We don’t need our Democratic Senators-either one of them—stoking the fake “crisis” at the border. It’s a cynical Republican ploy trotted out when convenient. Time would be better spent on actually helping solve the problem. Bad take on a great speech.

I agree w/Grant. @SenMarkKelly’s statement is disappointing. President Biden’s speech & proposals were impressive and critical for our country.

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Chandler Police Officer Christopher Farrar. Officer Farrar was struck and killed by a suspect driving a stolen vehicle earlier this evening. He was a 18-year veteran of the Chandler Police Department.
THEY SAID IT
“Just take a moment and remember to be mindful of the brave men and women who are out there daily helping to keep our community safe.”
— Sean Duggan
Chandler Police chief
“While I share President Biden’s urgency in fixing our broken immigration system, what I didn’t hear tonight was a plan to address the immediate crisis at the border.”
— Mark Kelly
U.S. Senator
“‘Wokeness’ is a problem and everyone knows it. It’s hard to talk to anybody today (and I talk to lots of people in the Democratic Party) who doesn’t say this. But they don’t want to say it out loud.”
— James Carville

“We have to prove democracy still works.”
— President Joe Biden
