    So far.. Fox is the only “real” news agency to pick this story up.. several do report it but as overblown..

    The link has a quote from thr red mayor of Aurora and the blue mayor of Denver, at a joint press conference, stating that it is overblown..


    The border and immigration is “chum” for a segment of our “news/entertainment” media.. Red number go much lower and the reports will have the gangs led and funded by Hunter Biden..

    But.. IMHO.. asylum seekers get one criminal violation and they win a trip home..

    Well here's some more chum regarding this imagined situation. And you're free to disregard the source as entertainment, lying, terrible journalist any way you want.
    And it shouldn't be surprising to you that the legacy media is not reporting this. It doesn't follow the Democratic strategy for winning the election. And of course the Denver Post is one of many Fox News type organizations that are completely wedded to the left instead of the right. At this point I'm bowing out of this one. I stand by my original post.

    Yeah... I'm perfectly capable of doing that myself and need no help.

    Man, this is a messy one. It's entirely possible both sides are either dead wrong or are making things up as they go along.

    Personally, situations like this one make me VERY pleased I'm retired.

    This story increasingly unravels---including a retraction by the mayor (who is a trumper).

    Nothing to see here folks, but a bunch of rino BS

    For anyone who might want to take another look at this trumpian tale---poke here. That is only one of many sources rolling this fabrication up in a MAGA BS wrapper.

    Added in edit:

    Still, the clip, taken by a resident and played on endless loops on Fox News Channel and the website of The New York Post, metastasized into grandiose stories of whole buildings, whole sections of town and, in Mr. Trump’s telling, the whole city of Aurora being taken over by migrants carrying weapons of war.

    ”And getting them out will be a bloody story,” Mr. Trump said of Aurora at a rally in Mosinee, Wis., last Saturday, adding that it was “not going to be easy, but we’ll do it.”

    Mr. Coffman (the mayor) and Ms. Jurinsky (City Copuncil person) have both since backtracked.

    “The overstated claims fueled by social media and through select news organizations are simply not true,” they wrote in a joint statement released Wednesday that appeared aimed at pushing back on Mr. Trump’s debate comments.
    And how often does that happen?
