I appreciate the opportunity to address the disaster at our southern border. The grief that has been brought upon the American people in the past 3 years is unspeakable. It was brought on strictly by policy change. It is the exact same…
This was how you try to get to a 'yes,' America. The answer is, yes, illegal aliens are being pulled from the cartel pipeline at DHS-established Regional Processing Centers in Central and South America and flown directly into the interior…
