Rep. Pramila Jayapal Calls for US to Accept Palestinian Refugees

This spring, CBS News reported that the Biden administration was considering taking in Palestinian refugees and giving them a path to citizenship. Curiously, we haven’t heard much more about that program since CBS News reported on it.

Apparently, though, the idea didn’t die against the massive backlash. The Hill reports that almost 70 Democrats are all for it, including Rep. Pramia Jayapal, whom we last saw chuckling with MSNBC’s Joy Reid over the Republicans’ “fear-mongering” campaign after a 13-year-old was raped by an illegal immigrant. This is the same Jayapal who went on CNN in December to talk about Hamas terrorists raping Israeli women on October 7 and said rape “happens in war … however, we have to be balanced about bringing in the outrages against Palestinians.”

Far too many civilians in Gaza — many of whom have strong ties to the United States — are facing unfathomable violence, destruction, and starvation.

That is why I’m calling on the administration to ensure that people with family here are able to enter the country as refugees. pic.twitter.com/j5nsDAFwyU

How about no. Why import people who’ve been brainwashed since birth that Jews should be eliminated from the planet?

Fuck no

Have you seen Egypt’s border wall? You want razor wire, they’ve got razor wire.

That thin red patch is Israel. All the green is Arab. Not one of them want Palestinians. Jordan is adamant to never let any more in again after they did so to much damage to their own country. Egypt has a HUGE wall between it and Gaza. Why on earth would the USA take them in? pic.twitter.com/2JjCS6qsyb

We need to shut down immigration for a generation and absorb and assimilate the immigrants who have arrived and decide what kind of country we want to BE going forward.

Immigration to America is a privilege, not a right, to be granted or rescinded at the pleasure of the People.

Well, if they were willing to give up jihad and you weren’t really doing this to further destabilize our American culture, I would say, “No. They brought it upon themselves.”

There are 22 Arab nations. They haven’t taken in a single Gazan. Why is that?

Why not insist they go to Arab nations where they will be embraced and have similar cultural values and traditions? Wouldn’t that be a better way to address this travesty?

We’re only just now cleaning out the antisemites from Congress … we certainly don’t need to import more.
