Biden border nominee refuses to call migrant surge a 'crisis,' claims no 'ready-to-go plan' to solve it

BIDEN TAPS TUCSON, ARIZONA, POLICE CHIEF CHRIS MAGNUS AS CBP NOMINEE

Chris Magnus said he takes the situation very seriously, 'regardless of what we call it'

President Biden’s pick to lead U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Chris Magnus, would not call the surge of migrants crossing the southern border a crisis, but he acknowledged that it is a "very serious" matter for which he provided no solution.

During his confirmation hearing before the Senate Finance Committee Tuesday, the former Tucson, Arizona police chief was asked by Sen. Todd Young, R-Ind., if the border situation had reached crisis level.

"Let me assure you that no one believes there is greater urgency to this matter than I do," Magnus replied.

This led Young to say that "urgent strikes the common ear as less than a crisis," before asking, "Are you saying there is not a crisis at the border?"

Young said that, according to the Department of Homeland Security, 1.3 million migrants have crossed the border.

"What number of illegal crossings would you consider to be a crisis?" he asked. "What if we were to quintuple that number, would you then call it a crisis?"

Magnus said that "the situation is very serious" and that "regardless of what we call it, it is something important to me."

The left doesn’t want to stop it, they want more of it. They intend to replace Americans with the third world so they can stay in power forever. Most Americans refuse to vote for them. It’s why they are guilty of constant election fraud.

Well it certainly isn’t a crisis. It seems like a well executed plan to me.

He was the police chief who posed with the BLM sign after Ferguson. That was prior to being Tucson’s chief. He’s also gay so extra brownie points.

I missed the fact that he was a police chief in Tucson AZ. WTH, that is almost at ground zero.

It drives me crazy when these bastards can’t answer a simple question and constantly give BS answers especially with the “Generals” when it came to Biden ignoring their advice. All of them protecting that scumbag

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Magnus

I just looked Chris Magnus on Wikipedia. I know that It is sometimes it is not the most accurate. I live in Phoenix and I had no idea about this man. He is a disgrace and should have nothing to do with the border.

More and more I am thinking that biden is obama’s alter ego.

The Magnus confirmation hearing was scary.
