You never know exactly what he\u2019s gonna say. But I certainly know he\u2019s gonna highlight the last year of the Biden administration,\u201d Paxton said when asked what could be expected at tonight\u2019s rally. \u201cAnd the disaster, whether it\u2019s Afghanistan, whether it\u2019s the border, whether it\u2019s inflation, whether it\u2019s supply chain, whether it\u2019s crime, you name it. Everything has gone the wrong way for the American people in the Biden Administration.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Paxton then said he often asks his Democrat friends to name at least one thing that has been good for Americans during Biden\u2019s first year in office, but they have zero examples.<\/p>\n<p>Boyle next touched on the lawsuits that Paxton and other Republican attorneys general have filed to combat the Biden administration\u2019s radical left agenda.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYeah, it\u2019s shocking that I would say this, but we have 27 lawsuits right now with the Biden administration. We\u2019ve been successful in over 90% of those,\u201d Paxton said. He then talked about a&nbsp;<a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?sa=t&amp;rct=j&amp;q=&amp;esrc=s&amp;source=web&amp;cd=&amp;cad=rja&amp;uact=8&amp;ved=2ahUKEwiaipvO3tf1AhW8RTABHZWjBcsQvOMEKAB6BAgWEAE&amp;url=https:\/\/www.texasattorneygeneral.gov\/news\/releases\/ag-paxton-hosts-border-summit-twelve-attorneys-general-mcallen-tx&amp;usg=AOvVaw1WcupEF7p6r13xajkilxIJ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">summit<\/a>&nbsp;he held with 12 Republican attorneys general this week at the nation\u2019s southern border.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEverybody that comes cross border obviously pays the cartels and so I got to show firsthand to these Republican attorney generals, just how bad it is and how really, there are no border states. Every state is a border state.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B3\" class=\"a8d adSo\"><\/figure>\n<p>Paxton mentioned how the night before his border summit, federal officials canceled the scheduled briefings they were supposed to give the Republican AGs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat was interesting is we had set up all these briefings from our state police, who did give us a briefing from local officials. And then also from border patrol, who we love working with, great men and women, and then also ICE,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd unfortunately, the Biden Administration, somebody in Washington the night before these Republicans were going to be there. cancelled all the briefings.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>Boyle then asked Paxton to discuss the criteria he looks for when determining which Biden policy to challenge in federal court.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo what we often look at is, is the Biden administration doing something in direct violation of the federal law, in direct violation of their constitutional role?\u201d Paxton said. He went on to talk about the most recent lawsuit filed by himself and other Republican AGs challenging the Central American Minors Refugee and Parole Program, which allows asylum seekers in America to import certain family members into the country from their home country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd so we\u2019ve sued the Biden Administration some just yesterday. And the reason we did was because there is nothing in federal law, there\u2019s nothing that Congress has authorized that allows the Biden administration to use taxpayer dollars to invite family members of these people claiming asylum to come into the country.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B4\" class=\"a8d adSo\"><\/figure>\n<p>Boyle, who noted that statewide AG races are some of the most important elections to vote in, asked Paxton to put in context the importance of voters electing the proper attorney general.<\/p>\n<p>Paxton recently decided to run for his third term as Texas AG because he \u201cfelt like we were in a crisis in our country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have a president who\u2019s rogue, who isn\u2019t following the Constitution. And I have these people running against me who have no experience doing this job,\u201d Paxton said. \u201cAnd even the roles they had before, they didn\u2019t demonstrate that ability to stand up and fight the fight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Paxton said the AG position \u201cmay be the difference between preserving our freedoms, protecting our Constitution, giving the American people the opportunity to continue to make their own decisions, instead of having a federal government say, \u2018you have a vaccine or we\u2019re gonna fire you, we\u2019re gonna ruin the border and ruin the country.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Boyle wrapped up the interview talking about Breitbart News senior contributor Peter Schweizer\u2019s new Book,&nbsp;<a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Red-Handed-American-Elites-Helping-China\/dp\/0063061147\/?tag=breitbart035-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Red-Handed<\/em><\/a>, which exposes the Biden family\u2019s financial ties to the Chinese Communist Party. He asked Paxton if the AG\u2019s office could do anything to prevent Chinese influence on American politics.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know, I have the same concern you do. I think the Chinese Communists are maybe the biggest threat to America\u2019s freedom, even \u2014 it\u2019s hard to say this \u2014 even more than the Biden administration,\u201d Paxton said. \u201cAnd the fact that there may be collusion and the fact that some of Biden\u2019s family and other members of his administration may have these connections with the Chinese is extremely concerning.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Paxton said Republican AGs are looking at ways to combat China\u2019s influence, but noted that it is novel because the federal government typically protects us from foreign threats.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo yes, we are looking at ways to try to have an impact on the Chinese communists in our state, but it\u2019s difficult because normally that\u2019s associated with the federal government, protecting us from international threats, not in individual states,\u201d he explained. \u201cAnd so we\u2019re all looking at that, all of the Republican attorney generals, but it\u2019s a new area for us. And it may be one that we have to sort of feel our way around in as we move forward because we all do have concerns about what\u2019s going on with China.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i data-stringify-type=\"italic\">Breitbart News Saturday airs on SiriusXM Patriot 125 from 10:00 A.M. to 1:00 P.M.
