‘They Will Pay’

 

President Joe Biden called scenes of Border Patrol agents allegedly menacing Haitian immigrants trying to cross the Texas border “horrible” and vowed those responsible “will pay” amid growing criticism from his own party. An internal investigation is under way and the agents could face disciplinary action. — Bloomberg News

“It’s horrible what you saw. To see people like they did, with horses, running them over, people being strapped, it’s outrageous,” Biden said at the White House. — CNN

The photographer who took the photos of mounted Border Patrol officers said the agents did not whip the Haitians, or strike them with their reins. The angry old man in the White House has already made up what’s left of his mind to punish Border Patrol officers.

The White House war on law enforcement officers has found its way to the border.

The photographer who took controversial photos at the Texas border says that the images have been dramatically misinterpreted

    Biden seems to have forgotten that he’s in authority now and needs law enforcement personnel to protect him from the people.  He’d better make nice with those guys.

    The most striking aspect of the video is the complete impotence of the border control and the complete disregard for the border control by the “immigrants”.  The “immigrants“ know the drill.

    If Eridemus was the man on the horse, I swear I would wish I COULD pull out a real whip! Good thing border control agents have more control than most of us and in case a normal emotional person accidentally qualified, they don’t even carry whips. I think this nonsense is actually creating sympathy for the agents. Would you want those disrespecful ground characters in your neighborhood after seeing how they might respond to average police?

    Bad press? Can’t be me or my VP. Must be the boarder patrol.

    Did you hear Kamala this week? “There is going to be an investigation.” Kamala, you are supposed to be the border czar. Who writes the reports you read?

    “Hey Kamala – make sure you root cause it back to January 2021, for the breadth of your investigation, as to why there’s a) exponentially more “immigrants” trying to cross, and b) why a defanged and now wall-less Border Patrol can’t keep illegals out.”

    My assumption is that Kamala’s investigation will take 3 years and she’ll already have been discarded by the Democratic party as a candidate who can’t win.  In other words, there is no net value in having her around.

    In the end, the only one paying is going to be the us treasury when those border agents are cleared and they keep getting their paychecks. They should take pictures of their paychecks and post them online.

    Optimist. The agents could very well be Chauvinated. Nobody died, so it’s not murder, but agents could do hard time. I know it’s BS. I’mjust saying that this BS is what’s out there.

    What would the charge be?

    Not using preferred pronouns. It’s a federal offence these days.

    Doing their job without due consideration to the optics. 

    It’s long been a firing offense.

    Dems don’t need the border patrol.  They are happy with 93,000 people overdosing and lawlessness to spread throughout the land.  The elites have their own security.

    I’m old enough to remember when ‘make them pay’ was something presidents said about America’s enemies rather than America’s citizens.

    How much of the truth has been carried on main steam media?

    States have to take charge of their international borders.
