The White House sidestepped a question about why it continues to let untested and unvaccinated illegal immigrants into the United States while tennis star Novak Djokovic is not allowed to enter to play in this year's U.S. Open.
Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy questioned the Biden administration about the paradox during Monday's news briefing.
"How come migrants are allowed to come into this country unvaccinated, but world-class tennis players are not?" he asked White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre.
"The U.S. government cannot discuss the details of individual visa cases. Due to privacy reasons, the U.S. also does not comment on medical information of individual travelers as it relates to this tennis player," she replied.
Djokovic, the 2022 Wimbledon champion, will miss the U.S. Open over his refusal to get vaccinated.
Jean-Pierre deferred the question to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which she said has its own protocols, saying "it's two different things."
Doocy further pressed Jean-Pierre on remarks.
"Somebody unvaccinated comes over on a plane, you say that's not okay. Somebody walks into Texas or Arizona unvaccinated, they're allowed to stay?"
"That's not how it works. ... It's not like someone walks over," she replied.
"That's exactly what is happening!" Doocy responded. "Thousands of people are walking in a day. Some of them turn themselves over. Some of them are caught. Tens of thousands a week are not. That is what is happening."

The tennis player can’t vote Democrat.
One is legal entry, the others are illegal entries.
Due to privacy restrictions, we can’t tell you why we rounded up and jailed everyone you know - other than that, as we have seen, and as we have made clear in our efforts to make clear, they were all threats to our Democracy.
How about this: “The U.S. does not want to discuss this position because it knows their position is wrong.” This is probably a reasonable answer for many other positions this administration also doesn’t want to take.
“White House says unvaccinated migrants allowed in US and tennis player who isn’t are two different things”
No they are not. Shiwing weird paper work in order to fly is not the sane RealID either.
Which reminds me, tell me why again, can’t RealID be used for voter ID?
They found someone dumber than Jen Psaki to be the White House Paid Liar .... that’s a feat as Jen was a mentally challenged diversity hire.
Insane nonsense.
Give credit to Doocy for trying, but it’s tough to overcome the lying and he is buying into it, when he compounds the lie by saying what he did.
“”How come migrants are allowed to come into this country unvaccinated”
They are not migrants by any stretch of the imagination. They are illegal invaders, an army sized unit on a daily basis and a President, Administration and a Congress GUILTY OF TREASON for allowing it. Nicolai has nothing on this bunch. Migrants? A pox on you people for lying to the American people daily, and a pox on us for swallowing the lie. Oh, and a pox on those kind folks paying for the invasion of the United States of America. A pox on the States that can’t muster what it takes to stop it. A President literally getting away with murder daily. There is no other way to look at this situation We the People are in.
Which reminds me, tell me why again, can’t RealID be used for voter ID?
Because the States made it happen after the Federal Leviathan attached money to their idea that no one was buying until it was mandated of the States and now there are States that refuse the mandate as the goal posts are moved almost daily to get the recalcitrant to buy in. It ain’t happening.
If you don’t have a gold star on your drivers license your State may not be part of the Real ID effort. See the links:

Information on non compliance is a bit more difficult to find than information on compliance. https://iapp.org/news/a/why-some-states-wont-comply-with-real-id-requirements/
Unfortunately SD was one of the first to bend the knee for Real ID and money was one of the ingredients leading to quick compliance.
Yeah! The tennis player won’t be allowed to vote.
If I was Abbott I would contact this tennis player and get him to go to Mexico and cross the Rio. Abbott should be there to shake his hand and ride the bus with him to NYC. The symbology would be awesome!!!
