Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., on Monday accused former President Barack Obama’s administration of “knowingly” allowing members of MS-13 to enter the country, The Daily Caller reports.
“This is a very appropriate and legitimate issue that President Trump is very accurate in bringing out and highlighting,” Johnson said on Fox News’ “America’s Newsroom.”
“The mainstream liberal press is hammering on that and making all kinds of false claims but no, I think the president is correct, Americans are concerned. We certainly have evidence of gang activity, gang members in those caravans.”
“The Obama Administration knowingly let in MS-13 gang members. So, it’s just true,” he said. “When Democrats support sanctuary cities they’re supporting that type of criminal activity. And that’s what this president’s trying to end.”
