Border Security

Do you see the trend here since President Biden took office? 78,417 – January 101,098 – February 173,283 – March 178,797 – April 180,569 – May 188,934 – June 212,672 – July These are Border Patrol encounters of illegal immigrants by month. (An “encounter” is either an apprehension or an immediate expulsion.) Did you read how the Secretary of Homeland Security recently described… Read more »

Check out this Wall Street Journal sentence in an article published Saturday: “Migrant families continue to be released with instructions to check in with immigration authorities, rather than being given court dates, because border agents are too busy to issue the proper paperwork.” That’s unreal. Everyone knew there’d be a massive surge of illegal immigrants after President Biden… Read more »

Confirmed by a Friday afternoon data dump: our Border Patrol has now apprehended more than ONE MILLION illegal immigrants so far this year. That’s more in the first six months of 2021 than any **full year** since 2005. And that number doesn’t even account for the countless who made it though without being apprehended. June’s data also revealed 15,000 apprehensions of unaccompanied… Read more »

At the airport now, heading to join President Trump at the southern border.    Within just six months of his successor taking office, apprehensions of illegal immigrants have now SOARED to 20-year highs. This will be my third trip to inspect conditions along the southern border and as I’ve said before, this is not gross incompetence on the part of President Biden.… Read more »

It’s a calculated lie when President Biden tells you his border crisis was inherited from President Trump. By calculated, I mean he knows the media WILL NEVER hold him to account on this issue. So he can bank on more people being persuaded by a false narrative rather than the actual facts: ◾ Trump didn’t campaign on a relaxed approach to border security. Trump didn’t stop building his… Read more »

The agenda outlined by President Biden on Wednesday night is a one-way ticket to a socialistic welfare state with astronomical taxes, and government encroaching on every aspect of our lives.  His vision for our nation involves growing the size of almost every corner of the federal government. (With the exception of our military, to nobody’s surprise.) There’s simply no room to talk… Read more »

Here’s something to ponder: President Biden obviously didn’t campaign on creating a massive surge of illegal immigrants. But what if he had? What if Candidate Joe Biden had promised the American people total chaos along the southern border, a demoralized Border Patrol, thousands of unaccompanied children, and a renewed humanitarian crisis? ➡️ How would he have fulfilled that sinister yet… Read more »

I flew back to D.C. yesterday after getting a firsthand look at the new crisis along our southern border. It’s bad. In fact, it’s incomprehensible.   We met with border patrol agents who are now overworked, overwhelmed, and stretched dangerously thin. On top of patrolling hundreds of miles of the border, they’re also doubling as daycare workers for record numbers of… Read more »

Today (Monday) I’m down along the southern border in Texas and New Mexico to meet with border officials and get a first-hand understanding of the crisis caused by President Biden’s immigration policies. I’ll post more information about this trip soon.   Remember: President Trump also faced a surge of illegal immigration back in 2019. Three of the major causes of that… Read more »

REPORT: “President Biden recently held an undisclosed East Room session with historians that included discussion of how big is too big — and how fast is too fast — to jam through once-in-a-lifetime historic changes to America.” This was the leading paragraph of a news article this morning predicting what’s to come. Naturally the question is, what other “historic changes” could they have… Read more »
