It\u2019s not just people from Central America. It\u2019s people from 160 different countries. They have been catching people from Yemen, who are on the terrorist watchlist. Why would they be coming to America that way? What do they have planned for America? The fear I have now with what has happened in Afghanistan is people know how to come here and they come from all other countries. This is a real threat to America.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<div id=\"attachment_19454506\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/media.breitbart.com\/media\/2022\/01\/GettyImages-1231735590.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-19454506\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/GettyImages-1231735590-1024x683-1.jpg\" alt=\"House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy addresses the press during the congressional border delegation visit to El Paso, Texas on March 15, 2021. - President Joe Biden faced mounting pressure Monday from Republicans over his handling of a surge in migrants -- including thousands of unaccompanied children -- arriving at the US-Mexican border.

When I first brought this forward at the press conference, a Democrat on the other side of the aisle said I was lying. You know what\u2019s interesting? That Democrat sits on the Intel Committee. That Democrat never apologized or did anything about it now. So if they knowingly have this information and the administration does, they need to put a stop to it because you need to protect America.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>McCarthy\u2019s comments came during the latest On The Hill long-form video special, taped in December at an Eastern Market establishment on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC. McCarthy ripped Biden, too, for never having visited the border himself.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe interesting part is President Biden has been in elected office for more than 40 years and the closest he ever came to the border is driving by it in El Paso one time,\u201d McCarthy said. \u201cWhy wouldn\u2019t he go visit it and know firsthand? It\u2019s a responsibility and a problem he created with his own policy. There wasn\u2019t one bill passed\u2014it\u2019s his policy, with one party rule, that has weakened America, put us in greater danger, and has spread COVID as well because of what\u2019s coming across.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_19454514\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/media.breitbart.com\/media\/2022\/01\/GettyImages-1334151161-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-19454514\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/GettyImages-1334151161-1-1024x695-1.jpg\" alt=\"ROMA, TEXAS - AUGUST 13: Smugglers guide groups of immigrants across the Rio Grande while crossing the border from Mexico on August 13, 2021 in Roma, Texas.

You don\u2019t just get people illegally coming, you empower cartels. There\u2019s going to be human trafficking. There\u2019s going to be deaths. And then, speaking back to China, where does fentanyl come from? It comes from China. It has increased in America by more than 300 percent. Every single city in America is a border city today. If you speak to any single one of those communities along the border\u2014I talked to one mayor, he had to shut down his school just in the first nine months 46 times. You know why? Because of the car chases from the cartels coming across and the shootings. You talk to the ranchers where they\u2019re getting grandkids kidnapped or their houses burnt down. Why? Because [the cartels] want a free run across. Then we find that this president, he\u2019s tying the hands of the border agents that are working overtime to try to to protect us. He is encouraging people to come here illegally and then what we found is he lies to the American public. When finally the American public sees those hundreds of thousands of people under the bridges, you got a Secretary who says we\u2019re going to send them back but they lie to the American public and we find out months later they flew them all different places in America and no one is being tested for COVID. But he\u2019s saying American can\u2019t go out because of COVID.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Watch the full-length interview with Kevin McCarthy:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"video-src-attr\">Matthew Perdie \/ Breitbart News, Jack Knudsen \/ Breitbart News<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy told Breitbart News that the \u201cdirty little secret\u201d that Democrat President Joe Biden is keeping from Americans with regard to the southern border crisis is &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1210435","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1210435","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/25"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1210435"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1210435\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1210435"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1210435"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1210435"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
