Border Crisis Claims
00:03:13

|
| Guys, here's Ted Cruz calling out the crisis, the humanitarian crisis at the border to Agricultural Secretary Tom Vilsack. | |
| He knows what's going on. | |
| He brings receipts. | |
| There was no border crisis under Trump. | |
| There is now. They're trying to pretend that it's because submigrant labor is going to come up to work the fields. | |
| No, it's because you're promising them free health care. | |
| You're promising them free education. | |
| You're promising amnesty. | |
| They're trying to do it under the guise of they're trying to help farmers. | |
| But we've tried that before. | |
| That's not what they want. | |
| The Democrats want full amnesty. | |
| Now, full amnesty only for those coming across the southern border, not those who are seeking, say, amnesty from Cuba, where they're being shot at by a communist regime. | |
| Why? What's the difference, you may ask? | |
| Well, maybe it's those coming from Cuba aren't just going to blindly vote for Democrats who are showing their true communist colors on a daily basis. | |
| Maybe they've learned a little bit about communism, having lived under it, And won't blindly vote for it like those coming across the southern border may. | |
| I'm glad Ted Cruz lights him up and he uses some pretty choice language even. | |
| Hey, I'm not Lindsey Graham. | |
| I've never been for amnesty. | |
| That's pretty lit, but it's good that Republicans are fighting back. | |
| And I thank Donald Trump, my dad, for opening the door to allow us to finally call these things out for what they actually are. | |
| Check it out. Your answers on immigration were fertilizer. | |
| They were nonsense. Your answer, you said, why are we seeing this crisis? | |
| Your answer was poverty. | |
| There are 7 billion people on planet Earth, many of whom were poor. | |
| And you know what? They were poor last year. | |
| And we had the lowest rate of illegal immigration in 45 years. | |
| They're poor this year. What's changed? | |
| Is this administration refuses to enforce the law and Texas is paying the price for it. | |
| That's what's changed. Your other answer was the pandemic. | |
| Mr. Secretary, last year there was a pandemic. | |
| And we had the lowest rate of illegal immigration in 45 years. | |
| Poverty didn't magically appear on January of 2021. | |
| And the pandemic didn't appear on January 2021. | |
| What appeared was Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and policies that are inhumane, that are cruel, and that are failing. | |
| Senator, was the border secure last year? | |
| Last year, it was the most secure it's been in 45 years. | |
| If that's the case, why didn't you all pass the Ag Modernization Act last year after it passed the House? | |
| You're telling me that he's got to secure the border before you pass this act. | |
| Let me be clear. I'm not Lindsey Graham. | |
| I don't support this bill. No, no, no. | |
| Look, look. I understand that there have been Democrats and Republicans who support amnesty. | |
| I ain't one of them. | |
| So I get that you want amnesty. | |
| I get that your invitation is come to America, forget the legal processes that everyone... | |
| I want a workforce that's going to continue to support the greatest agriculture and food industry in the world. | |

Crisis Administration Caused

|
| That's what I'd like to have. | |
| Well, I'll tell you... | |
| I thought you wanted him to respond. | |
| Senator, you've taken more time than any other senator this morning. | |
| Will you please wrap up? This is a crisis. | |
| This administration caused it. | |
