tuckerr yo. ur i ll fully answe hr your question. i do have to . first, however, follow ufollowri on your earlier comments, and that is when you looonk atn the disaster on the borderiden caused by joe biden in texas orb just the border region, gotdollr just one penny for every dollark spent in the ukraine.raine,d be ab would be able to secure our border in that budgeout that congress is about to pass. t they are giving moneyt to to tunisia, but not to texas. but to be clear , tucker, abouty your direct question to me, therd diree is a very easy and g answer to it that you could find out if you just go throughy my twitter account, you ll see about five or six days a week. s we re posting images of what our national guard is doing. on the border. he entir they didn t just begin in ele paso during the entire timed thu that joe biden has beesanof president . we ve had thousands of nationaly guard on the border constantly. . first, let s o the math. based upon what you laid out, we actually
