Vice President Kamala Harris published a video of herself this week showing the senior official walking from a massive SUV to her private jet to discuss “climate change” in Nevada.
“Today I’m heading to Lake Mead in Nevada to discuss the climate crisis–and why we must make historic investments to not only create jobs, but preserve our planet for generations to come,” posted Harris on Twitter.

Harris trip comes as tens of thousands of Central American migrants make their way to the US-Mexico border.
Congressman Dan Crenshaw blasted the Biden administration’s disastrous border policy during an interview with Fox News last week; saying DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas should be impeached for “dereliction of duty.”
“I think there’s very clear examples of a deliberate dereliction of constitutional duty on the part of the secretary of Homeland Security — to protect this country. It actually is very little to do with the cancelation of the border wall contracts. I think that’s infuriating, but the real dereliction of duty is simply a refusal to actually enforce the laws of our country,” said the Republican.
“Those laws might be our asylum process laws, those laws might be internal enforcement inside where deportations are necessary, those laws might be simply crossing the border illegally. And the only action that DHS has taken has been against those border agents trying to do their job on horseback, trying to stop people from rushing the border. So it’s — this is very deliberate since the intent matters when you’re accusing somebody of what is effectively a crime. And in this case, I think it deserves impeachment. Absolutely,” he added.

GOV ABBOTT: Texas Will Hire Horseback Border Agents if Fired by Biden
Texas Governor Greg Abbott weighed-in this week on the Biden administration’s public attacks on their own border agents; saying the Lone Star State will hire the horseback officers should they be fired by the Department of Homeland Security.
“If Biden fires the Border Patrol Officers who were securing the border on horseback, Texas will offer them a job. They can bring their horses too. We will put them on the front line to do Biden’s job to secure the border,” posted Abbott in Twitter.

In previous comments, the President said the mounted officers “will pay” for their interaction with Haitian migrants near Del Rio, Texas.
“Given what we saw at the border this week, have you failed? This is happening on your watch. Do you take responsibility?” asked one reporter.
“To see people treated like they did? Horses running them over? People being strapped? It’s outrageous. I promise you, those people will pay,” said the President. “There’s an investigation under way now and there will be consequences. It’s dangerous, it’s wrong. It sends the wrong message around the world.”
GABBARD to BIDEN: ‘Crisis on the Southern Border is the Direct Result of Your Open-Border Policy’
Former Presidential Candidate Tulsi Gabbard called-out the Biden administration Wednesday night, saying the current crisis spiraling out of control along the US-Mexico is a direct result of the President’s policies.
“Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, the humanitarian and national security crisis on the southern border is the direct result of your open-border policy. As I said in my 2020 presidential campaign, we can’t have a secure nation if we don’t secure our borders,” posted Gabbard on Twitter.

Congresswoman Maxine Waters raised eyebrows among millions of Americans this week when she blamed Donald Trump for the current border crisis and claimed the situation in Texas is now “worse than slavery.”
“Haitians fleeing violence & the lack of a credible government in Haiti are being treated like animals. U.S. government cowboys on horses used whips on Haitians as they sought refuge. Why are we following the Trump policies? This horrendous treatment of Haitians must STOP NOW,” posted Waters on Twitter.

“What the hell are we doing here?” she told a crowd in Washington, DC. “What we witnessed takes us back hundreds of years. What we witnessed is worse than what we witnessed in slavery. Cowboys whipping black people, Haitians, into the water.”
“All they’re trying to do is escape from violence in their country,” she added.

Rep. Rashida Tlaib made similar remarks Wednesday.
“What we all witnessed in Del Rio, Texas was disgusting not just because of the rogue, out-of-control CBP, but also because the actions were a blatant betrayal of our human rights values,” said Tlaib.
