White House says most migrants will be turned away from border
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Now is not the time for new migrants to come to the U.S. border and most will be turned away, the White House said on Wednesday, citing the coronavirus pandemic and the Biden administration's short time in office to set up processes for new migrants.

"Now is not the time to come and the vast majority of people will be turned away," White House press secretary Jen Psaki told reporters at a daily briefing.

Cooler heads prevailing??? Or just realizing the consequences of "words".
Well which is it JJ?
Are you mocking them just because?
How are the floodgates open now?
Seems contradictory.
Closed thereby stopping the "flood".
Ok, the opposite of open...........
When according to the previous Administration they were closed shut,
tightly with all the new walls, military presence, etc
Right?
So if they are now declared operational, I can only presume that means open...
It's only been 3 weeks and the blowback has begun. The ink hasn't even dried on King Biden's dozens of cursive anti-American fiats. Imagine that!
Don't we have enough problems with out letting more in?
The thousands of illegal aliens Biden is letting in don't have to provide proof of Covid-19 vaccinations and won't even be tested for Covid-19 at the border. It's Obama 2.0 - catch, release, and maybe they'll come back for their court dates in 2-3 years after spreading disease.
Unlike illegals' PRIVILEGE ... US citizens and LEGAL residents returning to the USA must provide proof of vaccinations and/or on-site testing followed by monitored quarantine periods.
Due to Covid travel restrictions and quarantines, I haven't seen 2 of my children for over a year, and they used to be able to come home (or us to visit them) several times a year.
Not really true, but why waste precious tests on immigrants.
That's a personal choice.
I have traveled for 2 funerals and 2 weddings because that's what was important to me.
Oh, ok. Guess everybody will just skip it then. Wait til next year, right?
You mean without a hearing? Without due process? Without housing and food? These people need shelter, medical care, housing vouchers. And you just turn them away? It's inhuman!
Actually, I'm sure they'll all just walk right up to a Border Patrol agent and politely ask to enter. Then, when they are turned away, they'll nod with understanding and acceptance. Then they'll just go all the way back home without complaint. Problem solved. None of them will just move on to a gap in the evil wall nobody wanted or sneak in through somebody's car trunk. Why would they? Uncle Joe has explained that now is not the time. That should settle things.
I wish we had thought of that sooner. So wise!
