In response to the devastating vehicle-ramming attack in New Orleans on New Year’s Day, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) insinuated that the Biden administration’s border policy was to blame — all of which appear now to have jumped the gun.

Glad someone is speaking up about the wide open border between Texas and Louisiana. We’ve gotta shut that shit down.

Gotta evacuate Robert Evans (podcaster and author of Behind the Bastards and After The Revolution) and all the good people in Austin first, though…

The issue is that Texas state politicians absolutely love to rattle the secession sabor but they all know where their bread is buttered.

They would never actually do it. Their voters don’t know that.

100% being brown will be enough to kick you out, even if you were born there.

Let’s lay outcome facts at this-time frame:

Shamsud-Din Jabbar was identified as a U.S. citizen born in Texas.

Jabbar had served in the U.S. Army and had a degree from Georgia State University.

While Jabbar had a criminal record related to traffic offenses and theft, there is no indication that these offenses pertained to immigration violations or that they affected his citizenship status.

The FBI’s investigation into Jabbar’s potential associations with terroristic organizations does not imply anything about his immigration status but rather focuses on his actions during the attack.

So, given these parameters why is this a Biden border issue?

Because he is the marked enemy. They need a boogeyman.

They have one tool: blame outsiders. It doesn’t matter if no outsiders are involved. If they let up on blaming outsiders for a second, their supporters might notice their lives aren’t actually getting better.
