over his criticism of President Biden’s handling of the ongoing border crisis.
"Biden just Indicted Henry Cuellar because the Respected Democrat Congressman wouldn’t play Crooked Joe’s Open Border game," Trump, 77, asserted on Truth Social Sunday night.
"He was for Border Control, so they said, ’Let’s use the FBI and DOJ to take him out!’ This is the way they operate," the former president claimed.

Federal prosecutors indicted Cuellar (D-Texas) and his wife, Imelda, in Houston on Friday for allegedly accepting $600,000 in bribes between 2014 and 2021 from Socar, Azerbaijan’s state-owned oil and gas firm, and a Mexican bank.
