<p>Florida Governor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/ron-desantis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ron DeSantis</a> slammed the U.S. Senate&#8217;s controversial border bill shortly after it was unveiled this week.</p>
<p>Speaking during a press conference on Monday, DeSantis said that the bill was a &#8220;farce&#8221; written by people who have &#8220;contempt&#8221; for U.S. taxpayers.</p>
<p>&#8220;We have a huge issue in this country on our southern border. You can&#8217;t be a country if you don&#8217;t maintain control of your own territory,&#8221; DeSantis said. &#8220;And yet, this has been going on really for many, many years, decades, perhaps, but it&#8217;s never been this bad. And they have now unveiled a piece of legislation in Washington and I think people are starting to point out what a farce it is, to basically say that you only shut the border down once 5,000 people a day come illegally, which is about 2 million a year. So that&#8217;s basically legalizing illegal immigration. And there&#8217;s so many other things that are wrong with it. But I just think, taking a step back, what it shows me is it just shows me the contempt that these people in D.C. have for American taxpayers.&#8221;</p>
<p>DeSantis continued, &#8220;I mean, the amount of money they want to send all around the world, the amount of money that they&#8217;re saying that they&#8217;re going to use for border, but it&#8217;s really going to go to facilitate more of the problem. I just think the whole thing is a farce. The fact of the matter is the president has the authority to secure the country&#8217;s border. You don&#8217;t need a new piece of legislation to do that. Just do it, and if you did it, I think a lot of people would be pleasantly surprised that you did it. But what this is, this is just another dog and pony show out of Washington. It will not solve a problem. It will just exacerbate the problem even further. And so I don&#8217;t think it likely has much of a chance. But you never know with the folks that we&#8217;ve got in Washington, D.C., nowadays.&#8221;</p>
