Texas has spent 230 million dollars policing their border.
Name a dollar amount that would satisfy you?

I don’t know if you meant to ping me on this or not, since I have not slammed him for the border, but actually I’m glad you asked.
The dollar amount is fine, but what was missing was a response like this to Santorum:
“Look Senator, it’s real easy for you to sit up there in Pennsylvania where the only foreigners you have to worry about are New York liberals - and criticize Texas for the border. Senator, our Federal Government is supposed to police the border but because they wont do it, including while you were in the Senate, we have had to do the best we can - and had to overcome harrassment and lawsuits and protests to do that. So until you’ve ever actually been in charge of anything or ever lived with 1200 miles on the border, I invite you to respectfully STFU”
Ok, you would have to tune it down some, but you get the drift. If he had said that, he would be in much better shape today.
Can you tell me, and perhaps Chris Wallace of Fox News, what there is in the law that prevents state and local law enforcement officials from assisting in the apprehension and prosecution of folks who are violating federal law?
There seems to be plenty that REQUIRES them to do so!
