don t expect secretary mayorkas to call it a crisis when he meets with officials in brownville, texas where according to laredo s mayor they plan to ask the secretary for a moratorium on migrant releases due to the spike in covid cases among migrants. harris: i can t wait to hear the answer. how he will handle that. griff jenkins. thank you. dhs secretary mayorkas today at the border as griff was just telling us and so that s anticipated as arizona congressman andy biggs has drawn up articles of impeachment against mayorkas writing certainly joe biden and kamala harris have a substantial amount of blame with this. they are the ones who campaigned on this but mayorkas has not pushed back at all. so he is the guy who is responsible for the border security and national security and it is a disaster down there, end quote. here now reaction in focus, texas congressman chip roy.
border. americans and texans are in danger and hospitals overrun. you have seen the photos and i hope you show them to the people that we ve been putting out there that border patrol agents are sharing. where is aoc, where are all the cries about kids in cages that we heard two years ago? where are all the cries about kids drinking out of toilets, those were lies. tom hoe man can tell you the truth about what happened with the border trying to deal with crisis. we were dealing with it humanely. but now we have a massive problem at our border where you have these facilities that are overrun, thousands of people in places meant for hundreds. i posted a video the other day of a truck getting packed with dozens, maybe 100 people and they are shoved in there because that s what the cartels do. bring them across, shove them in a truck and they re in a pressure cooker in the heat of texas on the highway and they are covid positive. bad for them and americans when they get here. you saw the ac
congressman, this cannot be said plainly enough. complicated by and plus covid. why doesn t this administration care about as much as us being exposed to covid by people rolling into our country, some as much as 50% of the groups covid positive as about what we do? thanks for having me on. acan t agree more with what border patrol chief scott said with respect to this being a national security crisis. it is a direct impact on our communities in texas. secretary mayorkas and president biden and vice president harris are completely m.i.a. frankly it s purposeful. they are purposely ignoring their duty to defend the borders of the united states. when i last visited you on your show it was june 30th if i remember correctly when president trump was joining governor abbott at the border. we talked about the crisis then. since that time we ve now had
i believe it will be over that. brand-new fox news poll numbers show americans aren t giving the president high marks on handling the border crisis. 57% disapprove of biden s job performance on immigration. that s up from last month. only 35% approve. that s down from last month. meanwhile, as border patrol chief ortiz prepares to take over on sunday, the outgoing border patrol chief rodney scott posted a farewell message to the men and women in green to their youtube channel and chief scott not mincing word of the conditions they are truly facing. watch. over and over again i see other people talk about our mission, your mission in the context of it being immigration or the current crisis today being an immigration crisis. i challenge you and i firmly believe it is a national security crisis.
we re the ones in danger and i m also asking to impeach mayorkas for failing to defend the border of the united states. harris: a new new york post op-ed says biden s border disaster is key to the texas covid crisis speaking of what you were talking about. it has gotten so bad the city of laredo, texas is refusing to take more migrants after discovering 40% tested positive for covid. spikes above that but this is the highest most recent. last week mcallen reported a 15% positivity rate among migrants. you will wilt under the pressure of that if those people start to present sick. our country, how will we take this? we shouldn t have to. frankly, the migrants shouldn t be being exposed to this danger. that s what is happening on the
