Congressman Glenn Grothman joined me on the Wisconsin Morning News today to discuss the disastrous invasion of illegals at America’s border.
A video posted on X shows illegals assaulting members of the Texas National Guard who are defending the border under Governor Greg Abbott’s Operation Lone Star border security mission. The group of military-aged males eventually broke through the border wire and rushed a permanent border barrier, also manned by guardsmen.
“Since taking office, President Biden has advocated for a progressive open-border agenda, resulting in a staggering 8.7 million illegal border crossings nationwide,” said Congressman Grothman. “The influx of illegal migrants through our southern border surpasses the population of 36 states. The number of those crossing illegally into the United States is overwhelming Border Patrol, American cities, and putting American citizens at risk. President Biden and his Administration have made over 60 decisions that have weakened our border security, such as halting the construction of the border wall system and eliminating the Remain in Mexico policy. America has become a beacon of prosperity throughout the world not because of our generous welfare system, but by how many jobs we provide for those looking for a better life for their family and themselves. Currently, illegal migrants are accessing benefits that are intended for U.S. citizens. This is serving as one more incentive for individuals to cross our border illegally. The Safeguarding Benefits for Americans Act will ensure benefits are available for U.S. citizens by decreasing the likelihood that people will cross into our country illegally in search of handouts. I want to give every immigrant a hand-up instead of a hand-out so they too can share the dignity that comes with an honest day’s work, just like my ancestors had when they came to this country.”
Reporter Jennie Taer: This is the moment when TX National Guard became overrun by migrants rioting to get across the border here in El Paso today. We were there and saw it all happen. Absolute chaos here.
