House Republicans have declared that they will start work again on the wall along the U.S.-Mexico border if they win control of the House in the midterm elections, the Washington Examiner reported on Monday.

"That includes the wall, and it includes technology and being able to move again toward agreements where people who are seeking asylum stay in Mexico."

The crisis at our border continues to get worse and the fallout continues to mount.
