Critics slammed President Biden for his response to the unprecedented levels of illegal immigrant crossings at the southern border.
Migrant encounters hit a record 300,000 incidents in December 2023, prompting Biden’s comment that “we gotta do something.”
Critics rejected the idea that lack of funding is the reason for the border crisis, suggesting it’s about political will rather than money. (Trending: Fauci’s Ex-Boss Admits The Truth About COVID)
What he's asking for is money for more agents to process illegals and bring them into the country, not protect the border. https://t.co/qbRhMMkhpP

Some argued that the funding request was for processing agents, not border protection.
The Republican Party called for building the wall and enforcing the law, while others criticized Biden’s avoidance of press conferences.
“Well, we gotta do something,” Biden said.
“They [Republicans] ought to give me the money I need to protect the border.”
“Oh yeah, more money. But not to ‘protect the border’. It’s to pay for more lawyers to lie for the illegal migrants posing as asylum seekers,” Fox News’ Miranda Devine said.
“It’s to pay for more NGOs to continue the cartel’s human trafficking work around the country.”
“It’s to pay for more ‘humanitarian’ aid at the border, and more money wasted on ‘root cause’ boondoggles. Anything but secure the border.”
“It doesn’t take more money to do that. Just the political will. He can close it tomorrow if he wants. He has enough new Biden voters now anyway.”
“What he’s asking for is money for more agents to process illegals and bring them into the country, not protect the border,” Sen. Tommy Tuberville said.
“Build the wall and enforce the law!” the Republican Party’s X account posted.
“Yes, Biden’s ‘gotta do something’—or Congress won’t fund the government,” Sen. Mike Lee said.
“This is what President Biden does instead of actual press conferences,” retired Army Col. James Hutton added.
