Border braces for record chaos as Biden ends pandemic shutdown policy - Washington Times

Sen. Bill Hagerty was with Border Patrol agents Friday when news of the Biden administration’s decision to cancel the pandemic emergency and reopen the border to illegal immigrants was announced at evening muster.
