Ron DeSantis says Joe Biden's policies could lead to Iranian attacks

Gov. Ron DeSantis says former President Joe Biden’s open border policy could lead to dire consequences for Americans from violent Iranian assets.

“They operate through these proxy groups, through these militia groups, through Hezbollah, through all this stuff,” DeSantis said of Iran at Clearwater’s Island Way Grill.

“Who knows who they sent across the southern border during Biden’s administration? We don’t know.”

DeSantis has made the case that the previous President’s border policy would lead to terror stateside before.

The 9/11 perps entered the US through normal channels on visas and in some cases with fraudulently-obtained passports. They didn't sneak through any southern borders, and there never were "open" borders under any administration.

6. Of course Trunp's decision to tear up the agreement with Iran in his 1st term, and bombings in his second don't count.

Right now this is all wishful thinking on the part of DeSantis.

She wants her boots back.

I trusted President Biden's policies to keep us safe, and he did. trump encourages terrorism, at home and abroad.

But here we see again how Republican propaganda is like mold spores, spreading and embedding into every surface, reappearing again and again despite all efforts to clear away the stain.
