- π― He criticizes Democratic colleagues for obscuring history with claims of a constitutional crisis and corrupt law enforcement, while they themselves have abandoned the rule of law.
Border Security and Immigration Policies
- β οΈ Grassley asserts that Democrats' "foolish policies" threw open the southern border, allowing over 6,000 criminals and terrorists into the U.S. and losing track of two million known "gotaways."
- π« He highlights the irony of Democrats criticizing efforts to remove these threats, given their past actions.
Attacks on Law Enforcement
- π¨ The Senator details how law enforcement officers have been subjected to physical threats, including being pelted with rocks and assaulted with explosives.

- π¨ Another example includes an FBI agent threatened with photos of his children to back down from an investigation.
Government Accountability
- ποΈ Grassley criticizes Homeland Security Secretary Morcus and FBI Director Ray for refusing to appear for their annual Congressional Report on homeland threats.
