Analysis | The GOP’s pernicious link between terrorism and the border wall

Terrorists are crossing the border. Border patrol officers have said so. Why are you on the side of terrorists. Yes, we know you are protected, they can't get to you, but why do you want them to get to middle class America. You lie to the weak minded. Stop it

Analysis: creating a divisional narrative regarding the border wall. The Wall isn't truly about deterring terrorism, it all about illegal immigration.

Anyone from any country can get in from Mexico. 1300 miles of the border is wide open. This is not a new issue. President Trump is the first one with the courage to actually do what we the people want. Safety in our country.

The only link to terrorism is your dirty foreign hands washing each other. joerogan

Terrorists don't understand walls. They get confused and give up and go home to get real jobs and start new lives. Everybody knows that. You can only enter the country via the southern border bc it's cold up north and water on the sides. Everybody knows that.

Bush and WMD...same type of ploy..get people believing, then it looks like it has to be done. Not buying tho

AaronBlake more homegrown terrorists than from mexico. Torrance Ca bowling alley!!!!

Donna48826306 The Wall has very little to do w/ terrorism, & more to do with illegal immigration, & drug & human trafficking; all of which detroy lives & communities. Let’s stop stubborn politics by Dems & Reps. Walls don’t discriminate against LEGAL immigrants, & will protect DACA children.

Mirror mirror on the Wall..

The pernicious link between fake news and the Washington Post

I don’t trust Pompeo... I don’t like him either!

the Post, as usual, is being dishonest. The link is become illegal aliens, such as the one who killed Cpl. Singh, and weak borders,. not terrorism per se althought of course, that is a danger

well now TSA agents calling off sick, i guess we would need to build wall around every airport...

Do you think GOP willfully ignoring who and how committed the attacks in the last 30 years? Would the border wall have stopped those attacks?

Trumpski doesn't back down.He lied about Mexico and Mexicans To get elected. He Lied about Terrorist in the Caravan.His Admin Continues to lie about Mexico and Mexicans. Hes painted himself into a corner and wants to paint a window on the wall and jump thru it. Invoke The 25th.🤨

Pernicious? Big word for describing grave harm being inflicted by tRump’s LIES about terrorists that only a wall can stop. And the likes of Pompeo, Scalise, Nielsen & Faux News amplify the lie. Meanwhile the big casualty is a warped sense of the actual threats this country faces.

And they want Pompeo to run for senate in Kansas. Do they think Kansans are so ignorant, stupid that they would forget about his support of a murderous prince, support caging and separating children at the border, lying about terrorists crossing the border, lying for Trump?

Anything that slows or impedes movement across the border will help. It is very simple.

Via plane at airports. This is another complete lie

You anti-border security folks will be the death of us all in the US, either slowly by uncontrolled crime or catastrophically by missing that one or two that didnt come here to find work. You are all living in Lala Land where you are directed by political idiots.

'...but the misinformation campaign is at full throttle.' 😂😂😂😂 and WaPa is at the wheel ...I mean, come on, you took TommyRobinson off twitter, you took Milo off Twitter, you took LauraLoomer off twitter, you really think Americans can't see through you ☄️

Are you suggesting terrorists don’t cross the southern border?

The GOP platform

Terrorism on other side of the border is alive and well. I work with 2 Mexicans from border towns south of AZ. Their towns are terrorized each night. They welcome a border wall / any security that would help put a stop to illegal trafficking of people, drugs, and guns (from US)

Trump doesn’t believe in government. He will never reopen government if he has the power to keep it closed. He is an authoritarian leader. Wake up.

Iraq redux. Pass off BS, declare Nat emergency, build wall. Authoritarianism coming in hot next week.

Not “pernicious”, BuildTheWall is common sense.

You could say lies, bullshit, alternative facts. Thanks for being you

Murderers

Pompey, grow a spine!! You know the facts do not support what 45 spews

GOP Rep. Will Hurd says President Trump's border wall is the 'least effective' border security measureGOP congressman does not want Trumps' border wall. Hurd discussed President Trump's declaring a national emergency on 'The View' and his proposals for border security. The great Wall of China kept China safe for millions of years Trump's declaration of a NationalEmergency is not an unconstitutional power grab. In National Emergencies Act of 1976 Congress expressly delegated to President the discretion to declare one, and if it disagrees Congress can undo with joint resolution. Trump easily wins in court.
