<p>Rep. Colin Allred (D-TX) lied this week when confronted during an interview that aired Sunday night about past remarks that he made about President Donald Trump&#8217;s border wall, claiming that his remarks were taken &#8220;out of context.&#8221;</p>
<p>Allred, who is running as the Democrat Senate nominee against Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), made the false claim while being asked about campaign ads that he is facing where Cruz quotes Allred as saying: &#8220;If they build that racist wall, my generation is the one that will tear it down.&#8221;</p>
<p>When asked if he still believed that the wall was &#8220;racist&#8221; and if he still supports tearing it down, Allred, who is trailing Cruz by several points in the polls, claimed: &#8220;Well, they were talking about, that&#8217;s a comment taken out of context, really.&#8221;</p>
<p>He immediately deflected from answering question and attacked Cruz for not supporting the Democrats&#8217; border security bill that many experts argued would actually make the Biden-Harris border crisis even worse than it already is.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-media-max-width="560">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">In a <a href="https://twitter.com/tedcruz?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@tedcruz</a> ad, <a href="https://twitter.com/ColinAllredTX?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@ColinAllredTX</a> says &#8220;If they build that racist wall, my generation is the one that will tear it down.&#8221;</p>
<p>He told us that quote was &#8220;taken out of context&#8221; and walls are &#8220;an important part&#8221; of border security.</p>
<p>But, was that quote &#8220;taken out of context?&#8221; No.<br />

<p>A clip from Allred&#8217;s 2018 primary race shows that he did make the remarks in the Cruz ad against him and that they were not taken out of context.</p>
<p>Allred called the issue &#8220;the biggest issue facing the Democratic Party&#8221;, claiming that Trump&#8217;s immigration plan was &#8220;a racist plan.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;This plan is intended to take us back to a period in which we had a race-based immigration system,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I want to really briefly talk about this racist wall, because the symbol of this country cannot be a fence with a barbed wire on top of it. It has to remain the Statue of Liberty.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;And I tell you what, if they build that wall, my generation will be the one that tears it down, because we will not have this in this country,&#8221; he said. &#8220;We will not have&#8230; We&#8217;re not going to waste billions of our dollars on a racist campaign promise, and we&#8217;re not going to turn the symbol of this country into a wall with barbed wire on top of it.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-media-max-width="560">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">Here&#8217;s the context from Allred&#8217;s 2018 primary.</p>
<p>&#8220;This racist wall&#8230; if they build that wall, my generation will be the one that tears it down.&#8221;</p>
<p>Two things can be true at the same time:<br />
Allred&#8217;s immigration views have evolved since 2018, and that quote is perfectly in context. <a href="https://t.co/5BBVDddjkh">pic.twitter.com/5BBVDddjkh</a></p>
