“I would also--before I talk about the SAVE Act, I just want to point out how the Democrats at this point, time and time again, have refused to fund the Department of Homeland Security at a time where we have conflict, at a time where we have seen terrorist attacks on the homeland--whether it is in Austin, Old Dominion, in Michigan--through the disastrous immigration policy overseen by the Biden administration with the Democrats where 15 million people came in here illegally, many of which we have no idea who they are. Most of them, we have no idea who they are. We do know that there are tens of thousands of murderers, hundreds of thousands of violent criminals. And the Democrats hate ICE and want to defund ICE so much they are willing to endanger the lives of the American people for this showboating and grandstanding. So anything they do out here to act like--it is just covering their rear ends because they know they are the ones responsible for defunding the Department of Homeland Security--that means TSA agents, that means the travel of the American people, that means the Coast Guard, that means the Secret Service, that means investigating people who are trafficking children here. This is a wildly bizarre, out-of-step ideology at this point where open borders is now in their DNA, and their refusal to want to get rid of people who shouldn't be here in the first place and prioritizing people who are here illegally over American citizens is nuts.”
