Republicans accuse Biden of 'intentional' border crisis: 'I mean, nobody is this incompetent'
|
[FoxNews] Senate Republicans accused President Biden of creating an "intentional" crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border, citing the administration's inaction on the issue despite record-breaking levels of illegal immigration.
Republican Senators led by Sen. James Lankford, R-Okla., highlighted the immigration crisis in a Wednesday press conference and urged the Biden administration to further extend its use of Title 42. Lankford noted that immigration surges in the 2010s amounted to roughly half a million illegal border crossings each year. Today, the U.S. sees more than half a million border crossings every two months, Lankford said.
Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., soon took the podium and questioned Biden's intentions.
"It is becoming harder and harder not to conclude that the border crisis is intentional. I mean, nobody is this incompetent, right?" Kennedy said. "The Biden administration's position on Title 42, on the Remain in Mexico program … none of the president's positions on this make any sense to me unless I view it from the perspective of, well, maybe he wants this to happen."
"I confess it is a mystery to me. Nobody is this incompetent. It has to be intentional," he added.
Title 42 is a Trump-era public health order allowing border officials to deny asylum requests to the vast majority of those crossing the border, citing the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Biden administration has sought repeatedly to end the policy, but border officials have warned that doing so would exacerbate the already-unprecedented immigration crisis.
