WASHINGTON — President Biden insisted Tuesday that “I’ve done all I can do” to secure the US-Mexico border — prompting House Speaker Mike Johnson to say that the claim was “simply not true.”
“I’ve done all I can do. Just give me the power. I’ve asked from the very day I got into office,” the 81-year-old president told a reporter on the White House lawn as he departed for a fundraising jaunt to South Florida.
“Give me the Border Patrol, give me the people, the judges — give me the people who can stop this and make it work right,” he added.
