Arizona GOP Senate candidate Kari Lake on Monday became one of several Republican politicians who have weighed in on the death of Laken Riley, who was allegedly murdered by an illegal immigrant.
Many have blamed Joe Biden and his border enforcement, or lack thereof for the untimely death of the University of Georgia student.
In a post on X, Lake shared a picture of Riley and pointed out that she “was 22 years old. Just about my daughter’s age. She had her entire life ahead of her.”
“And it was snuffed out because corrupt DC politicians like @JoeBiden and @RubenGallego refuse to enforce the law,” Lake lamented.
Lake then declared that “More innocent Americans will be hurt unless we immediately secure the border and remove those who have invaded our country.”
“It’s time to put Americans’ Safety and Security First,” Lake concluded.

Lake later took another shot at Biden after it was reported that he was going to be visiting the southern border but “is not expected to announce new executive action on trip.”
“.@JoeBiden doesn’t want to secure the border. He wants a photo op. He thinks we’ll just forget that he opened our borders & invited this chaos in,” Lke insisted.
Lake added, “He think we’re stupid. I know what Americans want. More importantly, I know what they deserve: A secure border & safe streets.”
