Vice President Kamala Harris has supported bipartisan border security solutions and has demonstrated a long-standing commitment to working with regional partners to address the root causes of irregular migration. The current administration's focus evolved to leading a hemisphere-wide effort to mitigate, manage, and order migration through creating and adopting the landmark Los Angeles Declaration on Migration and Protection alongside 21 partners from across the region - notably the first time such a hemispheric-wide agreement directly involved the United States and Canada. read more

There's enough gaslighting in that post to power an entire mid-sized city for a week.
Directly quoting people is Leftturd's idea of gaslighting.
Quelle surprise.
Lefthandturd just got blowed-up and his lying beak still hasn't realized it yet.
If a city has 22% unemployment and citizens are moving out because they can't find work
More Visitor BS from Russian disinformation.
What's behind the rise of Haitians in Springfield?Springfield Ohio's unemployment rate thru the years. anyone with eyes and a brain with notice that the city during the period of growth started in 2015 there has only been a brief period during mid 2020 where Springfield's unemployment rate spiked at 16.5 % and dropped down to 5.5% by November.
Thousands of new jobs had been created there, thanks to a successful effort by the city's leadership and Chamber of Commerce to attract new business to Springfield, which sits between Columbus and Dayton. Once a manufacturing hub, Springfield saw its economy shrink after factories closed and jobs migrated overseas. By about 2015, its population had dwindled to under 60,000, from about 80,000 in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
Companies that set up shop, however, confronted a dire labor shortage.
Haitians in Florida, Haiti and South America heard from friends and family about Springfield and its need for workers. They began arriving to take jobs in warehouses, manufacturing and the service sector, and employers urged the new workers to encourage other Haitians to join them.
Springfield has struggled to handle soaring demand placed on health care, housing, schools and roads.
Some initiatives already underway include offering English language classes, driving courses and instruction about finances and the U.S. banking system.
Gov. Mike DeWine announced last week that the state would provide Springfield with $2.5 million to ease strains on primary health care and would deploy members of the state highway patrol to improve road safety.
The mayor of Springfield, Rob Rue, said that he was still hoping to receive federal assistance.
Never trust a liar who refuses to support their data with links.
What Trump should (but doesn't) understand about the Iran hacking storyTrumpy's law of transitive property is quite something, isn't it?
If the allegations are accurate, Iran successfully breached the Trump campaign and obtained private information. Iran then offered stolen materials to Democrats; and Democrats ignored the outreach. Law enforcement agencies tracked the stolen information from the Trump campaign and determined that several people linked to Biden's campaign received emails containing the information. The recipients never responded to the emails and may not have even opened them because they appeared to be phishing attempts, the sources added."
The Republican nominee responded to the news in a decidedly Trumpian way.
"WOW, JUST OUT!" the former president wrote in a hysterical screed, published to his social media platform. "THE FBI CAUGHT IRAN SPYING ON MY CAMPAIGN, AND GIVING ALL OF THE INFORMATION TO THE KAMALA HARRIS CAMPAIGN. THEREFORE SHE AND HER CAMPAIGN WERE ILLEGALLY SPYING ON ME. TO BE KNOWN AS THE IRAN, IRAN, IRAN CASE! WILL KAMALA RESIGN IN DISGRACE FROM POLITICS? WILL THE COMMUNIST LEFT PICK A NEW CANDIDATE TO REPLACE HER?"
In case this weren't quite enough, Trump published a follow-up item soon after, insisting that the vice president is "getting illegal campaign help from Iran."
The GOP nominee apparently sees all of this as some kind of parallel to his Russia scandal, but the comparison quickly falls apart: Team Trump welcomed, received, benefited from, and lied about Russian assistance. Team Harris didn't welcome, receive, benefit from, or lie about Iranian offers of assistance, so the idea that the two are similar is absurd.
Finally, let's not forget that Trump is on record publicly endorsing foreign intervention in American political campaigns. In fact, in June 2019, the then-president spoke to ABC News' George Stephanopoulos, who asked an important hypothetical: If foreigners offered Trump campaign officials information ahead of the 2020 election, should they accept the dirt or should they call the FBI?
"I think maybe you do both," Trump replied. "I think you might want to listen, there's nothing wrong with listening. If somebody called from a country, Norway, We have information on your opponent,' oh I think I'd want to hear it."

That's well and good, but what's it got to do with the Haitians in Springfield?
You refuse to educate yourself on things you're ignorant of. There are no open borders, there never has been. The asylum rules have been changed. No one is denying our system is broken, yet you deny the best bipartisan solution in history was rejected by Trump to get idiots like you frothing out of that ignorance.
Trump doesn't want to solve the problem, he only wants to demagogue it, like he did in 2016. He had 4 years, and what did he improve in the overall system? Nada.
Here's what Biden and Harris have done.
They've addressed the root causes to stop people from reaching our borders and it's working. Fewer and fewer are showing up each month. But hard work isn't sexy not does it fit on bumper stickers.
More than $15million loss for the last three reporting months.
I'm no accountant, but my first guess would be that something is very wrong in the business plan of that company.
Not in Trumpville. There, this called a resounding success(!)*
(*- as long as Trump gets to pull a couple billion out of it before it all goes down for the last time.)
