El Paso mayor grabs microphone and walks out of tense immigration press conference - as migrants are spotted emerging from SEWERS to enter the Texas city amid border crisis
2022-12-17
  • The mayor of El Paso, Texas bizarrely tried to walk out on a press conference Friday

  • Mayor Oscar Leeser
    ...Democrat, elected in 2021 after previously serving from 2013-2017, replacing the Republican who had replaced him...
    was challenged on why the city had not declared a state of emergency over the worsening migrant crisis

  • It comes as witnesses claim they have even seen immigrants emerging from manholes in the area

  • Mayor Leeser claims a state of emergency wouldn't help El Paso to get any more than the $6 million commitment from FEMA to stop the wave

  • However, when the city manager Mario D'Agostino disagreed with him, Leeser began to walk off and tried to take the microphone from D'Agostino

#8  We have our own local Beto/Stacey: Ammar Campa -Najjar. He's lost to DDHunter, Darrell Issa, and now John McCann in Chula Vista Mayor's race. How does he keep running? His new GF is Sara (Qualcomm Irwin has the Grandpa $) Jacobs. Like Pete, Beto, Stacey, they keep running until the ticks burrow in.

#7  Of course El Paso is in a crisis. Beto didn't get his new job, and went home, that being El Paso. Instant crisis.

#5  It looks like we are increasingly getting dragged into the Ukraine-Russian war. A good time to tell the illegal border crossers that they will likely be drafted into the Ukraine-Russian war. Look for the migrants to head back to their country of origin ASAP.

#1  There are no barricades except for those you can put up around your person. We have been fixed and isolated. We all know what comes next.
