Blake Masters, the Republican nominee for U.S. Senate in Arizona, ripped Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) and President Joe Biden for the disaster on the U.S.-Mexico Border, asserting they “turned over” the border “to murderous drug cartels.”
“Masters, who visited the border final week, spoke with Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel on the newest episode of the Real America podcast, which was released Thursday.”
“So it’s an entire open border at this level.. and so they prompted this disaster,” Masters, referring to Biden and Kelly, advised McDaniel. “I’m not going to faux it was ever good on the southern border, however man, underneath President Trump, it was fairly darn good. It was underneath management.”
Kamala Harris says our border is safe.
But @JWLines and I simply noticed a pair dozen Peruvians Indians and Cubans stroll into our nation from a cartel stash home just a few hundred meters south of the border. Most received’t be deported.

“You see numerous border wall, however in case you drive just a few miles in a single path, you see gaps within the border wall, and the cartels are usually not silly, they know the place these gaps are,” Masters, who’s endorsed by former President Donald Trump, went on to clarify. “It nearly helps them filter individuals by means of.”
Breitbart Texas obtained a leaked Customs and Border Patrol doc exhibiting there have been upwards of 181,000 migrants illegally getting into the United States by means of the U.S.-Mexico border in August. The doc was obtained from a person inside the company who spoke on the situation of anonymity.
McDaniel identified the rampant human and drug trafficking going down, prompting Masters to observe that migrants, together with youngsters, “are being horribly abused, bought into sexual slavery.”
One official advised me that closing this specific hole had the impact of shutting down a recognized cartel staging website, the “rape tree”, a grove 300m behind these containers, the place the coyotes would tie up and molest ladies and kids migrants one final time earlier than they crossed over. https://t.co/eNmaQEtDIu

Masters went on to say:
And the fentanyl that’s coming by means of, it’s killing American youngsters, prefer it actually is that this lawless zone, and Biden and Mark Kelly have turned over our entire southern border to the murderous drug cartels. The cartels are in cost, and our border patrol is underfunded, understaffed, and so they’re actually not allowed by the Biden Administration to do their jobs.
Masters later bashed Kelly, who ran in 2020 as a reasonable, for “voting like Bernie Sanders” and famous he may have used his vote in a 50-50 Senate to take a hardline stance towards Biden as leverage for border safety:
Mark Kelly, he’s exhibiting up on t.v. pretending to care about border safety. ‘I’m apprehensive about inflation, I’m apprehensive about border safety.’ It’s like, Mark you’ve been within the Senate voting like Bernie Sanders to prop up Joe Biden’s failed agenda, and Mark Kelly may have stopped it. I’ve to remind those that one senator in a deadlocked senate – Biden wanted Mark Kelly’s vote. Mark Kelly a 12 months in the past may have mentioned, ‘Mr. President you’re not getting a single factor from me, not a single vote for an appointee, no funding, except and till we get some border safety.’ And he had that leverage, Biden would have had to end the wall. Biden would have had to rent extra border patrol brokers. But Mark Kelly didn’t do it.
Earlier within the podcast, Masters acknowledged that his opponent “pretends to be unbiased” and slammed him for voting for Biden’s agenda 94 p.c of the time.
“It’s a lie… He votes in lockstep with Joe Biden,” mentioned the candidate. “He’s Biden’s side-kick; he’s Biden’s most loyal lieutenant within the Senate.”
