We're not finishing the border wall - just cleaning up Trump's mess: Karine Jean-Pierre says Biden is plugging gaps in Arizona to 'save lives' and calls border walls 'ineffective' in stopping migrants
2022-07-31
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on Friday denied that the Biden administration was completing former President Donald Trump's border wall

  • 'We are not finishing the wall, we are cleaning up the mess the prior administration left behind in their failed attempt to build a wall,' she said

  • She was asked why the Biden administration had authorized U.S. Customs and Border Protection to close gaps in a section of Arizona's wall

  • The Yuma Morelos Dam Project will close four gaps located within an 'incomplete border barrier project' near Arizona's Morelos Dam to protect migrants from drowning as they crossed the Colorado River

#5  We got another Baghdad Bob in the WH. Why climb a tree to tell a lie when you can stay on the ground to tell the truth?

Hell, even I could develop a better Spin Story that these WH PR amateurs.

Maybe I should apply and then have FOX-News hire me away after a few weeks.

#2  'We are not finishing the wall, we are cleaning up the mess the prior administration left behind in their failed attempt to build a wall,'

For once, she does have a point, however small - then speaker Ryan and The Turtle in the Senate (2016) did everything possible to stop & hinder border wall construction with the pitifully small amounts allocated to that effort, amongst other monkey wrenches they threw into Trump's agenda.

Also - never underestimate the power of 2 million Federal employees who were actively working against Trump.
