Summary

Rep. Paul Gosar, R-Ariz., says his state is being overwhelmed by the crisis at the southern border. "We're being overrun," Gosar tells The Daily Signal. "I mean, I was down in Yuma a week and a half ago, and we saw 'coyotes' just bring children over and just give themselves up. One 'coyote,' in the evening, she brought in two young boys, [ages] 7 and 10, and five girls, 11 to 17," he says. "None of them were related. They were being overwhelmed. And you saw the mayor of Gila County basically say they have 'no room at the inn.' They have run out of resources," the Arizona Republican adds. A "coyote" is a slang term for a person who smuggles illegal immigrants across the U.S.-Mexico border. Gosar also discusses Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey's recent announcement that he will deploy the National Guard to the border, as well as the political battle over an election audit in Maricopa County. We also cover these stories: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention releases new guidelines on mask-wearing during the pandemic. John Kerry, President Joe Biden's special envoy for climate change, denies he disclosed secret information concerning Israeli military actions in Syria during a conversation with an Iranian official. Idaho lawmakers reject education programs that include critical race theory. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. Learn more about your ad choices.
