"Speaker Johnson's Border Funding Feud with White House Escalates Amid Bipartisan Blame Game"
House Speaker Mike Johnson is refuting White House accusations that Republicans are anti-border security and responsible for proposed cuts to Border Patrol staffing amidst a significant migrant crisis. Johnson claims Republicans have consistently voted for increased funding for border security, contrary to the administration's assertions. The White House maintains that Republicans have obstructed President Biden's comprehensive immigration reform and border security funding, including efforts to combat fentanyl smuggling. Fact-checkers have challenged the White House's claims about staffing cuts, and negotiations continue over border security funding and policy.
