A few weeks ago, Republicans were talking incessantly about the “Biden border crisis.” So now that the border is getting under control, will they change their tune? Of course not. Here are how thought leaders are sizing up the situation: bit.ly/3o6omZO 
"The ‘border crisis’ narrative was always overblown. 25,000 kids fleeing violence in Central America and seeking safety in a nation that describes itself as a beacon of hope is not a crisis." - @FrankSharry
"Stephen Miller and his cronies set up the narrative. The right-wing media ecosystem pumped it up. And the too many in the mainstream media fell for it." - @FrankSharry
"The situation at our southern border is manageable. The most powerful nation in the world can handle kids fleeing for their lives in a safe, humane and orderly way." - @FrankSharry
"The pro-immigrant party in the most powerful nation in the world can and should use its majority to enact legislation that puts Dreamers, TPS holders, farm workers and other essential workers on pathways to citizenship - this year." - @FrankSharry
"GOP lawmakers under the sway of the former guy will undoubtedly oppose any serious measure to pass legalization. But their racism and xenophobia are a part of the reason they lost the last few elections." - @FrankSharry
"The multiracial majority of Americans elected Democrats to go big and deliver results. The only risk to Democrats is if they don’t." - @FrankSharry
