While America debates illegal immigration, women and children are facing horrible atrocities, fentanyl is flooding across our border and killing our kids, and human trafficking is thriving. Glenn asks, how many people need to die before our government secures our border?! Meanwhile, the Biden administration has ordered a German Christian family who tired for 15 years to do things the right way to self-deport back to Germany. Glenn has had enough of the hypocrisy: "We are cutting our own fences while we're cutting our own throats!"

GLENN: This story, I just told you about, I've -- I've hit my limit. I've hit my limit. I have no tolerance for this. I mean, I really feel like this -- this story about this German family that's been going on now for 15 years! They have come to America, because they were actually religiously persecuted by Germany.
That's why we are a refuge!
That's why. That's why. Send us your poor, your tired. Your huddled masses, yearning to breathe free.
That is a challenge to Europe.
You send me the people you say, can't make it. And you watch them flourish here.
That's what that means. Not just have everybody overrun our borders, and chaos.
AOC compared what's happening on our border, to Ellis Island.
God, I wish there was an Ellis Island!
We knew who was coming into the country!
We sent some back. This is not Ellis Island. And now, you have a Christian family.
And I don't care what color they are. If they were from Africa, and the story was the same, if they were from Venezuela. And the story was the same.
I would be saying the same thing.
I have to tell you, when I was talking to them, I was like, this is -- I mean, I should hide this family.
I should hide this family. I mean, to me, this is -- this is the beginning of what happened in Germany.
No. We're still a long way away from a death camp.
And it doesn't ever have to go there. But this is how it starts. You're letting people come across the border, by the millions.
They don't need to have the vaccine. They don't -- they can send their kids in. You don't have to have the -- you know, MMR shot. You don't have to have anything.
You don't have to play by the rules for any reason. Because the government likes you. But a family who comes in, the right way, does the right thing.
Proves, for 15 years, they're solid citizens.
They're shipped back. Why?
Why?
Because this government has a problem with the Christian family coming in.
And you know what?
This family will go back to Germany. And they won't say anything. Because that's who they are.
They are good, decent people.
Who the hell?
Who in Virginia, is going to lead a campaign.
Have you signed that particular -- what do you call it?
Petition. You have signed that? Will you sign that?
Please do.
HSLDA.org/Romeike. Saying it the way it's spelled. R-O-M-E-I-K-E. Romeike. And read about the family. Read about who they are.
I don't care. This one, and I don't know if they even do it. But, I mean, if -- as long as the people that are there, are Christians who actually live the faith.
Meaning, they worship a God of peace.
And they understand the difference between Martin Luther King, and Malcolm X.
And will walk like Jesus walked.
To make his point, he sacrificed himself. To save us.
I -- I will go and kneel at that house every day. I -- I mean, this is -- to me, this is such injustice, and it is everywhere. And one of these things is going to hit you. This one just hit me.
This is not who we are. This, to me, because it's the same thing.
This to me, is the same thing I felt, when we were leaving people behind in Afghanistan.
They were innocent people. They were marked for death. Marked for death. These guys aren't marked for death. But they will be in jail. They will be financially ruined.
Their children will never get a good job in Germany. Because all of their schooling doesn't count. It's persecution.
And it's our government, putting our American values, aside.
Let me -- let me give you something good.
We're all sitting here, debating the border.
And we've been telling you, this is so bad.
Women are being raped.
Children be R being taken into sex slavery. Drugs are coming across our border.
Fentanyl is killing our citizens.
And they will do nothing there. They will take these German people and send them back.
But they will do nothing on our border.
I heard a senator, I heard a senator talk about this, yesterday.
And I want you to hear her. Listen to what she said, in a press conference.
VOICE: That's exactly right. Senator Graham, thank you for putting this together. Thank you for your leadership. One of the things you touched on in the very beginning, is that Democrats say, we have no solutions.
I guarantee you, if you take a look at this group up here, we have put together solution after solution after solution.
I mean, you look at HR2, and what you are trying to move here in the Senate.
You look at the work you've done. Guys, I would have never seen the border firsthand if this woman didn't know, that I needed to see it immediately, upon entering the United States Senate.
I followed up with a trip with John Cornyn because they care. These people down there, Senator Blackburn would talk to them. She knew them. We walked through, and we got to hear women tell us their story.
And their stories are brutalizing. And to Senator Cruz's point. If you're not telling it. That's on you. Because if a woman sits there and she tells you not just about being raped, but how many days a day, she's raped. When she's telling you about having to lay in that bed, while they come in and out. And in and out, it's disgusting, and it's despicable. Folks, you look at the number of people that have died at the border. Because Joe Biden has made it more and more enticing to come here. Make no mistake, this is a result of failed policies. We could fix this. We can't throw money at this and fix it. We have to actually change the policies. I looked in the eyes of CBP agents who said, we're exhausted.
We're not only having to be paperpushers, we're also trying to do what we do, what we took an oath of office to do, and that is protect this border.
But when they tell you about finding the small children, who have drowned in that river, or pulling a lifeless body of a woman who was pregnant with twins, it changes the way you think about what's happening.
Drug cartels, guys, they have their tentacles all over this country. We need you to start telling that story.
To say to Cruz's point, they will tell you exactly how much they paid to get here.
Then they will tell you where they're going, what their job is going to be, and how much more they owe.
Got it? And guess what, just the other day in Alabama, a gentleman told me, if you will come back here with me and this neighborhood, right behind you, you will see migrants who are here illegally. And they will tell you about the drug cartels, coming around every other week to collect.
Guys, that's not the American dream. That's an American nightmare.
We know what policies work. President Trump had secured the border. We know what to do. We just have to have a leader who has the courage to do it.
And I am so sick of Joe Biden lecturing us about the soul of America. Let me tell you, he needs to have the heart to actually listen to people. He needs to have the compassion, to -- to actually hear those stories. The willingness, to work with people.
And Joe Biden needs the courage to take decisive action. We are standing here, ready to do this.
And what he put forward in that supplemental, is an absolute joke. It will only facilitate this crisis more and more every day. By the end of his tenure, we will have over 10 million people here. Which would make that -- by the way, if you put everybody in one place, the, what? The 11th largest state in the United States of America.
Folks, this is out of control. We've got to do something. We would not allow this to happen in a third world country. We certainly shouldn't allow it to happen in the United States of America.
GLENN: I think that is the most honest border assessment I've heard. That's Senator Katie Brit. She's from Alabama.
That's a politician who says what they mean, and means what they say. It's refreshing.
Honestly, you know, we say all the time. I'm fighting for my country.
I'm fighting for the Constitution.
I'm not. I'm not.
I mean, today is a great example.
I'm fighting for my own soul.
And the soul of my children. I'm fighting against evil.
How can you keep a border open, when you know this is going on?
You know this is going on. We're killing our own people with fentanyl.
People are coming over, women are being raped, day after day. Multiple times a day.
Just to get here. We're turning a blind eye to our -- our overlords, on the border.
The drug cartels.
We are cutting our own fences, while we cut our own throats.
