Biden Reverses Course, Will Close Gaps In Areas Of Border Wall As Crisis Hits D.C., Elections Loom

Democrat President Joe Biden's administration will fill gaps in certain areas of former President Donald Trump's border wall on the U.S. southern border as the illegal immigration crisis hits Washington, D.C., following a decision by Republican governors to transport thousands of illegal aliens to the nation's capital.

The development comes after Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott effectively told Washington, D.C., Democrat Mayor Muriel Bowser to pound sand Thursday afternoon after she complained that the border state was flooding her city with illegal aliens.

• "With pledges from Texas and Arizona to continue these abhorrent operations indefinitely, the situation is dire, and we consider this a humanitarian crisis," Bowser wrote in requesting help from the National Guard.

Abbott responded on Twitter, writing: "D.C. is experiencing a fraction of the disastrous impact the border crisis has caused Texas."

• "Mayor Bowser should stop attacking Texas for securing the border & demand Joe Biden do his job," Abbott added.
• Bowser said in her letter that she expects the "crisis" in D.C., a term that Democrats have resisted using when talking about Biden's border crisis, "to escalate."
