Ex-border chief: Biden intentionally 'handed over our southern border to the cartels'
[JustTheNews] Administration is "absolutely defying" a Supreme Court order to reinstate Trump's Remain in Mexico policy, said former Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Mark Morgan.In August, the Supreme Court declined to stay a lower court order that the Biden administration restart the Remain in Mexico policy. Biden is "just giving lip service" to the policy, Morgan said. The administration is "just absolutely defying the court order right now," he continued. "Give you an example: In the month of December, while 178,000 illegal aliens broken into our country — in one month, in 30 days — in that same 30-day period, the Biden administration enrolled about 260 migrants in the Remain in Mexico program. "It's having no effect, they're not taking it seriously. And let's keep in mind, the [Homeland Security] secretary [Alejandro Mayorkas] — as he's doing his just-shut-up-and-take-it tour to the agents out there — he's been very clear that he's also actively trying to end the program." Meanwhile, Morgan noted, the FBI's counterterrorism mission has "been made exponentially more difficult because of the open border policy of this administration." Border Patrol "has apprehended illegal aliens from 150 different countries — including, China, Afghanistan, Ukraine, Russia, the list goes on and on," he said. "They absolutely have expanded our national security vulnerability directly due to their open border policy." As a stopgap, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott is using his state's Department of Public Safety and National Guard to execute Operation Lone Star, which has "apprehended over 100,000 illegal aliens, thousands of guns, tens of thousands of pounds of narcotics that would have made their way to every town, city, and state," Morgan explained.
