Rep. Mayra Flores (R-TX) delivered her first remarks in the US Congress today.
Mayra is the first Republican to represent her district in over 100 years!
Rep. Flores will represent Brownsville, Harlingen, and Kingsville, communities ravaged by Joe Biden’s devastating open border policies.
The number of migrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border in May broke all Department of Homeland Security (DHS) records, a record last set in March of 2000.According to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) stats announced last week, border authorities encountered 239,416 migrants during the month at the nation’s southern border.

I have a number of relatives by marriage who live or lived in Mississippi who picked cotton for years. All of them are white.

Yahooo and the best of all things to you, young lady, you deserve to be where you are now ... just remember who sent you there and why and follow the truly, duly elected President Donald J. Trump who will, once again, be out nations leader and stronger and more driven than the first time, if that's at all possible

Grandparents of Mr. & Mrs. Rumblehog picked cotton. In laws were sharecroppers during the Depression in Oklahoma too... and all were WHITE, by the way.

This is something you will never hear from a democrat. They don't rise from cotton fields. They rise from Harvard law school paid for by daddy. They have never worked a day in their life and never will.

When a conservative says "I Have Risen from Working in the Cotton Fields to Representing the Community I
love in US Congress”, they are expressing their gratitude for this great nation that we live in for making it possible for anyone to succeed if they are willing to work hard and sacrifice!!!!
When a lie-beral says the same thing, they are whining and crying about "racism" and wallowing in "class warfare"!!!!!
Thank you Rep. Mayra Flores for being one of the "good guys"!!!!!!

Saw this young lady on Tucker Carlson last night. She said that her priorities are her faith, she actually said God, family and work ethic. You could almost hear the knives being sharpened in the cesspool on the Potomac. They will try and carve her up but she seems feisty and brave, centered and committed to her values and beliefs. I wish her nothing but the best because she is entering a pit of vipers all poised and ready to strike. God bless her and give her wisdom. She is going to need it.

She said something on Tucker like her first loyalty is to God, not the Democratic Party. I honor her for thinking for herself and for having four children in this increasingly barren country. Four children to carry on her legacy. Pay attention, conservatives.

The democrats were hoping to discourage Americans by opening the southern border...instead they angered US and woke US up...the democrats will never recover...china put their hopes into the wrong party...by buying their way into the house and senate...and let's not forget the rinos...mcconnell is married to the chi/com family...china wants Americans quiet and submissive...well...that's not happening...

Dear Representative - I am so happy to read that you embrace what America is all about - work hard, educated yourself, keep your nose clean, and take advantage of what she has to offer. Too bad so many of our natural-born citizens have not learned this lesson. Good Luck to you!

Mayra is an answer to our prayers. May her tribe increase. God bless and protect her, her family and especially her border patrol husband.

Catholic, married to a border control agent, born in Mexico . . . even though her parents supported the Democrat party they raised her with conservative values. As a consequence of the pro-life worldview they instilled in her, Mayra was drawn to the Republican party.
This is how you get a border wall built.

My people, Lithuanians, were kidnapped, enslaved, raped, tortured, starved, froze or executed, if not worked to death by the fooking Rooskies, of which, I'm embarrassed to say I have some Rooskie blood in me.
This black slave narrative chaps my ars!
