After Biden proposed a single rule to limit illegal border crossings, Democrats shot back with 'disappointment' at him. Trump previously tried to impose a similar rule, but it was blocked by federal courts.
President Joe Biden is taking a single step toward addressing the border crisis. The shift angered congressional Democrats so much that they decided to broadcast how “disappointed” they are with the administration, showing once again that the Democratic Party simply wants no security at all at the southern border.
Biden’s new proposed rule would make it harder for immigrants to attain asylum unless they can prove that they were denied asylum in Mexico or another third country. It’s a relatively anodyne proposal, more of a half-hearted half-measure to try and prevent the border from being flooded with even more illegal immigrants with dubious asylum claims as Title 42 expires in May.
But even the prospect of a rule that would prevent the southern border from being further overwhelmed has upset congressional Democrats. Sens. Cory Booker , Bob Menendez , Ben Ray Lujan , and Alex Padilla said in a statement that they were “deeply disappointed” with the proposal and that it “only perpetuates the harmful myth that asylum-seekers are a threat to this nation.”
The Congressional Hispanic Caucus has also cried foul over the rule. Rep. Jerry Nadler , the top Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, and Rep. Pramila Jayapal , the chairwoman of the House Progressive Caucus, also issued a joint statement expressing how “deeply disappointed” they are.In the meantime, border communities are still being overwhelmed.
None of this concerns congressional Democrats, though. In fact, they are perfectly fine with it, which is why they only ignore the border crisis unless they can find a way to demonize Border Patrol agents or attack Republicans. Even President Joe Biden simply pretending to care about the border crisis is enough of a threat to the Democratic Party's ideal of open borders for them to complain.
