Tone-deaf Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on Wednesday shrugged off attempts to blame Biden’s border policy for the horrific slaughter of Americans at the hands of illegal migrants, saying, “The individual who is responsible for a heinous criminal act is the criminal.”
His comment during a press conference from a Border Patrol aircraft hangar in Tucson, Arizona — some 70 miles from the nearest border crossing — came in response to a question about 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray, who was brutalized and murdered in Houston, allegedly by two Venezuelan migrants who were released into the US earlier this year.
“We screen and vet individuals when we encounter them,” he said.
Border agents quickly responded with skepticism to Mayorkas’ claims that the DHS was sufficiently vetting anybody crossing the US border, saying his comments Wednesday show he’s living in “fairytale land.”
“I don’t know what Mayorkas is smoking because it needs to be legalized,” one Border Patrol source told The Post.
“If by vetting he means fingerprinting and doing some half-a**ed background check that has access to almost nothing outside of the United States, then yeah it’s a great process.”
He defended the border vetting procedures — even while acknowledging at least eight ISIS-linked suspected terrorists managed to slip through US custody and enter the country.
The Post first reported on the ISIS suspects being arrested after traveling as far as Los Angeles, Philadelphia, and New York.

Alejandro, that’s that bald pedo looking guy, right?

Under Trump, they wouldn’t have been allowed in the country.
“It’s mental... You act like absolute spineless cowards as a country letting every bloody ... Abdul or whoever into your country – you don’t know nothing about them, their criminal histories, or anything, or their ideologies, and then you turn up mob-handed for me for giving a talk at a seminar.”

Criminals cause crimes...not policy
however, guns cause murders, not criminals...
Which is it, Ale?
Doh!
Where is one of those soft cushioned Nerf bats when you need it? Somebody deserves a good Bop on the noggin for a boneheaded reply to a serious question.
Funny how when someone goes on a shooting rampage the left blames the gun but when one of their illegal alien dem voters kills a child it’s the criminals fault not the fact we are importing every piece of vile crap into this country
Building a fence won’t stop the flood. They can climb over (or cut through) the fence if no border patrol agent is around, or they can yell to ask for asylum if an agent is around.
Article 31. - Refugees unlawfully in the country of refuge
1. The Contracting States shall not impose penalties, on account of their illegal entry or presence, on refugees who, coming directly from a territory where their life or freedom was threatened in the sense of article 1, enter or are present in their territory without authorization, provided they present themselves without delay to the authorities and show good cause for their illegal entry or presence.
2. The Contracting States shall not apply to the movements of such refugees restrictions other than those which are necessary and such restrictions shall only be applied until their status in the country is regularized or they obtain admission into another country. The Contracting States shall allow such refugees a reasonable period and all the necessary facilities to obtain admission into another country.
Article 32. - Expulsion
1. The Contracting States shall not expel a refugee lawfully in their territory save on grounds of national security or public order.
2. The expulsion of such a refugee shall be only in pursuance of a decision reached in accordance with due process of law. Except where compelling reasons of national security otherwise require, the refugee shall be allowed to submit evidence to clear himself, and to appeal to and be represented for the purpose before competent authority or a person or persons specially designated by the competent authority.
3. The Contracting States shall allow such a refugee a reasonable period within which to seek legal admission into another country. The Contracting States reserve the right to apply during that period such internal measures as they may deem necessary.

Article 44 - Denunciation [getting out from under the Refugee Convention]
1. Any Contracting State may denounce this Convention at any time by a notification addressed to the Secretary-General of the United Nations.
2. Such denunciation shall take effect for the Contracting State concerned one year from the date upon which it is received by the Secretary-General of the United Nations....
NOTE: I do not trust any politician who has not called for invoking Article 44 to get the US out from under the Refugee Convention. And my distrust extends to Trump and DeSantis.
The Refugee Convention must be removed from the Democratic Party toolbox by invoking Article 44.
Too bad there was no gun involved. They could have blamed it.
He wants you to blame the snake, not his boss who put it in your house.
He reminds me of the guard on the cliff towards the end of the movie Conan The Barbarian, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. James Earl Jones plays the enemy ruler who has mesmerized his followers into unquestioning belief in his every word.
To prove his power to Conan, Jones points to a guard on the cliff and the guard obediently jumps to his death.
That's Mayorkas... and the rest of them, too.
Only it's not Biden that they're listening to. It's Obama.

Was he rubbing his hands when he said this?

Lots of safety for refugees.
President Trump needs to emphasize that tomorrow, that this poor girl would still be alive and well under his tenure. Her murder is on Biden and Mayorkas. Her blood is on their hands. Hammer that point home regardless of what names Tapper and Bash might call him.
How come we were all told that we had George Floyd’s blood on our hands
So now criminals are responsible for murder now and no longer the guns fault.
