklin Jose Peña Ramos, 26, and Johan Jose Rangel Martinez, 22, "illegally entered the U.S. without inspection, parole or admission by a U.S. immigration officer on an unknown date and at an unknown location." On March 14, Martinez was taken into U.S. Border Patrol custody near El Paso. That same day he was released on an order of recognizance with a notice to appear, the statement said."

And some how this is OK with Democrats?  Absolutely not.  These people entered the country illegally and should have been returned to their country of origin to be imprisoned or imprisoned here.  I don't care, as long as they are locked up somewhere.  Illegals are an entirely different matter than people who stand in line.  They only way we can change this is to 1.  better patrol the border (Trump wanted a wall rather than okaying the Border Patrol's  request for drones instead of a wall, and 2.  Abolish entrance with a request for amnesty except for the most obvious danger to life.  But, nevertheless, Trump didn't REALLY want this when push came to shove as shown by his refusal to OK any kind of reform under this administration.  Very, very cynical.

I'm not familiar with the drone thing. Was it explained why drones were not implemented?  

So who will monitor or man these drones? Do drones create a physical barrier? The most basic way tho secure anything is with a barrier. It's basic logic.

If democrats really wanted border security they would have acted on day 1. They did not. 

If democrats wanted border security they would not have denied there was  crisis there for 3.5 yrs. 

If democrats wanted border security then Biden wouldn't have had ended the Trump administration border policy on day 1. Or conveniently wait for election time "to do something about the border" via executive order while praising himself for "fixing" something he created. 

If democrats really wanted border security they would not have proposed a bill that also included high funding for Ukraine.  Thus knowing that Republicans would not agree. What they wanted was a way to defame Republicans for "not really wanting border security" and possibly to assert the Republicans are in a "cult" of Trump.

You must be trying to associate this event with President Biden.

Why didn't Trump build that wall that he promised?  Bannon raised money for it and Trump took money from military budgets for the wall, why didn't he build it?

How does the fact check explain why? It doesn't, only disputing how much wall was built.

No, I don't think that anyone is OK with a little girl or anyone else getting murdered.

Well, then you should be like me in wondering why these two weren't locked up.  They broke our laws and were caught.   They were set free inside our country the same day.  

Border security had nothing to do with this situation.  Your misunderstanding of Trump and the wall isn't relevant.

I think you meant asylum, not amnesty.  And, I agree.

Exactly.  Trump built very little wall in his 4 years even though Bannon raised money and Trump diverted funds to build a wall.  Why didn't Trump build that wall?

I'm pretty sure Bannon and his buddy stole  a lot of the money he raised. Also, neither the defense nor the  construction industries are known for their financial integrity. Trump didn't invent business fraud - just imitated his betters like all the other gangsters.

"The number of migrants flocking to the US-Mexico border from a country known as a hotbed of ISIS recruitment has skyrocketed under President Biden.

More than 1,500 migrants from Tajikistan are known to have crossed the border between October 2020 and May 2024, according to leaked border data obtained by The Post.

At least 500 Tajiks have been caught so far this year."
