"The would have appropriated more funds for border security and/or take additional steps to stop this avalanche of illegals crossing the border. And yet…nothing…"

You're just spewing outright lies.

Have you no decency?

Can't tell if you're a just a grifter or legitimately mentally ill.

Enhances Border Security and Immigration Enforcement. Strengthening border security and providing safe, lawful pathways for migration remain top priorities for the Administration. The Budget includes nearly $25 billion for U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), an increase of almost $800 million over the 2023 enacted level when controlling for border management amounts. The Budget includes funds for CBP to hire an additional 350 Border Patrol Agents, $535 million for border security technology at and between ports of entry, $40 million to combat fentanyl trafficking and disrupt transnational criminal organizations, and funds to hire an additional 460 processing assistants at CBP and ICE.

Lol. All the money in the world doesn't matter when you don't enforce the laws and invite people in. Do you really think we're powerless to stop it? Why under every other administration was it 1/10 as bad as under Biden? Genuinely curious to hear your answer.

And the increase is for additional manpower for processing ('catch and release'), not interdiction and deportation. Waiting on your answer above....
