New Gingrich: The far-left is funding 'war' at southern border

Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich said Monday there is a “war” at the southern border being funded by the far left.

“This war on the border is real,” Gingrich told Fox News. “And what people are trying to do is a psychological war, very often guided, by the way, by American leftists who are activists and American left-wing organizations who are helping finance it.”

Gingrich, who was House speaker from 1995 to 1999, said that the Left’s goal in mobilizing the Central American caravan was to embarrass the U.S. by making it seem as though the government cannot control its border.
