Biden blew up rational, effective border policy his first day in office and could easily reverse his actions. He won’t, because he doesn’t want to. Democrats are only now, because it’s an election year, pretending to want to solve the problem and attempting to shift blame for the mess they’ve created.

A major criticism of the Remain in Mexico program was that even the Trump administration could not meet the demands of its own policy. The reason is that Congress has never allocated enough money to detain all of the asylum claimants.
In fact,
no administration has been able to comply with this aspect of federal immigration law since it took effect in 1996.
The Biden administration has a new plan which would delegate asylum claims to specially trained customs and border control officers instead of to the immigration courts, where there are already 400,000 pending cases.
When you are following FOX talking points, they fail to mention that part about EO's and funding. Just cause you make something an action, you still have to fund those activities, and that was what was being tried in the past weeks with the latest bill that failure- Mike "Bible Boy" Johnson decided to scuttle on the house floor.
Trump told him "
No- and there shouldn't be a win for the congress -insert-(American population) when the election is close at hand, and Biden could say he signed into law," but here we are- kicking the can down the proverbial road. It's all politics and nothing about funding.
It is part two of THE GOP Jump the SHARK saga.
In part one- instead of hunting a man eating shark like in Jaws, Quint dies of old age at a retirement home.
The part II is Immigration reform and border funding- Just like the vote on Repeal and Replace- where John McCain thumbed that fucking thing down- cause it had nothing to replace it with, the GOP is thumbing it down, cause it's a political win for the Border and UKRAINE.- yet it was created largely by the GOP's own ppl and included funding tied to UKRAINE which they wanted!! Two swings, two YUGE misses and nobody is surprised at all. Why- cause it's the GOP's way of doing things, by not doing ANYTHING at all. EVER.
These fuckers cannot get one damn thing right- They cannot even get a house intel meeting to agree on the facts or lack there of.
