Mike Johnson blames 'wide open border' after U.S. citizen allegedly attacks New Orleans

Raw Story  

House Speaker Mike Johnson pointed to the "wide open border" after a U.S. citizen allegedly carried out a truck attack, killing over a dozen people in New Orleans. During a Thursday interview on Fox News, host Lawrence Jones asked Johnson if the FBI was previously aware of the identity of the man suspected of attacking people on Bourbon Street in New Orleans. "The congressional Republicans, we here in the House and the Senate, have repeatedly asked the DHS under the Biden administration about the correlation, the obvious concern about terrorism and the wide open border," he continued. Johnson argued House Republicans passed a border security bill to prevent attacks like the one in New Orleans.
