We reported earlier about how Joe Biden had finally gotten around to making plans to go to the border.
Biden also made remarks about the border, with Kamala Harris trying to hold it together while standing behind him. The remarks were just a confused mess. Biden didn’t seem to have any idea what he was talking about. He didn’t know what “CBP” stands for, that it is Title 8 that applies to immigration, or that Title 42 has helped to prevent the situation at the border from getting much worse.
His “plan” seems to be an app that would help people who apply for asylum.
“First, if they are seeking asylum, they can use an app on their cell phone called CBP One…to schedule an appointment at a port of entry and make their asylum claim there without crossing the border unlawfully and have a decision determine by an asylum officer do they qualify,” he explained.
Fox’s Bill Melugin noted the flaw in this policy.
Analysis: This new policy will almost certainly reduce *recorded* monthly border crossing numbers because these nationalities are crossing in massive numbers. However, migrants not eligible for parole will have no incentive to turn themselves in now, & will evade as “gotaways”.

But under the new policy, Biden will also be allowing in 30,000 applicants a month from four countries — Venezuela, Cuba, Haiti, and Nicaragua — who will be able to come in and work legally for up to two years. To qualify, applicants must apply from their home countries, pass a background check and prove they have a financial supporter in the U.S.
Given what we’ve seen from the Biden administration in the past, does anyone believe that they will properly vet anyone? They’ve already proven they don’t care about that. Then what happens at the end of two years? Are they going to kick people out who are then here illegally? We all know the answer to that. What happens after you meet the 30,000 quota, which will be met very quickly?
He also finally got around to telling people not to come. A little late after two years.

But he also made some outrageous claims that need to be called out, including making a comparison to the Holocaust.
Did Joe Biden seriously just compare German Jews fleeing the Holocaust to illegal aliens filing illegitimate asylum claims? pic.twitter.com/z3nWK6eNTS

People should have the ability to apply for asylum. But in most cases, people crossing the border illegally don’t qualify for asylum; they’re purely economic migrants. Even those facing persecution aren’t facing a Holocaust situation. It’s shameful to make such a comparison.
On top of that, he blamed the Republicans for his failure to go to the border. It took incredible gall, after saying he was too busy and indicating that he had more important things to do; Now he tries to blame the groups pushing to get things done on the border. The Republicans have been begging for action, while he ignored them or acted against their efforts to stem the flood of illegal immigration. This is straight-up nonsense.
After recently stating there were more important things to do than visit the southern border, Biden now says he hasn't visited because Republicans aren't serious about border security and he wanted to see what was going to happen with the legal challenges over Title 42. pic.twitter.com/plKbbOirlt

Biden out and out lied about “extreme Republicans” saying “no” to more resources at the border.

That’s not just a lie; it’s bizarre, and the opposite of the truth–when it’s the Democrats who have refused to properly defend the border. He should be ashamed when he lies like that, but he’s not because he’s shameless.
Biden finished off his remarks by answering a question about the ongoing race for the Speaker of the House. But he couldn’t say “attention” and needed the help of Kamala “Word Salad” Harris to give him the right word.
Reporter: "Are you still monitoring the Speaker's race?"
Biden: "I'm following with great… uhh… How do I say it?"
Kamala: "Attention."

Yikes, it’s getting worse.
I heard some of that speech. Biden’s voice was much lower than usual and did not sound like him.
I heard that they altered his voice. I don’t even know how one does that live.
I had family that went through the Shoah (commonly called the Holocaust), roughly 70 of whom did not survive. I also knew some survivors, and a very few of them told me (or a group that I was in, about some of their horrifying experiences. While I do not doubt that some illegal immigrants are mistreated in some ways, I absolutely and utterly RESENT Biden’s comparison of the suffering between the two groups, because there IS no comparison.
First, the Jews, gypsies, and others who were victimized by the Nazis did not actually do anything wrong, other than to exist, and be different from the “ideal” person according to the sick Nazi creed. Illegals, on the other hand, choose to violate US law, and do so knowing that they may be detained, incarcerated, and/or returned to their country of origin. There is a world of difference between the reasons why the two groups were/are treated as they were/are.
But second, and FAR more importantly, I have not heard a single word about illegal entrants to the United States being deprived of the livelihoods, having their property confiscated, being beaten in the streets with the approval and support of the government, being brutally herded onto cattle cars, being starved and/or worked to death, being medically experimented upon, being tortured, seeing family murdered in front of their eyes or being shot or gassed to death, and then cremated in a purposeful act known to be contrary to the religious beliefs of the victims. Though I do not envy what the illegals who are caught have to go through, there is simply no comparison that is possible - ABSOLUTELY NONE - between what they go through as a natural and foreseeable consequence of their choice, vs. the horrors that the victims of the holocaust went through simply for existing.
So, in conclusion, I recommend that Joseph Robinette Biden perform an anatomically impossible act upon himself. Barring that, I call upon him to resign from a job that he is clearly incapable of doing. More than that I cannot state in a public forum - though, believe me, I would like to do so.
Biden is a leftist/marxist Democrat.
Big Brother can do no wrong. If this were Trump it would be 24/7 mockery on all the networks.
We live in and endure a dystopian reality. Someday the Lord will return and end it all.
Brandon has no doubt offended (rightly so) many families like yours.
Harris and Biden two of the biggest nit wits ever to hold office the democrats finest.
Fetterman applauds
Western Civilization is determined to die on the hill of White Guilt. Sad.
Biden is stupid, but a psychopath on top of it.
Hitler’s National Socialist Party murdered 11.5 million people in concentration camps ... I don’t see anyone doing that to illegal aliens. Biden is delusional, and has slipped the leash.
May the fleas of a thousand camels infest his cro ... uhhh ... armpits!
????
Can't be very many of them still alive ...
That commercial irks me too and is exactly what the perverts who run that commercial are doing. They use the Holocaust as a sympathetic tool to tug at the heartstrings of generous Americans or others solely to enrich their own bank account. Their misinfo creates charitable mistrust. The worst kind of parasites.
