Former President Trump’s running mate, Sen. JD Vance, R-Ohio, is making headlines for his scathing criticism of Vice President Kamala Harris. Vance accused Harris of prioritizing a letter to trans activist Dylan Mulvaney over reaching out to the family of murdered Georgia student Laken Riley.
In a post on social media, Vance expressed his disbelief at Harris’s actions, stating, “Border Czar Kamala Harris found the time to write a letter to Dylan Mulvaney, yet hasn’t found any time to say even a single word about Laken Riley. I find it very weird that Kamala is so cold and heartless about the American kids dying because of her open border policies.”
The controversy stems from a screenshot shared by Mulvaney on Instagram, where Harris expressed support for the LGBTQI+ community and praised the activist for breaking barriers. This gesture has sparked outrage among critics who argue that Harris should prioritize addressing the concerns of American families affected by violence.
The case of Laken Riley, a 22-year-old student murdered on the University of Georgia campus, has become a focal point in the debate. Jose Antonio Ibarra, an illegal migrant from Venezuela, was charged with Riley’s murder, further fueling the discussion on border security and immigration policies.
Critics, including Donald Trump Jr., have condemned Harris for allegedly neglecting American victims of violence caused by illegal immigrants. The controversy surrounding Harris’s visit to Houston, where she chose to attend a teacher’s convention over meeting with the parents of 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray, who was raped and murdered by migrants, has only added fuel to the fire.
As the debate intensifies, Harris’s actions and priorities continue to be scrutinized, with calls for accountability and a focus on addressing the concerns of American families affected by violence. The controversy surrounding Harris’s actions highlights the ongoing debate on border security and immigration policies in the United States.
