On the recordApril 7, 2022
There is no excuse for it. If this President was doing everything else right--just use your imagination and just allow for a moment--if he was doing everything else right and some of his other policies were working--let's pretend some were working--what he has allowed to happen at the border as the head of the Democratic Party, never in the history of the country has our own President done more to intentionally harm the United States in what he has done in his first year. So it is no wonder that not one Democrat will join us in standing up for border security. How did that become a partisan issue? As you know, we were in an off-the-record meeting with Secretary Mayorkas so I can't share what he said. I can share what I said. I asked him: What is the end game? Here we are going to take it from some 7,000 a day--it is estimated 18,000 a day--that means every 3 days you will have the equivalent population of my home county, Campbell County, Virginia, 56,000 people, in 3 days we will have that many illegal border crossings. By the way, in my hometown of Lynchburg, Virginia, right outside Campbell County there, we just had a murder conviction of an MS-13 gang member who came across illegally. Again, demonstrating that every town is a border town under this President. Every State is a border State under this President. {time} 1400 I appreciate you leading on this issue, Mr. Roy, so passionately and so consistently and so faithfully.…
