Joe Biden tried to work his spin machine again, and this time it backfired.
Biden very selectively chose an item line in the House Freedom Caucus to make an accusation against “MAGA” Republicans.
The moment he posted it on Twitter, it blew up right in his face.
The Tweet
So, this is what Joe sent out to the American people…
MAGA House Republican proposals would slash funding for border security – a move that could allow nearly 900 pounds of fentanyl into our country.
We need more resources to secure the border. Not less. pic.twitter.com/bKuQnFPuzP

First, the caucus budget to which he refers is not even an approved budget plan by the GOP.
This is what that specific caucus is putting on the table.
Second, their money allocation for Border Patrol is less because they took the time to go to the border and talk to agents to find out what they need to do their job.
As it turns out, the just need to have the restrictions removed so they can do the job they signed up.
The cuts that Biden is talking about are additions he wants to make because he wants to turn CBP into a processing unit rather than a border enforcement tool.
He is literally trying to create a whole new wing inside the agency.
Biden knows that, and we surely know that, and this was the response he got online, or at least just a small taste of it…
This must be a parody tweet… https://t.co/rFLbQw7KnT

Biden and Democrats blocked Republican efforts to hire 18,000 Border Patrol agents.
They hired 87,000 IRS agents instead.

The man lies… that is what he does best.
