During a House Homeland Security Committee hearing yesterday, Representative Robert Garcia (Democrat-CA) wanted to deliver a snarky retort about the unsecure southern border, complete with graphics and talking points. Unfortunately, what followed was an exhibition in just how detached and silly the Democrats are. Representative Garcia obviously doesn’t know where the idea for a border moat with alligators came from.
Back in 2011, Barack Obama went to give a speech in El Paso, Texas, proclaiming the security of the border. Using his customary style of ridicule against any political opposition, Obama said the Republicans were likely to ask for a moat with alligators. WATCH:
.
This speech became somewhat funny, as the insecure nature of the border and thousands of illegal aliens crossing daily stood in direct contrast with the proclamations of Obama. Indeed, the “whatever it takes” meme sprang up from this speech as people said sure, get alligators, get gun turrets, get sharks with lasers in their eyes, or piranhas, or whatever… BUT, SECURE THE DAMN BORDER. Ultimately, it was the Lightbringer who was embarrassed within the pushback.
Fast forward 13 years, the border is still not secure, the border crisis is worse than ever, and Democrat Representative Garcia revises the “alligator moat” remarks thinking it was some snarky comment that originated from MAGA republicans. WATCH:
.
The issue is that the border is not secure. Fullstop. That’s the problem.
The left consistently says that Republicans have these silly demands to secure the border; to wit the smart Republican says, “ok, sure, whatever…. whatever works, do that. Even if it means sharks, lasers, alligators or piranhas – who cares?” The point being emphasized is that the border is not secure, and no amount of anything the left says delivers anything about a secure border.
Ask any leftist what secure border lockdown measure they will support, and they will say “nothing.” Because their intent is always a wide-open border.
So, why debate them? Just laugh at them, ridicule them, mock them, and move on. They are too stupid to see their own stupid nature.


Self awareness isn’t usually a leftist’s strength.
Usually they have their heads way too far up their ideological rectum to notice their own stupidity.
The Left is not stupid. They are not unaware. Reassess everything they are doing with new eyes. If they were really stupid nd unaware they would have faded from the scene by now.
They are very intentional, and they are not stupid. But rightfully they think we are and we prove this to them every single day. Think greed by stealth and you have unmasked the Democrats.
Jaye, the enemy is highly educated, well informed and funded. We score minor victories against them while the still run circles around our side.
We must reasses and always rework our strategies because they are formidable.
Our side is not represented, we have one, DT, the rest is all Uni-Party
People who vote for democrats are the stupid ones!
That’s why they rig elections! They don’t get elected! What’s hard to fathom is the Right is always trying to reach across the aisle!
They are clever and savvy however most of them are lacking in intelligence. “Clever” and “intelligent” are not synonyms.
Mamet principle – In order to continue advancing their illogical arguments modern liberals have to pretend not to know things…

The sad part is the Left thinks they are replacing the Democrat voters that turned Republican. They are allowing terrorists free reign!
Remember, they have to pretend not to know things.
“The issue is that the border is not secure. Fullstop. That’s the problem.”
Well…..That, and the influx of people invited to come to our border with the intention of crossing it. If the D.C. apparatus had not extended such a broad invitation we could peacefully exist with our southern border as open as our northern border has been for the bulk of our nations existence.
“…a broad invitation…” and then some. How about military guards hiding and protecting their new conscipts!!
WATCH: Georgia Lawmaker Captures Video of Illegal Aliens Tucked Away in Hidden Room Under Military Protection at Atlanta Airport
…A video exclusively obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation appears to show a U.S. service member guarding a room chock-full of illegal immigrants at Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International airport.
Republican state Sen. Colton Moore, who is the vice chairman of the Georgia Freedom Caucus, took the video Tuesday night and told the DCNF that he learned of the hidden room full of migrants through a “whistleblower” at Atlanta’s airport, who noticed an influx of illegal migrants coming through the facility in recent months. In the video, there appears to be a uniformed soldier guarding a room full of migrants and volunteers with a group called Team Libertad, which boasts of helping migrants travel on its social media accounts.
“We’re all getting them flights to where they need to be,” a man who identified himself as a volunteer from Team Libertad says in the video. “These are just recently documented travelers getting released from ICE [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] getting to where they need to be.”…

