Biden's Big Immigration Win at the Supreme Court May Actually Be a Big Loss
Red State ^ | 06/30/2022 | Joe Cunningham

Posted on 06/30/2022 8:33:27 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

The Biden administration is celebrating a win at the Supreme Court in Biden v. Texas, which will allow him to proceed with getting rid of the Trump-era “Remain in Mexico” policy.

The policy allowed officials at the U.S. border to make immigrants wait in Mexico rather than cross into the United States by citing a public health crisis – COVID-19 – as the reason they cannot allow more people in. The rule was decried as racist by Democrats, and upon entering office, Biden worked to undo it. He was initially blocked by a judge in Texas, but took it all the way to the Supreme Court, securing a win.

Biden and the Democrats celebrated the ruling as a big win, but they have also guaranteed that voters, particularly those who are worried about the immigration crisis at the border, will be told in nonstop ads that Biden fought all the way up to the Supreme Court for the crisis.

Rescinding this policy opens the already-thrown floodgates even wider, allowing for greater numbers to flood the border with very little in the way to stop them from overwhelming border patrol. The Biden administration has thus far been reluctant to give federal agents any support, detention facilities, or funding to maintain control at the border. The result has been a flood of immigrants and a crisis that remains unchecked.

The death of 51 migrants in a truck trailer, a tragedy of human life we hadn’t yet seen in this crisis, was a clear sign that we are failing not just to protect our border, but to protect human life.

By winning at the Supreme Court, Biden and his administration are taking ownership of the crisis. They are saying they want all of these people coming in from South and Central America, flooding our border and causing chaos among law enforcement in the region. They are laying claim to the resulting human and drug trafficking that happens in the region. They are saying this is all part of the plan.

The crisis at the border will only get worse now that the Biden administration has cleared the way for more immigrants to be allowed in. This is their crisis now. And you have politicians all along the border and in several states where immigration is a top issue who will cut every ad imaginable linking Biden’s win to the worsening crisis.

Biden and his people denied that his election and rhetoric were an open invitation to those seeking to enter the country. There are multiple new stories that show differently. There are interviews with immigrants who say they are accepting Biden’s invitation and heading this way. That’s his legacy, and the win in Biden v. Texas is just more proof of that.

I suspect that the Biden administration didn’t actually want a win here. They wanted a 6-3 majority to say that they couldn’t do this. They wanted to tell their activist based “We tried!” and then move on. But they can’t now. The Supreme Court, with Kavanaugh and Roberts joining the liberal justices, has put the immigration crisis squarely on Joe Biden.

The Dems move the ball when they are in power. The Republicans (excepting Trump, who is thwarted by his own party) are so afraid of losing the ball they go up the middle three times straight and then punt it right back to the Dems.

Never underestimate Joe’s ability to screw things up.

No kidding. Next up: student loan forgiveness. Remember Obama’s long public ag ozone over gay marriage until….voila!… he “evolved” and supported it. So Biden has been supposedly long studying the loan forgiveness issue. He’s set his own deadline in August, selected to give him a boost among young voters in November. Instead, the long wait has allowed opposition to form. He’ll do something because he’s painted himself into a corner. Probably not enough to satisfy his base, but most anything will be enough to piss off those who don’t have loans to be forgiven.

Thank the Lord these people are absolute imbeciles. They’re doing enough damage as idiots; if they were smart we’d be truly doomed

The logic in this article reads to me like "yes he inherited millions but his taxes will go way up and he will worry about how to invest his riches! See, he's really losing by getting all that money!"

He will now "own this crisis"? Does the author think the dems give a rats rump about public perception when they are getting everything they want?

Put the crisis squarely on a potato?

Why do these writers think that Plugs is in charge of anything?

The writer’s denial of a Potato in Chief means he/she are participating in the steal.

In the long run it will not hurt the communists nor deterre them from their almost completed strategies & goals...

Both the sheeple and GOP politicians have been, and will continue to, mentally masturbate over the migrant vermin invasion...

Where, since 1966, do you find any evidence that this onslaught will be stopped and reversed?

The 2022 elections may produce a GOP Congress, but history shows what we can expect with any certainty...

Excluding the Congress in the late 1990s, there has been no permanent long-term stopping of the invasion by Mexico...
Even the couple of attempts (like the wall) simply slow the disease, not stop or cure it...

Name the politician who has spoken the two words that encompass the only possible cure for the migrant vermin invasion and its crippling long-term economic and cultural consequences that have been the most important elements of the communists' sucess in imposing the tyranny we now live under...
Those words are: "mass deportations"...

All 45-to 50 million of the MIVs have to be deported if there is to be any hope of restoring America...

I couldn’t care less if they were corpses. It is the living ones I don’t want here.

The article sounds like he is mixing two programs - the Anti-disease one, and the Asylum-seeker one.

They weren’t corpses when they left Mexico. The open border encourages such atrocities.

I doubt Biden views this as a loss. I see it as a win for socialists.

This what BOTH parties cheated Trump out to get.

The MOST important thing to both parties is importing a new electorate that will vote to subsume the USA to the UN in a New World Order.

It’s been a 30 year bipartisan project.

Isn’t the larger “win” the acknowledgement that executive orders are only as good until the next President? How many times did Trump get screwed by that.

Once upon a time, back when we had REAL journalists, some enterprising reporter would have ferreted out who is really pulling Uncle Joe’s strings.

But we don’t have real journalists anymore.

“ will be told in nonstop ads that Biden fought all the way up to the Supreme Court for the crisis.”

The author assumes the RNC would actually do this.

This doesn’t have any impact at all. They were finding ways around it, and they ignore court rulings and the law anyway.
