Rep. Pat Fallon to Newsmax TV: Biden Handing Border to Drug Cartels<\/strong><\/h1>\n

By Eric Mack | FNEWSMAX<\/p>\n

The Biden administration’s open border policies are handing\u00a0control of the U.S. southern border to the Mexican drug cartels, according to Rep. Pat Fallon, R-Texas, on\u00a0Newsmax TV<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Ask yourself this question: Do you want the federal government to oversee and secure the border, or do you want the Mexican drug cartels to run it?” Fallon told Friday’s “Spicer & Co.<\/a>”<\/p>\n

“Because right now the Mexican drug cartels de facto are controlling our southern border.”<\/p>\n

Fallon, elected to Texas’ 4th<\/sup>\u00a0Congressional District northeast of Dallas, said opening our borders to mass migration is unlike the old 1800s America where the conditions were far more difficult.<\/p>\n

“It’s very clear that you can’t have both an\u00a0open border and a welfare state; you just can’t,” Fallon told host Sean Spicer and guest host Mercedes Schlapp.<\/p>\n

“When you have five million people in the world trying to get [into] this country legally and we’re allowing people to cut the line and mass unlawful migration, it’s un-American.”<\/p>\n

And the Trump administration had curbed illegal immigration, had the numbers manageable, along with a Remain in Mexico policy where legitimate asylum seekers did not merely get released in the country before their official hearings, Fallon continued.<\/p>\n

“Let’s be really clear: It’s the Biden border crisis,” he said, adding he is a “proud, deplorable Neanderthal,” references to Hillary Clinton’s smearing of Republican Trump supporters and Biden’s quip against Texas for lifting face mask mandates as “Neanderthal thinking.”<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the Biden administration is permitting\u00a0COVID-19 positive migrants to enter the country without being detained, tested\u00a0or quarantined, Fallon lamented.<\/p>\n

“Apparently they’re not following the science; it definitely makes no sense whatsoever,” he said. “They’re just trying to appease their radical progressive left his base at the expense of the American people.<\/p>\n
