Fact. Beijing Joe Biden issued NINETY-FOUR executive orders in the first 90 days of his administration, opening the border, reversing the Trump policies that closed it. Biden had told illegal immigrants to surge to the border to be allowed in when he took office.


As such, no new laws needed to be passed to give Biden authority or power to close the border. The bill you claim was about border security was full of other crap, included to assure republicans would not vote for it.


Biden not only has the authority to close the border, he's required by the Constitution to faithfully execute the laws passed by congress to secure the border.

Although many here have blamed the Biden administration alone for the rise in border encounters in 2021, the roots of the current trends began months and in some cases years before President Biden took office. The government can and should view the arrival of high numbers of asylum seekers as a humanitarian protection management challenge, not a security challenge.

I have made reference to HR-2 that was sponsored by a Republican and co-sponsored by no less 21 Republicans in the House. Both you and Mark make reference to the Senate bill that was riddled with actions not part of the immigration issue. HR-2 addresses funding for additional Border Patrol personnel and equipment. Please take the opportunity to read what was included. I give credit to the sponsor and committees who took the time to finally address immigration control. This should have become law.

Trump has made immigration and the border a central campaign issue (again), successfully pressuring Republicans to reject a major bipartisan border deal (HR-2) earlier this year and making a trip to the southern border on February 29, where he touted his previous hard-line immigration policies. The same thing he said in 2016 and 2020...Talk is cheap!
