Crenshaw Doesn't Hold Anything Back, Unleashes on 'Every Single Dem' Though Democrats and many of their media enablers continue to deny it, it has become patently obvious that there is a major crisis at the United States’ southern border, of both the humanitarian and national security variety. There is at least one politician who has a remarkably clear view of the situation at the border, however — Republican Texas Rep. Dan Crenshaw. The congressman just shared with Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo his evidence-based belief that his colleagues on the left are purposely ignoring, if not actively encouraging, the continuation of that crisis by virtue of their support for “open borders.” The Texas congressman and Navy SEAL combat veteran also said the “open borders” status quo is quite unfair to legal immigrants and legitimate asylum seekers around the world who, despite attempting to enter the U.S. the proper way, have been, in essence, pushed to the back of the line by the Democrats’ open invitation to illegal immigrants at the southern border. Our readers who paid attention during the lengthy government shutdown at the beginning of the year, which was for all intents and purposes a standoff between Democrats and Trump on border security policy, featured Democrats being overtly resistant to a Republican proposal for more detention beds at immigration facilities at or near the border. That stance hasn’t changed over the interceding months, despite accumulating reports detailing just how overwhelmed the border facilities already are. In fact, a new request for border security funding by the White House — none of which has anything to do with the left’s hated border wall, by the way — called for an increase in detention beds from 40,000 to at least 52,000. However, Democrats have taken the exact opposite approach and are calling for a cap on the total number of detention beds at 16,500. Given the fact that about 100,000 illegal immigrants are being caught crossing the border per month — and an unknown number make it across without being apprehended — there is little denying that Democrats want to see all of those illicit crossers permitted entry into the U.S., again, effectively making the southern border wide open and inviting for any and all who want to come, legally or otherwise.
