U.S. Border Patrol Chief Debunks Explosive Claim Made by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene During Hearing

U.S. Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz debunked a claim made by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) that agents had found an “explosive” near the southern border in January, confirming that the object was actually a piece of a plastic water bottle.
