Sen. Tammy Baldwin, D-Wis., finds herself in hot water over her past support of federal funding for sanctuary cities as she gears up for a nail-biting re-election battle this November. It seems the good senator has been playing a game of “Hide and Seek” with Wisconsin’s safety!
Baldwin’s Sanctuary City Shenanigans
“Senator Tammy Baldwin voted nine times to support federal funding for sanctuary cities,” trumpets a new ad from One Nation, a group that’s as cozy with Minority Leader Mitch McConnell as a bear in hibernation. The ad shines a spotlight on Baldwin’s repeated votes against measures that would have cut off the money spigot to cities with sanctuary policies. It’s like she’s handing out “Get Out of Jail Free” cards to cities that coddle illegal immigrants!
One Nation’s new ad is part of a whopping $7.5 million statewide advocacy blitz in Wisconsin, a state so swing-y it could give Tarzan a run for his money. This Badger State bonanza could be the key to unlocking both the presidential palace and the Senate throne room. It’s all part of One Nation’s $88 million nationwide shopping spree that kicked off in April – talk about splurging on political fashion!
Baldwin’s Amnesty Ambitions
But wait, there’s more! The video takes Baldwin to task for voting to give amnesty to 11 million illegal immigrants, including those with rap sheets longer than a CVS receipt. They even bring up a stomach-turning incident involving an illegal immigrant nabbed for multiple assaults, including getting handsy with a 13-year-old girl. Yikes! Is this the Wisconsin way, Senator Baldwin?
The ad wraps up with a zinger: “Tell Senator Tammy Baldwin to stop protecting illegal immigrants and start protecting Wisconsin.” Now there’s a novel idea!
Baldwin’s Silent Treatment
When Fox News Digital reached out for comment, Baldwin’s campaign was quieter than a mime convention. Maybe they’re too busy practicing their “sanctuary city shuffle” to pick up the phone?
One Nation CEO Drops Truth Bombs
One Nation’s big cheese, Steven Law, didn’t pull any punches: “Senator Tammy Baldwin had nine chances to make Wisconsin safer by opposing federal funding for sanctuary cities. Instead, Senator Baldwin voted to make Wisconsin communities less safe.” Ouch! That’s gotta sting more than a Wisconsin winter!
Baldwin’s Mayorkas Misadventure
Earlier this year, Baldwin joined her Democrat pals in giving Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas a “Get Out of Impeachment Free” card. Baldwin claimed, “Impeachment is a sacred and solemn duty of Congress… Unfortunately, what we had in front of us today entirely failed to meet that high standard, lacked evidence, and was just an attempt to score cheap political points.” Talk about the pot calling the kettle black! Maybe Baldwin should take a look at the border crisis scorecard before accusing others of playing politics.
Baldwin’s Border Bill Blunder
Baldwin threw her weight behind a border security bill that was cooked up by a political three-ring circus (a Republican, a Democrat, and an independent senator walk into a bar…). Shockingly, it failed to win over the GOP. This led Baldwin and her Democrat buddies to point fingers at Republicans for not solving the border crisis. It’s like blaming the fire department for not putting out a fire you started!
Trump’s Border Triumph vs. Biden’s Border Blunders
While we’re on the topic of border security, let’s take a stroll down memory lane to the Trump era. Remember when we had a president who actually cared about securing our borders? Under President Trump’s watch, we saw:
- Over 450 miles of new border wall constructed
- Illegal border crossings plummeted by over 87% where the wall was constructed
- Ended “catch-and-release” policies
- Signed safe third country agreements with Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras
Fast forward to the Biden-Harris administration, and what do we have? A border crisis so out of control it makes a three-ring circus look organized! Vice President Kamala Harris, our illustrious “Border Czar,” has been about as effective as a chocolate teapot. Her greatest hits include:
- “The border is secure” – Said while illegal crossings hit record highs
- “We’ve been to the border” – When she hadn’t actually been there
- “Do not come” – Her groundbreaking strategy to deter illegal immigration
It’s like watching a bad comedy sketch, except the joke’s on American citizens and legal immigrants!
The Numbers Game
According to a July Fox News Poll, Baldwin is leading Republican businessman Eric Hovde 54-43%. But let’s not forget, polls are about as reliable as a weather forecast in Wisconsin – you never know when things might take a sudden turn!
| Candidate | Poll Result |
|---|---|
| Tammy Baldwin (D) | 54% |
| Eric Hovde (R) | 43% |
Hovde clinched the GOP nomination on Tuesday night, setting the stage for what promises to be a political showdown of epic proportions. Will Wisconsin voters see through Baldwin’s sanctuary city smoke screen, or will they give her another term to perfect her “illegal immigrant shuffle”?
As we gear up for the 2024 political rodeo, one thing’s for sure: Wisconsin’s Senate race is shaping up to be more entertaining than a cheese-rolling contest at the state fair. Stay tuned, folks – this is one show you won’t want to miss!
