Schumer blasts Graham for ‘cynical field trip’ to border
The Hill ^ | 02/16/2024 | ALEXANDER BOLTON

Posted on 02/16/2024 11:47:50 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) blasted Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) and Tim Scott (R-S.C.) on Friday for taking what Schumer’s office called “a cynical field trip to the border” after both Republican senators voted last week to block a bipartisan border deal that Graham was involved in negotiating.

Graham is coming under fire from colleagues for voting against Ukraine funding after he insisted on adding border security provisions to an emergency defense spending package and even though he and his staff had a hand in negotiating the border language.

He was supposed to lead a bipartisan delegation with Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.) to meet with NATO allies this weekend at the Munich Security Conference but canceled his trip to visit the southern border at Eagle Pass, Texas.

Any border bill needs to be separate. Tying it to any other Deep State boondoggle, and it’s a guarantee they would renege on the border part of the funding.

Cynical as in AOC at a border fence pretending to cry?

That cynical?

How dare anyone interfere with the commie embeds in our Congress as they struggle to import the basis for another permanent underclass to solidify uniparty control? /S...I guess...

AOC sobbing over the border crisis....

News Crew Boss: “Uh, Representative Ocassio-Cortez, there was a serious glitch. Nothing on camera got saved on file. We’re going to have to ask you to dry your eyes and walk all he way back down to stand on the first mark and start walking toward us again. We’re really sorry. Got an intern here today.”

AOC in pure white.

I remember overhearing one woman say to another: “We always run the chance of stains but when we wear white when we set out we know something is going to be guaranteed to get on us.”

AOC was still in perfect white despite the destitution and starvation and inhumanity all around her at the border.

Schumer doesn’t even know where the southern border is.

Chuck Schumer, Dick Durbin, Adam Schiff, have you ever seen three seedier looking characters?

Yet, Schumer wouldn’t dare make such a trip. Schumer is a coward as well as schmuck.

Seems that way! Bipolar Lindsey girl now wants to get back into the good graces of the base. To that I say, go screw yourself Pendejo Jerkoff!

Schumer is Jewish in name only. Another secular Jew using his birthright as the carte blanche for being a self-serving parasite. Did you every see him with a yalmulka on his head? NO. Look at the Hasidic Jews and you will see the true faithful Jews.
