It's much easier to shut down a reporter seeking the truth than it is to shut down the border and save the country.
The "Show of hands" question came from Ben Bergquam of Real America's Voice, one of the few journalists who has reported the hard realities about the border crisis on a near daily basis for years.
Bergquam also travels to the cities where the migrants say they want to go after the Border Patrol helps them cross the border - New York, Chicago, Los Angeles.
Who here is willing to shut down the government if the government doesn't shut down the border? It's a reasonable question.
There were certainly some members on the tour who would have raised their hands - warriors like Andy Biggs and Eli Crane from Arizona, Matt Rosendale from Montana, and others, but the Republican leadership in the House has a dismal habit of surrendering to globalist Democrats who are more interested in settling illegal immigrants in our country than stopping them at the border.
Craven Republicans would just find some way to keep the government open and pretend that they had won a victory on border security, but smart Republicans know that the Friday deadline is a huge opportunity.
At least one GOP member, Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, has threatened to bring such a motion unless the border is shut down.
