We have got to get our arms, one, around the inflation first, and then try to boost our defense capabilities in a dangerous world.

Because the administration has refused to fund the construction of a comprehensive barrier along the border, it has been compelled to send the National Guard to deal with the consequences.

I am deeply concerned, however, that the administration's failure to direct the appropriate resources to the crisis at the southern border has resulted in shifting the burden to the Guard.

I am concerned about this--what this communicates to both our allies and our adversaries.
