Former President Trump returned to the U.S.-Mexico border Wednesday, taking direct aim at President Biden for the surge this year in migrants crossing the barrier.
"There has never been a border so secure as the southern border that we had, and now it’s opened up," the former president emphasized as he sat down for a briefing from Republican Gov. Greg Abbott of Texas and Lone Star State law enforcement and border officials.
And slamming Biden, who reversed key immigration policies implemented during the Trump administration, the former president charged that "now we have an open, really dangerous, border. More dangerous than it’s ever been in the history of our country, and we better go back fast."
Biden has ended many of the restrictive immigration polices implemented by Trump, who repeatedly pledged during his successful 2016 campaign for the White House to build a border wall and make Mexico pay for the construction. Trump made border security a top policy during his administration and in 2019 declared a state of emergency in order to divert federal funds heading to the military to pay for the border wall.
Besides halting construction of Trump’s wall, Biden also ended a program that forced migrants to stay in Mexico as they waited for resolution to their U.S. asylum cases, as he aims to follow through on his 2020 campaign pledge for a more humane immigration system.

Trump is a true civilian President, not those recycled politicians.
Even so, he made a few mistakes, he should have been tougher on the Dems because they are like demons!
I am not a Hannity fan, but his’town hall’ was well worth watching last night....
.....it brought such a smile to see President Trump walk out...
He looked GREAT!
They will let in as many as they can then make them legal. Legal to vote. Will be done before 2024. Only hope is fraud is shown and Trump put back in office. He can close the border and catch them and send them home.
I'm with you on this one.
I DVRed it and watched it this morning, and while Trump looked great, hannity is getting fat {I guess his 2 hour a day kung fu fighting workouts are history}.
Since I no longer watch or listen to hannity I didn't realize how old he looks.
I loved it when Trump said that the turtle needs to go.
1 million known and 1 million not known MS13 winks.
Border now operating like one great big MexicO’s people processing and distribution center.
