One of Joe Biden’s senior advisors on the border admitted Wednesday that President Trump’s policies (which Biden has reversed) were successfully preventing illegal immigration.
Roberta Jacobson, Biden’s coordinator for the southwestern border on the National Security Council was taking questions about the unfolding crisis when Fox News reporter Peter Doocy managed to get her to admit that Trump’s ‘return to Mexico’ policy was effective against illegal immigration, while Biden’s actions have caused a surge of migrants at the border.
Jacobson said that the current ‘surge’ is likely down to a ‘more humane’ policy at the border prompting ‘hope’ among migrants.
Many are struggling, however, to understand how it is ‘more humane’ to cram thousands of kids into cages, which migrants themselves have dubbed “dog kennels” and “ice boxes”.
There are now a record number of migrant children being kept in Border Patrol ‘cages’, according to reports.
CBS News reports that there are more than 3,200 unaccompanied minors in the facilities, with almost half being held beyond the legal three-day limit.
Less than a month ago there were just NINE children being held, according to Border Patrol documents cited in the CBS report.
There are a further 8,100 migrant children being held at the Office of Refugee Resettlement.
This is an unprecedented crisis caused directly by the undoing of Trump’s border policies and the Biden administration refuses to address it. Biden himself has not faced questions from the media for almost 50 days at this time.
In fact, they are putting out “leaks” that reveal their intentions to continue an open border policy, with the intention to integrate 117,000 migrant youths and children this year alone.
The only questions on the crisis being addressed are continually deflected by White House Press Secretary Jen “I’ll have to circle back with you” Psaki, who has flat denied that there are any ‘kids in cages’ and even laughed Wednesday when asked why there are no Covid restrictions for undocumented migrant children while US schools remain closed.
“It’s not funny!” Fox reporter Peter Doocy urged as Psaki laughed at his question:
