Troy Nehls, a representative from Texas, was on Fox Bussiness when he launched a verbal attack on White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre and Vice President Kamala Harris.
New York report that prompted Nehls’ criticism
A report said that a New York school was closed to house migrants, and Fox Business Network’s host Maria Bartiromo asked Nehls about it while playing a clip from the White House press briefing. The clip showed Jean-Pierre saying, “That is something that New York City needs two answers to,” and adding, “As it relates to migrants and what’s happening at the border, look, the president has taken this issue very seriously.”
Nehls goes in full-blown attack
“I can’t listen to that nutjob. I can’t believe anything she says,” Nehls said and continued, “Listen, because Joe Biden puts the American people last. He puts us last. His priorities, his long-term goal, and strategies are to let as many people in this country as possible during his term because eventually, they’re going to do everything they can, the Democrats, to offer citizenship to everybody.”
Texan has a new book
The Texas Republican stated, “Then it’s one-party rule forever.” He then turned to his new book, “I highlight this in my new book, just released, Borderless by Design.”
Stepping into the conspiracy theory area
Nehls continued, “It lays out in detail exactly why this administration has put the American people last, allowing thousands of people, millions of people, into our southern border. It’s a long-term goal and strategy.”
“It’s all clear”
Nehls had more to add, “Eventually, citizenship, even though 10% of them can’t even get a legitimate asylum claim, and eventually they’re all Democrat voters. It’s clear.”
Enter attacks on VP Harris
Bartiromo asked the Republican lawmaker what VP Kamala Harris should do, and Nehls shared, “Well, she’s not going to do anything. I think they just put her out there to make it look like she’s actually worth something. She isn’t worth anything.”
Dark conclusion
Nehls added, “They’ve kind of put her in the basement if you haven’t noticed recently. Yeah, because I think she embarrasses herself and the American people, so they’ve kind of hid her.”
Even the host was surprised
Many noticed Bartiromo was shocked after Nehls called the White House Press Secretary a “nut job.” She noticeably raised eyebrows in surprise. She was seemingly surprised again after Nehls’s statement about VP Harris.
Nehls also slammed Fani Willis
The Texas GOP representative wrote on X, “Phony Fani Willis is obviously not too bright. She needed help from the SHAM Jan. 6 Committee to target President Trump. Phony Fani is an embarrassment to the judiciary.”
Nehls on Biden’s potential impeachment
Nehls, dubbed one of Trump’s most vocal House supporters, told USA Today how Biden’s impeachment would give Trump “a little bit of ammo to fire back.” This and many other statements earned him the nickname “the King of Saying the Quiet Part Loud.”
Echoing Trump
The former president told Megyn Kelly in September 2023, “They did it to me. And had they not done it to me, I think, and nobody officially said this, but I think had they not done it to me … perhaps you wouldn’t have it being done to them.”
“Donald J. Trump 2024 baby”
In a video by Rolling Stone, Nehls was asked what he hopes to gain from the impeachment inquiry. Nehls responded, “All I can say is Donald J. Trump 2024 baby.”
“Pretty damaging”
Before George Santos was officially expelled, Nehls said the Ethics Committee’s findings appeared “pretty damaging.” Yet, he added, “Why would we want to expel a guy … [when] we’ve got a three-seat, four-seat majority? What are we doing?”
