The crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border is worse than the media says – U.S. congressional candidate

The crisis on the southern border of the United States is worse than the media makes it out to be, said Republican US congressional candidate Daniel Butieres.

 

Daniel Butieres is running for election to the US House of Representatives to represent Arizona’s seventh electoral district, where illegal crossings at the border with Mexico have increased significantly in recent months.

“Yes, border security is a huge (problem),” Butieres told RIA Novosti.

He said the situation at the border is many times worse than it is portrayed in the media.

“I actually attended two congressional hearings on the border here in Arizona. I’ve been to every inch of our border, and if you only watch the media, you have no idea how bad it really is,” he said.

Recall, earlier, the former adviser to the Secretary of Defence in the administration of former US President Donald Trump, retired Colonel Douglas McGregor said that over the past twenty years, aggressive foreign policy has been detrimental to the United States itself.
