‘Fox & Friends’ Stumbles to Interview Venezuelan Migrants Texas Governor Sent to Kamala Harris’ Home (Video)

In his latest political stunt to draw attention to an influx of illegal immigrants crossing the Mexican border into his state, Texas governor Greg Abbott sent two busloads of Venezuelan migrants to Washington, D.C.’s Naval Observatory Thursday morning, just outside Vice President Kamala Harris’ home.

In what appears to be an organized plan between “Fox & Friends” and the buses’ arrival around 6:45 a.m. local time, Fox News reporter Griff Jenkins was on the scene to interview the non-English-speaking migrants as they exited the bus. “This bus just arrived moments ago,” Jenkins said, streaming in to anchor Steve Doocy. “I talked to some of the folks, apparently this bus has come from Del Rio, Texas – that’s what a gentleman on the bus told me.”He then interrupted a woman with a “pardon me” and asked segmented questions like “habla Inglés?” and “de donde arris?” before painstakingly getting her to indicate that she believes the border is “open.”“So what she’s saying Steve, I asked her: ‘Vice President Harris says the border is closed.’ She says it’s open, as we see these migrants coming across now,” he said. “We’re not sure how many there are.”A second interviewee gave Jenkins a longer answer in Spanish than he bargained for while trying to learn more about his country of origin.

Nodding confusingly, the reporter replied, “OK, thank you, bueno verte,” before turning back to camera. “So I’m not going to be able to translate all that, and I’m not even going to try because it wouldn’t look good on live TV, but as you can see they’re coming across here, all these migrants.
