This week the Biden Administration Border Czar, Vice President Kamala Harris, traveled across the country from DC to Arizona. But she confirmed to local reporters that she would NOT be visiting the disastrous open southern border to survey the damage she has enabled and ignored. She apparently can’t be bothered because she already visited the border back in 2020. Maybe she doesn’t realize that was several million illegal immigrants ago?

Y’all, it’s not really about visiting the border. I don’t generally support grandiose photo ops that cost the taxpayers a ton of money in logistics and accomplish nothing other than taking a few photos. It’s a waste, and everyone knows it’s literally just for the photos because it’s not like anything substantive can be accomplished in a short in-person presidential or vice presidential visit. May as well save the taxpayer money and just do the work in DC to make the necessary changes (if only they were actually doing that).
But when you’re already there? Seems stupid to coordinate and fund a trip all the way there and then not substantively acknowledge something that is so important to people that is right there. Remember when Biden flew to Mexico to be thanked by the President of Mexico for allowing millions of illegal immigrants into our country? He stopped off at the border on his way. It wasn’t because he cares about it, but because it would look so dismissive for him to fly directly over it and not stop to acknowledge it.
The fact that Kamala was in Arizona already and chose not to visit the border shows just how little she cares about the border crisis and about what the American people think.
