<p>Sen. James Lankford (R-OK) said during an interview over the weekend that the Biden administration was playing politics with the ongoing crisis at the U.S. southern border and that they were not planning on doing enough to fix the problem.</p>
<p>Lankford, the lead Republican negotiator in the U.S. Senate working on getting more resources directed toward fixing President Joe Biden&#8217;s border crisis, made the remarks during a Sunday interview on CBS News&#8217; &#8220;Face The Nation&#8221; with Margaret Brennan.</p>
<p>&#8220;Right now, the push and pull is really a political push and pull rather than anything else,&#8221; he said. &#8220;We have the highest number of crossings of any September ever last September, the highest October ever, the highest November ever, and we had the highest single day just this last week. It is literally spiraling out of control. All we&#8217;re trying to do is to say what tools are needed to be able to get this back in control, so we don&#8217;t have the chaos on our southern border.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;The problem is the administration is trying to be able to figure out how to be able to just slow down a little bit of the flow,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;We had 12,000 people, for instance, on Tuesday of this last week that crossed the border illegally. They&#8217;re trying to figure out some way to be able to say, well, we&#8217;ll do a few thousand less, but not actually stop the flow.&#8221;</p>
<p>Lankford noted that more illegal aliens have flooded into the U.S. during the last three months than came into the U.S. during any year under former President Barack Obama.</p>
