Hey, maybe AOC the bartender can schedule one of those cry photo ops near the border wall once it’s finally built? She’s really triggered over Joey’s decision to build the wall after he couldn’t even get Democrats in congress to re-appropriate money that was allocated for the border wall. Too bad, so sad.
Socialist Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York lambasted President Joe Biden for his “cruel” decision to build a border wall to ease the migrant crisis.
Ocasio-Cortez issued the statement Thursday after the Biden administration announced the reversal on building up a border wall. The order will allow the government to sidestep environmental regulations in order to resume a plan initiated during the Trump administration.
“The Biden administration was not required to expand construction of the border wall – and they certainly were not required to waive several environmental laws to expedite the building,” wrote Ocasio-Cortez.
“The President needs to take responsibility for this decision and reverse course,” she added.
“A wall does nothing to deter people who are fleeing poverty and violence from coming to the United States.” Ocasio-Cortez continued. “You do not risk your life or your childrens’ (sic) lives going through the Darién Gap or traversing hundreds of miles of desert if you have any other options. Walls only serve to push migrants into more remote areas, increasing their chances of death. It is a cruel policy.”
