Democrat Rep: U.S. Must Scrap Statue Of Liberty If Border Is Secured | Eastern NC Now

    Freshman Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-FL) launched a tirade against the Republican-led Secure the Border Act - H.R. 2 - and claimed that if the House Republicans acted to secure the U.S.-Mexico border, they should also be in favor of scrapping the Statue of Liberty.

    Frost held up his own bill - which would remove the iconic statue from New York's harbor - telling Republican lawmakers that he had "taken the liberty of drafting it" and suggesting that they could pass it alongside the "bigoted" H.R. 2.

    "My colleagues from the other side of the aisle, let's be honest with immigrants who deserve better than what you're offering them. Don't welcome immigrants if you plan to reject them. If you keep pushing your bigoted H.R. 2 bill, then also pass this bill. I've taken the liberty of drafting it for you," Frost announced, waving the paper at them. "It removes the Statue of Liberty, our largest symbol that tells people to come here."

    "This is who you are, removing the fabric of America," he accused his colleagues. "So, I want to know which Republican, who supports and voted for H.R.2, will introduce this bill. If you're gonna support H.R.2 and these bigoted measures, the least you can do is not be a damn liar."

    Senator Rick Scott (R-FL) responded to Frost's tirade, saying, "This is the kind of serious policy debate we've come to expect from @DebbieforFL's top surrogate. Excited to hear where Debbie stands on this debate. For the record, I'm pro-border security and anti-taking down the Statue of Liberty."

    "There's only one party in this country that wants to tear down statues, and it's not Republicans," Mark Hemingway added.

    Despite Frost's speech, 14 members of his own party voted with Republicans on House Resolution 957, "Denouncing the Biden administration's open-borders policies, condemning the national security and public safety crisis along the southwest border, and urging President Biden to end his administration's open-borders policies."

Understanding that there are two firm positions concerning the Open Border Crises, but many realties regarding its current, and, or projected real impacts to the functioning, sustainability of this Constitutional Republic: What position below best represents what you know to be true regarding this impactful policy?

  The United States' must continue the Executive initiative of Open Borders until a Democratic Congress can codify full Demographic Inclusion by keeping the Biden /Harris Open Borders policy in place.

  Our United States' borders are sovereign just as are our self-governed citizens, where borders must be maintained, monitored and defended, which is the position of core Republicans.

  I am in favor of Open Borders to make my America more of a global community; however, the federal government must now fix problems that "Red State" governors have caused in our cities.

  I do NOT favor the Democratic Socialists' disruption of the cultural fabric of my Representative Republic, and there will be Treasonous Hell to Pay when the certain calamity begins in earnest.

Considering what real news is available for all to witness, and in great specificity, should one pursue what is true outside of the channeled realm of the corrupt corporate /legacy media, and: Is Institutionalized Corruption real, and is it a hindrance to sustaining our Constitutional Republic now, and for future generations of American citizens?

  Yes

  No

  Not sure

Should the Institutionalized Corruption of the Biden /Harris Administration, in this separate instance the Open Border Policy of our Sovereign Southern Border, be not only tolerated, but sanctioned by the raising of local spending by local politicians to pay for these now visible and known effects of rampant, and out-of-control Illegal Immigration?

  Yes, it is a kind thing to do, and a way that our county, our state can aid in this tremendous effort toward local federal foreign aid; and now, thankfully, in great abundance.

  No, our Constitutional Republic WILL NOT continue to exist, as our United States of America, if we do not control our sovereign borders, to protect our citizens, to keep them solvent and safe.

  I only consider what is topical and popular since my friends, too, only care to do the same.
