Former Texas sheriff: US basically reopening the border to illegal immigrants with Biden agenda – Fox News

TheBiden administration's immigration policies amount to "reopening the border" to illegal aliens and creating the conditions for anillegal immigration spike, a retiredTexas sheriff warned on"Fox & Friends"Tuesday.

"We do not have the infrastructure in place to take care of those thousands and thousands of people that want to come here," former Rockwall County Sheriff Harold Eavenson told co-hostAinsley Earhardt. "And some of them have criminal histories and they bring that with them into our country as well."

Eavenson asserted that the federal government has a duty toprovide security for its citizens by enforcing immigration law.

He added that the United States is "gullible" for taking in immigrants that their own countries do not want to be responsible for and buying into the "philosophy" of prioritizing immigrants over the safety of citizens.

Bidensimmigration orders include halting deportations for at least 100 days, ending the "Remain in Mexico" policy, resuming catch and release, and ending border wall construction.
