In response to the devastating vehicle-ramming attack in New Orleans on New Year's Day, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) insinuated that the Biden administration's border policy was to blame — all of which appear now to have jumped the gun.

Everything is the border. Attacks on other innocent human beings? Immigrants. High food prices? Immigrants. Unemployment? Immigrants.

It couldn't possibly be any kind of political policy they actively oppose, socioeconomic issues, no, nothing like that.

Just let them be racist and all your problems will be solved, because that's how we really solve issues in our society.

Immigants, I knew it was them! Even when it was complex political and economic issues, I knew it was them.
