Rep. Babin to Newsmax: ‘Never Been So Apprehensive’ on National Security

Rep. Brian Babin, whose home state of Texas is fighting legal battles to protect its border with Mexico, said Thursday on Newsmax that he’s “never been so apprehensive about our national security than I am here under the Biden administration.”

“The Democrats are willing to shut our government down, and here we are trying to keep our government open,” the Texas Republican said on “Wake Up America.” “They’re willing to shut our government down to keep the border open. This is what’s going on in our border today under the Biden administration.”

His comments come in response to an interview given by Rep. Joaquin Castro, D-Texas, who told MSNBC that the Texas border law, which the state used to take over border enforcement is a “right-wing, reactionary piece of policy,” that it’s unconstitutional, and called it an “absolute disaster” that violates civil rights.
