Biden blamed by own ex-border chief for soaring asylum cases, record immigration court backlog

The Biden administration is to blame for soaring asylum cases that have created a record years-long backlog in U.S. immigration courts, according to President Joe Biden's own former Border Patrol chief.

"Several factors have contributed to this backlog, but the massive increase that we're seeing today can be directly attributed to the Biden administration's border and immigration policies," said Rodney Scott, who headed the Border Patrol in both the Trump and Biden administrations.

"When the Biden administration went against the recommendations of experienced career border security professionals, terminated the Migrant Protection Protocols, canceled the Asylum Cooperative Agreements, and lowered the bar for credible fear determinations," Scott continued, "they sent a message worldwide and opened the flood gates for anyone that could make up a sad story or recite the one that was provided to them by the cartel and so-called migrant aid organizations operating in Mexico."

The Trump administration implemented both the Migrant Protection Protocols and the Asylum Cooperative Agreements. The former, commonly called the Remain in Mexico policy, requires some migrants seeking asylum to stay in Mexico as they await their immigration court date rather than be detained or released in the U.S. The latter are a series of agreements negotiated with Central American countries to curtail asylum fraud and limit asylum access to the U.S.

This poor guy will now be the target of an IRS or FBI investigation now. The Biden administration will seek to destroy him, and Democrat activists will post his personal address online and target his home and family for speaking out. This is how fascists destroy someone who speaks the truth.

People need to wake up and realize, they don’t care, this is on purpose. Biden is wildly successful in the left’s eyes. All part of the “Fundamental transformation of America”.
