Paxton&#8217;s remarks came in response \u2064to the Department \u2063of Justice (DOJ) threatening to sue Texas over a new law that allows the state to arrest illegal migrants and gives local judges more authority to order them to leave.<\/p>\n<p>Paxton\u200b expressed his \u2062frustration during an appearance on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/video\/6344098159112\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fox News&#8217; \u2064&#8221;Sunday Morning Futures,&#8221;<\/a> stating, &#8220;It&#8217;s pretty crazy to see what&#8217;s happened over the last three years \u200cof the Biden administration. Those numbers, as you have seen, get worse, not better.&#8221; He criticized the administration for not effectively addressing the\u2064 problem \u200dand instead exacerbating it\u200c by enabling cartels to profit from human trafficking.<\/p>\n<p>The\u2062 DOJ recently sent a letter to Texas \u200dGovernor Greg Abbott, threatening to sue the state for interfering with federal immigration law. In response, Abbott&#8217;s office \u200ddeclared its readiness to take the legal battle to the U.S. Supreme Court if necessary.<\/p>\n<p>Paxton argued \u2063that the U.S.\u2063 immigration courts are overwhelmed and unable to handle the influx of \u200dasylum seekers, allowing many to &#8220;disappear&#8221; before \u200btheir court dates. He emphasized that the border crisis\u200c not only poses a significant financial burden, costing billions of dollars, but\u2063 also\u2062 fuels crime, particularly human and drug trafficking.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Paxton criticized the\u2064 federal government&#8217;s attempt to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/texas-attorney-general-accuses-biden-amin-of-aiding-drug-cartels\/\" title=\"Texas AG accuses Biden admin of aiding drug cartels\">remove razor wire installed<\/a> by\u2062 Texas officials along the Rio Grande River to deter illegal immigration. This move has resulted in\u2063 a legal challenge that is currently making its way through the court \u200dsystem.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We merely want to \u2062protect our own citizens from the crime and the cost of illegal immigration, \u200dwhen it&#8217;s really their job to do it,&#8221; Paxton asserted. &#8220;And, instead, we&#8217;ve got the Biden administration, as I said, aiding and abetting the\u2064 cartels, encouraging the cartels to make billions of dollars and to bring as many people here \u200bas possible \u2014 as fast\u2062 as possible and as soon as possible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\">CLICK HERE TO GET \u2064THE DAILY WIRE APP<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> \u2064How does the Texas Attorney General accuse the Biden administration of\u2063 failing to prioritize national security and\u200c public safety<\/h2>\n<p><span>  Crossing the border. According to Paxton, \u2063the Biden administration&#8217;s response to the crisis has been \u2063inadequate and\u2062 has only worsened \u2062the situation.<\/p>\n<p>Paxton&#8217;s criticism stems from the recent\u200b surge in illegal border crossings, with thousands of migrants attempting to enter the\u200b United States through the southern border every day. The crisis has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/no-clue-what-to-do-about-it-piers-morgan-blasts-joe-bidens-get-out-but-come-in-border-message\/\" title=\"\u2018No Clue What To Do About It\u2019: Piers Morgan Blasts Joe Biden\u2019s \u2018Get Out But Come In\u2019 Border Message\">overwhelmed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/white-house-releases-list-of-president-trumps-accomplishments-and-it-is-historic\/\" title=\"White House Releases List of President Trump\u2019s Accomplishments \u2013  And It Is Historic!\">border patrol agents<\/a><\/a> and\u200c led to overcrowded detention centers. Despite these challenges, Paxton believes that the Biden administration&#8217;s policies have \u200conly exacerbated the issue.<\/p>\n<p>Paxton argues that by rolling back many\u2064 of the Trump administration&#8217;s\u200b immigration policies, the Biden administration has essentially opened the floodgates for cartels and criminal organizations to exploit. He claims that\u2063 the\u200d administration&#8217;s relaxed stance\u2063 on border security has\u200d emboldened cartels and \u200ballowed them to profit from human trafficking and drug\u2062 smuggling.<\/p>\n<p>The \u200cTexas Attorney General accuses the Biden administration of failing to prioritize national security and public safety. He argues that instead of cracking down on cartels and securing the border, the administration has focused on dismantling immigration enforcement and promoting \u2064a more lenient approach to illegal immigration.<\/p>\n<p>Paxton&#8217;s remarks also come in response to the Department of Justice threatening to sue \u200bTexas over a recently signed law that allows <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/doj-tells-missouri-they-cant-disregard-federal-gun-laws\/\" title=\"DOJ Tells Missouri They Can\u2019t Disregard Federal Gun Laws\">state law enforcement officers<\/a> to arrest illegal migrants for trespassing. Paxton \u2064argues that instead of supporting Texas&#8217; efforts to address the overwhelming number of illegal border crossings, the Biden administration is actively \u200ctrying to undermine the state&#8217;s authority.<\/p>\n<p>The accusations made by the \u2063Texas Attorney General\u200d are not unfounded. Reports from border patrol agents and intelligence agencies have highlighted the increasing involvement \u2063of cartels in human smuggling operations. These criminal organizations profit from \u2064the\u2064 desperation of migrants seeking a better life and exploit their vulnerability\u200c for financial gain.<\/p>\n<p>The Biden administration has defended its approach to the \u200dsouthern border crisis, arguing that the surge in\u2064 illegal crossings is a \u200dresult of deteriorating conditions in \u2062Central\u2062 America and the need for a more \u200bhumanitarian\u2064 response. The administration has also emphasized its commitment to\u2064 addressing the root causes of migration and establishing \u200blegal pathways \u200bfor individuals to seek asylum.<\/p>\n<p>However, \u2064critics, including Paxton, argue\u2062 that a more comprehensive strategy is needed to tackle the border crisis. \u200dThey call for increased resources and support for border patrol agents, stricter enforcement of immigration laws, and a more robust \u200capproach to dismantling the cartels that facilitate illegal border crossings.<\/p>\n<p>The accusations made by the Texas Attorney General raise serious concerns about the Biden administration&#8217;s ability to \u200baddress the southern border \u2064crisis effectively. The unchecked flow of illegal\u200d migration not only poses security risks but also puts a strain on local \u2063communities and resources.<\/p>\n<p>As the \u200dsituation continues\u2062 to unfold, it\u200d is crucial for the Biden administration to reassess its approach and implement comprehensive solutions to secure the southern border. The collaboration \u200dbetween federal, state, and local authorities, as well\u2062 as international\u2062 cooperation, is essential \u2063to combatting\u2063 the influence of cartels and ensuring the safety and well-being \u2063of both migrants and\u2063 American citizens.\u2064 Only through a collective effort can a lasting resolution to this\u2064 crisis be achieved.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Texas AG Ken Paxton accused the Biden administration of aiding cartels in smuggling people across the southern border.
