Texas is a border state, and Rep. August Pfluger, R-Texas, joins "The Daily Signal Podcast" to discuss how illegal immigration is affecting it.
"With my military background, 20 years in the Air Force, it\'s incumbent upon commanders to visit troops in the field," Pfluger told The Daily Signal.
"We\'ve asked the commander in chief to visit the Border Patrol agents, because what stood out to me was, when you talk to these folks, they\'re trying to the best of their ability to do their job to secure our country, and they don\'t have the resources," the freshman Texas lawmaker said. "In fact, this administration is cutting resources, halting construction on the border wall, not giving the technology that they need."
Pfluger also shares his take on the 178,622 illegal immigrants who were detained along the U.S.-Mexico border in April. That\'s the highest number of monthly apprehensions in at least two decades.
He also discusses how demand for gasoline is skyrocketing after the Colonial Pipeline was hacked by a criminal organization called DarkSide.