“……….a man who identified himself as a volunteer from Team Libertad says in the video.”
Would you care to venture a guess as to how many of that man’s new found friends will be permanently residing in HIS basement?………………..Yeah, I thought so…..
Until they’re “called up”
en masse by Uncle ScAM
to start murdering Americans.
State senator Colton Moore is a great asset to the state of Ga. Been following him ( as a Ga resident) He’s young and MAGA.
The “do gooders” need to pay a steep price!
What jumped out at me: “…getting them to where they need to be.”.
Some by the plane load!
The most consistent narrative of the left is truth doesn’t matter. What matters is votes. And those votes will be obtained by any means.
Want to see leftists heads explode, recommend no limit hunting tags issued to American citizens in the border states for anything crossing the border illegally
Just prior to their explosion, which label will be shouted at you first; “gun nut” or “racist“?
They’d likely be speechless for a change
Except it’s not “racist” when they’re coming from 90% of the countries from around the world
No limit for varmint.
Ballots matter, votes do not
These border crossers ain’t coming to vote, they’re gonna shoot to kill!
Just another endless war.
And much more costly. We are just waiting for that inevitable terrorist attack to cost thousands of lives, and it will happen.
When their ignorance is placed into the CONgressional record, it must be refuted.
Otherwise, I’m for nonstop pointing & laughing, mockery & ridicule.
You can learn a lot from a dummy!
Robert Garcia shows contempt for American Taxpayers.
His silly performance is an insult to We the People.
He may have had no choice when he was given his Super Suggestion Vote Memo.
Personally, I’ve always liked the gator idea.
At least the jet, although should be a drone, is on the Mexico side, because that’s where we need to take it- into Mexico since their government is allowing them to cross unhindered, and with support from the cartels.
He’s safe he’s from. California. Unfortunately for him most of the country knows his party has an open door policy to illegals and its destroying communities nationwide.
Let Garcia chortle away…..Trump will shut him up in 2025.
Here’s the rest of the story.
MAGA loved it and ridiculed him unmercifully.

Some fat alligators will no longer be on the endangered species list and eco warriors worldwide will rejoice.
I’ll take the moat with alligators.
What’s wrong with a nice big minefield?
What’s wrong? Some day soon, hopefully, they will no longer be needed. Hard to repurpose an old landmine into a nice pair of boots.
It gets a bit messy. With gators, ya normally get a clean plate club member! No left-overs!
The Rio Grande has them…
Sharks with frikkin’ laser beams !!
The thing that always amazes me about genuinely stupid people is that they honestly think everyone else is as stupid as they are.
Just blows my mind how stupid people are really as stupid as they are.
“So, why debate them? Just laugh at them, ridicule them, mock them, and move on. They are too stupid to see their own stupid nature.”
I have never made but one prayer to God, a very short one: ‘O Lord, make my enemies ridiculous.’ And the Lord granted my prayer.

Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals;
#5) “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon. There is no defense. It is almost impossible to counterattack ridicule. Also it infuriates the opposition, who then react to your advantage.”
I knew I had never heard Trump call for a mote with alligators – it was not him that called to electrify the fence, either – I forget who that was, but it wasn’t Trump.
Well, we actually have alligators down here in the RGV. They used to be up as far north as Laredo (I don’t know if this is still the case since I don’t stomp that area of the river). They aren’t quite as big as the Florida variety but they can kill you just as easily.

‘Politicians are not born; they are excreted.’

