Mr. President, the border crisis is not on us, it’s on you

[Social Media]

 

In his recent State of the Union address, President Joe Biden addressed the ongoing border crisis, asserting that he is prepared to tackle the issue head-on. However, Representative John Carter of Texas, in a response to the president's remarks, argues that the blame for the crisis lies squarely on the Biden administration's shoulders.

 

Carter contends that the Biden administration's policies have exacerbated the border crisis, citing the repeal of key border security measures implemented during the Trump administration. He highlights the elimination of the Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP), which required migrants to remain in Mexico while awaiting immigration hearings, as well as the halting of border wall construction through executive orders. According to Carter, these actions sent a signal to the world that the U.S. borders were open, leading to a surge in illegal immigration and emboldening drug cartels and criminal organizations.

 

The congressman emphasizes the staggering statistics associated with illegal border crossings since President Biden took office, including over 8.3 million illegal crossings nationwide and the interdiction of large quantities of dangerous drugs like fentanyl. Carter argues that these numbers underscore the urgency of addressing the crisis and accuses the Biden administration of failing to allocate adequate resources to border security efforts.

 

Carter also criticizes the administration's budget proposals, alleging that they prioritize managing the influx of illegal migrants over enforcing immigration laws and securing the border. He contrasts this approach with his own efforts to pass legislation that would fund border security measures, including the construction of physical barriers and the hiring of additional Border Patrol agents.

 

Ultimately, Carter asserts that President Biden's actions speak louder than his words, urging him to reverse his executive orders and work with House Republicans to address the border security crisis effectively. He concludes by squarely placing the responsibility for the crisis on the Biden administration, rejecting any attempt to shift blame onto Republicans.

Just look at the graphs of numbers of undocumented aliens allowed in the country.....the rapid rise since Jan 2021 when he took office. The GOP should show this graph on every commercial. 

The economy is also crooked. Unemployment is rising, the number of jobs claimed get revised down each month. Jobs are measured in two ways one by Biden's Bureau of Labour Statistics and also by what is known as the Household survey....they are in conflict. What is telling is that the vast majority of claimed jobs created are part time and full time work is going down. The 3.1 million jobs 'created' are part time, and matches the number of undocumented alien admitted to the country since Biden took charge; and the number of people quitting is going down, indicating that full time work is not easy to find.

From the party that rejected the strictest border bill since Eisenhower deported the wetbacks because Trump would lose his ONLY election campaign talking point.

The issue is Republicans intentionally sabotaging needed measures to address the border problems.

Hard to listen to a biased politician. Kinda like going to a used car lot and believing what the salesman says.

That's my fear.  Voters are telling him he has to close the border.  But as soon as the election is over, win, lose or draw, he'll re-open the floodgates.

You keep making excuses for Biden. The question is why? Are you always biased against GOP or just Trump?

[Fat is a type of crazy]

My take is Biden was slow to do something. I have always found the democrat approach to migration a bit to nice - statue of liberty and all that - migration can be good but limits are reasonable. But the fact Republicans wont pass the legislation they themselves clearly wanted has taken the wind out of their sails.

Not to the same level - Trump is older and slower - but Biden is clearly suffering early onset dementia.
