“Ahead of our visit with President Trump #RSC obtained never before seen footage of the Border Crisis. It is shocking,” tweeted the RSC, a conservative caucus in the House of Representatives.
The post added, “This is what an open border looks like.”

Tennessee Republican Rep. Chuck Fleischmann tweeted, “It’s taken less than 6 months for Biden/Harris to destroy the security at our southern border. Under President Trump & @HouseGOP, the border was the most secure it has been in recent history.”
He added, “Open borders harm all legal immigrants & Americans. We must re-secure the border.”
