1/8 of world's population passed thru our Southern border

[packman]

Arizona's Republican Congresswoman Debbie Lesko said on Twitter that Border Patrol agents had arrested a billion people at the U.S.-Mexico border over the past six months—wrongly adding three zeros to the correct number of a million people.

Citing a piece from the Wall Street Journal (which clearly states in its headline that one million people were arrested at the southern border), Lesko mentions the arrests as a clear sign that "President Biden's open border policies are fueling this crisis!," although she does so by quoting a made-up number of apprehended migrants.







Note two things about her Tweet- (1) of course, the billion people crap (2) If a "billion" was apprehended -Kudos to the patrol for that- then how can the borders be "open"???

Republicans hate math

3. Stupid

She’s dumb, but she’s also a backbencher who usually keeps her mouth shut, so she can hide in Biggs and Gosar’s shadows.

2. It's all they have left. Hate and fear. SAD.

6. Lying republicans continue their BS. One billion people...

that she claims came through the southern border is three times the population of the whole country. Where did all these people go?
