Ken Paxton Scorches Biden Administration for ‘Aiding and Abetting’ Mexican Drug Cartels

The debate over the border crisis is still in full effect as the surge of foreigners crossing the border continues. The Biden administration has been under constant criticism for its inability, or unwillingness, to do anything to solve the problem.

Texas, along with other border states, has borne the brunt of the problem. The state’s officials have been vocally critical of the White House’s negligence when it comes to securing the border. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who has been an ardent critic of the president, accused the administration of “aiding and abetting” Mexican drug cartels at the southern border during an appearance on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures.”

During his appearance, Paxton explained that the border crisis is “costing us billions of dollars” and that it has caused “increased human trafficking, drug trafficking.”

We have literally thousands of kids dying from fentanyl overdoses that don’t have to die because we have the cartels having an easy line into Texas and an easy line to get into the country. And so it is having a significant impact, and it is going to spread beyond Texas, beyond the border states. It is an American problem. And I think it’s clearly caused by the Biden administration.

Paxton also criticized the Biden administration for hampering efforts to prevent illegal immigration, noting that it is “cutting down our fences” and “cutting down our wire.”
