Mike Johnson Questions If Biden ‘Is Actually Making These Decisions’ On Border Security

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) said he doubts President Joe Biden is the one calling the administration’s shots on immigration policy as the speaker pushes Biden to take executive action to secure the southern border.

Johnson told Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo on Friday that he and his fellow Republicans have shown Biden that he has the constitutional authority to secure the border with executive power, but said that he thinks the president’s staff is stopping him from taking action.

“He knows that he has the authority. We’ve documented it for him. I’ve read to him the law myself — to the president. Read him the provisions of the law and said, ‘Mr. President, please take action,’” the speaker said.
