His administration has no answers, just absurd talking points
“Is somebody asking the foreign nationals who are walking in Del Rio, Texas, and setting up camps on [the U.S.] side of the border for proof of vaccination or a negative COVID test?” Fox News reporter Peter Doocy asked White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki on Monday.
He continued: “That is [the Biden administration’s] policy for people who fly into the country. So if somebody walks into the country, right across the river, does somebody ask them to see their vaccination card?”
Ms. Psaki’s answer was disingenuous, foolish, and nonsensical – much like President Joe Biden’s immigration and COVID-19 policies.
“They’re [southern border migrants] not intending to stay here for a lengthy period of time. I don’t think that’s the same thing,” she replied.
They do not intend to stay here for a lengthy period of time? The reason they’re crossing the border is that they want to live in the U.S. And as an aside, we have seen no “science” indicating “length of stay” cuts down on COVID-19 transmission.
What’s happening at our southern border is a humanitarian crisis. In the last several days, more than 15,000 Haitians made a make-shift camp under a bridge in Del Rio, living in conditions eyewitnesses describe as worse than a “third-world refugee camp,” constructing tents made of garbage and squatting in human excrement. --->READ MORE HERE

Yellow police tape is all there is holding back a small city’s worth of migrants from escaping the underbelly of an international bridge where they have camped out for days and become increasingly on edge.
Over the past five days, the grassy city land under the Del Rio-Acuna International Bridge has turned into a massive campsite for migrants who cross the Rio Grande River and wait for the Border Patrol to take them into custody. While Border Patrol agents are used to large numbers of noncitizens crossing, many said they have never seen anything like this.
Migrants who came across the border, before Texas troopers rolled up in full force on Saturday, weaved their way through the massive campsite and picked out their own dwelling spot, where they could expect to sleep and live for several days before being taken into custody.
Just a handful of federal agents were on-site below the bridge on Thursday, the day 4,000 people streamed across. Rather than running past the agents, the migrants, who are primarily from Haiti, waited at the bridge under the presumption that they would be detained then released into the United States with legal documents permitting them to remain here.
Some people began hand-cutting tall wild plants a few hundred feet in either direction then building tent-like shelters with the branches. Now, hundreds of plant-made huts dot the east and west sides of the bridge. --->READ MORE HEREFollow link to a related story below:
