Kamala Is Finally Going to the Border but There's a Small Problem

We reported on how the Biden/Harris people have finally caved and said that Kamala Harris will be going to the border (now that President Donald Trump is going).

Jen Psaki was doing her best to spin Harris’ trip to the border, but in the process, she basically admitted the border was out of control. She also claimed falsely that they were making progress when the number of people detained or encountered at the border is at its highest in 21 years.

But there’s a problem even now that Kamala has finally decided to go to the border. It’s as to where on the border she’s going, as Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) and Gov. Greg Abbott point out.

Cornyn and Abbott’s point? Harris isn’t even going to the place where the problem is the worst — in the Rio Grande Valley.

Now that’s kind of hilarious — she still can’t even get the place where the real problem is right. But one has to wonder why she isn’t going to the RGV?

There are a few reasons why.

First, exactly because it isn’t as bad in El Paso. So when the cameras are on, it wouldn’t look as desperate a situation. The wall also is more complete there and the border wouldn’t look as open. But also because the folks under the gun in the RGV, who have been so battered by the crisis, wouldn’t be in El Paso to talk to the media that will be following Harris.

We’ll have to give it to these reporters who get it and exposed this move by Harris, including our Townhall brother, Julio Rosas.

Exactly. If she went to the RGV, Harris would have to deal with and talk to Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX) who would demand real answers and wouldn’t just be ameliorative.

So while it’s funny to suggest she has no idea where she’s going, she also has a very craven reason exactly for where she’s going — to put the best possible face on the mess that she and Biden created for the media.
