When President Joe Biden appointed Vice President Kamala Harris to "lead" on
the mess he created at the border, his supportive press welcomed it as a monumental decision. In reality, he just handed his vice president a bag of dog doo.

Axios put it)!
Speaking at the White House on Wednesday, Biden said Harris was "the most qualified person" to "help in stemming the movement of so many folks, stemming the migration to our southern border."
The media were elated. The
New York Times said that the announcement "underscores the sense of urgency at the border," as if Harris was ready to don a cape, stand in front of the endless stream of migrants flooding into the country, and tell them to immediately halt.
Harris won't actually be doing anything substantive. As Harris herself put it, she will be "engaging in diplomacy." That means she'll be asking the heads of the governments in Mexico, El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras to please, pretty, pretty please help us with our problem, which, yes, existed before Biden was in office, but which he compounded by a factor of 10 by promising to open the border.
Biden also said his administration would restore some $700 million of annual foreign aid to the region, which
had been cut off in 2019 by former President Donald Trump. But the reason that aid was cut off in the first place is precisely because those governments weren't doing anything to break up the so-called caravans of tens of thousands of people making their way here.
It was only after Trump cut off the aid that Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemala began to help, and guess what — the number of migrants crossing into the United States
plummeted.
The previous administration had put together a complex and relatively effective system at the border to stem the flow of destitute migrants hoping to claim asylum, thus securing loads of goodies courtesy of taxpayers. The moment Biden was sworn into office, he began taking that system apart and bragging while doing it.
He's created a disaster and is now handing it off to Harris so that she can pretend to know how to fix it by doing anything but the things that will actually fix it.
The only person who should be happy here is Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. Until this week, he was the one
looking dumb because he was the one responsible for the border chaos. Well, now that problem is no longer his. It's Harris's.
Congratulations to Kamala Harris.
