Sen. John Thune, ...
April 14, 2021
Tweet - "Conditions at our southern border are dire -- Ds can't deny it, so they're trying to hide it (by blocking press). Pres. Biden & VP should find time to see it. Maybe then they'll make needed policy changes. Until they do, good efforts by @CBP are just band-aids on a cracked hull."

Sen. John Thune
April 13, 2021
Tweet - "If Democrats want to make impactful infrastructure investments, how about resuming (already paid for) wall construction at the southern border? Let's start there."
Sen. John Thune
April 5, 2021

Sen. John Thune
April 1, 2021
Tweet - "Heard many stories of kids in dangerous situations b/c this admin made them a loophole to game the system: 5-year-old kids traveling alone, 2-year-olds w/ strangers -- CBP officers see it every day. Mr. President, this is what an open border looks like (special character)"
Sen. John Thune
April 1, 2021
Tweet - "Powerful footage exposing how smugglers/cartels are brazenly exploiting Biden's policies to traffic vulnerable women & children into our country at a profit of over $14 million/ day (special character).

Sen. John Thune
March 31, 2021
Tweet - "As long as the Biden admin continues to implement policies that give the impression of an open, porous border, people are going to keep flooding into our country."
Sen. John Thune
March 26, 2021
Tweet - "Midnight on the Rio Grande -- visible lights from smugglers on the Mexican side of the border. Hearing stories that these smugglers are charging upwards of $6,000, much of which flows to drug cartels."
Sen. John Thune
March 26, 2021
Tweet - "Being told by CBP that Biden border crisis was totally avoidable if this admin had listened to the warnings of our border experts. Once again, they caved to their political left, and the result is a humanitarian and public safety emergency, which is worsening by the day."
Sen. John Thune
March 26, 2021
Tweet - "What I'm seeing on the border is harrowing: facilities are dangerously overcrowded, border patrol officers are overwhelmed & under-supported, smugglers (often w/ties to drug cartels) are profiting massively, hundreds of scared kids are on their own."
