President Biden has taken the position that Central American and other migrants attempting to enter the United States across our southern border are legitimate asylum seekers who are fleeing for their lives. The president has been harshly critical of his predecessor, who took the view that most of those attempting to reach the United States are economic migrants seeking better opportunities, rather than escaping persecution. President Biden has labeled former President Trump's policies that barred many migrants from entering the U.S. as "cruel" or "inhumane."

From the White House's perspective, the timing could not have been worse. The immediacy of the new arrivals suggested direct cause and effect between the president's words and deeds and the growing numbers of migrants, particularly unaccompanied minors. The worsening situation at the border coincides with other crises the administration is endeavoring to deal with, most notably COVID-19 and its effects on the U.S. economy and labor market.

So, on March 1, President Biden sent his Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas to explain the situation to the White House press corps and the American public.
Big mistake. First, Secretary Mayorkas torpedoed the president's claim to the moral high ground on immigration and political asylum by casting doubt on whether the people arriving at the border are legitimately in danger: "We are not saying, 'Don't come.' We are saying, 'Don't come now because we will be able to deliver a safe and orderly process to them as quickly as possible.'"
Aside from the obvious mixed message of "come, but just not now," the secretary's statement exposed some serious contradictions in the administration's positions. If the people arriving at the border are legitimately in danger and need our immediate protection, how can we ethically ask them to sit tight? If they can wait (a week? a month? six months?), then they were never really legitimate asylum seekers in the first place. Thus, there was no basis for the Biden administration to cancel the "Remain in Mexico" policy and agreements with the governments of the Northern Triangle countries that were put in place by the past administration.


Typical DPST Hypocrisy - they value illegals from south america far more than the people who are citizens and Voted the radical marxist DPST's into office.
