Video: Blumenthal: Republicans Are ‘Complicit in All These Shootings’

Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) said Tuesday on CNN’s “OutFront” that Republican lawmakers were “complicit” in all the mass shootings that take place in the United States, given their opposition to gun legislation. Blumenthal said, “In Boulder, that shooter is a deeply disturbed man who became a mass killer because he had an assault weapon that can kill people with the efficiency and speed meant for the battlefield. So guns make all these problems more fatally and deadly, especially for domestic violence victims who then can be killed, five times more likely to be killed in those situations. That’s why we need to make sure we adopt these common-sense measures.”

Anchor Dana Bash asked, “I know you’ve been working on the issues for decades. Even the DREAM Act, which has pretty bipartisan support, could you get that done right given the fact that Republicans are saying I’m not doing anything until what is going on at the border is fixed right now?”

DHS Chief Mayorkas: Border Crisis Underway Because Trump ‘Dismantled’ Entire Immigration System

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas blamed former President Donald Trump on Sunday’s “State of the Union” on CNN for the situation at the U.S.-Mexico border. Anchor Dana Bash asked, “The Biden administration, though, is, as you mentioned, now allowing unaccompanied children into the U.S., different from the Trump administration. Clearly, you don’t have the infrastructure to handle this many children right now. As I mentioned, more than 600 children have been in Border Protection custody for more than ten days, far longer than is acceptable and allowed by law. That’s three days. So, did you change the policy too quickly without having the infrastructure in place to take care of these children?”

Lauren Boebert: Democrats Seek to Use Language to Control the Narrative, Shape Perception

Democrats seek to use language to control the narrative and shape perception — something they have done in pushing their radical proposals, from H.R. 1 to the Equality Act — Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) warned during an exclusive interview with Breitbart News on Saturday. Appearing at CPAC, Boebert spoke about the Democrats’ radical policy proposals — from the Equality Act, which passed in the House last week, to H.R. 1, which passed in the House Wednesday evening. At the root of these proposals is the Democrats’ grander attempt, she said, to use language to control the narrative and shape perception.

I would love to hear Dr. Fauci. Nobody is talking about what’s going on on the southwest border when it comes to the health pandemic in this country. They are not testing them. They’re being released without being tested into communities. And then you look at the public safety aspect of this. It’s upsetting. It’s almost like we’re not part of this country, which is very upsetting.”

Failed Georgia Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams said Monday on CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360” that Democrats were “at war” with state Republicans lawmakers forwarding bills addressing voting and members of Congress who do not support the Democrats voting legislation. Abrams said, “We are seeing it play out in the most grotesque way possible because across the country, in 40 legislative bodies, we are watching attempts to roll back the right to vote. Because to put it simply, Republicans believe too many people voted. They believe too many eligible voters chose other than their candidates, and because of that, they’re going to be punished by being denied the right to vote.

Stefanik: Garland ‘Not Fit to Be’ AG over Cuomo Answer, ‘He’s Not Reading the Basic News’

On Monday’s broadcast of “Fox News Primetime,” Rep.

Andrew Cuomo (D) shows “he’s not reading the basic news.” Stefanik said, “My response is he is not fit to be the attorney general because he’s not reading the basic news. If he hasn’t read The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal for the past month, that’s on him. He — as the American people are aware, this is a serious corruption scandal at the highest levels of New York State government. We need a much clearer response from the nominee to be attorney general, making sure that there is an independent, apolitical, fair investigation.”

President Joe Biden said during a CNN town hall on Tuesday that former military and former police officers were fueling the “growth of white supremacy.” Biden said, “I got involved in politics, to begin with because of civil rights and opposition to white supremacist, the Ku Klux Klan and the most dangerous people on America continue to exist. That is the greatest threat of terror in America, domestic terror. So I would make sure my Justice Department and the Civil Rights Division is focused heavily on those very folks.

You see what’s happening the studies that are beginning to be done, maybe at your university as well, about the impact of former military, former police officers on the growth of white supremacy in some of these groups.”

Watch: MSNBC’s Wallace Cuts Away from Kevin McCarthy — ‘What You Are Watching Now Is Not True’

MSNBC anchor Nicolle Wallace cut away from House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy’s (R-CA) floor remarks on Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) Thursday on her show “Deadline” saying, “what you are watching right now isn’t true.” From the House floor, McCarthy said, “They rushed impeachment through without a shred of due process just like today. Reducing this tool from the highest constitutional remedy to just another opportunity to fund raise and go on TV. Now they are declaring the majority has veto power over the minorities members selection for committee. We reviewed this with the parliamentarian. Never before in the history of this House has the majority abused its power in this way. Never in the entire history of this House have they ever abused the power in this way. But it is clear that Speaker Pelosi’s caucus think differently. They are blinded by partisanship and politics.

Schweizer: Biden Isn’t Concerned about How Trading on Family Name Is Corrupt, ‘Business as Usual’

On Friday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Hannity,” Breitbart News senior contributor Peter Schweizer reacted to reports that President Joe Biden admonished his brother, Frank, for touting his relationship with the president in an ad by saying that it appears as though Biden is attempting to appear concerned about behavior the Biden family has engaged in for a long time and that Biden’s real concern is how it might impact the Biden family. Schweizer said, “I think the recent report about Joe admonishing his brother, two things stand out, Sean. First of all, it seems kind of pre-canned. It’s almost like they’re trying to leak the fact that Joe is concerned about this, even though the family’s been doing this for decades. But second of all, notice what Joe Biden actually tells his brother. What he says is, watch what you’re doing, you don’t want to get hurt.
