Madam Speaker, how many Democrats or open border caucus members--I apologize for my redundancy there--are willing to house migrants in their own homes, Madam Speaker? None. Zero. Nada. They seem to all be for providing sanctuary, provided they don't have to provide it. Alejandro Mayorkas, under oath, testified before Congress and claimed the border is no less secure than it was previously. Does anyone in this Chamber actually believe that? Does anyone in this country believe that? Let's compare the first 3 years of President Trump's and Biden's tenures: President Trump in his first 3 years, 1.6 million illegal crossings; Joe Biden, 8.3 million, a 519 percent increase. Terror watch list suspects apprehended under Trump were 8 in 3 years; under Joe Biden, 361. That is a 4,512 percent increase. Chinese nationals, men mostly of military age entering illegally, last year under President Trump it was 450, and under Joe Biden it is over 24,000. That is a 5,333 percent increase. No less secure. Is that the new math? Opioid deaths have doubled. The Mexican drug cartels are enjoying record profits. Alejandro Mayorkas fostered this mayhem, and he facilitated cataclysmic chaos. He is inept. He is weak. He is impotent. He has violated Federal law. He has perjured himself in front of Congress. He has lied to the American people. He has undermined his own Border Patrol agents. Mayorkas has shown the world who he is. He is a sheep in sheep's clothing.…
