Most Republican senators signed onto a letter to the Government Accountability Office accusing Joe Biden of 'unlawful' acts in stopping construction of Donald Trump's southern border wall on Day One of his presidency.
'[I]n one of the first official acts of his presidency, Joseph Biden suspended border wall construction and ordered a freeze of funds provided by Congress for that purpose,' the 40 senators wrote. 'In the weeks that followed, operational control of our southern border was compromised and a humanitarian and national security crisis has ensued.'
The group, led by Ranking Member of the Appropriations Subcommittee on Homeland Security Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia, claims the president can not provide

Why do these stories always come from the UK?
Our Media is useless unless they are attacking republicans.
I don't believe stopping the wall funding caused the problem.
Biden caused the problem by running for President telling the world he was going to do away with stopping illegals from coming to this country.

The President is the Chief Executive Officer of the United States. It is his job to enforce the laws of the United States as legislated by Congress. If he is not carrying out that responsibility, i.e., not enforcing the immigration laws of the government, but actually circumventing them, refusing to carry them out, is that not grounds for removing him, impeaching him from office? Anyone in the House filing articles of impeachment?

It's about time they did something, and if it is unlawful, then do something about it!
Lord, it is your country too.

Our country cannot be defended against foreign invaders. They are welcome.
Our Capitol, however, is surrounded by a fence and defended by the National Guard.
This is by express order of *president *Biden.
Are the House and Senate office buildings defended by fences?
Who else gets a fence?
Does Pelosi get an armed guard when she flies to CA?
Does she fly on an armored transport, and receive a military escort in SF?
Apparently fences are only used to guard Democrats.
Since this is now a Banana Republic, when do we get our bananas?

They broke the law to get a fraudulent potus in the White House. Republicans? So we express surprise the new progressive Democrat-controlled Federal agencies continue to break laws?
Thank you #3. Writing a letter is a waste of time. Articles of impeachment and any other lawful Constitutional measures should be employed now.

Big fat hairy deal!!!
They are democrats - nothing will happen!
The government is crooked, the judges are corrupt (or terrified), the 'news' media spouts democrat propaganda. Why should anything change?
Why do you think they want to disarm the public?
Read a book called 'Unintended Consequences' to see where we are going.

A wall serves little purpose when the gates are open wide.
I pray every night to my Maker to help me to stop hating dim politicians and their useful idiots in the media

WOW. The republicans sent a letter of complaint about the mess at the border. Big deal
Actions speak louder then words. Where is our military protecting Americans from invaders.
It’s plain to see this is all in the plans of Sorosobama plan to bring America down.

Re #11, the multi-page letter on Senate letterhead is embedded (in pdf) and can be scrolled through, read in its entirety, and the signatures read.

And many RINO's were duped into believing the "unity" calling by Biden. Utah Sen. Mike Lee did not sign the letter. Alaska Sen. Lisa "Bridge To Nowhere" Murkowski did not sign the letter. Deep State swamp rats.
