Beg to differ, I think VP Harris is one hundred percent wrong.
She's wrong about history and she's wrong about seeking asylum under US law. It is 100% legal to pe ion for asylum in person in the US, and US policy has had something to do with chronic political instability in the region.
Fwiw, I also think it's shameful that the USA would say this to any group of people seeking asylum from organized violence and political oppression.

Even The New York Times Now Admits That It’s US Sanctions, Not Socialism, That’s Destroying Venezuela
The facile right-wing talking point that the economic crisis facing Venezuela “proves” that “socialism always ends in failure” has become so hackneyed by overuse that it has attained its own tongue-in-cheek name.
evidence of an economic war against the Venezuelan government ever since Hugo Chavez was first elected in 1998.
US-imposed sanctions have augmented these factors as well as compounded the suffering felt by ordinary Venezuelans.
In a May 30 article in The New York Times about how organized crime groups have stepped in to provide services in certain Caracas neighborhoods,
The US government’s intention behind the sanctions, meanwhile, is straightforward. Its goal is to goad the country’s populace into turning against its government via a brutal form of collective punishment – something which is illegal according to international law.
This crippling form of non-military warfare, more accurately described as an economic blockade, has led to roughly $130 billion in damage to Cuba’s economy
inflicted severe suffering on Cuba’s civilian population according to mainstream human rights organizations and academic research.
sanctions actually lead to increases in corruption and organized criminal activity in the countries they target.
“Not only are sanctions… frequently ineffective, they also can be counterproductive… [because they] encourage government corruption and the development of transnational organized crime.”
sanctioned governments tend to become less democratic and are more likely to engage in human rights abuses, restrict women’s rights, and curb media freedoms.”
Washington bases its decision to impose sanctions on a very simple criterion – whether or not a country is obediently serving its economic and geostrategic interests and accommodating its preferred neoliberal economic system.

ad nauseam, for 100 years, throughout Central and South America.
I understand the bare knuckles political calculation for saying this. The 10-20% of Americans who rabidly care about this.
Like the ostensible precedent -- Obama/Bidens's historically aggressive border enforcement from 2008-2016 -- Biden will earn no bipartisan brownie points for being tuff, no matter how tough he is. Just all the shame.
Kopmala is a GOPer plain and simple
Biden democrats will never admit to the following 2 truths:
1) Biden is in the Right. (Yes GOP currently is in the Far Right. Thats true)
2) Kamala is to the Right of Biden. In other words she is closer to the Far Right than to the Center.
Cheerleaders here will never admit or accept this. But its the plain truth.
Can't wait till she's POTUS, tbhmost likely the worst vice president we have had in decades
Not gonna happen
I don't think there's a choice if old joe kicks the bucket
In before darrins’ liver falls off from drinking should Kamala ever be inaugurated
Yes. And you are extreme right wing ma nig.
Shes got the best chance out of every single human alive. And thats scary
"And I haven't been to Europe."
Reminds me of back in the day the Democrats and their blue anon minions saying that sh** like this made it so GWB didn't have the necessary foreign policy experience.
to trigger the neckbeards
So u rather have one of the worst president ever to trigger ppl you dont like??
Lol
Biden has successfully been able duck the border sandwich by making Kamala the scapegoat for it. Great political move on his part.
She’s unelectable at the top of the ticket.
If Biden doesn’t run in 2024 Roy Cooper is the best candidate imo.
I’m not even sure who likes Kamala other than Resist Twitter wine moms. She didn’t really ad any value as the VP pick and she’s Hillary-like in the sense she’s driven purely by political ambition but lacks any real ideals she’s known for.
Militant heffers and shillary die hards love them some Kopmala.
I doubt anyone else likes her. Cheerleqders tolerate and 3ven defend her but thats cheerleaders for you.
She polleed 7% maximum nationwide and is as unlikeable as Shillary. Except at least Hillary had brains, this thing has the intellect of a marmot
not sure how either one of those demographics are any different than Resist Twitter wine moms
I would pepper in some emo males and some males that have never had sex in there tbqhnot sure how either one of those demographics are any different than Resist Twitter wine moms
Also some of those males who like fat women walking on them with stilettos on
Na, the emo males/incels are either tankies or paleocons, one extreme or the other.
Old Joe throwing Kopmala under the bus already
“Some administration officials are quietly perplexed about the Vice President’s answers to some questions, in particular the particular question she got from Lester Holt where she equated the question about the border with Europe. There was hope the trip would be a success, and in the end, they feel it may have been overshadowed by some of her answers to these questions,” CNNs Diamond reported.
