GAO Dismisses Republican Probe Into Biden Order Halting Border Wall Construction

[skews13]

Nearly the entire caucus, 40 Republicans, had called on the watchdog to investigate the president’s decision, claiming in a March letter to the GAO comptroller general that Biden’s actions “were a blatant violation of federal law and infringe on Congress’s constitutional power of the purse.” Just truly extraordinary stuff here, folks. Like none of us watched congressional Republicans spend years doing zip to stop the previous president’s abuses.

Also recall that the Senate Republican caucus let the previous president off the hook for inciting a deadly insurrection at the U.S. Capitol that sought to overturn the 2020 election results, failing to convict him after he was impeached by the House for a second time. But believe them when they say they care about federal law and Congress’s constitutional powers.

GOP pushed for probe into Biden's border wall halt. Government watchdog rules his move was legal

A nonpartisan government watchdog has said that President Joe Biden did not break the law by pausing border wall construction and its funding after taking office. In a decision announced Wednesday, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) called...

How shocking they didn't take Republicans seriously on a legal issue.

Covid infected illegals flooding across the border reach a 10 year high under Biden/Harris. Americans wonder why we stopped building the wall and if Biden is on Mexico's payroll.

1. Covid infected illegals are not flooding across the border. That is a lie.

2. Americans don’t wonder why Biden stopped building the wall. Americans elected Biden to stop building the useless wall. It’s a waste of money and it doesn’t work.

3. When Donald Trump was elected, illegal border crossings were at a 50 year low. Trump stopped prosecuting employers of illegal immigrants, and two years later Trump was forced to declare a national emergency on the southern border. Perhaps if Trump continue to put prosecute employers, those employers wouldn’t have put out for hire signs south of the border and illegals wouldn’t be making a run for the border.

Given that you can now blame Biden for the numbers going up, how come you didn’t blame Trump when the numbers reached the 20 year high two years ago?
