U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, appeared on Fox News’ "The Ingraham Angle" on Wednesday night, where he responded to host Laura Ingraham’s assertion that "sheer lawlessness" had developed in Del Rio, Texas.
U.S. SEN. TED CRUZ, R-TEXAS: What’s happening in Del Rio really illustrates the cause-and-effect of the Biden border disaster. To really understand it, you have to go back to Sept. 8.
On Sept. 8, under that bridge, there were, on any given day, between 700 and 1,000 illegal immigrants, mostly from Haiti. And that had been the consistent flow for some time, as between 700 and 1,000 a day were crossing illegally at that point.
On Sept. 8 there were roughly 900 Haitians that were scheduled to be on airplanes to go back to Haiti and the Biden administration canceled those flights. They said, ‘We’re not gonna deport you. You can stay here. You can remain in America.’
