Conservative News DailyFebruary 9, 2023

Rep. Byron Donalds is fed up with Democrats trying to paint Republican efforts to control the southern border and protect it as part of a larger political agenda. “white nationalist conspiracy,” This was so convincing that, during a hearing this past week, the black conservative said to them that if he believed it, they could speak it to him face-to-face.

The Oversight Committee Democrats tweeted the situation on Wednesday.

“Good morning and good luck to everyone except @GOPoversight members who are using today’s hearing to amplify white nationalist conspiracy theories instead of a comprehensive solution to protect our borders and strengthen our immigration system,” Please read the article.

Donalds wasn’t going to tolerate that, and made it abundantly clear during the hearing.

“I’m not doing that,” Donalds denied the accusation. “So if you feel that strongly, come walk over to this side of the room and let’s talk about it face to face. But leave that kind of silly stuff for somebody else. Don’t bring that here today. This stuff is serious.”

The President’s Executive orders from January 2021, which changed our border policy, have caused a huge FOUR-FOLD increase of illegal border crossings (4.5M).

We would love for him to work with us, but he needs to actually work to secure the border.

Challenge Not Accepted

The tweet that accuses Republicans of amplifying the rhetoric is still in effect as of this writing “white nationalist conspiracy theories” is still up and no one has accepted Rep. Donalds’ challenge to confront him publicly or privately.

However, this didn’t stop some Democrats from trying to bring it up during the hearing. Democrats called out Arizona Republican Representative Paul Gosar, who had said that President Biden’s plan to handle the wave of immigrants at the southern border was “more big brother, more control, even changing our culture.”

“I understand what he’s trying to say,” Maxwell Frost, Democrat. “But I believe that immigrants are American and thus part of American culture.”

While Democrats tried to downplay the recent issues surrounding drug and human trafficking at Mexico’s southern border, Gosar held firm to his opinion.

“Illegal immigration changes our culture of law and order,” Gosar. “We have a lawful process for immigration. Millions of people have immigrated here lawfully. But in the last two years, six million illegal aliens have violated our laws, and are changing our culture based on the rule of law.”

He concluded his remarks with the following: “My colleague on the committee spoke about legal immigration being part of our culture. And with that, I agree. But I part ways with them on illegal immigration.”

I’ve been to the border, I’ve seen the empty Plan B packages, & I’ve been briefed on the rise of rapes & sexual assaults of women & girls on the journey to Biden’s open border.

The Border is Broken

The hearing revealed that border officers have made it clear that the increase in criminals crossing the border between the U.S.A. and Mexico has caused a near-catastrophic environment for border states. Now, the effects of that are affecting the entire nation.

Border Chief John Modlin emphasized He expressed concern about the large number of single males entering the country from Arizona near Tucson.

“The most notable factor that sets Tucson apart from the rest of the southwest border is the migrant demographic,” Modlin.

“In Tucson the vast majority of encounters are single adult males attempting to avoid detection. The smuggling organizations to our south are very well organized and resourceful,” He said that he was referring specifically to the cartels. “Each and every person crossing through the Tucson Sector must pay these criminal organizations. These criminal organizations employ various tactics to move thousands of migrants illegally across the border.”

The ongoing Fentanyl crisis These deadly drugs are also brought into the country by smugglers. This is made worse by the fact that most of the fentanyl found in our country was sourced from China.
