Rand Paul to Mayorkas: ‘You Have All the Powers that You Need’ to Secure the Border But You Chose Not To

EXCERPT:

PAUL: "All of the laws that existed under the Trump administration still exist under the Biden administration. You have all the powers that you need. The laws on -- on accepting migrants -- migrants to this country says the -- the executive may admit migrants, doesn't say the executive branch shall admit migrants. You can simply say, 'We're full up. We've got too many criminals. And we've got the horrendous thing that happened to Laken Riley and to others. And we're just full, and we're just -- we're going to stop taking migrants for a while until we can sort out the mess we have at the border.' You have every power to do that now. You just don't utilize those powers. But it isn't about really being good at utilizing the power, we just think you're not obeying the law.”
