@Morning_Joe is getting blasted on twitter for his comments about the border...........

One person has also made some corrections [below]





Talk about a manufactured crisis...the Atlantic reporter just killed Scarborough with actual facts. When she mentioned 3700 children in custody yesterday, all I could reference is that number is the size of a high school in a populated area or less than members in a megachuch.

@ValiVailVali
It is beyond frustrating to hear Joe Scarborough describing the Biden Administration as “luring” immigrant children to the US. You don’t have to lure people who’re running for their lives nor is it wrong to make clear the US will treat them humanely if they must. #MorningJoe

the rise of migrants crossing the border began in May of last year, and kept rising since. I wasn't aware Biden and his policies had time-traveling powers.

Correct the erroneous media, describe the situation his administration inherited and the moves Biden is taking. Then all Dems need to repeat his message over and over and over

That’s RW BS from reports I’ve read. More like 75% show - they are IN the system so there’s no reason to hide. Not showing blows them out if the system to eventually get some legal standing to stay.

Thanks. Once you get a court hearing at least you have a chance to get some sort of legal standing. Way too much of this is glossed over purposely.

that both MSNBC and CNN show ratings down drastically. So many, me included, want a break from the constant dumb beat of political rage now that Biden and the Democrats are in power. I can foresee a time when these networks become Biden haters to generate rating revenue. Tired of it. Turning to other ways to pass time these days.

republicans are gaslighting as usual. Plus, President Biden and administration by republican's point of view should have automatically rectified the border crisis that was carried over from shithole's tenure as non leader of anybody's world.

President Biden can do miracles and solved this matter immediately with some members o ICE bucking him.

It is a slow process and I do believe that majority of the American people know this.
