You can\u2019t go under it,\u201d Banks said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPresident Biden on Day One signs an executive order that stops construction of the wall, and that creates an entryway which is why this section is a hot spot,\u201d Banks added. \u201cYou have thousands of migrants passing through this area on a regular basis on nights like tonight, because there\u2019s an open door that allows them to do that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Also on the trip are Republican Reps.
