The nitpickers, who style themselves as fact-checkers at PolitiFact and USA Today, have rushed to Vice President Kamala Harris’s defense by slapping “false” labels on those who seek to label her as the Biden Administration’s “border czar” in order to claim that her failure to stem illegal immigration proves she is unqualified to be president.
On Wednesday, PolitiFact’s Maria Ramirez Uribe gave the Republican National Committee a “mostly-false” rating.
For Uribe, calling Harris the border czar is wrong because “Biden didn’t put Harris in charge of overseeing border security.” Rather, he “said Harris would lead U.S. diplomatic efforts and work with officials in Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador and

LOL. They don't even pretend credibility any more.
Also, in case you missed it, we've always been at war with Eastasia. Saw it on Snopes and Reuters and AP.

"Fact checkers" are a fact free propaganda zone. They lie all the time. It's their job, and the name is just a smoke screen.

Don't listen to propagandist 'fact-checkers'.
Our border czar was whomever coordinated all the human trafficking coming over the southern border.
Our government made the border what it is today.

What a load of horse apples. You don't have to discuss the defense of your borders with any country, especially third world dictators. All they needed was one universal message, cross our border illegally and you will be shot. This policy, however, only applies if you really want to defend your borders. Biden, Harris and the sanctuary cities laid out a big welcome mat.

It was the term that the Dems used in their news releases at the time.

"FactCheck.org" was a sufficient reason for me to sever, for all time, my association with the Tampa Bay Times (ne The St. Petersburg Times). They're Donk functionaries who all ought to be unemployed in the journalism business forever because they're liars. Never trust a liar.

This time the fact checkers are correct. She did nothing to indicate she ever had anything to do with the border.

So, need to play by their twisted rules and use the rhetoric that "she was tasked with leading the United States' efforts to manage the border situation with our foreign neighbors".
Which she failed at and was not able to do anything impactful in over 3 years.
Otherwise, let her give 3-5 examples of when she did anything of substance.

Rubbish, Biden said she was the border czar in charge of the border.
Kamala, upon realizing that she would likely fail, redefined the job as a "root cause" czar.

"Biden didn’t put Harris in charge of overseeing border security.” Rather, he “said Harris would lead U.S. diplomatic efforts and work with officials in Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador..."
Actually, Biden put her in charge of the border and border security, but it was Harris who decided that she would do the diplomatic effort and not be in charge of border security. Ths fact checker is a liar.

Biden tasks Harris with tackling migrant influx on US-Mexico border
24 March 2021 BBC
US President Joe Biden has put Vice-President Kamala Harris in charge of controlling migration at the southern border following a big influx of new arrivals.
Announcing Ms Harris's appointment as his immigration czar, Mr Biden told reporters and officials at the White House: "She's the most qualified person to do it, to lead our efforts with Mexico and the Northern Triangle [Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador], and the countries that are going to need help in stemming the movement of so many folks - stemming the migration to our southern border".

So all those files on the internet containing videos of the MSM calling her the border czar are deep fakes?

BS or BM. Bunch of malarkey. I remember reading about this back in 2021 because of the title; I found the use of the word "czar" to be different. Just seems like a title you would find in a dynasty.
Lie after lie after lie. Sickening.
