Chuck Schumer Warns Joe Biden on Border Policy: ‘You’ve Got to Do Better’
Breitbart ^ | 03.13.2021 | Neil Munro

Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is warning President Joe Biden to clamp down on the uncontrolled migrant inflow at the U.S. border.

“They are rolling up their sleeves and working on this. I think it will get better in the next few months,” Schumer told ABC’s The View on Thursday, adding, “If it doesn’t, I will go to them and say, ‘You’ve got to do better.’ I will be public.”

Schumer is very pro-migration, but has adopted a cautious strategy towards migration legislation since 2014 when Democrats lost five Senate seats after voters punished them for Schumer’s 2013-14 “Gang of Eight” amnesty push. The 2014 loss left Schumer in the minority during all four years of President Donald Trump’s tenure.

Other Democrats are trying to warn Biden and his deputies, who include many pro-migration zealots such as Alejandro Mayorkas, the current secretary at the Department of Homeland Security.

“The problem is, they’re listening to immigrants and activists, which is okay,” Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX) told Fox News March 6. The border representative added:

But they’ve got to listen to the local communities, and they’ve got to listen to those men and women in green. Because, first of all, our Border Patrol agents have not been vaccinated, not all of them. we have to get them vaccinated. We’ve got to get our NGOs vaccinated as we’re letting thousands of people [come] in.

Democrats’ concern about Biden’s easy-migration border policies may help explain the slow movement of the their party’s amnesty bills through the House and Senate.

It’s Kabuki, Scummer is just putting out covering fire as a distraction and to buy time. They all want this, they just don’t want the squishy middle getting all “uppity”.

I watched a news report on the border crisis. It had 5 or 6 different clips of border apprehensions. In every clip there was at least 1 very pregnant woman, in some clips there were multiple very pregnant women. How did they get here? They are not going back.
