Dan Crenshaw Confronts Hillary Clinton After She Claims Republicans Are to Blame for the Border Crisis

Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX-2) has been relentless in his fight to set the record straight on the humanitarian crisis at the southern border.

He’s called out Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY-14) over her absurd comparison of the border detention centers to Nazi concentration camps.

He has slammed the media’s one-sided coverage of the issue, noting that journalists don’t seem to be asking why Democratic critics of the border crisis (like AOC) refuse to vote on the much-needed funding that would help alleviate the problem.

Over the weekend, Crenshaw again stepped to the Twitter microphone after twice-failed candidate for president Hillary Clinton tried to blame Republicans for the issues at the detention centers:

Two-year-olds in detention. Children forced to take care of other children. Not enough food or water.

Demand accountability from your Republican representatives for allowing this administration to cage children and keep them in unconscionable conditions. https://t.co/q67l0dk2pl

Crenshaw was not having any of it:

What insane gaslighting.

You know Dems have refused to support funding for resources at the border & have offered no solutions.

So tell us, if you were President, how would you manage hundreds of thousands of people illegally crossing our border and dragging children with them? https://t.co/uzNWCtP83b

In another post, Clinton helped liberals fundraise off the issue:

There are amazing groups at the border and beyond doing critical work to defend the rights of immigrant and refugee children.

If you can, please chip in to support a few of them today. https://t.co/frm9HKTVmj

The freshman Congressman called her out:

After blatantly lying, you’re also fundraising for “rights of immigrants” using ActBlue, the Democratic Party fundraising platform, so that donor data is collected for the Democrats.

Absolutely shameless. https://t.co/JUYZda7hJl

Is the impasse on border crisis funding close to being over? Maybe:

Leaders in the House and Senate want to approve spending at least $4 billion more to address the influx of migrants and their humanitarian needs at the U.S.-Mexico border before the July Fourth recess.

Bills in the two chambers differ, however, raising doubts about whether there will be a resolution on President Donald Trump’s desk this month.

The Senate plan is bipartisan, though some Democratic appropriators have expressed concern about it moving to the floor without changes.

Stay tuned.
