Biden fails to get the border under control

 American Action News:

Several former officials of the Department of Homeland Security believe that a proposed border security reform, currently being negotiated in the Senate, will not work and is being used by the Biden administration to deflect blame from its policies.

The deal, whose text has not yet been released to the public, would reportedly place a limit on the processing of foreign national migrants who enter the country by illegally crossing the international border with Mexico at 5,000 individuals per day, measured as an average over two weeks, according to multiple reports about its contents. Should average migrant intake exceed that threshold, the processing of all migrants would shut down for at least two weeks, with all arriving migrants during that time being immediately removed from the United States, until the next two-week average falls to 3,750.

The deal has been attacked by former officials of the Department of Homeland Security who oversaw border policy, as well as experts, who spoke with the Daily Caller News Foundation. They argue that it will not meaningfully reduce migrant intake by the United States and is being used, politically, by President Joe Biden to blame Republicans for increased migrant flows, which they argue were caused by his policies.

“I think this idea of a negotiation right now is a little bit of comical, in the sense that the Biden administration for the last three years has shown no interest in securing the border,” said former Acting Secretary of Homeland Security Chad Wolf to the DCNF. “And so, why, all of a sudden, are they showing interest now? … If they were truly serious about securing the border, they would have done so using existing authorities for the past three years.”

“They’re just shifting blame once again, right now, to Congress…they said it was the Trump administration’s fault, they said it was Congress’s fault. They’ll blame it on everyone and anyone but their own policy,” Wolf noted. “I don’t buy the argument that the only [out] is to negotiate very, very nuanced immigration laws that only a few people understand and that no one really knows how are going to be operationalized.”

Wolf’s comments were echoed by other former officials, who also think that the provisions leaked provisions are unlikely to be meaningful in their effect. “Biden becoming serious about the border three years into his term would be like the White Star Line becoming serious about maritime safety after leaving Belfast,” wrote Simon Hankinson, a former U.S. consular officer who is a senior research fellow on immigration at the Heritage Foundation, to the DCNF.

“Senators would be codifying, or cementing, the very open border tools Biden has used to achieve his unlimited illegal immigration agenda: unlawful mass parole, work authorization, asylum fraud, unaccompanied alien children, and catch and release,” said Lora Ries, a former chief of staff of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) immigration attorney to the DCNF. “Senators should not fall for Biden’s statement that he’ll use the proposed new authority. He has current authority to fix the border mess he created…Now, in an election year, he’s to be believed? No way.”

The best way to get the border under control is to defeat Biden and the Democrats at the ballot box.  The Dems are at best, inept when it comes to dealing with the border and they may be deliberately screwing up to get more illegals into the country to change the demographics.

The Biden campaign has been charging that if former President Donald Trump is elected, he will take revenge on his political opponents. President Biden is following Saul Alinsky's playbook in "Rules for Radicals." Accuse your opponent of what you are doing.

After being sworn in as president, Joe Biden's first act on day one was to end the Remain in Mexico policy and remove the controls that had stabilized the U.S. border. This revenge campaign of ethnic cleansing was payback to the American people for electing Donald Trump in 2016 and the squeaker election of 2020. 

The campaign to flood the zone with illegals was the first priority of the Biden administration, and never mind that fentanyl and human trafficking followed. Every public pronouncement since has been an attempt to gaslight the American people about what was done. Biden implemented his most important objective first and has no intention of changing it until his last day in office.
