Democrats now want a hard cap on the number of beds at ICE detention facilities. How is that a serious or defensible position? They are openly trying to hamstring law enforcement and make it easier for thousands of migrants (some with criminal records) to be released into the US.

Democrats applaud sending $1.8 billion to Iran under Obama but can’t even find that much to secure America’s border. If this is the best they can do, it’s obvious they have no interest in serious border security.
At this point it’s clear: POTUS should take executive action.

Now Democrats would rather shut down government than let ICE detain illegal aliens, including violent criminals. Amazing! Democrats have become the party of Open Border radicals & extremists.
