So, we were told yesterday that even if you’re vaccinated, the masks are coming back. This, after 15 months of people losing their jobs, businesses being closed, kids being homeschooled, getting vaccinated, and all the other disruptions we’ve experienced.

Yet the CDC completely ignores the most egregious Covid violations which are now taking place at Joe Biden‘s southern border debacle.

The CDC, and this administration, can go straight to hell as far as I’m concerned.

Agree. Tammy Bruce showed a bunch of stats yesterday on this latest 'outbreak' and it was eye opening. It's completely political BS.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) on Tuesday ordered the National Guard to help local law enforcement with arresting migrants as the state continues to see an influx of people crossing the southern border.
"I hereby order that the Texas National Guard assist DPS in enforcing Texas law by arresting lawbreakers at the border." he said.
Nearly 189,000 attempted crossings were reported in June.

I couldn't agree more. There is something nefarious going on in our country right now.

The question is will Biden have the courage to shut down the country again? As we head into the Winter and half the country heads indoors the transmissions of covid will go up. The issue is the Democrats used the last shutdown to bash on Trump. Who will they blame this time around?



I think we will be shut down but the border no way.

If you've spent any time at the border - you would know the answer to that question. Thousands - if not hundreds of thousands - of workers - BOTH WAYS - cross daily. Can't test 'em every day. So - close the border. Now what?


All that stuff you buy for cheap in Ohio? Made by Mexicans...in El Paso. It's a huge pile of dominos. You can stop COVID at the border, sort of, but that kind (and volume) of manufacturing simply doesn't happen at the North Border.


Let's just pick an imaginary item - really, I'm making it up - let's say, hm, eggs? If the southern border closed, but now eggs are 55 dollars a dozen -would you be happier or sadder? That's the kinda trade of the admin. has to consider.


It ain't eggs. But it's lots of other stuff. Don't believe it? Go down there and work for a while.

The ports of entry for non essential travel from Mexico to the USA have been closed since spring 2020. Biden has extended the closure each month. Homeland security controls the borders not the CDC.

DHS extends restrictions on 'non-essential' US-Mexico border travel through Aug. 21

https://www.elpasotimes.com/story/ne...hs/7915559002/

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security on Wednesday extended restrictions on "non-essential" travel at land ports of entry through Aug. 21, according to a notice in the Federal Register.

The U.S. and Mexico have been in negotiations regarding the ongoing northbound restrictions, which have been in place for 16 months.
At midnight on March 21, 2020, the Department of Homeland Security closed land ports of entry to all but "essential" travel in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
