Biden lashed out at Becerra during Oval Office meeting on migrant kids amid HHS-White House tensions: reports There are more than 20,000 migrant children in HHS custody

Biden reportedly lashed out at Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Xavier Becerra over his department’s handling of migrant children -- amid broader reported tensions between the White House and HHS.

Biden "lashed out" at Becerra in a March 30 Oval Office meeting when Becerra allegedly failed to have answers for questions about the agency’s ability to take care of migrant kids, according to The New York Times.

The Biden administration has been facing a dramatic surge in migrants at the border -- particularly unaccompanied children, who the Biden administration is not removing via Title 42 public health protections that are being used to remove some families and single adults.

The numbers of unaccompanied children have decreased slightly in April from the sky-high numbers in March and Border Patrol facilities have been emptied. But the migrants have been moved to HHS facilities instead, where numbers have ballooned.

There are currently more than 20,000 migrants in HHS custody, up from just under 12,000 at the end of March. The Associated Press reported that migrants are being housed at more than 200 sites in multiple states.

Facing such a historic influx of child migrants, the majority of which are going to be "reunited" with sponsors already in the country, Becerra has reportedly been urging a cautious line, despite his past as someone who pushed left-wing policies on immigration.

Politico reported that the White House has "bristled" at Becerra’s approach as they push HHS to speed up the intake of the tens of thousands of migrant children. Separately, sources told the outlet that he is seen as indecisive and too slow to seize the situation

Becerra, meanwhile, has reportedly been frustrated by the White House moves to drop immigration restrictions and policies before he was confirmed, the outlet said.

Becerra probably thought: Why aren’t you getting mad at your precious VP Kamala, Mr. Biden? Isn’t she supposed to be the Border Czar?
I’m just treading water here, wearing all the hats!

Catholic Diocesan programs are surely on the receiving end of most of these transfers of unaccompanied illegal alien minors. And receiving buco bucks for doing so. No wonder the U.S. Bishops are in the process of being muzzled when it comes to denying communion to pro-abort politicians. Follow the money.

How did he lash out? Maybe he beeped red twice for "very angry."

The illegal alien Becerra is telling the WH to slow down, DHS can’t take anymore and Biden is pissed his intake is too slow.

That’s what I think I just read.

20,000 kids? Well, that is just about enough to replenish the kids the pedos need that our military saved from the pedos.

It’s not The Biden regime’s fault that all this happening. It’s this guy named Becerra, yeah that’s the ticket.

This is how they are dealing with the crisis: they leak a story about how mad Biden is about it so he looks tough while they do nothing real.

Oh B.S! The only thing Biden was lashing out at Becerra was how come he wasn’t getting strawberry ice cream when he wanted vanilla. The man doesn’t give two spits about the border in the state of mind he is in now.

You could walk into a room with twenty idea-people and put the task on the table, and there’s probably a hundred different variations of resolving this, but all would be drawing continual public attention and have a cost factor. Other than admitting in public you won’t allow any more migrants, and the work on the wall will continue....there’s no fix.

I would suggest this...if Biden-team can’t get a handle on this and it continues to escalate for all of 2021, and even going into the first half of 2022...the mid-term election is going to be about immigration and the failed Biden program. There’s probably forty House seats to flip because of this.
