EL PASO — President Joe Biden has landed in El Paso, where he will visit the U.S.-Mexico border for the first time since taking office in the White House.

He was greeted by Gov. Greg Abbott upon arrival at the El Paso airport. Abbott has been a chief critic of Biden’s immigration policies and has frequently called on him to visit the border over the past year as the number of migrant arrests has broken records.

Biden’s office said he “will assess border enforcement operations and meet with local elected officials and community leaders who have been important partners in managing the historic number of migrants fleeing political oppression and gang violence.”

Biden goes to border and sees a couple of drug dogs sniffing cars, a big truck and a four wheeler so far. Will he look at the river and the border and at the camps of migrants in El Paso and the thousands lined up waiting to come in.

Biden ordered the entire area cleaned out of illegals so that it would look like there is no crisis

Careful, Joe. Don’t get chased by one of those Giant Aardvarks. It’s almost rutting season.

Any chance of nudging him over the border and then revoking his passport?

On second thought, that would not work as it would likely be easier for him to cross back over as an uninvited “guest”

Hopefully the illegals will give him a warm welcome so they can show their appreciation.

Hey Mexico! You can have him for a burrito. Heck, you don’t even have to put meat or beans in it. In fact, just give us a tortilla . . . ah, just give us the empty package it came in and we’ll give you our empty package. Si?

So which local elected official has the guts to tear Biden a new one. It needs to be done publicly.

But if they cross the Rio Grande, they have wet backs, right? It’s time to be unmercifully brutal. They are not welcome. Make sure they know it the rest of their lives or until the leave.

The governor handed the letter to President Biden after greeting him on the tarmac at the El Paso International Airport.

“This chaos is the direct result of your failure to enforce the immigration laws that Congress enacted,” reads the letter. “Your open-border policies have emboldened the cartels, who grow wealthy by trafficking deadly fentanyl and even human beings. Texans are paying an especially high price for your failure, sometimes with their very lives, as local leaders from your own party will tell you if given the chance. On behalf of all Americans, I implore you: Secure our border by enforcing Congress’s immigration laws.”
