Representative Aaron Bean (R-FL) was unyielding in his critique of President Joe Biden for the border and fentanyl crises in a recent interview with The Floridian. He underscored that these were the repercussions of voting for him and detailed the profound effects of illegal immigration on his congressional district, which encompasses the majority of Jacksonville.
Rep. Bean described how, as a State Senator, he stood with Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) in demanding the Biden Administration stop sending secret migrant flights to Jacksonville.
"The whistle was blown in Jacksonville," the Florida Congressman recalled, "I stood with Governor DeSantis two and a half years ago, where but for a brave warrior who worked for the airport who logged at the time 78 mystery flights that came into Jacksonville International Airport in the middle of the night. They always came between two and four in the morning."
However, Rep. Bean noted that "those flights continued until we did a press conference with DeSantis on the side of the runway and said, 'No more, enough,' and then they stopped using Jacksonville as a dumping ground."
Nevertheless, he emphasized that "these were unmarked planes that came in and just brought illegal aliens and then dumped them off into the Jacksonville community. That happened two years ago, and so that is why we are a border state, just like everybody else. There is no responsibility or accountability."
Bean then went into the amount of crimes illegal aliens have committed, which he said is "nationwide." Thus, "We are now paying the price of Biden's open border for the last three and a half years," making a point to describe further the number of individuals on the terror watchlist and large numbers of Chinese nationals who have crossed the border.
"Even our own FBI said the level of terror, whatever color that is, is at its highest it has ever been because we do not know who is in the country, because of Joe Biden. And so when you vote for Joe Biden, let everybody know. And if somebody is listening in on our conversation, and hopefully they are, if you vote for Joe Biden, you are voting for an open border. You are voting for a continuation of being an open border," Bean concluded.
