Ron DeSantis accuses Biden of bowing to border cartels while 'sitting around doing nothing'

Ron DeSantis accused President Biden of "doing nothing" as the crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border worsens, saying drug cartels essentially own the border.

"The U.S. is supposed to be the world's leading superpower, and yet we can't even maintain control of our own southern border?" DeSantis said. "The Mexican drug cartels have more to say about what goes on at the southern border than our own U.S. government does."

"Where is this president's energy? Where is his vigor? Where is his commitment to the cause? He is just sitting around doing nothing of importance or nothing of note while the American people suffer," He continued. "There is just no rule of law. It's been tossed out the window."
