LARA Trump last night urged Americans living at the southern border to "arm up" and "get guns" as she blasted Joe Biden's immigration policies.

The ex-president’s daughter-in-law was speaking as the numbers of illegal immigrants crossing from Mexico continues to rise.

In an interview with ' Justice With Judge Jeanine, Trump called Biden's border response "disgraceful".

She said: "I don't know what to tell the people that live at the southern border. 

"I guess they better arm up, get guns and be ready, and maybe they'll have to start taking matters into their own hands.

"People should never make this dangerous journey here. It's bad for Americans. It's bad for the migrants. It's bad all around."

New data released says illegal crossings have risen 674 per cent in a year, with 180 apprehensions in May, in levels not seen since 2006.

Vice-president Kamala Harris, who is tasked with solving the migrant crisis, has giggled several times when pressed on the spiraling crisis.

Referring to Harris, Trump said: "She thinks she can just laugh off the crisis at the border and it's embarrassing.

"That's your problem when that's your MO... 'when you don't care about their qualifications or preparedness for a job. 

"It's terrible for women all around. Of course, a woman can be president and vice president. 

"But let's get a woman who is actually qualified and up to the job."

On Friday, the Biden administration announced that roughly $2 billion in funding for Trump's border wall will be returned to the Pentagon.

In a statement, the Office of Management and Budget said: "Building a massive wall that spans the entire southern border and costs American taxpayers billions of dollars is not a serious policy solution or responsible use of federal funds."
