"A lie will go round the world while truth is pulling its boots on. -Charles Haddon Spurgeon 1855," Lankford wrote on X Tuesday. "I encourage people to read the border security bill before they judge the border security bill. I also advise people not to believe everything you read on the internet," he added.
Lankford was referencing reports on leaks claiming that the negotiated border deal includes allowing 5,000 immigrants per day to enter the U.S. and issuing work permits to migrants who U.S. authorities release into the U.S. from the border.
The source behind the leaks was the conservative Immigration Accountability Project, who tagged Lankford in a post about details they claimed were part of the border agreement.
