<p>Sen. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/lindsey-graham" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lindsey Graham</a> (R-SC) implored President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/joe-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joe Biden</a> on Sunday to take a strong position on securing the southern border if he wants to secure more aid to Ukraine.</p>
<p>The hawkish Republican lawmaker offered some advice to the Biden administration during an interview with CBS News as officials warned of a record month in which U.S. Border Patrol took into custody <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/migrant-crossings-u-s-southern-border-record-monthly-high-december/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">more than 225,000 migrants</a> who crossed the border in December.</p>
<p>&#8220;Accept the idea that we&#8217;re full. Take the tools we&#8217;re willing to give you to stop the inflow&#8221; of migrants on the U.S.-southern border, including deportations, and &#8220;you&#8217;ll turn things around pretty quickly&#8221; and &#8220;we&#8217;ll get money for Ukraine,&#8221; Graham said in his &#8220;Face the Nation&#8221; appearance.</p>

<p>The comments come as Senate talks, in which negotiators are trying to hash out an agreement tying border security reforms to aid for U.S. allies such as Ukraine, are <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/senate-negotiations-border-ukraine-aid-resume/story?id=105942714" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reportedly poised to resume next week</a> while Biden administration officials have been <a href="https://www.msnbc.com/symone/watch/maine-secretary-of-state-speaks-out-on-threats-a[…]-after-ruling-trump-ineligible-for-primary-ballot-201152581589" target="_blank" rel="noopener">meeting</a> with their counterparts in Mexico to address the migrant situation.</p>
<p>As the $111 billion in supplemental funds previously allocated to Ukraine <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/speaker-johnson-wants-transformative-border-security-reforms-in-exchange-for-ukraine-aid" target="_blank" rel="noopener">runs out</a>, and other conflicts rage — including Israel&#8217;s war on Hamas — Biden has pushed Congress for more than $100 billion in supplemental funding for national security priorities.</p>
<p>The request includes some money for border security, but any momentum toward passing the cash infusion has stalled because of Republican lawmakers demanding immigration reforms.</p>

<p>Biden recently <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/speeches-remarks/2023/12/06/remarks-by-president-biden-urging-congress-to-pass-his-national-security-supplemental-request-including-funding-to-support-ukraine/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> he is &#8220;willing to make significant compromises&#8221; to &#8220;fix the broken border system.&#8221; The GOP-led House passed border legislation — H.R. 2 — earlier this year, but Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has refused to have the Senate take up the bill, dismissing what he described as &#8220;<a href="https://www.democrats.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/majority-leader-schumer-floor-remarks-on-the-urgent-need-to-pass-national-security-supplemental-funding-legislation-to-support-our-friends-and-allies-and-defend-democracy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">partisan right-wing demands</a>.&#8221;</p>
<p>While a legislative solution is worked out, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/speaker-johnson-presses-biden-to-use-executive-actions-for-border-crisis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">encouraged</a> Biden to use executive action to end catch-and-release, stop the &#8220;exploitation&#8221; of parole authority, revive asylum cooperation agreements with Mexico, ramp up &#8220;expedited&#8221; removal of migrants who fail to qualify for asylum, and renew construction of a border wall.</p>
<p>Graham said he &#8220;desperately&#8221; wants to help Ukraine, but emphasized, &#8220;I cannot come back to South Carolina and talk about giving aid to Ukraine and Israel if the border&#8217;s still broken — it is not broken, it is in chaos.&#8221; He also said, &#8220;Our national security is very much at risk. So, Ukraine aid has to be tied to [the] border.&#8221;</p>
