There are so many elements to hear.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cAnd you listen to a president, he said he wants a secure border, so much that he put his vice president in charge \u2014 who has only been to it one time\u2026. To a president has been in office more than 42 years, and the closest I\u2019ve ever found that he came [to the southern border] was in a car driving by El Paso,\u201d McCarthy continued.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cIn a concern that numerous times from both sides of the aisle has asked this president to engage about the concerns of the border,\u201d McCarthy added. \u201cJust his language\u2026in our very first time down to the border last year there\u2019s a line of individuals there\u2026and we asked him, \u2018Why did they come in? How many days did it take them?\u2019 They had been walking for more than 18 days. We asked them and they said, \u2018Because Joe Biden invited us.\u2019 That\u2019s what they believed based on his language. This was right after the inaugural. He can start by saying, \u2018Don\u2019t come.\u2019 He can start by using every avenue to secure the border, but on his very first day, he stopped the securing of the border by stopping the building of the wall.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cThe only reason you still have Remain in Mexico is that a court told him to do it but they\u2019re not upholding it,\u201d McCarthy added, in reference to a Trump-era border policy that Biden rescinded only to be ordered by a court to reinstate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cHow many people do you think are going to be at that border next month? How many people do you think are already coming to the border knowing what day May 23rd is?\u201d McCarthy asked reporters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>McCarthy\u2019s comments come as former U.S. Border Patrol Chief Rodney Scott t<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/migrant-tsunami-will-worsen-due-to-title-42-rollback-former-trump-and-biden-border-patrol-chief-says\"><span>old The Daily Wire in an interview<\/span><\/a><span> that America will see a \u201ctsunami\u201d of illegal aliens into the U.S. that will \u201ckeep coming and coming and coming\u201d once Title 42 is gone.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Congressman John Katko (R-NY) also spoke Monday evening, blasting the president for his border policies and warned of the dangers of illicit drugs seeping into the country.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cAnytime in this country you hear of a drug overdose death, whether it be in Topeka, Kansas, or Syracuse, New York, my hometown, you have to understand that every single community is a border a community, and every single state is a border state because the poison that\u2019s coming across our borders,\u201d Katko said. \u201cThat\u2019s much more easy to do because of the number illegal aliens coming across is making it impossible to stop and it\u2019s killing kids all over the country.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Recently, Border Patrol<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/04\/02\/biden-is-looking-to-double-his-record-on-letting-in-illegal-migrants\/\"> <span>released<\/span><\/a><span> estimates that they were planning to encounter 8,000 illegal aliens a day this spring before Title 42 ends.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>To that extent, Katko said, \u201cRight now, we\u2019re seeing about 8,000 aliens a day coming across\u00a0 \u2014 8,000 \u2014 operational control is about 5,000. They expect that once Title 42 is rescinded, it will go up to as much as 18,000 a day,\u201d Katko also said. \u201cThere\u2019s no way that we can control the border in any way, shape, or form if that happens.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>ABC News<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/US\/us-bracing-influx-migrants-southern-border-title-42\/story?id=83751437\"> <span>reported<\/span><\/a><span> last week that the \u201cDepartment of Homeland Security is bracing for as many as 18,000 migrants per day at the southern border if<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/Politics\/video\/title-42-explained-terry-moran-80214698\"> <span>Title 42<\/span><\/a><span> is revoked, according to senior DHS officials who briefed reporters on Tuesday.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Katko also broke down how lucrative the porous border has been for cartels in Mexico, and why that puts the U.S. at risk.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cYou cannot cross the border unless you pay the cartels a minimum of $4,000,\u201d Katko said. Estimates in the past<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/qz.com\/1632508\/this-is-how-much-it-costs-to-cross-the-us-mexico-border-illegally\/\"> <span>have put that figure<\/span><\/a><span> between $4,000 and $10,000. I have 8,000 a day coming across times $4,000, that\u2019s $32 million a day, which is $1 billion a month going to cartels. So what are they doing with this money? They\u2019re investing in being able to make fentanyl by themselves and not having to import it from China. They\u2019re investing in cybercriminal activity. They are creating and basically states, nation-states within Mexico, that are criminal organizations.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Katko added that because of that activity, Mexico may become a \u201cdestabilized\u201d nation right on America\u2019s border which will present a further security risk for the U.S.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The full press conference can be seen here:<\/span><\/p>\n[embedded content]\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies for breaking news, investigative reporting, sports, podcasts, in-depth analysis, books, and entertainment for a reason: because we believe in what we do.
