  1. No we just don't care about the lies coming from the Right about the border.

  2.  @laurelbarlow5733  I'm in no doubt to a degree, but in no way is the left nearly as bad. I've yet to see an example. And as far as the issue at the Border. the Right has a definite monopoly on false claims and out right lies in an attempt to manipulate viewers in order to undermine asylum laws at the border. Most claims I hear from the Right who complain about left wing lies, those claims lack context and facts as well. The border issue show many good examples of Right wing tactics of misinformation. Like flying immigrants around in the middle of the night, giving out phones, $450k settlements, Asylum laws at the border.

  3. We had a 17 year decline in southern border crossing to the lowest point in 50 years, prior to Trump and his policies. By 2019 Trumps policies doubled the number of people crossing the southern border to 977,000, a 20 year high. Trump saw a reduction for the first 9 months of 2020, due to covid. By October of 2020 we were back to a 20 year monthly high. It has remained there and growing ever since on Trumps failed polies that created this problem. Trumps policies also violated US code 1158, that is why there is talk of a settlement with immigrants because we are being sued by LEGAL asylum seekers for his zero tolerance policy and separations. Trump was also transporting immigrants to cities all over the country in the middle of the night, just like Biden. The phones are used for the sole purpose of border patrol to contact immigrants for their court hearing to make ensure they show, otherwise they are locked out of other use. This has been a complaint of the Right of immigrants not showing up, and the same method was used under Trump.

  4. Why does the Right want to ignore and subvert our long standing immigration laws?
