GOP senators bash Biden’s immigration policies after trip to border: ‘Increased threat for terrorist attack’

GOP Sens. John Barrasso, John Cornyn, Ted Cruz and Pete Ricketts railed against the Biden administration's border policies as migrants continue to enter the U.S. illegally. 

"We have just returned from our southern border, and it is painfully clear that with Joe Biden's open border policy, our country is really at an increased threat for a terrorist attack," said Barrasso, the Senate Republican Conference chairman, during a press conference Tuesday.

Border Patrol agents seized immigrants carrying with them explosive devices "tailored for terrorism," he said. 

Following the border trip last Thursday and Friday, Ricketts added that the country is "opening ourselves up for a terrorist attack."
