Joe Biden is requiring all foreign travelers to show proof of vaccination before entering the U.S. … unless they walk across the border illegally.
Press Secretary Jen Psaki was asked about this discrepancy. She had no answer. Instead, she insisted, “[illegal immigrants] are not intending to stay here for a lengthy period of time. It’s not the same thing.”
Ummm…What? So she thinks illegal immigrants plan to stay in the country for a shorter period of time than the average tourist? Fox News’ Bill Melugin, who has been reporting from Del Rio, called her out:
If anyone in the White House actually came down here and spoke to some migrants, they would realize these people have zero intention of leaving the US & every intention of trying to stay permanently. You don’t travel that far to spend a day or two in Del Rio & then leave. https://t.co/4W60UcI6W5

She also suggested the policy was to “prevent a scenario where large numbers of people are gathering posing a threat to the community and also to the migrants themselves.”
Has she not seen the thousands at the refugee camp in Del Rio? That’s the very definition of a large group of people. And organizations operating in Del Rio are warning about COVID’s spread.
That’s a stunning level of ignorance from the Biden administration. At least even Joe Biden is now admitting the border is not “under control.” If only he’d finally do something about it.
