President Biden “doesn’t know there is a situation” at the southern border, Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) told KWAM’s “Wake Up Memphis” with Ben Deeter and Todd Starnes.
“It’s compounded because our vice president literally ignores the situation,” Burchett said.
The Tennessee representative gave a firsthand account of the border, just days after his visit, noting that “illegal immigration is not good for anybody.”He added, “The border is a complete disaster.”
On his trip, he was accompanied by Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) and Rep. Eric Burlison (R-MO):