A moat with alligators.
The Rio Grande *IS* a moat with alligators *already*.
I didn’t see him being refuted. People will take this as gospel and start repeating it. CNN, MSDNC you name it. So infuriating they get away with this crap.
I know we laugh at it here but sometimes I wonder if the Treehouse isn’t just an echochamber. We rant and it feels good but what changes.
OK I’ll behave and go sit in the corner.
I think of that every morning, WARROOM plays an opening of Joe Scarborough STILL claiming that Trump supporters killed four policemen on January 6, 2021. Everyone knows by now that that’s not true. How can he still be claiming that?
Suddenly The News Gatekeepers Are The News
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/suddenly-news-gatekeepers-are-news
Opps…hit post comment without this from “Suddenly The News Gatekeepers Are The News”:
…You don’t have to take my word for it. Just turn on “Morning Joe” any weekday from 6 to 10 a.m. Eastern Time and watch Joe Scarborough distort reality in a rear-guard action to protect the nation from a second Trump presidency. According to Scarborough, Trump desperately wants the economy to crash. According to Scarborough, Trump wants the border to stay open because it’s good politics. According to Scarborough, Trump wants to shoot his enemies on the street. And just in case you thought Joe might be making all this up, there is a panel of like-thinking leftists on the MSNBC set nodding their heads in unison and assuring Joe he’s quite the savant.
But he isn’t. He is a Deep State apparatchik who is the poster boy for the Gatekeepers. He will say anything to protect the nation from Donald Trump because he knows that Trump speaks for millions of people who are sick and tired of being told that their values, their principles, their patriotism are a danger to the country. Yes, Scarborough goes after Trump directly, but he also attacks Trump voters, as he did on Jan. 25. “If you take a step back, just looking at this politically, I just am baffled by just how stupid – baffled, baffled every day by how stupid Republicans are,” Scarborough said.
This “say-anything, fact-check-nothing” approach to bashing Trump may be the Gatekeepers’ worst nightmare as the 2024 election approaches. Because it will inflame the MAGA base to rise up and vote in record numbers to protect Trump from the attacks against him. The latest fake report is that Trump is trying to stop the toughest border security bill in history, but what “Morning Joe” and the Democrats won’t tell you is that there is no bill. The text of the supposed bill was never released during this tumult of criticism. We were just supposed to believe the Gatekeepers and shut up about it…
CUT THE CORD
I like the moat with crocodile’s in it. Alligators are not so much man eaters as the big guys are!
The electric fence would be a good idea, too.
Electric Fence by all that free
solar energy down there in the South.
*animal=safe* solar panels
Let’s be honest, neither party wants to close the border. They only like to act like they are trying to do something when it’s an election year.
😅😂🤣😂😅
Meanwhile, the Take Back the Border truck convoy is on the move to Eagle Pass, TX … or is it, Aslan is on the move? And the cool thing is, I remember some of the live streamers from the Canadian Trucker Freedom Convoy. So Canadians are standing … and driving … together with America, literally. And many of these in the Convoy are also Prayer Warriors. It’s a beautiful thing. 🙂
The left is so stupid they have been successfully beating us over the head for 40 years.
Even 2011-Obama didn’t dare to do what he is doing today through his Disposable Pedophile Puppet.
He has declared War on America.
Selah.
Psalm 37:
14 The wicked have drawn out the sword
and have bent their bow,
to cast down the poor and needy,
and to slay those on the upright path.
15 Their sword will enter into their own heart,
and their bows will be broken.
Who did he sleep with at the orgy that they made him post this in Congress?
Fang fang!
Once, my Dad ran over a gator while crossing Alligator Alley at night, and it got wedged up under his car. While he was standing there on the roadside scratching his head and trying to figure out what to do, a trucker pulled up and offered assistance. He wrapped a chain around the critter’s tail and had that thing out of there in a jiffy. The trucker asked my Dad if he wanted it. My Dad recoiled in horror, “What am I going to do with an alligator carcass?” The trucker cackled with glee and rubbed his hands together. “Great! I’ve been needing a new pair of boots!” And off he went into the night with his prize.
That lead alligator in the photo bears a resemblance to Mayorkas, and I was thinking what a fine pair of boots it would make….
Bull Sharks, piranhas and fresh water crocodiles. All three can live in fresh water. Advertise in Mexico what now resides in Rio Grande.
They think that picture will embarrass us. But I look at it and think, “Yes! That’s the idea!”
Answer :
E-all of the above
I think Maligators would work nicely. Don’t you?
This is one of those existential threats that reminds me of the advice, “Never interrupt the enemy when his is making a mistake.”
Stupid Democrats are the gift that keeps on giving. It’s just a shame there isn’t more backbone (more accurately: loyalty) on the GOP side.
He missed the sharks with freaking lasers.
And he missed the Very Angry Sea Bass too.
Did he get that the electricity for the fence was considered and solar was allowed for all the greenies. Those panels can generate hot dead zones that wipe out the wildlife, just like their wind turbines.
We just want to secure the borders.
No fences needed, just law and legal immigration, remove all illegals.
You might think a border security idea is silly or impractical but you can’t argue that machine gun posts firing at invaders isn’t effective.
On the bright side……at least it was acknowledged there is a border.
Moron
What an embarrassment for this Congressman to say Trump suggested the moat with alligators ..obviously he doesn’t read nor listen to any of what Obama has said in the past..he reinvents conversations…how in the hell did this guy get elected to Congress? Time get rid him and all the other story fabricators
We create great big ole’ honey pots for the bears. Cash jobs, medical care, free education, housing assistance, get out of jail free cards, no taxes, rechargeable debit cards, and free cellphones with directions to the nearest honey pot. We organize their charter buses and airlines, relocation assistance, social services, translators, lawyers and guaranteed citizenships for their cubs. We find them cozy caves.
Then we tear holes in our our fences. We cry out about them overrunning our property and homes. Then we send out bear herders. Then we wring our hands about the bears taking over.
Yet, if we’d just take away the honey pots, the bears would go home.
How do these people look themselves in the mirror and think they’re doing anything good for this country. What a bunch of idiots.
All I want is the immigration LAWS ENFORCED …. What’s wrong with enforcing existing laws .. Someone please explain to my why the current laws are not enforced … What exactly is so egregious about our immigration laws that some people think these laws should be ignored ..?
Political outcomes are not logical ……
Unless you track the money.

