Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) asserted Joe Biden is letting cartels take \u201ccomplete charge\u201d of the U.S.-Mexico border. During a recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/07\/01\/marsha-blackburn-kamala-harris-93-days-late-border\/\">interview<\/a> with Breitbart, the Tennessee Republican said the Biden administration is more focused on being politically correct than facing the security risk.<\/p>\n<p>Her remarks came after Border Patrol Agents, who are strapped for resources, grappled with at least 183,000 illegal crossings in the month of May alone. Blackburn went on to stress that Biden\u2019s failure to act is not only posing a danger to Americans, but also to the migrants attempting the journey the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is heartbreaking to see these children that have been physically and sexually abused by the cartels,\u201d stated the Republican senator. \u201cThe cartels are completely in charge of the border. If you are not doing something to shut down that border, then you are helping the cartels.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">If Biden is really against crime, why won\u2019t he close the border?<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Sen.
