00:00 And I yield one minute to my friend General Perry from Pennsylvania.
00:03 The gentleman's recognized.
00:05 Thank you Mr. Speaker.
00:07 Duplicity. This is a lie.
00:10 It's a deceit, it's trickery, it's chicanery, fraud.
00:14 It is a swindle. It is a scam by design, Mr. Speaker.
00:20 This is a pig in a poke.
00:23 You don't even get the pig though, you just get the bag.
00:26 We told everybody we're going to do border security, we're going to attach it to this bill,
00:31 and this is all going to go to the Senate, and then the President's going to sign it, but that's not going to happen.
00:36 Border security's not in here. This is a separate bill, designed to fail.
00:40 Designed to fail.
00:43 You're getting a box sent to you in the mail that says border security.
00:46 If you're Lake and Riley's parents, if you're Kate Steinle's parents,
00:49 you're getting the box that says border security, and you open it up, and there's nothing in it.
00:54 You're supposed to believe we're doing something here, Mr. Speaker,
00:59 but in reality, we're just tricking you and swindling the American people again.
01:04 This is an abomination.
01:06 I'm going to vote for the bill, but I want everybody to know it's a sham. I yield.
01:10 I reserve Mr. >> General reserves.
