Chaos broke out at the southern border on March 21 when a group of more than 100 illegal immigrants bum-rushed several Texas National Guardsmen to cross into the United States. The New York Post was on site in El Paso, Texas, and caught the attempted invasion on video.
The clip showed a group of adult men wearing winter clothes ripping the razor-wire fencing away to allow the large group through. Five National Guardsmen attempted to contain the crowd but were soon overpowered.
The illegal immigrants began running toward the border gate and screaming at the guardsmen on the other side. The shocking scene spread like wildfire on social media, catching the attention of several lawmakers.
Senator J.D. Vance, R-Ohio, shared the video on X, writing, “Every American should watch this. We shouldn’t fund Joe Biden’s government until he does something to address this. The power of the purse is our only leverage.”
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., expressed her frustration at House Speaker Mike Johnson for “funding the government that has created this invasion.” She pointed out that the House has “the power of the purse, which means we can control what the entire government does.” She argued that America needs “a Speaker of the House who will fight to secure America’s border at all cost!”
Greene blasted Johnson for passing “a trillion dollar Democrat wish list that continues the border invasion, funds the weaponized government, and breaks our own conference rules.” She ended her post with “I’m done with this one,” indicating that she had lost faith in Johnson’s leadership.
While discussing how President Trump “is building this phenomenal, middle class, working folks coalition,” Fox News’ Larry Kudlow gave an overview of the economic turmoil Americans have faced under Joe Biden.
He played the viral video as he detailed the soaring inflation, decrease in real wages, as well as high interest rates on home loans, vehicles, and credit cards in Joe Biden’s America.
Kudlow said that Americans were dealing with “economic pressures” and fears of no “law and order,” adding, “and you have pictures of an invasion of the United States by a lawless mob. It is absolutely astounding, and I do not think Biden will lift one finger to change that.”
