Senator John Fetterman once again broke with his radicalized party, this time on the border crisis as the country is being invaded by mostly unskilled and indigent illegal aliens who are seeking to enjoy the American dream at the expense of taxpayers.
The Pennsylvania Democrat has infuriated progressives with his staunch support of Israel in its war on the Hamas terrorist organization in Gaza as well as by speaking common sense about the porous southern border that the Biden regime has done virtually nothing to address.
Fetterman talked with CNN's Jake Tapper on a recent edition of "The Lead" where he spoke about his concern with the border crisis and the reluctance of his fellow Democrats to fix what has become one of the nation's greatest problems.
The senator emphasized that while he supports immigration, the current situation with the unsecured border is untenable as he answered the anchor's question on why he's been intensely criticized by the same progressives who had previously defended him.
"I don't know why it's controversial to anybody to decide that you're gonna stand with Israel in this situation. I honestly don't understand why it's controversial to say we need a secure border." "I've been very clear that was weaponized against me as Republicans in my race, that I'm very much a strong supporter of immigration, and you know, my wife's family, that's the origin story about that," Fetterman added.
"And I think two things can be true at the same time. You can be very supportive of immigration, but we also need to have a secure border." "I think about immigration is, we want to provide the American dream for any migrant but it seems very difficult when you have 300,000 people showing up, encountered at our border to do that," he said.
"We also must secure our border. The compromise undoubtedly will test the resolve of both sides of the Senate, but it is reasonable and vital that we forge one," he wrote on X, stating that he was a yes on another giveaway to the Zelensky regime.
