Joe and Jill Biden visited Uvalde, Texas Sunday to pay respects to the victims, families and first responders of Tuesday’s mass shooting at Robb Elementary School that killed 19 children and two teachers. The gunman, 18-year-old Uvalde resident Salvador Ramos was killed by fed up Border Patrol agents who ignored stand down orders after an hour long delay. (The Justice Department announced Sunday it is opening an investigation into the police response.)

There are ongoing negotiations among a bipartisan group of Senators on gun control measures in the wake of Tuesday’s school massacre, with a goal of a compromise deal by June 6. The White House said this week Biden is staying out of the negotiations. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has given his blessing to lead GOP negotiator Sen. John Cornyn (TX).


The Bidens are spending the day in Uvalde, visiting the memorial in front of the school, attending church, meeting with families and first responders. There are no plans for Biden to give a speech.

UPDATE: Biden Was Supposed to Meet Uvalde Residents, But Fled When They Booed and Chanted “Do Something!” (Video)

Video taken Sunday afternoon and posted to Twitter by El American reporter Anthony Cabassa shows Joe Biden, in town to pay respects to those killed in the school massacre this week, walking down a sidewalk with wife Jill after leaving mass in Uvalde, Texas, making their way to a crowd of people behind a police line. Biden’s motorcade can be seen inching down the street alongside him. The crowd breaks out into boos and chant’s of “Do something!” After a few seconds Biden turns away, walks into the street and climbs onto the Beast as it pulls up, stepping up on the door platform to tell the crowd, “We will!”, pointing his index finger and then giving a thumbs up to the vocal crowd.


This part of the story has not been widely reported and was not part of TGP’s earlier report on Biden’s visit to Uvalde.



Cabassa says the Secret Service had told the crowd that Biden would come down and meet and shake hands with them after mass, setting up a police line. But, Cabassa reports that when Biden heard the crowd’s chants he bailed rather than face them.



HAPPENING NOW: “DO SOMETHING! DO SOMETHING!” Uvalde residents exclaim to President Biden. Secret service told the community President would meet and shake hands with them, but is met with angry chants and instead leaves. This after Catholic Service in honor of victims…POTUS didn’t speak to anyone in the community at the Elementary, or at the Church visit. The Police set up tape last minute so the President could meet with residents outside, but as he walked to the crowd, chants broke out and some “boo’s” and decided against it.”

Most of the Local Texas Border Patrol Agents Skipped Meeting Joe Biden – Got in Their Vehicles and Drove Home Instead (Video)

Joe Biden traveled to Uvalde, Texas on Sunday following the mass shooting by a deranged teenager earlier in the week. 18-year-old Salvador Ramos killed 19 children and two teachers at Robb Elementary School on Tuesday.



Joe Biden was supposed to meet with Uvalde residents but he fled when they booed him and chanted “do something.”



Joe Biden was also supposed to meet with border patrol agents but most of them chose to skip the meeting and drove home when the White House ordered them to disarm before the meeting.


Retired border patrol agent John Carrell told Grant Stinchfield about Biden’s latest insults and the border agents’ response.



Grant Stinchfield: And the most insulting thing I think is Joe Biden demanded the border patrol agents be disarmed if they want to come meet him! This is unheard of, J.J.?



John Carrell: Yeah, I’ve never heard of this. President Trump never came in and disarmed us. So I’m hearing from my sources that agents literally came in from the field, didn’t check in, just got in their personal vehicles and went home.



Good move. It’s clear that Open Borders Biden and his White House have no regard for border agents or the work they do.
