When asked recently by NBC News whether the border is secure, Vice President Kamala Harris, the Biden Administration’s “border czar,” said, "We have a secure border in that that is a priority for any nation."

Congressman Morgan Griffith (R-VA) last night spoke on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives about stopping the fentanyl crisis.
