One of those behind Biden's border bungle

 Washington Examiner:

...

The cause of Biden’s border crisis is obvious to any honest person: On his first day in office, Biden ended the “Remain in Mexico” program that former President Donald Trump had created to close a loophole that migrants were exploiting in our asylum process. With this loophole reopened, migrants began exploiting it again.

According to a New Yorker profile published this week, this never occurred to the staff Biden appointed to implement his immigration policies.

Andrea Flores, who first worked as a policy assistant to DHS Sec. Alejandro Mayorkas when he was the head of Citizenship and Immigration Services under President Barack Obama, was put in charge of undoing Trump’s “Remain in Mexico” program, also known as the Migrant Protection Protocols. Flores was tasked with finding those migrants that had been returned to Mexico under MPP and then processing them into the United States.

“They started in San Diego, then planned to move on to El Paso, Brownsville, and Laredo,” author Jonathan Blitzer writes. “As Flores and her team were working, another humanitarian emergency began to play out: thousands of unaccompanied children were arriving at the border, overwhelming federal authorities.”

Neither Flores nor Blitzer ever stopped to consider that maybe this other “humanitarian emergency” was being caused by the very policy Flores was carrying out. If you end a policy that returns unaccompanied minors to Mexico, of course more unaccompanied minors are going to illegally enter the county. That’s just common sense.

But Flores is never able to connect these dots. Instead, her goal throughout the article is to make it easier for migrants to enter the U.S. and make bogus asylum claims. From the article:

Biden’s incoming agenda was a high-wire act: prevent and discourage migrants from crossing the border in between ports of entry, while slowly rebuilding the government’s capacity for handling asylum seekers. Flores saw the M.P.P. wind-down as a model for an orderly process at the ports. But, through the spring and summer, the White House wavered. “Senior leadership was saying that we were letting in too many people,” Flores told me. She wasn’t regularly briefing the President or his principal advisers, but, before top-level meetings, she would suggest to her superiors that they bring up the issue of expanding asylum access. According to Flores, the response would often be “No, they do not want to hear about more people coming in.” When I asked her who “they” were, she mentioned Ron Klain and Susan Rice.

Flores eventually left the Biden administration after the Department of Homeland Security began to comply with a court order directing them to re-implement MPP. Flores did not want to stick around to rebuild the very program she had just dismantled.

...

The compliance does not look like a good-faith effort.  So far only 300 have been returned to Mexico.  What is evident to me is that the Biden administration wants to traffic illegals into the country regardless of the law in hopes they will change the demographics to help Democrats win elections.  What they are doing can not be falled faithfully executing US laws as Biden pledged to do when he was sworn in.  It is one of the most blantant uncosntutional operations ever done by a President and his administration.  Biden should be impeached.
