At what point will the border crisis be recognized as a crisis by Joe Biden? With the Border Patrol admitting over 600,000 illegals were seen but not caught, and nearly 5 million sneaking in over Biden's term, when is it a crisis?
Border Patrol's Testimony and Apprehensions
During the recent testimonies before Congress, border agents reported that the exact same rules are in place today as under Trump. They claimed higher detentions, apprehensions, arrests, deportations, and drug seizures than during Trump's presidency. This sounds like the border is under better control under Biden than under Trump.
Political Spin and Messaging
The Democrats, with backing from individuals like George Soros and the Obama Regime, have been reluctant to admit the truth about the daily number of illegals crossing the border. It seems that every single one of these illegal immigrants is an undocumented democrat in the eyes of their supporters.
Despite more than 5 million crossing under Joe Biden, the absurd claims of a secure border continue. The media, particularly outlets like MSNBC, ABC, and others, seldom cover the crisis. It appears the Border Patrol requires more personnel, but the GOP in charge of the budget remains hesitant to authorize the necessary funding.
White House and Partisan Labeling
The White House has used the term "crisis" at times, but there's a clear preference for less inflammatory language. Democrats have also used the term, but their use of it is likely more for political gain than to address the issue. There's no doubt that the party unity rhetoric is a facade, as evidenced by Donald Trump's victory in 2016 due to party divisions.
No Solution? Not Necessarily
While neither side has a clear solution, they also don't support measures they perceive as inhumane or ineffective. Building a 3,000-mile wall that can be bypassed with a 37-foot ladder is viewed as a waste of resources. Separating children from their families and placing them in cages has been deemed cruel and possibly illegal. Therefore, while they don't seem to have a solution, they also reject this harsh approach.
Given the ongoing crisis and the political reluctance to address it effectively, the question remains: when will the border crisis be recognized as a true crisis, both politically and administratively?
