Biden admin facing growing questions about why it wasn’t more prepared for migrant surge at Mexico border
KTLA ^ | Mar 20, 2021 | Associated Press

Somehow, they didn’t see it coming.

Within weeks of Inauguration Day on Jan. 20, the Biden administration had reversed many of the most maligned Trump-era immigration policies, including deporting children seeking asylum who arrived alone at the U.S.-Mexico border and forcing migrants to wait in Mexico as they made their case to stay in the United States.

...

Now officials are scrambling to build up capacity to care for some 14,000 migrants now in federal custody — and more likely on the way — and the administration finds itself on its heels in the face of criticism that it should have been better prepared to deal with a predictable predicament.

Sorry for the short excerpt but this is an AP story.

Biden's handlers screwed up big time on this. And they're attempting to hide it by not allowing reporters into the border area.

To continue to Hype "the COVID Crisis", Biden is now importing HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS" of ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS" infected with the disease and distributing them, untracked, all around the country.

This will provide the numbers to continue to panic the public into accepting the FASCIST social controls, lockdowns, distancing, vaccines, masks, etc.

Because they cheated and they are not legitimate. They need to be removed so the guy who actually won can take his rightful place.

It’s not like AOC is gonna fly down there and have more crying pics.
The MSM can ignore this just as easily as they do SlowJoe’s declining abilities.

Another 10-20 million soon to arrive and added to the 30-45 million already here. Another nail in the coffin of the Republic. I can’t believe what’s happening to our country...

Prepared? Biden encouraged the surge. Dems politicians want them here. They are the political lifeblood for Congressional Dem vampires.

Helen Keller even saw this coming. Millions of illegals new they would never get across when Trump was president. But as soon as Biden took office? The pathway was clear.

We will hear this many times over the next several months/years. Unfortunately it will be about every issue not just immigration.

Their answer will come out when they invent a scenario that sufficiently lays blame on Tump....wait for it.

It reminds me of the kids in school who went to the most incredible lengths to cheat on a test... when, with half that much effort, they could have just studied and passed

Liberals are addicted to cheating and telling lies. It’s their default

Biden’s administration ‘saw it coming’... it was what they wanted to happen.

All of us need to stop pretending the horrible things happening are ‘mistakes’ or happening because they had no clue...

It’s not true. They knew what would happen. We knew. The illegals flooding toward the US knew... Mexico knew..

Why wasn’t the Biden Admin more prepared for the verbal tongue-lashing it got from the Chinese yesterday?

“It’s not like AOC is gonna fly down there and have more crying pics.”

Seriously, why can’t we use that picture and say she was just down there this week?

Would she deny it?
