“The federal government has broken the compact between the United States and the states,” read a statement from the conservative politician. “The executive branch of the United States has a constitutional duty to enforce those laws and has even violated them. The result is that he has smashed records for illegal immigration.”
“This country's coming unglued,” said Nixon of the contentious political battle. “The country is politically unstable. People are like, 'Hey, should we send the federal government against the states?' And there's now a bunch of truckers that are like, 'we're armed and we're going to the border to stand up against the Biden administration.' And I'm like, man, the wheels are falling off the cart here.”
“When you look at the Senate, the Senate seems like they're ready to deal,” observed Thomas. “[Republican House Speaker] Mike Johnson is like 'kick rocks.' But it's like, how long can Mike Johnson kick rocks? The Republican Party has screamed about the border, Fox News screams about it everyday, then Biden said, 'Okay, I'm ready for a deal, you got me, I'm taking the knee.' How do they tell him no?”
‘[With] every dollar they don't give to Ukraine it enhances Republican chances of them pointing the finger and saying, 'Look at what Joe Biden did, this is Joe Biden's war. Look at all the money he gave to it and it just fell apart,'” said Thomas. “If you were a Trump, or you're the Republicans, you want that border to be a festering wound for the next five months so you can point to that wound [and say], 'We tried to get Joe Biden to do something. He just doesn't want to do anything on the border.'”
