Lone Liberal on The Five Gets Interrupted by Every Co-Host in Less than Three Minutes

 

All four conservative co-hosts of The Five interrupted the lone liberal at the table in less than three minutes during a discussion about immigration on Friday.

Jessica Tarlov fended off a barrage of interruptions during a spirited discussion beginning with Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) sending busloads of undocumented migrants to Democratic-run cities such as Washington, D.C. and New York.

Tarlov noted a plea from New York Mayor Eric Adams, who said the city is willing to accept the migrants, but it needs assistance to do so.

“The Biden administration should be providing it,” Tarlov said. “We don’t have enough beds for them. We don’t have enough space for them. We are a sanctuary city. And it would behoove the Biden administration to live up to their talk about this and give the money to D.C. and give it to New York if you think that we have enough space for them. We have the jobs for them and make sure that they can do that–”

“Don’t forget the schools,” Sandra Smith abruptly chimed in. “The schools are inundated.”

“We lost millions of public school students,” Tarlov replied. “Put the kids in–”

“Should we give the money to Texas?” Jeanine Pirro interrupted.

“Sure,” Tarlov answered. “Every state that has a problem should get more federal funding.”

“But we don’t have the money,” said Pirro.

“We do have the money!” responded Tarlov. “We print money–”

“The money needs to go to the border,” Joey Jones said, jumping in. “We don’t need American taxpayer dollars that’s been taken by the federal government to go to these cities who have proclaimed themselves sanctuary cities so that their constituents and their residents don’t feel the pain and don’t vote them out of office for making them a sanctuary city to begin with.”

Later, Pirro asked Tarlov what President Joe Biden should do about the situation.

“He should give out federal funds to places where these migrants are going,” she answered. “He should work on border security. Last week they started closing off that big gap in Yuma–”

“You know what the interesting thing is,” Lawrence Jones interjected. “The last time that we had this conversation here, you said that Greg Abbott’s stunt did not work. Is it working now?”

“The stunt we were talking about was when he was holding up the inspections, not when he was sending migrants–”

“No, no, no, no, no,” Jones replied. “When he sent the bus to D.C., you said it didn’t work. Now, it has become a national story in all of the cities now.”

Pirro ended the segment by saying, “We can’t afford it. New York City can’t afford it, Texas towns can’t afford it, Washington can’t afford it. End it.”
