Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) would have allowed several of the terrorists who killed nearly 3,000 people in New York and Washington, DC, on September 11, 2001, to have remained in the United States illegally.
That is the logical conclusion to be drawn from her comment on Monday at an immigration roundtable in New York that there seemed to be no “point” or “purpose” to enforcing the country’s immigration laws other than at the border.
Pelosi said:
When I saw that the president was going to have these [Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE] raids, it was so appalling, it’s outside the circle of civilized human behavior to just be kicking down doors, splitting up families, and the rest of that, in addition to the injustices that are happening at the border. We have legislation to go forward to address those needs. But in terms of interior enforcement, what is the purpose? What’s the point?
“Well — I won’t even go into what the motivation might be for that here, because this is not a political event,” she added, hinting at a repeated accusation of racism.
The president delayed ICE raids that were to have taken place Sunday morning, targeting 2,000 illegal aliens around the country who had already been ordered to be deported. He said he wished to give Congress two weeks to find a legislative solution to the country’s existing, flawed asylum laws, which encourage illegal crossings over the border.
maybe crazy nancy needs a STRAIGHT JACKET. comments like this violate her oath of office-TRAITOR
Pelosi is also one of the jabbering parrots that rattle, “No one is above the law.” I guess what she and the other dim wits mean is no REPUBLICAN is above the law as we define it at any given time. They don’t mean to imply they actually respect laws and expect them to be applied to themselves as they are to others.
Uh… the LAW. Protecting US citizens. Duh.
At least Pelosi didn’t invite the Taliban to a secret Camp David meeting on the anniversary of the occasion…
Republican reps cite 9/11 anniversary in criticizing Trump decision to invite Taliban to US for peace talks
I suppose I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt and attribute this to total cluelessness.
@Greg: At least Trump didn’t leave a consulate exposed to the known terrorist threats, then lie about the attack. At least Trump does not negotiate by delivering pallets of billions of dollars. At least Trump doesn’t beg terrorists to accept their terms simply so he can get some headlines.
What is really funny about the Camp David story is the number of liberals that simply jumped to the conclusion that Trump was making the story up, only to be PROVEN to be biased, prejudiced idiots. Basically, you people don’t know WHAT to believe until you are TOLD what to believe.
