As the Trump administration plays tough about a migrant caravan purportedly heading toward the U.S.-Mexico border, former GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene exposed the truth: The GOP frequently uses these stories to rile up voters before elections.
On Sunday, the Department of Homeland Security posted a montage of former Philadelphia Eagles safety Brian Dawkins tackling other players in response to a post alleging a “huge migrant caravan headed towards the US southern border.”
The DHS account also posted a photo of Dawkins captioned, “The border is closed.”
In response, the NFL requested DHS to remove the video.
“We have not seen a caravan headed to the U.S. southern border in several years, why now?” Greene wrote on X. “Oh yeah, there is an election coming and the GOP needs to scare you into voting because nothing else is working.”
