Senator Adam Schiff is showing his true colors once again, threatening to defund America's border security agencies in what appears to be another radical leftist attack on law enforcement. The California Democrat went on NBC's Meet the Press Sunday to announce that "Democrats are not going to fund" the Department of Homeland Security, refusing to give ICE or Border Patrol "another dime" following the Pretti shooting incident.
This is the same Adam Schiff who spent years lying to the American people about Russian collusion, and now he's putting partisan politics ahead of national security. With President Trump's mass deportation operations ramping up and illegal immigration still plaguing our southern border, Schiff wants to pull the rug out from under the brave men and women protecting our homeland.
Democrats Playing Politics With Border Security
Schiff's threat comes as Congress faces a crucial appropriations deadline, with six funding bills hanging in the balance. Rather than working with the Trump administration to secure our borders, Democrats are apparently willing to shut down essential immigration enforcement over a single incident they're using as political ammunition.
"Democrats are not going to fund another dime for agencies that refuse to protect American communities," Schiff declared, completely ignoring the thousands of Americans killed by illegal immigrants his party has welcomed into the country.
This is rich coming from the same party that defunded police departments across America while crime skyrocketed in Democrat-run cities. Now they want to extend their anti-law enforcement crusade to our border security agencies, right when Trump is trying to clean up the immigration mess left by four years of Biden's open border policies.
Patriots need to ask themselves: why are Democrats so desperate to protect illegal immigrants while attacking the agents trying to enforce our immigration laws? Schiff's latest stunt proves that the radical left will stop at nothing to obstruct Trump's America First agenda, even if it means leaving our borders wide open to criminals, drugs, and terrorists.
The American people voted for secure borders and mass deportations in November. Will Republicans in Congress let Schiff and his Democratic allies hold border security hostage, or will they stand firm and give our ICE and Border Patrol agents the resources they need to protect our nation?
