“we are going to spend over $4 billion today, and I just propose that we pay for it. There is a humanitarian crisis at the border, but there is also a debt crisis. We spend hundreds of millions, if not billions, on wasteful projects. Let's take it from foreign aid welfare and spend it on our southern border. We spend hundreds of thousands of dollars subsidizing guinea pig farmers in Peru, a llama fair in Bolivia, and advertisements to buy carbon credits in Mexico. There was $273 million spent trying to teach foreigners how to fill out grant applications to get more welfare from the United States, $300,000 to help Brazilians get off of Brazilian welfare, and half a million dollars spent jump-starting the Haitian film industry. There are billions of dollars that we can spend on the southern border, but we should take it from somewhere and not add it to the debt of our kids and our grandkids. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from South Carolina. Motion to Table”
