Texas Gov. Greg Abbott was looking for someone to blame for the immigration crisis that is building along our southern border.
So he found one. You’re it, President Biden.
Abbott came to Dallas today to blame Biden for the influx of unaccompanied children who are entering the state. He said the president’s immigration policies are “enticing” Latin Americans to enter the United States illegally.
Oh, but wait. President Biden has said categorically — in plain English — that those people shouldn’t come here. “Don’t come,” Biden told ABC News this week, adding that critics are blasting him because he’s a “good guy” who will treat immigrants more humanely than Donald Trump ever did.
As the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports: “I can say quite clearly, don’t come over,” Biden said, noting that the administration is setting up a process for applying for asylum in place. “So don’t leave your town, or city or community.”
When it comes to children crossing he border, Biden said most are 16 and 17. He advocated for trying to connect the minors with an adult contact in the U.S.
None of that stops Gov. Abbott from levying heavy criticism on President Biden.
Yes, the child immigration problem has worsened. I get it. What is lost on me is what precisely the Biden administration is doing to lure these children into the country.
My request for Gov. Abbott would be to cool down the anti-Biden rhetoric and spend more of his waking energy on coming up with solutions he can implement along with whatever the feds intend to do.
And please, governor, spare me the “open borders” canard.
Pretty simple where blame goes on this. Yes, Biden said don’t come here, AFTER he let it be know all would be welcomed. You don’t send the message you won’t be sent back and the. Say don’t come. Com ‘on man!!!
