JULIO ROSAS SLAMS BIDEN'S BORDER WALL HALT: CONTRACTORS BEING PAID TO NOT WORK
REP. DAN CRENSHAW: I think there's very clear examples of a deliberate dereliction of constitutional duty on the part of the secretary of Homeland Security -- to protect this country. It actually is very little to do with the cancelation of the border wall contracts.

Those laws might be our asylum process laws, those laws might be internal enforcement inside where deportations are necessary, those laws might be simply crossing the border illegally.
