Hilarious and lame: Biden tries to blame Republican governors for his border crisis | Washington Examiner

The flight of illegal immigrants from San Antonio to Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts, organized by FloridaGov. Ron DeSantis is the political gift that keeps on giving. According to the Democrats, this flight so traumatized the immigrants involved that a civil rights lawsuit has been filed on their behalf.
But back in the real world, according to the Los Angeles Times, when the immigrants' friends and relatives overseas heard what happened to them, they … decided to try and come to the United States too.
SENATE DEMOCRATS COURTING 10 REPUBLICANS TO LEGALIZE DACA IN LAME-DUCK SESSION
"I heard you can get a lot of help out there," an immigrant's friend texted him through WhatsApp after news of the Martha's Vineyard flight spread. "Is it true?" That's right: The DeSantis flight was so harmful to the migrants involved that migrants from around the world are now lining up, hoping to get similar flights.
And the Biden administration is even trying to blame the border crisis, a crisis that Biden started 18 months before the DeSantis flight, on DeSantis.
Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Chris Magnus told the New York Times: "It's safe to say what's going on is a pull factor, which is somewhat ironic given the criticism from some of these same governors involved in this about various pull factors that they claim already exist."
It's good to see a Biden administration official finally acknowledge, after creating a full-blown crisis, that there are "pull factors" drawing people to enter the U.S. illegally. But it is laughable to claim that it is the free bus rides from Texas and Arizona to the East Coast that are causing them to come.
Not even Biden's open-borders allies are buying this argument. "People are not fleeing and trying to exercise their human right to seek safety because of a free bus ride," Amnesty International USA Advocacy Director Amy Fischer said.
Fischer is right, but she is wrong about people having a right to come to the U.S. Nearly 7 million immigrants have fled Venezuela since 2014. They have been living safely and free from government persecution in other countries for almost a decade now. There is no reason for them to come to the U.S. specifically, and they have no legal right to come here. There is no universal human right to move to whatever country on Earth you want.
The only reason these immigrants are illegally crossing our southern border now is that they are being told by the immigrants already here that the southern border is open, thanks to President Joe Biden. They know that the current Biden administration policy is to catch people illegally crossing the southern border and then release them into the U.S. to go wherever they want.
Until that policy changes, until Biden swallows his pride and reimplements President Donald Trump's successful "Remain in Mexico" program, the border crisis, which is killing record numbers of illegal immigrants, will only get worse.

It's the other guys' fault! LMAO
No Trump or his supports
This is what happens when you elect stupid into office. This bumbling idiot STILL doesn't grasp that it's his own policies that is allowing it to happen.
To top it off the hypocrite democrats that declared their cities sanctuary cities also declared an emergency when the illegals arrived in their cities and shipped them off on somewhere else.

Really, how are the immigrants already here relaying that false information?
How do they know this?
It's not true
Really, how are the immigrants already here relaying that false information?
I missed this - they're texting the information.
Still false.
But my mistake
Are you trying to claim that migrants don't have cell phones; or that they are incapable of using them to send a text message?
Please, do elaborate.
Did you not read 3.1?
JFC
I just said - I missed it - they're texting the information
FFS
I didn't miss anything.
What are you trying to claim?
That illegals aren't telling friends and relatives to come that our southern border is obviously wide open. Or that migrants don't own cell phones; and if they do don't know how to operate them?
Which is it?
Both are provably false. Just trying to figure out which you are wrong about.
Yes, you miss everything.
Darned right they are doing that. Living right on the border, I have friends that are Border Patrol agents who tell me that after apprehension, the first thing many illegals do is whip out their cell phones and call or text their family or buds back home and brag that they are safely across the border.
Maybe the immigrants already here are sending the message by coyote.
Yep, but if you use the two legged ones, that costs you extra...
Until that policy changes, until Biden swallows his pride and reimplements 'President' Donald Trump's successful "Remain in Mexico" program, the border crisis, which is killing record numbers of illegal immigrants, will only get worse.
No such thing
Not even Democrat media tools agree with you.
Why would I even check your links when 100 times out of 100 they're not backing up what you claim?
You won't look at the links but claim they don't back up what somebody says? That has to be one of THE DUMBEST things I've seen from you.
Exactly, why read what you won't understand.
I don't read things that aren't true.
Exactly, you can't trust NPR.
That don't back up their claims
Oh, they are read all right or they would not be commenting.
I'm not sure in all cases, I think that some here comment as only a reflex action not informed or thoughtful.
Especially the ones that just cannot stand the thought that others do not or will not share their particular political world view. Very sad.
Like the majority of your comments, not informed or thoughtful, but taunting and arrogant
Are you saying there's a chance you'll come round to my thinking?
I don;t think anyone would ever be that stupid to do so.
It would be cold day in Hades.
P.S. It is not President Biden's crisis - it's always a crisis at the border (according to republicans) when a Democrat is President.
Nice try. Biden is in office, he changed the border security operations on his 1st day in office via EO - he owns it. You should really pay attention.
So record breaking numbers crossing the border under Brandon's watch means nothing? Living in denial is no way to operate.
.
Brandon and the Democrats have been ringing the dinner bell for migrants since the Democrat primaries. They have changed to a gong since taking power in 2021.
If there is no border crisis then why are virtue signaling racist Democrats bitching so much about receiving just a fraction of the migrants entering this country?
No. [delete]
So lets what you are using as a source for your constant blathering. Or is the goal to troll?
A "crisis" on the border is usually a matter of degree from one administration to another. The current one just happens to orders of magnitude over the previous one. If President Biden had not opened the floodgates wide open to illegal immigration on day one of his administration and appointed somebody other than Kamala Harris to oversee it, things probably would be better. Harris has thus far proven totally incompetent as a border czar. Either way, Biden owns this one big time!
It's amusing that Democrats don't even have to offer coherent arguments to keep their base enraged.
Left side of the mouth: "Transporting illegal immigrants to sanctuary cities is human trafficking! The illegal aliens are being abused!
Right side of the mouth "The illegals are so happy with being transported to sanctuary cities they are encouraging more illegal immigration!"
