   With the current border crisis where we are witnessing record numbers of illegal crossings, and a huge increase in unaccompanied minors, drugs pouring in, as well as human traffickers making cash that mirrors the drug cartels.
   
   --- So, what's the solution to our border crisis? Far leftist Michigan Representative Rashida Tlaib says it's time to defund  ICE, CPB, DHS, NRCC ...  "Look, the simple answer to that question is we must eliminate funding for CBP, ICE, and their parent organization, DHS," she said.
   
   The same solution Tlaib had one year ago in regard to the crime surge that was running unchecked last summer, and now today crime has become one of the biggest problems in America.   
   
   TODAY July 8, 2021 ---  "Squad' Dem Tlaib calls for defunding of ICE, CBP, DHS, claims they ‘terrorize’ migrants ---  Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., in a video interview made public this week doubled down on her calls to defund key immigration agencies while warning against efforts by the Biden administration to increase technology at the border.
   
   Tlaib, a key member of the "Squad," which has called for looser immigration restrictions and the abolition of agencies like Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), spoke to Just Futures Law – a legal group that fights for "a future beyond deportation and criminalization." The full interview was uploaded online on Wednesday."

   ONE YEAR AGO JULY 7, 2020 ---   Tlaib wanted to defund the police --- How did that work out?
   
   "Ayanna Pressley and Rashida Tlaib support proposed legislation to defund local police and ICE"
   
   "Massachusetts Rep. Ayanna Pressley and Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib announced their support for legislation that would strip federal funding from law enforcement."

   This unintelligent woman sits in our Congress... She is my view is about as intelligent as a snail.
   
   Her actions and suggestions in regard to crime and law enforcement are non-sensical., and dangerous.  Several border states requested military help from the Federal Government, due to being overpowered by the enormous number of migrants flowing across the border. Their pleas for help have been ignored by the Biden administration.
   
     At this point, several states are sending their National Guard to aid law enforcement at the southern border.   It appears the Biden administration is handling this problem as they do all problems --- Ignore it, lay low, and if asked about a problem. -- Just respond with ---" I will be speaking about that soon... " 
   
   I need not list tons of questions. I hope you will just share your true thoughts.

      You said, "This unintelligent woman sits in our Congress... She is my view is about as intelligent as a snail."
      
      Actually snails are interesting creatures.
      They slither about slowly and carefully with their long tenacle-eyes looking all around them. Who knows what they see. In fact, they have another shorter set of tentacles (feelers?) below those searching-in-all-directions eyes.
      I think snails deserve an apology from you.

      Tlaib, Ilhan Omar, AOC, these women strike me as the type who think a home, a business, or a country cannot run properly unless its demographic looks like a bowl of trail mix. Yet, when we look at their personal life, the way they run their private worlds, it is nothing more than the privileged calling for others to do what they refuse to.
      
      "Take on my burden, do my bidding, carry my weight, etc." all under the guise that there is some sort of, "universal We," in a dog-eat-dog world.
      
      She has the privilege of calling for policies that harm everyone around her and the country as a whole, because she'd shift stances the second rigidity would lose her a seat in power. She's lucky, though, as voters seem to have hit an all new level of seething hatred for all things seemingly-authoritarian, and she presents herself as anti-authority.
      
      She's soulfood for those who are failing to cope with a system that frowns upon lawlessness, and rarely has anything of value to say. If only she could be more realistic with her approach, but then she'd lose her voters, so it's just a mess.

   "The NRCC raised and spent tens of millions of dollars on independent expenditure advertising. Republicans won in 52 of the 66 seats where the NRCC made those expenditures.
   
   The NRCC made some of its biggest gains in New York, where two incumbents won reelection and five seats flipped from being held by Democrats to being held by Republicans.
   
   In Pennsylvania, the Committee retained seven incumbents and flipped five seats from being held by Democrats to being held by Republicans.
   
   The Committee made gains across the midwest, where it won control of both North and South Dakota, and made sizeable gains in Illinois, Wisconsin, and Michigan.
   
   The Committee targeted numerous veteran Democrats who held important posts in their party's leadership.
   
   The NRCC worked to help GOP candidates defeat Committee Chairmen John Spratt (Budget), Ike Skelton (Armed Services) ..." wikipedia
   
   - no wonder.