Why are clowns always bald?

Leftists will believe even this ridiculous bs, just as they think Sarah Palin said she could see Russia from her house (it was Tina Fey on SNL). They’re called libtards for a reason.
He should be sued for defamation. He is a disgusting pig.
That’s a terrible offense to pigs but they will never see or hear it.
You know, these Democrats are so ridiculously un-creative.
President Trump is:
a. Hitler
b. White Supremacist
c. Will destroy “democracy”
d. Racist, xenophobic
e. Misogynistic, opposes women’s body autonomy
f. A dictator, authoritarian
It’s seems to be because they either a) can’t think of anything else b) they don’t think people will understand if they use big words or other examples. So, either they are ignorant or they disparage the people of this country as being ignorant – or both.
At this point, the repetition is ridiculous and easy to ignore.
A harsh pushback from GOP Reps about “Trump is Hitler” was not shown in this video other than the useless “clarification” of the wording.
Rep Pfluger’s sad and regretful opening tone regarding the conducting of the Mayorkas Impeachment process is the exact opposite to the bloodthirsty hateful and BOGUS impeachments of P Trump led by rabid no holds barred Democrats. This demonstrates that many Republicans are not really serious about their efforts but they’ll put on a show until the Senate rejects it–if it gets that far. Puppet Mayorkas is severely damaging America and it has led to untold deaths and misery which sad, regretful Pfluger finally mentions for political points.
Wake up. The Democrats are merciless and determined. Reconciliation is not in their vocabulary unless it’s about removing a reconciliation statue in Arlington that has a “woman holding a laurel wreath, a plow stock and a pruning hook, with a biblical inscription at her feet that says: “They have beat their swords into plough-shares and their spears into pruning hooks.”
They could have removed the Mammy and the alleged slave at the bottom as a “compromise” to keep the statue but that is another word not in their lefty handbooks.
They want unlimited power for as long as they live. They will slander and defame and sue or indict at every opportunity. They will slay their political enemy in every way possible.
Release the A-10 Warthogs.
Huey Cobras are almost as effective! Both are efficient!
Garcia and the rest of the Dems have at least one thing really going for them. Thay have brilliant graphics folks! (major sarc!)
Robert Garcia is the former mayor of Long Beach, CA. ( where I live). It was a stepping stone to where he is now.
I have to say, I’m glad he’s no longer here to do more damage. Our city streets are a mess with pot holes everywhere. His goal was to have us all riding bicycles. Lots of $$ spent on eliminating car lanes to make way for bike lanes and bollards only to see that they’re rarely used.
This guy has completely bought in to the green new deal b.s.
There might be a Democrat Party they just would never get elected.
I love saying this, all DemonRats are pathetic pathological liars thief’s murders and satan worshipers. And I mean every single registered DemonRat.
No one in their right mind would be a DemonRat and the reason people say there is not enough room in hell is because of the DemonRats.
The DemonRats where on the side of the Brits. The DemonRats where the ones for slavery in the civil war. The DemonRats started the KKK. The DemonRats got us involved in world war 1/2 Korea Vietnam and now along with the RhinoRats have kept us fighting endlessly. The DemonRat and their RhinoRat buddies have installed a Mental case in as president.
Time for We The People to but and end to the DemonRhinoRat Party.
That would be great to have a moat with alligators! Would democrats approve it? No, so it’s their fault!!!
Silly Democrats always posting last year’s plans. They just can’t keep up 😉
This years Border Guardian v.2024 has Phalanx turrets mounted every 200 yards…a 1/2 mile wide 500 yard deep moat with clones of Godzilla in it, and neutron bomb launchers mounted on overhead A10s for those massed groups charging towards the border. /s
