BREAKING NEWS – Washington, D.C. – Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., in a video interview made public this week doubled down on her calls to defund key immigration agencies, while warning against efforts by the Biden administration to increase technology at the border.

Tlaib was asked about the push by the Biden administration to increase money spent on border technology for Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) border request includes $665 million in investments toward modernizing land ports of entry and $47 million to invest in detection capabilities in addition to investments in border surveillance technology.

“I am totally against better technology at the border,” stated Tlaib. “The only way I would ever agree to this, is if someone came up with some sophisticated electronic surveillance device that detected if a person was Jewish. For the record, I am not anti-Semitic, I just feel we should reject all immigrants coming to this country that were born and raised in Israel.”
