The breakdown of Biden's border crackdown: President's ambitious plan to bring down migration from Cuba, Haiti and Nicaragua by 90% that includes 'rapid' expulsion to Mexico - but doesn't stop those flooding through gaps in the wall
2023-01-06
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • President Biden on Thursday announced crackdown on illegal border crossings

  • It extends restrictions on claiming asylum at the U.S.-Mexico border

  • Instead people from Cuba, Nicaragua, and Haiti must now apply for travel permit

  • But critics said it would do nothing to secure the border itself

  • And human rights groups blasted Biden for aping Republican policies


Biden FINALLY unveils plan for border crisis: Venezuelans, Nicaraguans, Haitians and Cubans will be 'rapidly' expelled and just 30,000 will be let in a month, Mexico will take back illegal crossers and migrants can use mobile APPS to set up appointments

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • President Joe Biden's immigration plan will allow 30,000 Venezuelans, Nicaraguans, Haitians and Cubans into the U.S. per month

  • They must, however, register their asylum claims using an app and then approach a U.S. port of entry, including airports

  • Biden said that Mexico will allow for just as many migrants to be 'rapidly' expelled if they cross the U.S.-Mexico border illegally

  • In a speech Thursday from the Roosevelt Room outlining the plan, Biden also confirmed he would be traveling to El Paso, Texas on Sunday


Compare to:
Trump vows to use NAVY blockades on drug cartels and use the military to inflict 'maximum damage' on Mexican crime gangs in his own border policy announcement before Biden's El Paso trip

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Donald Trump laid out his new migration plan to 'wage a war' on drug cartels

  • Said he would send in the Navy to tackle drug smugglers at sea

  • Joe Biden also laid out on Thursday his plan for the southern border crisis

  • Said he will continue using COVID-19 restrictions to expel border crossers

  • The administration will allow 30,000 people every month enter the U.S. by air

  • Reuters confirmed Biden will travel to El Paso, Texas on Sunday

#4  When he "visits the border" (Whatever can be twisted into meeting rather loose criteria?), I hope Mr. Biden is met by stone-faced border agents, those mounted agents who were falsely accused of horse-whipping invaders and after the "fact", slandered by the CiC.

#3  Any bets on Biden canceling his Mexico trip because of the Border/Narco fighting?

#1  Biden is targeting three specific groups. Most of the Cubans would be valid refugees to my understanding. His plan is talking about batches of 30k per month. That looks like window dressing to me.
