Vice President Kamala Harris visited the U.S.-Mexico border in Arizona on Friday and pushed for new restrictions on asylum seekers.

Vice President Kamala Harris: “Those who cross our borders unlawfully will be apprehended and removed and barred from reentering for five years. We will pursue more severe criminal charges against repeat violators. And if someone does not make an asylum request at a legal point of entry and instead crosses our border unlawfully, they will be barred from receiving asylum.”

Meanwhile, Donald Trump is escalating his anti-immigrant rhetoric, describing immigrants as animals during a campaign rally in Wisconsin.

Donald Trump: “They don’t commit crimes like us. No, no. They make our criminals look like babies. These are stone-cold killers. They’ll walk into your kitchen. They’ll cut your throat.”

During the same speech, he said Joe Biden became mentally impaired and that Kamala was born mentally impaired. Meanwhile, Senator JD Vance and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz are preparing for Tuesday’s vice-presidential debate here in New York.
