Texas Gov. Abbott greets Biden with scathing letter as president visits border: 'emboldened the cartels'

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott hand-delivered President Biden a letter upon his arrival in Texas Sunday, criticizing the president for failing to take action on the border.

"Even the city you visit has been sanitized of the migrant camps which had overrun downtown El Paso because your administration wants to shield you from the chaos that Texans experience on a daily basis," Abbott said, alleging that the chaos was the direct result of the Biden administration failing to enforce federal immigration laws.  Bradford Betz is a Fox News Digital breaking reporter covering crime, political issues, and much more. 

Abbott said the federal government achieved "historically low levels of illegal immigration" under President Trump. But under the Biden administration, Abbott said, "America is suffering the worst illegal immigration in the history of our country."
