As RedState reported, Vice President Kamala Harris visited the southern border on Friday in an effort to laughably try and portray herself as a staunch proponent of strong border security and the rule of law ahead of the November election.

Harris, who is the Democrat presidential nominee, was in Arizona alongside Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ), where she barely bothered to speak beyond giving a short but revealing speech and meeting with officials for photo ops but not the actual border patrol agents who put their lives on the line daily to protect impacted communities. 

Also of note is that Harris did not bother to bring up numbers released Friday by ICE showing that a staggering amount of non-detained illegal immigrants convicted of violent crimes are still roaming the United States despite having final orders for removal.

It was all too much for GOP strategist and CNN political analyst Scott Jennings, who dropped some inconvenient facts on the liberal panelists including Obama alum Van Jones, whose facial expressions as Jennings was talking said it all:

In fact, I think the Trump campaign line today ought to be arsonist returns to scene of crime. I mean, look at the last three-and-a-half years, we've got the border is effectively been opened, people flowing across.

ICE today, released information that there are 13,000 noncitizens convicted of homicide and almost 16,000 noncitizens convicted of some kind of sexual crime who are in the country right now.

Only because we are in the shadow of an election is Kamala Harris trying to rush and pay some lip service to this issue as a tactical matter, Anderson.

I don't think Harris should be trying to elevate this issue because this is the best ground from which Donald Trump has to fight.

So no, I think the Harris campaign is making a tactical mistake and I think they have very little to say that the American people are going to buy on this today.

Later, Jennings shared more hard truths about Kamala Harris' border visit in contrast to her past stances:

It's not that it took them too long. It's that they actively worked to undo everything Donald Trump had done during his time in office.

On the first day, they rescinded all of Donald Trump's border executive orders. The floodgates opened. All of these people come rushing across. Then it becomes a political problem. And now, at the end of the election, they want to blame it on Donald Trump.

For her entire career, she has wanted a more permissive immigration structure. When she ran for president before, she wanted to decriminalize border crossings. In her heart -- in her heart of hearts, she wants a more liberal, permissive immigration structure. And in his heart of hearts, Donald Trump wants to crack down on the border.

Cartoonist and political commentator Scott Adams was all of us in his reaction to the clip, tweeting "Watching Scott Jennings cause his cohosts to make those faces while hearing the truth is my new favorite hobby."

Indeed.
