B-Man Posted April 18, 2021 Posted April 18, 2021 (edited) Joe Biden Now Describes Migrant Rush on the Border as a ‘Crisis’ by Charlie Spiering President Joe Biden finally described the rush of unaccompanied minor migrants to the border as a “crisis” on Saturday, despite himself and members of his administration previously refusing to use the word to describe the situation. Biden spoke to reporters about the border crisis after a round of golf at the Delaware Country Club on Saturday. He commented on the crisis as he explained why he reversed his position on raising the caps set by former President Donald Trump on refugees. “The problem was that the refugee part was working on the crisis that ended up on the border with young people,” he said to reporters. “We couldn’t do two things at once. https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/04/17/joe-biden-now-describes-migrant-rush-on-the-border-as-a-crisis/ Edited April 18, 2021 by B-Man

B-Man Posted April 19, 2021 Posted April 19, 2021 IMMIGRATION AND THE ESSENTIAL CRAVENNESS OF JOE BIDEN Nothing so surely signals the essential emptiness of Joe Biden than his rapid flip-flop Friday on raising the cap on the number of asylum seekers the United States will accept. At first the Biden Administration announced that they would not lift the relatively low cap that Trump had adopted, but following “outcry” from “Progressives,” Biden did a pirouette worthy of Bolshie ballerina and said he’d now lift the cap. One reason Biden had held the line, however briefly, on the asylum cap is that he’s polling terribly on immigration. But all it took was a gust of hot wind from “Progressives” to make him retreat.

Yes they tend to vote R but when asked which party they identify with it's typically neither. I wouldn't be surprised if they make up a good majority of the 11% that aren't represented in those numbers.

When people cry "if we close down the border who's going to pick the grapes!?!?" Ummmm there is a very good legal way of doing this. Harvest is a couple weeks tops. Temporary workforce solves this problem of what will the workers do when the harvest is over?
B-Man Posted April 21, 2021 Posted April 21, 2021 "Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken was in the Oval Office, pleading with President Biden... to end Trump-era restrictions on immigration..." "... and to allow tens of thousands of desperate refugees fleeing war, poverty and natural disasters into the United States... The attitude of the president during the meeting, according to one person to whom the conversation was later described, was, essentially: Why are you bothering me with this? What had been an easy promise on the campaign trail — to reverse what Democrats called President Donald J. Trump’s “racist” limits on accepting refugees — has become a test of what is truly important to the new occupant of the White House... Now, a decision to raise the refugee limit to 62,500 — as Mr. Biden had promised only weeks earlier to members of Congress — would invite from Republicans new attacks of hypocrisy and open borders even as the president was calling for bipartisanship. It was terrible timing, he told officials.... Biden’s staff came up with a compromise.... The backlash was immediate.... Within hours, the president backtracked...."

B-Man Posted April 24, 2021 Posted April 24, 2021 KAM ON IN Laura Italiano’s New York Post cover story isn’t much longer than the headline — “Kamala isn’t at the southern border — but migrant kids are getting Veep’s book” — but it packs a punch. Here is the heart of it: Vice President Kamala Harris hasn’t been to the border to address a crisis she was tasked to help fix — but a children’s book she wrote is waiting there for young migrants who are being welcomed into the country. Unaccompanied migrant kids brought from the U.S.-Mexico border to a new shelter in Long Beach, Calif., will be given a copy of her 2019 children’s book, “Superheroes are Everywhere,” in their welcome kits. It’s just the latest open-arms gesture by the Biden administration, whose mixed messaging regarding the border and immigration has been credited with the surge from Central America to the U.S.-Mexico border. The Post condenses the gist of the story the classic cover below. Readers with a gift for pattern recognition might be able to trace a line from the April 23 Post story on reminding us of the Minnesota Freedom Fund Harris supported to raise bail for the rioters in our back yard to today’s KAM ON IN story on the flood of illegal immigrants she also supports. https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2021/04/kam-on-in.php
