The Alabama senator used a story about sex trafficking to criticize the Biden administration’s border policies. But the events appear to have occurred in Mexico years ago.

    “We know that President Biden didn’t just create this border crisis,” she said. “He invited it.”

    This from the party that’s explicitly invited a border crisis. Although, that’s not actually inconsistent since the only reason they want it is so they can try to blame it on Biden.

    I would have more respect for them if instead of this they just got drunk and yelled “oh no, Biden shit my pants again!” Not only would it be more dignified, it would actually be more plausible.
