Another Democrat politician has been caught red-handed flip-flopping on the border crisis – and this time it's Joe Biden's own hometown mayor trying to save her political skin.

Scranton Mayor Paige Cognetti, who's now desperately seeking a House seat in Pennsylvania's battleground district, recently called Biden's southern border handling "a huge misstep." But here's the kicker, patriots: this is the same mayor who enthusiastically backed Biden's disastrous open-border policies when it was politically convenient.

The timing couldn't be more transparent. With President Trump now back in the White House implementing his mass deportation program and securing our border, suddenly Democrats like Cognetti are scrambling to distance themselves from the Biden regime's catastrophic failures.

Classic Democrat Two-Step

For years, Cognetti stood by as Biden's policies allowed millions of illegal immigrants to flood across our southern border, overwhelming American communities and putting citizens at risk. She was perfectly fine with the chaos when her party was in power and the mainstream media was covering for them.

Now that Americans have spoken loudly and clearly by returning Trump to office, Cognetti wants us to forget her complicity in one of the worst border disasters in American history. Sorry, but patriots have long memories.

"This is exactly why voters rejected the Democrat Party so decisively in 2024. They're tired of politicians who change their tune the moment the political winds shift."

Cognetti's shameless pivot exposes the fundamental dishonesty at the heart of the modern Democrat Party. These politicians don't have principles – they have focus groups and polling data.

While Trump and his team work around the clock to clean up the mess Biden left behind, opportunistic Democrats like Cognetti are trying to rewrite history. They want credit for "evolving" on an issue where they were catastrophically wrong from day one.

Pennsylvania voters deserve better than a fair-weather politician who only discovers the truth when her career depends on it. The question is: will they reward this kind of political opportunism, or demand leaders with the courage to stand for what's right from the beginning?

I live 20 miles from the border and have seen firsthand what Biden's policies have done to our community. Crime is up, resources are strained, and now they want to pretend they care? My property has been crossed dozens of times in the past two years.

Stay safe out there. Our border patrol agents are overwhelmed and need all the support they can get.

This is why we need to vote them ALL out. Career politicians will say anything to stay in power!

How can we trust someone who supported open border policies for three years and now suddenly sees the light? Actions speak louder than campaign promises.

The economic impact alone should have been enough to change course years ago. My construction business has been affected by unfair wage competition from undocumented workers.

Classic election year flip-flopping. Does anyone have the voting record on this candidate's previous statements about immigration policy?

This is exactly what we've been saying! They only care about border security when their own seats are on the line. Too little, too late!

Couldn't agree more. It's all political theater with these people.

It's insulting to think voters won't remember their track record. We need representatives who stand by their principles, not ones who change with the political winds.

Exactly right. Their voting history doesn't lie, even if they do.

FINALLY someone is being held accountable for this disaster!
