Al Sharpton calls border crisis an 'invasion,' wants GOP senators pressured for 'allowing this to continue'

[FoxNews] 'You’re seeing an influx of migrants all over the country that, frankly, have people outraged,' Sharpton warned

MSNBC host Al Sharpton said that Americans "every day" are witnessing the "invasion" of migrants into America.

While bashing some Republicans for not getting on board with the Senate immigration bill unveiled over the weekend, MSNBC host Al Sharpton used the word "invasion" Monday to describe the border crisis, which some liberals found to be highly controversial.

President Biden and politicians from both the Democratic and Republican parties have touted the deal as a bipartisan compromise to secure the border. However, many Republicans argue that not only is this deal insufficient, but Biden already has the necessary ability to take action to secure the border. One of their main critiques is that it would include Title 42-type authority that would only be mandated if numbers at the southern border exceeded 5,000 migrant encounters a day. Democratic California Sen. Alex Padilla is so far the only Democratic senator to have publicly criticized the bill. He called the deal a "new version of a failed Trump-era immigration policy that will cause more chaos at the border, not less."

Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., went on "Morning Joe" to tout the bill he helped negotiate and Sharpton asked him what could be done to get voters to pressure their senators to support the bill.

Sharpton expressed urgency and channeled people "outraged" across the country at the "influx of migrants," pointing the finger at senators who aren't on board as the ones "allowing this to continue."

"What is being done to get the public to really rise up in various states to say to their senators that they want to see the border issue resolved?" he asked. "I mean, you’re getting migrants beating up policemen in the streets of New York. You’re seeing an influx of migrants all over the country that, frankly, have people outraged. Couldn’t there be some kind of public pressure put in the next couple of days in some of these senators’ states saying, ‘Why are you allowing this to continue?’ Because at the end of the day, senators have to deal with their voters."

After mentioning funding to Israel and Gaza, Sharpton went back to the border, referring to the migrant crisis as an "invasion," a term that sparks outrage among immigration advocates and the left.

"But the border, I mean, we’re looking every day at the invasion of migrants, and they’re playing a time game with politics on this?" Sharpton asked. "Couldn’t the pressure be put to bear in their home states?"

#2 All these decades that Sharpton's been race hustling, filling his own pockets, he was too busy to notice what's been happening. Maybe it's better late than never but maybe it's too late.

#4 So, of course, he's looking for support for the "compromise" bill that allows the invasion to continue. It's the Republican's that are refusing to support it, naturally.

#7 He knows this issue is sinking the demoncrats so they flipped the script from "No issue here" to "It's the Republican's fault" in 3 days.

Even normies are getting information whiplash from this.
