On the Wednesday edition of The Chad Hasty Show, Texas Representative Dennis Bonnen from HD 25 joined the broadcast to defend the Representative John Frullo and the Texas Legislature's spending on Texas border security.

About criticism by Jim Landtroop, an opponent of HD 84 Representative John Frullo, saying that the legislature did not spend enough on border security, Bonnen said,

In 2011 we spent 222 million dollars on border security, and last session we spent 800 million (dollars). So Representative Frullo led the effort on the issue of border security, went to 800 million dollars, and his opponent is questioning whether we did enough. It's silly.
