ICYMI: Donalds Joins Piers Morgan Uncensored

WASHINGTON –  Congressman Byron Donalds (R-FL) joined Piers Morgan Uncensored on the United Kingdom's Talk TV to discuss the ongoing crisis at America's Southern border and the debate over additional funding for Ukraine.

Secure our border. Get that business done:

"First of all, Piers, I think that's the wrong way to even phrase the question. We're not prepared to let Vladimir Putin win anything. The only thing we're saying is that you actually have to take care of issues at home first. If you actually do that, there'd be a lot of ability to move Ukrainian aid in Congress. I have some disagreements in that. Number one is there's no accountability with this money whatsoever. Number two, Joe Biden has had no view of what this mission actually is. He wants to cover-up his own derelictions with his disastrous foreign policy that has led us to this point right now, not just in Ukraine, but in my view, other areas around the globe. But House Republicans and now Senate Republicans, our mission is clear: Secure our border. Get that business done. It makes no sense to give Ukraine upwards of $200 billion from the American Treasury, while our nation is overrun by some number, some estimates of six-to-eight million migrants. It makes no sense."

Our responsibility right now is to hold the line and make sure our border is secure:

"To be truthful, nobody trusts this administration. They're flagrantly violating border security law. Not immigration law, this is border security law...Not with Joe Biden as President, because the man is the 'Master of Disaster.' You see everything that is happening in our country Piers. So Piers, Piers, our responsibility right now is to hold the line and make sure our border is secure, because Joe Biden is such a terrible leader, he won't even take care of first thing's first here in America. So if he won't do that, we have to force him to do that."

Until then, there's nothing to talk about:

"Piers, let's go back in time. Was Vladimir Putin thinking about invading Ukraine? Of course. But did he do it when Donald Trump was President? He absolutely did not. Joe Biden's weakness has led us to where we are...The number one thing that matters to us is border security here in the United States. We take care of America at home, we can talk about the world, but America's got to be taken care of first. It's that simple...I am telling you this: The American voter, Piers, Piers, the American voter is demanding that our security is taken care of first. Our borders must be secured. That's the position of the House Republicans...Last thing Piers: All Joe Biden has to do is undo what he did when he came into office. Secure our border, then we can talk about Ukraine. Until then, there's nothing to talk about."
