Arizona Senate candidate Kari Lake criticized Vice President Harris’ border visit, echoing comments from other conservatives who viewed the event as a “photo op.”
Vice President Kamala Harris’ recent border visit came under fire from a list of critics, and Arizona Senate candidate Kari Lake has added herself to that list.
“I find it despicable”, the Trump ally told Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo on Sunday.
“She spent 20 minutes on the border. She’s been the border czar for almost four years now, and she came down, I think, to make her friends in the mainstream media happy so that they could finally say she visited the border, spent 20 minutes staring down at her feet, standing next to the wall, and I was surprised she didn’t call Joe Biden and say, ‘We did it, Joe. We destroyed America,’ because that’s exactly what they’re attempting to do”, she continued.
Lake appeared on “Sunday Morning Futures” this week along with National Border Patrol Council Vice President Art Del Cueto.
There, the two highlighted heightened concerns that criminal illegal immigrant offenders are roaming free inside the United States, including over 425,000 who have reportedly been convicted of a crime, more than 13,000 who have been convicted of homicide and more than 15,000 who have been convicted of sexual assault, according to a letter Acting ICE Director Patrick Lechleitner penned to Texas Republican Rep.
