Lt. Gov. Patrick torches Biden, Harris, Mayorkas and Jean-Pierre for migrant surge: 'This is a plan'

Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick criticizes President Biden's role in the ongoing border crisis as his administration plans to send active-duty troops to the southern border.

DAN PATRICK: These troops will be doing very little when they arrive there except be in clerical positions. Let's look at the entire picture. You have a president who doesn't know where he's been, doesn't know where he is or where he's going. A vice president that can't string ten words together for a coherent sentence...and by the way, she's the border czar, a homeland security secretary that continues to tell Congress the border is secure. And then the press secretary who said the other day that border crossings were down 90% while she knew they were sending these National Guard again, who are going to be in support, they can't interact with those crossing illegally. They'll do nothing to stop it. They don't want to stop it. And our poor Border Patrol agents who would like to do their job of law enforcement, they're reduced to being hotel clerks in an all-night hotel with a blinking vacancy sign out there that says everything is free in America. Come and get it. 

…

This president has a stone-cold heart. He does not care about the victims. He does not care about these people in San Jacinto County who were killed, five of them, including that nine-year-old … by an illegal who was here, who had been deported many times. In my view, this country has been invaded for years. I've said this on Fox, when I've been with you. And after [Biden's] first term, 10 to 15% of the total population, those who were already here before he came into office and the 10 million plus will be here during his four years, 10 to 15% of the entire population will be in America illegally. That's a plan, and he doesn't care who dies or gets hurt to execute that plan.
