Axelrod: Biden Is Shifting on Border Because
of Politics, Migrant Busing ‘Very Effective’
at Getting Dems to Shift

Original Article

On Friday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Inside Politics,” CNN Senior Political Commentator and former Obama Adviser David Axelrod stated that President Joe Biden has shifted positions on immigration because Democrats have moved on the issue because busing migrants to sanctuary cities “has been very effective” in getting Democrats to flip. Host Dana Bash said, “[T]he change is that more and more Democrats are taking — voters — are taking a hard line. It looks as though the White House, the President is seeing that and kind of following their lead.”Axelrod responded, “Yes. Two points on this: Whatever you think about what Gov. Abbott (R) has done, it was diabolically clever, because

The GOP is at risk if our reps are seen as impediments to controlling the border - a Dimocrat legislative trap. They should instead pass a clean border bill in the House without any other attachments like aid to Ukraine or Israel and should absolutely refuse to pretend that controlling the border equals 'allowing' ANY number of unpenalized immigration.

Like Thatcher said, socialism is great until you run out of other people's money. All those virtue signaling chuckle heads made their sanctuary cities but never had to put their money where their mouth is. Busing forced them to deal with it and only a few weeks; worth of illegals was enough to break every single one of them. Straight out of their own rules for radicals playbook: make them live by their own rules and standards. Brilliant.

Gee, who could have guessed that? Everything Biden has done lately is with the election in mind but supporting both sides of every major issue is an obvious blunder of a very stupid man. Next thing you know he will be opening up the country for oil and gas drilling while still trying to push EV cars and trucks on unwilling buyers.

It’s been the plan all along. There are enough illegals now to control the elections for years to come. Black Americans are finally waking up for the first time since 1963 when LBJ put them on the plantation.

EVERYTHING that democrats do accomplishes one or more of the following. 1. Improves short or long term election chances. 2. Advances single party power and control. 3. Enriches career politicians. When was the last time that the democrats did something that actually benefitted the Nation, didn't fleece actual tax payers, didn't line the pockets of some liberal victim group??

Axelrod, the red diaper doper baby is lying about Trump's opposition to the bill. It's a bad bill that allows 5K illegals per week to enter the country. Biteme has the tools right now to stop the flow. The house has passed a clean border bill that Upchuck refuses to bring to the senate floor.

The bill does nothing to control the border. Clearly Biden already has the authority to do that and he refuses. Eagle Pass Texas is a glaring example. He’s trying to order the border patrol to cut the wire and let the illegals in. Axelrod is spewing propaganda at the request of Obama. A lame attempt to shift the blame.

This has my vote for understatement of the week. Like it's news that anything Biden is told to do by Obama's flying monkeys has everything to do with politics and reelection. Democrats only care about power and holding onto it. This is a great opportunity for the GOP to seize on as the Biden regime seems to go back to Trump era policies in order to stabilize the border. Translation: Trump was spot on all along.

Chances are that during the run up to the November General Election, Biden and the leftist and socialist Democrats are going to make themselves look a lot more conservative than the wimpy , when it comes to mass uncontrolled illegal immigration and Biden’s “open borders” schemes that violate the immigration laws passed by Congress. They will do that with big support from the liberal media, by continuously and fraudulently blaming Trump, and the wimpy Republicans, to their low information supporters who don’t know which way is up.

Donald J.

He then talked of how he warned the American people that Joe Biden would bring America into a perilous situation, should he be elected. Trump then added, “The only thing I didn’t know: I didn’t know how bad it would be.”

Washington— The release of a harshly critical Justice Department special counsel report on President Joe Biden has triggered instant flashbacks to history-shaping events of 2016. That’s when FBI Director James Comey castigated Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton over her email practices despite recommending against charges. In this year’s already heated election season, the Justice Department cleared Democrat Biden, too, of criminal wrongdoing but painted a politically damaging picture of his handling of classified information. Both announcements were derided by Democrats for their potential to unduly shape public perception in an election year — and for the inclusion of what they saw as

They state that “if ever there were a time to do so, now would be it,” and insist that if the president “is not competent to stand trial, then he is certainly not competent to lead the free world.” While highlighting evidence of America’s oldest ever president “willfully” mishandling classified documents, Special Counsel Hur’s report details Biden’s significant cognitive decline — perhaps more politically damning than his handling of classified materials.

Joe Biden, senior aides and political observers strongly criticised the special counsel, Robert Hur, for extensively discussing the president’s age and allegedly fading memory in his report on Biden’s retention of classified information from his time as a senator and as vice-president – which did not produce an indictment. Hur, who Donald Trump appointed US attorney for Maryland, “could not refrain from investigative excess”, said Bob Bauer, Biden’s personal counsel. Though this was “perhaps unsurprising given the intense pressures of the current political environment”, Bauer added, the final report “flouts Department [of Justice] regulations and norms”.

Even before the Special Counsel report arrived, the president had been spending the week mistaking European political leaders for their deceased predecessors. Then the report detonated. It announced that the DOJ would not pursue charges against Joe Biden over his unlawful conduct, despite evidence that he "willfully retained and disclosed classified materials after his vice presidency," including items that were marked highly classified.

Two of the three suspects, including a teen who lives at a nearby migrant shelter, were later confronted by a female security guard in the lobby.
