These horrific images and tragic deaths, as well as assaults that we’re seeing right now, they would not be happening if the Biden administration had not opened up the border and been completely unprepared for the massive influx of the young migrant children that they are enticing to come across the border. — Greg Abbott, governor, Texas
You’ve seen the video coming out of all of these kids crammed together under the foil blankets, huddling together. — Tom Barrasso, U.S. senator
Movie sets with cafeteria tents are fine. Black Lives Matter protests are gravy. But having your neighbor over to pray for you? Kagan believes the state can send you to jail for that based on its own whim. It’s tyrannical, but we are at a point where nothing surprises me anymore. — Bonchie, columnist, RedState
The people attempting to cross the border are losing their lives and being victimized by traffickers because the president essentially invited them to this fate. His public embrace of open borders policies is what caused this situation. Unfortunately, it does not appear that he has any answers for fixing it. — Jeff Charles, co-host, Red + Black Show
