Tulsi Gabbard tweeted:. @JoeBiden @KamalaHarris , the humanitarian and national security crisis on the southern border is the direct result of your open-border policy. As I said in my 2020 presidential campaign, we can’t have a secure nation if we don't secure our borders.
President Joe Biden suspended Trump's border program on his first day of office and the Homeland Security Department ended it in June, drawing an influx of migrants to the border over the past few months. Daily Mail
Haitian migrants flooded Del Rio because cartel let them cross for free | Daily Mail Online "The secret behind the Haitians who have turned up in Del Rio, Texas is that they didn't migrate from Haiti at all but from Chile, where they had been granted asylum and were working and living comfortably as refugees.
"The dozens of Chilean identity cards that litter the ground in Ciudad Acuna, just across the Rio Grande from Del Rio, all bear distinctly non-Hispanic names.
"There is Prosper Pierre for instance, or Linode Lafleur or Eddyson Jean-Charles. None of the cards carries a name such as Gonzalez or Muñoz or Rojas.". . .
. . . " 'As one put it to me, "I love Chile, it's 1,000 times better than Haiti," migration expert Todd Bensman of the Center for Immigration Studies told DailyMail.com.
'But I want to come to the United States, that's a million times better.' ". . .
Americans know who's to blame for the border crisis: Devine (nypost.com) "Operation Gaslight is collapsing. "A majority of Americans blame President Biden for the border crisis, a new poll shows, as the administration is caught lying about the makeshift refugee camp under a bridge in Del Rio, Texas.". . .
. . . "White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Wednesday 90,000 illegal migrants were deported in August. But officially 208,000 crossed the border last month. So that’s 57 percent who were not sent home but dispersed around the country. Pretty good odds for the chance of the golden ticket of living in America.". . .
Biden’s Border Botch Is No Accident – Issues & Insights "The massive influx of illegal immigrants on our nation’s southern border almost defies description. The Biden administration has actively sought this disaster in a bid to undermine the integrity of both our border and our nation’s rule of law. President Joe Biden is responsible for this human crisis, and should answer for it.". . .
. . . "This may just be the tip of a very large iceberg. Biden’s plans include doubling the current level of refugees admitted each year to 125,000.
"What’s worse, those who stay aren’t required to be vaccinated before being admitted, even though American workers are. Will we see an open-border-driven surge of new COVID cases this fall? Stay tuned.". . .
. . . “ 'Common sense border security recommendations from experienced career professionals are being ignored and stymied by inexperienced political appointees,” Scott wrote. “The Biden administration’s team at DHS is laser-focused on expediting the flow of migrants into the U.S. and downplaying the significant vulnerability this creates for terrorists, narcotics smugglers, human traffickers, and even hostile nations to gain access to our homeland.”
"That powerful condemnation of Biden’s policy comes not from a partisan politician but from a border security official who recently retired after nearly 30 years experience protecting the U.S. border.
"In short, this isn’t mere incompetence or the unforeseen consequences of a misbegotten policy; it’s intentional.". . .
The Lack of a Whip - Christine Rosen, Commentary Magazine "If you have never ridden a horse, you can be forgiven for misunderstanding the intricacies of horse tack: bridles, halters, reins, bits, harnesses, and the like."If you’re the president of the United States and your administration includes Border Patrol agents who regularly perform their duties on horseback, you should know better.
"And yet, Joe Biden and his administration clearly do not. Out of Del Rio, Texas, where tens of thousands of people who have illegally crossed the border have been living for more than a week in a makeshift camp under a bridge, an image emerged of a Border Patrol officer on horseback attempting to apprehend people who were trying to cross the Rio Grande River.
"The image went viral when Sawyer Hackett, who works for former Obama HUD Secretary Julian Castro, tweeted it out claiming, “Border patrol is mounted on horseback rounding up Haitian refugees with whips. This is unfathomable cruelty towards people fleeing disaster and political ruin. The administration must stop this.' ”. . .
