Speaker Johnson aims to maintain momentum while advocating for the Border Security Bill.

House Speaker Mike Johnson Takes Action‌ on Border ‍Security

House Speaker Mike Johnson wasted no time in making his mark after assuming the role from Kevin McCarthy. In his first act as speaker,⁣ Johnson brought a resolution‍ to the floor condemning the​ recent Hamas terror attacks and‌ reaffirming U.S. support for Israel.

This week, Johnson is focusing on ⁤the country’s southern border. In‌ an interview on Fox Business Network’s “Kudlow,” he expressed concerns about the flow ⁣of illegal immigrants and the potential threat they pose to Americans.

Johnson pointed out that even⁤ Democrats, including Department of ​Homeland Security ⁢Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, are acknowledging the risk of international terrorists entering the U.S. through the porous ‌border.

FBI Director Christopher Wray ⁣also warned Congress about the increased‌ risk of terror ⁣attacks in the‍ country. Johnson emphasized that keeping the border open allows dangerous individuals to enter, creating chaos and putting Americans at risk.

Johnson criticized Democrats ​for ignoring the border crisis until recently and vowed to take⁢ action. He shared a clip ‌of the interview ⁤on social media, ⁣promoting a ⁣bill to secure‌ the border, finish the border wall, ⁢end the “catch and release”⁣ policy, and⁤ reinstate the “remain in Mexico”​ policy.

The border crisis ⁢is a direct result of ​failed policy decisions by the Biden Admin – not a lack of funding.

• Finish the wall
• End catch ⁢and release
• End abuse of ​parole authority
• Reform the broken ‌asylum ⁣system
• Restart Remain in Mexico pic.twitter.com/8XZdqJih5x

The Secure the Border Act of 2023, the bill Johnson ‌is ​promoting,‌ was passed by the House in May. ‌Johnson called it‍ the most comprehensive border security legislation in decades and urged the Senate to take it ⁤up immediately.

A‌ Note from Our Deputy ⁢Managing Editor:

I walked ⁤into the‍ office one morning and noticed something strange. Half ⁢of The Western Journal’s readership⁢ was missing.

It ​had finally happened. Facebook had⁤ flipped THE switch.

Maybe it ⁤was because we wrote about ivermectin. Or election integrity. Or the Jan. 6 detainees.​ Or ballot mules.

Whatever‌ the reason, I immediately knew what to do. We had ‍to turn to you because, frankly, we know you are the only ones we can trust.

Can you help? Every donation to The ⁣Western Journal goes directly​ to funding our team of story researchers, writers and editors who doggedly⁢ pursue the truth and expose the corrupt elites.

Can⁤ I count on you ​for a small donation? We⁤ operate ​on a shoestring compared to other news media companies, so I ​can personally promise that not a penny of ‍ your donation will be wasted.

We will use every single ⁤cent to fight against the lies and ​corruption in high places. And ⁤as long as we have your help, we will‍ never give up.

Sincerely,

Josh Manning

How are Democrats, such as Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, acknowledging ⁣the risk ⁣of international terrorists entering ⁣the United States through the porous border?

⁣ With House Speaker ‌Mike Johnson‍ taking swift action on various issues since assuming his role, one of his primary concerns ⁣lies with the country’s southern ⁣border. In an interview on Fox Business Network’s “Kudlow,” Johnson expressed his worries about the influx ​of illegal immigrants and the potential threats they‍ pose to American citizens.

What is particularly noteworthy⁣ is‍ that even Democrats, including ​Department of Homeland Security Secretary ‍Alejandro Mayorkas,⁢ are‍ acknowledging the risk of international terrorists entering the ​United States through​ the porous border. ‍FBI Director Christopher Wray also warned⁢ Congress about ⁢the⁢ increased⁤ risk of terror attacks in the country.⁣ Johnson stressed that keeping the‍ border open allows dangerous individuals to enter, which creates chaos and puts Americans at risk.

Moreover, Johnson criticized Democrats for their failure to address the border crisis ⁣until recently. In response, he shared a clip of the aforementioned⁢ interview on social media, where ‌he promoted a bill aimed at securing the ⁤border, completing the⁢ border wall, ending the “catch and release” policy, and reinstating ​the “remain in Mexico” policy.

The⁢ Secure ⁢the Border‌ Act of 2023, the bill Johnson ‍is ‌advocating for, was ‌passed by the House in May. Johnson has described it as the ⁤most comprehensive border ⁢security legislation in decades and has urged the Senate to ‌take⁢ it up immediately.

In other news, a ​peculiar incident occurred at The Western Journal, ⁢where half of ‍its readership seemed to​ have vanished overnight. This turn of events was attributed to Facebook making changes​ to their algorithms, affecting the ⁢visibility of certain content.

As House Speaker Mike Johnson ‍tackles the‌ important issue of ⁣border security, it is evident that action needs ​to be taken ‍to address the‌ potential‌ threats and‌ risks associated with illegal​ immigration. With bipartisan acknowledgment of these concerns,⁢ it is crucial for legislation like ⁣the‌ Secure the Border Act of 2023 to be given prompt​ attention and⁤ consideration, ensuring the safety of American⁢ citizens remains a ‍top priority.
