Bill Cassidy, along with Pat Toomey and Ben Sasse, is one of the best of the Senate. His judicious yet courageous approach to issues is refreshing in a city filled with egomaniacs, blind acolytes, and cult of personality devotees.

Cassidy is bringing his direct and candid views to the issue of border security, noting with accuracy that the current border crisis is completely the fault of the Biden administration. One only has to look at a calendar to see when the surge hit and it was not on Donald Trump’s watch.

FNC: “Sen. Bill Cassidy, R-La., blames President Biden for the surge of migrants that have presented a crisis at the U.S. southern border. February saw the largest number of unaccompanied minors apprehended at the border since May 2019. “Fox News Sunday” host Chris Wallace asked Cassidy to what degree Biden’s policies have caused this.”

“Empirically it is entirely. You can’t help but notice that the administration changes and there is a surge,” Cassidy said. He remembered hearing one of Biden’s top advisers say in Spanish that the border was open, only to then reverse herself in English. “I can tell you the Spanish version is being heard, not the English,” he said. He’s right, as the Biden administration’s message obviously encourages people to send their children on the trek, even if it means putting these kids at risk.

“And so when people think they can get in,” Cassidy said, “they begin sending their unaccompanied child on a trainride across Mexico where she may be kidnapped and trafficked, on the hope that they’re going to be waved through at the border.”

Cassidy on the Biden administration’s response. “They’re sending FEMA for reinforcements — not for today, not for tomorrow, but for three weeks from now,” he said. And on the Covid Relief bill? “The money that is there for education will be spent in the out years,” the senator explained. “That’s not related to COVID. If everybody is vaccinated by June then it’s clearly not related to COVID.”

Cassidy will be a leader in the Senate and on this issue for many years to come. If he decides to look at higher office, given his excellent judgment, his kind of man would be welcome in the Oval Office.
