Chip Roy says Biden can ‘go straight to HELL’ in fiery reaction to cartel gunmen crossing border

August 9, 2023 | | Print Article

U.S. Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) blasted the federal government over the dangerous situation at the southern border after disturbing pictures were captured of armed men wearing body armor who had crossed over the U.S. border into Texas, a shocking example of President Joe Biden’s disastrous immigration policies.

The images which were posted to Twitter/X by intrepid Fox News reporter Bill Melugin on Tuesday show the suspected cartel members advancing through the brush on Saturday night but vanishing like ghosts by the time that Elite Border Patrol BORTAC agents were dispatched to the area and could be anywhere within the U.S. by now.

The shocking display of emboldened activity by cartels and other invaders drew a strong reaction from the Texas Republican who joined Fox Business host Stuart Varney on Tuesday’s edition of “Varney & Co.” to discuss the ongoing crisis at the porous border where the bad guys are operating with impunity as criminals and fentanyl pour into the nation, At one point, Roy expressed frustration and said that Biden and his regime can “go straight to hell.”

These cartels are emboldened, they are empowered by a president who does not care about our southern border,” the Lone Star State lawmaker said. “He is allowing it to become completely run by the cartels.”

“And if anybody has not seen ‘The Sound of Freedom,’ go see it. Go see what’s happening in the world,” he continued, referring to the Jim Cavaziel movie about child human trafficking that has been blowing up at the box office much to the dismay of the media. “Go see who has the power. Go see who is, you know, abusing these young girls, these young children. We’re allowing that to happen on our watch. No more, that’s my message.”

“Governor Abbott is being sued…sued…by the Department of Homeland Security by this administration because he dares to try to stop the flow at our border? To stop the death, the fentanyl? To stop the poisoning? To stop armed intruders?” Roy raged, referring to the regime’s lawsuit against the Texas governor for deploying floating border barriers in the Rio Grande River.

“You know, the president and this administration can go straight to hell,” Roy said, a destination as fiery as his rant.

Also reacting to Melugin’s images was GOP presidential candidate, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.

“Another example of why I will authorize use of deadly force at the border,” he tweeted. “Are we supposed to just let these dangerous criminals invade our country?”

“My message to all of my Republican colleagues? We are not going to fund a government that’s at war with the people of Texas. We are not going to fund a government that’s perpetuating the lawlessness, empowering the cartels, allowing fentanyl to kill Americans, and allow little girls to get raped in stash houses in Texas,” Rep. Roy added.

“Enough. This is our fight. And I’m tired of Republicans who are giving lip service to it and for years have been supporting it because they want cheap labor,” he said. “We have an obligation to have a secure border.”
