Only slightly ironic that someone who thinks cis gender is a pronoun is talking about someone's intellect,  eh, friends?

The ironic part is the assumption that you have friends

Little would you know,  the joke's on you (and a few others) with that one,  cis pronoun.

Dimocrat Governor of New York, Kathy Hochul:

HOCHUL: Well, we want them to have a limit on who can come across the border. It is too open right now. People coming from all over the world are finding their way through, simply saying they need asylum, and the majority of them seem to be ending up in the streets of New York and that is a real problem for New York City. One hundred and twenty five thousand newly arrived individuals, and we are being taxed. We are always so proud of the fact that New York has the Statue of Liberty in our harbor. We are one of the most diverse places on earth because of our welcoming nature and it's in our DNA to welcome immigrants. But there has to be some limits in place. And Congress has to put more controls at the border and not in this budget threat, shutdown threat. Talk about eliminating positions for Border Patrol, well, we actually need to double or quadruple those numbers. So get back to work and do your jobs.

That's more of a condemnation of the racist GOP than anything else. 

But,  if course that little nuance would ecscape you.

Great news!  Opportunity is knocking for some bipartisan legislation.  Forward this to Kevin McCarthy since he is the one responsible for that and outward appearance suggests he didn't read it.

Of course, if he did act on that you'd cry about the deep state distracting from the real mission of Congress, which is crucifying Hunter Biden and voting for the speaker.

As typical for leftists, after celebrating the non-compliance of existing laws, when confronted with the consequences, they seek to lay the blame on some imagined absence of law.  Absurd.  Bananas.

Which laws are you referring to?  MAGA is not shy with respect to litigation.  They've lost 100s of them the last couple years.

[Offthemat]

You’re joking, right?

[Plasmodium]

No, not jokinj.

Why this very morning MAGA is court for one of five pending cases.  Reason?  Non-compliance with the law.

The subject of Hochul’s response was the border and immigration.

More sanctuary city unraveling:
 

A top advisor to Mayor Eric Adams on Sunday called for the federal government to “close the borders” in order to prevent more migrants from coming to New York City.

“We need the federal government, the Congress members, the Senate and the president to do its job: close the borders,” Adams’ senior advisor Ingrid Lewis-Martin said during an interview on PIX11. “And until you close the borders, you need to come up with a full-on decompression strategy where you can take all of our migrants and move them throughout all of our 50 states.”

Full circle back to Kevin McCarthy.

At least we’re at the stage of acknowledging there’s a problem. Now we move into the phase where it’s someone else’s fault.
