OPINION:
It’s all a big, sick joke to President Biden.
Because of his intentional open-borders policies, America has lost all sovereignty. Cities as far north as Washington and New York City are going bankrupt paying for Mr. Biden’s open borders. American families have been destroyed by his open borders. Mothers suffer, burying their children because of the poison and violence Mr. Biden’s open borders have ushered into all corners of the country.
America is under invasion at the border. Mr. Biden has handed operational control of our borders over to drug lords and human smuggling cartels. Fentanyl and other drugs streaming across Mr. Biden’s open border is a weapon of mass destruction that has killed more innocent Americans than 9/11 and all American wars since World War II combined.
And Mr. Biden thinks it’s funny.
Rebecca Kiessling testified this week before the House Homeland Security Committee about the deaths of her two sons, Caleb, 20, and Kyler, 18. They died on July 29, 2020, from fentanyl poisoning after taking what they thought was Percocet.
“If we had Chinese troops lining up along our southern border with weapons aimed at our people, with weapons of mass destruction aimed at our cities, you damn well know you would do something about it,” Ms. Kiessling told Congress.
“We have a weather balloon from China going across the country,” she said. “Nobody died, and everybody’s freaking out about it. But 100,000 die every year, and nothing’s being done.”
The reason you are only now hearing about this case is that Republicans finally control the House and can have such hearings. Previously, Democrats controlled the House and were so indifferent to Mr. Biden’s annihilation of our borders that they would not hold such hearings.
Of course, the border has been under assault for most of Mr. Biden’s 50 years in Washington. He has never lifted a finger to fix the border.
The border assault over the past decades — especially the years Mr. Biden was vice president — is why Donald Trump was elected president in 2016 on promises to address the border. Mr. Trump began building a wall, but Mr. Biden’s fellow Democrats fought tooth and nail to stop him. And when Mr. Biden entered the White House, Mr. Biden scrapped all of Mr. Trump’s policies that had been effective at stemming the invasion.
Because of Mr. Biden’s removal of Mr. Trump’s policies, the border crisis is worse than ever.
And Mr. Biden thinks it’s funny.
Speaking at a Democratic Party event this week, Mr. Biden went off script and joked about the fentanyl-poisoning deaths of Caleb and Kyler Kiessling.
The intended butt of his joke was apparently Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Georgia Republican, who has been a vocal critic of Mr. Biden and his open border policies — particularly because Mr. Biden’s policies have led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Americans like the Kiessling brothers.
“A little bit of more of Marjorie Taylor Greene — and a few more — you’re gonna have a lot of Republicans running our way,” he joshed. “Isn’t she amazing? Whew.”
Specifically, Mr. Biden complained that his open border policies should not be blamed since Caleb and Kyler Kiessling died before he became president.
“I was the reason — she was very specific — I shouldn’t digress, probably,” he said, keeping his comedy routine going.
“I’ve read she was very specific recently saying that a mom — a poor mother who lost two kids to fentanyl — that I killed her sons,” Mr. Biden said awkwardly. “Well, the interesting thing: That fentanyl they took came during the last administration.”
Ooooh, gotcha! Hardy har har. What a perverted sicko.
While the jury in the Alex Murdaugh double murder trial down in South Carolina has yet to decide whether Mr. Murdaugh is a “family annihilator,” there is no question that Mr. Biden is a nation annihilator.
