Senator Ted Cruz argued that the media and Democrats are avoiding reporting that the suspect in the murder of a Georgia college student is an illegal alien because they support open borders and view all undocumented immigrants as future Democratic voters.
Cruz said Democrats and the media are willing to accept deaths, assaults, and rapes as “collateral damage” in order to maintain support for open borders.
“Because they support the open borders we have,” Cruz said.

“The 10.6 million illegal immigrants who have crossed under Joe Biden — Democrats and the media both view all of them as future Democrat voters. And so if people have to die, if children have to be assaulted, if women have to be raped — they are willing to accept that as collateral damage.”
Cruz claimed the chances of a terrorist attack in the U.S. are now higher than since 9/11 due to illegal border crossings, noting Border Patrol agents have expressed concerns to him about terrorists from Hamas and Hezbollah entering to carry out attacks.
“The odds of a major terrorist attack in America today are greater than they have been at any point since September 11, 2001,” Cruz added. “Every time I am on the border, when I talk to Border Patrol agents they tell me they are concerned about Hamas and Hezbollah terrorists crossing over and trying to commit another mass murder like October 7.”
According to Cruz, the media is deliberately ignoring that the suspect in the Georgia murder case entered through President Biden’s “open borders” policies, which Cruz called the worst illegal immigration crisis in U.S. history.
