Joe Biden Puts Kamala Harris in Charge of Migrant Crisis: ‘I Can Think of Nobody Who Is Better Qualified’

by CHARLIE SPIERING 24 Mar 2021

President Joe Biden announced Wednesday his plan to put Vice President Kamala Harris in charge of the migrant crisis on the southern border.

”I can think of nobody who is better qualified to do this,” Biden said after making the announcement at the White House.

Biden shifted the responsibility for the crisis to his vice president as it threatens to overshadow his achievements in fighting the coronavirus and his massive $1.9 trillion spending package. He delegated full power to her team.

“When she speaks, she speaks for me,” Biden said. “Doesn’t have to check with me. She knows what she’s doing and I hope we can move this along.”

Biden acknowledged he had given Harris a “tough job” but noted she was “smiling” as he turned the event over to her.

“Thank you, Mr. President, and for having the confidence in me,” Harris said. “There’s no question this is a challenging situation.”

Harris said she would focus on addressing the “root causes” of the migration crisis with Central American countries and support “shared prosperity in the region.”

The Biden administration has struggled with the crisis, as the number of families with children and unattended minors coming to the southern border has skyrocketed since Inauguration Day.

Harris said she would also work with members of Congress to address the problem.

“Needless to say the work will not be easy but it is important work,” Harris said.

Biden and his Department of Homeland Security officials have struggled with mixed messaging on the issue, assuring Americas that the border is closed, but repeating that children and unaccompanied minors detained at the border will be released into the United States.

Things have spun out of control and Kamala Harris should give no confidence that the situation will be any better. We have been invaded for years and are being invaded now by a Trojan Horse army of children, with related and unrelated adults tagging along.

The numbers of children are a threat to our country because of their needs and demands to be made to provide for them. Our small towns and communities cannot bear the costs.

The governments and many parents of the children are missing but they all are expecting a reward at the expense of the young ones. The cartel business is booming. Human smuggling and sex trafficking are hurting the innocent.

Joe Biden can't "think".

Biden and Harris need to be impeached. Their phone records need to be confiscated. They are endangering our lives every moment they are in office.

They are destroying our country in less than 90 days and putting our health, our safety, and security at risk.

I do not want these illegal aliens or their UACs housed on our military bases or ANYWHERE on our soil, let alone released into our communities.

They are foreign citizens, they are minors, they must be handed over to their Embassy to transport back home.

That puts our military lives in danger of catching infectious Covid, TB, Hepatitis, skin rashes, measles, scabies, lice and a host of respiratory problems. That is NOT their duty to change diapers and house and feed criminal trespassing, disease infected, illegal aliens who are not our citizens.

This compromises the readiness of our military.

Send them home.

She encouraged a 7000 person caravan to "come on up" 2018 . She gave nasty speeches saying Trump was putting babies in cages. Looks like she is now the one putting those babies in cages. But since she wasn't raised here, she seems to have different values. In my opinion. This article expands on a few thing.

After Pledging to Decriminalize Illegal Border Crossings, Harris Will Lead Border Crisis Response
VP encouraged 7,000-strong migrant caravan in 2018, compared ICE to KKK

Vice President Kamala Harris, who less than a year ago expressed support for decriminalizing illegal border crossings, will spearhead the White House's response to the crisis at the southern border.

President Joe Biden said Wednesday that he can "think of nobody who is better qualified" to handle the situation than Harris, who he said "speaks for me." The decision comes as the White House struggles to deal with a historic surge in border apprehensions. U.S. Border Patrol agents are currently detaining more than 600 unaccompanied migrant children per day, far more than the 370 daily apprehensions seen during the 2019 migrant surge.

While top administration officials claim that Harris's first goal will be to quell the surge of illegal migrants, the Democrat has a history of dismissing illegal immigration and the federal government's role in stopping it. As a presidential candidate last summer, Harris said she backed decriminalizing illegal border crossings and would "not make it a crime" to illegally cross the border if she was elected.

Harris's lax approach to border enforcement preceded her run for president—in 2018, Harris encouraged a caravan of more than 7,000 migrants who were seeking to enter the country illegally. The then-California senator said "we are welcoming" as a nation. The comments came just days after migrants violently stormed the Guatemala-Mexico border chanting "we are going to the United States" and "nobody is going to stop us." It also came as former Department of Homeland Security secretary Kirstjen Nielsen warned that the caravan could be exploited by "transnational criminal organizations"—a dynamic that both Republicans and Democrats say is at play during the current crisis.

Harris also faced criticism as a senator for her 2018 line of questioning toward then-acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement director Ronald Vitiello. The Democrat compared the "perception" of ICE to the Ku Klux Klan, implying that the agency uses "fear and force" to carry out immigration laws. Former Biden campaign senior adviser and current Harris chief spokeswoman Symone Sanders defended the questioning, saying that she feels as though "ICE currently operates with surgical precision in terms of picking out and hunting down folks … based upon the color of their skin."

Harris campaigned against the Trump administration's immigration policies, which she said consisted of "putting babies in cages at the border in the name of security." Harris also accused the U.S. government of committing "human rights abuses." Thousands of migrant children, however, are now being held by the Biden administration in holding facilities intended for adults.

While the Biden administration has resisted categorizing the current border surge as a "crisis," Harris on Wednesday said it was a "huge problem" that is "not going to be solved overnight."
