| Statement by Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the United States of America |
| I have accepted the invitation of Texas Governor Greg Abbott to join him on an official visit to our Nation’s decimated Southern Border on Wednesday, June 30, 2021. The Biden Administration inherited from me the strongest, safest, and most secure border in U.S history and in mere weeks they turned it into the single worst border crisis in U.S history. It’s an unmitigated disaster zone. We went from detain-and-remove to catch-and-release. We went from having border security that was the envy of the world to a lawless border that is now pitied around the world. Biden and Harris have handed control of our border over to cartels, criminals, and coyotes. Drug dealers, MS-13 gang members, human smugglers, sex traffickers, and the criminal elements of the world now have free reign. Hospitals and schools are getting crushed and public health is being sacrificed all in service of a radical left anti-borders agenda. Our brave border agents and courageous ICE officers have been illegally stopped from doing their jobs. Our Nation is now one giant sanctuary city where even dangerous criminals are being cut loose and set free inside the U.S interior on a daily basis. If this weren’t bad enough, Biden and Harris won’t even tour the scenes of the wreckage they created, or come down and visit with the Border Patrol and ICE heroes risking their lives to defend our Nation at a time when the White House is doing everything it can to make their job totally impossible. What Biden and Harris have done, and are continuing to do on our border, is a grave and willful dereliction of duty. My visit will hopefully shine a spotlight on these crimes against our Nation—and show the incredible people of ICE and Border Patrol that they have our unshakeable support. Media credentialing information will be provided at a later date. |
Our leader is back. Let's see what Biden & co. do in the lead up, if anything.
Thank you. This country needs leadership desperately.
The most important job of a President is to safeguard our country. Biden/Harris have failed miserably and it seems like that is their intent. None of MSM is reporting on it either. It is part of the Marxist plan to take down America. Pray to God they are not successful. I applaud all of the brave leaders, both locally and nationally, who are standing up to this oppression. May God bless America
Well I am totally in awe of this! Our current administration is too busy, but Trump is savvy and knows this will shine even more light on a crisis Biden created. What astonishes me, their willingness to reverse anything Trump did, just "because" Trump did it! We, as USA taxpayers, will be paying for this crisis for years to come. If any of you have not read or listened to Sharyl's report on the cost of this (her very detailed reporting on dollar amounts from back when Obama was president), and I'm talking about the crimes done by illegal aliens, the prosecution and incarcerations of these criminals, and the number of people's lives that were affected (meaning numbers of murders and offenses). Somebody has to stop this...praying Trump can move more mountains to wake up the woke!
