Angel Family Thanks Bill Clinton for Immigration Comments
Former President Bill Clinton has been out on the campaign trail for Kamala Harris over the last week or so.
Clinton has been trying to redirect the aim of immigration criticism off Harris and over to Trump and the Republicans.
Clinton was probably the last Democrat president who was actually hard on immigration, but he got his facts messed up, and an Angel family wanted to thank him.
Telling the Truth
“Angel” is the designation that has been given to the family members of victims of violent crimes by illegal immigrants.
The Angel family of Rachel Morin, a mother of five who was brutally murdered by an MS-13 gang member in this country illegally, had some kind words for Bill Clinton.
Clinton, while out on the campaign trail stumping for Harris, stated, “You had a case in Georgia not very long ago, didn’t you?
“They made an ad about it, a young woman who had been killed by an immigrant. Yeah, well, if they’d all been properly vetted, that probably wouldn’t have happened. But if they are properly vetted, that doesn’t happen.”
Clinton went on to try to blame Trump and Republicans for blocking legislation that had worked its way through the Senate as the culprit.
However, that legislation was not even being discussed until about two years after the murder of Riley.
In his efforts clear Harris of blame, all Biden really did was expose the fact that the Biden-Harris border plan was responsible.
Patty Morin, Rachel’s mother, stated, “President Clinton acknowledged the failed border policies of the Biden-Harris administration that has cost America so much.
“Had the border been secured and proper vetting done, Laken Riley, Rachel Morin, and so many other Americans would be alive today. I commend President Clinton for telling the truth about the Biden-Harris border failures.”
Clinton, who was very tough on illegal immigration as president, actually made several gaffes during his speech.
For instance, he stated that illegal crossings had gone down every year under this administration, but that could not be further from the truth.
That stat may have held true at the Georgia border, but Biden-Harris administration has set record after record for illegal crossings since taking office.
That flow did not slow until January, when Biden finally locked down the border because it was an election year.
Just as a side note… the original legislation that passed Congress to fund a border wall was passed when Bill Clinton was president, and guess whose signature is also on that legislation for having supported it?
That’s right… Joe Biden.
That legislation was the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996.
