GOP detractors blasted Biden for getting a ‘sanitized’ view of the havoc his policies created during his El Paso visit, his first border tour as president,...
GOP detractors say Biden avoided the worst of the border havoc his policies created. Democrats counter that Republicans long have used the border for photo ops.
“It’s about damn time,” he said, calling Biden’s visit “infuriating because he still doesn’t intend to fix the problem. He doesn’t care. This is 100% politics. This is 100% optics. This is to get his lapdogs in the corporate media just to say oh, now the border is fine. ... It wasn’t a problem yesterday. But today it’s magically fixed.
“He got to see a very clear picture of what we’ve been dealing with on our border for many years, even before he ever came to office,” Gonzalez said in an interview after returning from the border. “And it’s not like he doesn’t know what’s going on already,” thanks to regular reports from lawmakers, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and others.
President Joe Biden spoke with Texas Gov. Greg Abbott on Sunday after Abbott handed him a letter about the border at El Paso International Airport. Rep. Veronica Escobar, D-El Paso , and Rep. Vicente Gonzalez Jr., D-McAllen accompanied Biden on his border visit.“Tell me where the results are of all these billions in taxpayers dollars that he’s put on the border? … It’s nothing but talking points for his next election,” he said of Abbott.
National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said the border tour informed conversations with Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador about ways to curb the flow of fentanyl and migrants. Cruz described the new apply-from-home app as a way to make it easier than ever for migrants to enter the U.S.
