During Texas Republican Representative August Pfluger's questioning of DHS Secretary Mayorkas, Rep. Pfluger described a high-speed chase that ended in tragedy. Rep. Pfluger told Secretary Mayorkas "to apologize to the family of Maria Tambunga and Emilia Tambunga, who were killed last month." Pfluger then said "They're sitting right behind you. They came here today because they want answers. They came here today because of the failures of you and your leadership. They came here because they want closure."
Mayorkas then stood and spoke to the Tambunga family, expressing his condolences to the family before accusing Rep. Pfluger of politicizing the moment. Pfluger replied that the only person politicizing the situation was Secretary Mayorkas. Then Pfluger replied with a question, asking Mayorkas "Mr. Mayorkas, do you disagree with the head Border Patrol agent when he said that our border is not secure?" Mr. Mayorkas replied "I respectfully do in that regard."
This was a powerful moment, confronting Secretary Mayorkas with his failure while putting faces on the Biden administration's failures. Prior to today, the Biden administration could deny their failure through Secretary Mayorkas' testimony. Today, the administration was forced to admit to this family that their loved ones died as a result of the administration's policies:
Then Secretary Mayorkas apologized to the Tambunga family:
Here's Rep. Phluger's cross-examination of Mayorkas: The Biden administration has repeatedly told us through Secretary Mayorkas' testimony that the border is secure. Clearly, that's a pile of BS. Today, the administration came face-to-face with their failed immigration policies. I say failed in the sense of the policies failing the American people. The Biden administration's policies are working as expected by the administration.
Apparently, Joe Biden doesn't care about the law or Supreme Court rulings. When asked about the ruling on his student loan bailout, Biden said that the Supreme Court misinterpreted the Constitution. He knows they didn't. That's just what he said to preserve the opportunity to introduce his next unconstitutional plan that will get rejected by the Supreme Court. This isn't about whether it's constitutional. It's about whether he can con enough young people into voting for him in 2024. Biden must've anticipated this ruling. Within an hour of the ruling, the Administration was out with this detailed fact sheet to replace the plan that he knew would fail. It opens with the same partisan attack as Democrats have mouthed. The fact sheet opens by saying "No President has fought harder for student debt relief than President Biden, and he’s not done yet. President Biden and Vice President Harris will not let Republican elected officials succeed in denying hard
After Minnesota's Democrats shoved the most controversial progressive legislation down Minnesotans' throats, gossip started popping up about Gov. Walz being interested in running for president . That's died off but Gov. Walz is still making headlines, this time for all the wrong reasons. First, Gov. Walz isn't the brightest bulb in the chandelier. Still, Gov. Walz is fighting against Minnesota's history. This Alpha News article quotes David Hann, the chairman of Minnesota's Republican Party, as saying " The flag the DFL has eliminated was a version of the historic flag our regiments fought under during the Civil War. Minnesota was the first state to offer troops to the Union cause in 1861 , beginning a long tradition of leading the nation in confronting injustice. The DFL quest to erase our history is repugnant and should be rejected." Gov. Walz, though, sees things differently. He's quoted as saying "Minnesota is a diverse state, it continue
Yesterday, Maria Bartiromo interrogated Gov. Ron DeSantis on Sunday Morning Futures. The first half of the interview, Bartiromo asked policy questions. Gov. DeSantis showed his understanding of the issues and presented his solutions on everything from China, inflation and growing the economy. The first reply he had was to cut spending. His next reply was to open energy production. Third, he talked about the importance of increasing productivity, which he correctly said is the best way to eliminate inflation. A little over half the way through the interview, though, it turned into an attack. Bartiromo asked "I'm wondering what's going on with your campaign. There was a lot of optimism about you running for president earlier in the year but here's this weekend's headline from the Politico Playbook: Failure to launch. Gov. Ron DeSantis's campaign to topple Donald Trump has stalled. We are way behind says a top DeSantis PAC official. What happened? Despite that bad
