Democrats are suddenly singing a different tune on the border

Politicians often change their minds on issues. Even more often, politicians say one thing, then do another. But rarely do you see them turn on a dime the way Democrats are turning on the border right now.

Biden's entire administration, from President Biden down, until recently denied that there was any problem at the border at all. Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas testified before Congress that “the border is secure.” He denied that the situation at the border was a crisis, stating that the border was “not open.”

But if what Mayorkas said had been true, then the bill introduced in the Senate on Sunday would be unnecessary. If it wasn’t true — well, draw your own conclusions.

Rather than investigate the failures and untruths of Mayorkas or the Biden administration, the Washington Post has run a puff piece about the secretary, titled, “Back to the wall, Alejandro Mayorkas tries to build a border legacy.”

This slobbering love letter opens like a novel, pinning the blame for much of the border crisis on Republicans. It calls the impeachment inquiry into Mayorkas over perjury allegations “the latest escalation in congressional Republicans’ efforts to blame a spike in illegal border crossings on the Biden administration, as well as their desire to impeach somebody, if not Biden himself.”

Did Republicans somehow create the border........
