At a border security summit in Arizona on Wednesday led by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody expressed frustration for those in law enforcement fighting cartels. She also gave an update on her office’s success challenging the Biden administration’s “unlawful mass release” policies in court.
Joining DeSantis and Moody at the border summit were Cochise County, Arizona, Sheriff Mark Dannels, sheriffs from Texas and Florida and sheriffs leading national and regional sheriffs associations, Canyon County, Idaho, Sheriff Kieran Donahue, Vice President of the National Sheriff’s Association, and Lea County, New Mexico, Sheriff Corey Helton, President of the Western States Sheriffs Association.
“They say they are losing the war and the reason these fine folks feel this way is because we have a general in the White House who has abandoned us on the battlefield, walked to the side and started waving the flag of surrender like it is a starting flag at a NASCAR race, saying, ‘come on in as fast as you can,’” Moody said. “We across this nation are seeing the effects of that.”
