For the last four years, we’ve listened to Republicans cry about the so-called “border crisis.” They made a mountain of lies, and depending on what channel you turned on and on which day, 10 million undocumented immigrants were flowing over the border… 20 million… 50 million… but Trump was going to fix it all. Right?

That’s what we were told. Trump was going to be re-elected to fix the border.

Since being sworn back in roughly 48 hours ago, Mango Mussolini has shut down the border for asylum seekers, reimposed the harmful Remain in Mexico policy, ordered 1,500 military troops down to the border, and authorized ICE to target courthouses, schools, and churches.

It would seem that whatever perceived threat Republicans see at the Texas border has been neutralized.

So, why are Texas Republicans planning to spend another $6.5 billion of our taxpayer dollars to “maintain current border security operations?”
