Rep. Dan Meuser, R-Pa., ripped his congressional colleagues who are reluctant to call out the dangers of reversing Title 42.
They're just so out of touch. And, you know, the idea that any Democrat that does not speak out -- or any member of Congress for that matter -- against the lifting of Title 42, literally will have blood on their hands. This must be extended, it must be continued. We have fentanyl deaths being caused by the number of refugees, illegal immigrants coming in and that will triple, if not quadruple, if this gets lifted. That's not conjecture.
Any Democrat or Republican who's been to the border, has heard the CBP tell you exactly that -- that the number of illegals coming in would triple with the lifting of Title 42 -- and that means the drugs as well. You know, I met with Mayorkas last week, and I asked him for a plan. ‘What is your plan to curb, to reduce, to control the border?’ It was tongue dancing at its worst. As well, I asked him, ‘Where is the war on drug cartels?’ And, frankly, he made a note and wrote it down.
