    Biden Arrives at Border for First Time as President

    President Joe Biden arrived at the U.S.-Mexico border on Sunday, touching down in El Paso, Texas, following policy announcements and calls from Republicans as Texas Gov. Greg Abbott issued new criticism.
    Biden is due to spend a few hours in the Texas city, currently the biggest corridor for illegal crossings, and is expected to meet with border officials to discuss migration as well as the increased trafficking of fentanyl and other synthetic opioids, which are driving skyrocketing numbers of overdoses in the United States. Footage released on Sunday afternoon showed Biden exiting Air Force One after the plane arrived at the El Paso International Airport.
    Biden will visit the El Paso County Migrant Services Center and meet with nonprofits and religious groups that support migrants arriving to the United States. It is not clear whether Biden will talk to any migrants, according to officials.
    “The President is very much looking forward to seeing for himself first-hand what the border security situation looks like, particularly in El Paso. He’s very much also interested in getting to talk to Customs and Border Patrol agents on the ground who are actually involved in this mission to get their first-hand perspectives of it,” White House spokesman John Kirby told reporters on Jan. 6.
    Biden’s announcement on border security and his visit to the border are aimed in part at quelling the political noise and blunting the impact of upcoming investigations into immigration promised by House Republicans. But any enduring solution will require action by the sharply divided Congress, where multiple efforts to enact sweeping changes have failed in recent years.
    ‘Photo Op’

    But ahead of this visit to El Paso, Abbott, Texas’s Republican governor, accused officials of creating a manufactured image by removing illegal immigrants from camps in downtown El Paso, which sits across the border from Ciudad Juarez, one of the most violent cities in the world.
    “El Paso rushes to remove illegal immigrants and migrant camps that are crowding downtown before Biden arrives. Predictable,” Abbott wrote on Twitter Saturday. “Biden does not want America to see the chaos that he has caused on the border. This is just a photo op and a game of pretend.”

    El Paso clears downtown of expansive migrant camps ahead of Biden visit
    AUSTIN, Texas — City sidewalks that transformed into makeshift homeless camps as tens of thousands of illegal immigrants were released into downtown El Paso in recent months have been cleared out...

    After visiting El Paso, Biden will head to Mexico City, where he will meet with the heads of state of Canada and Mexico next week for a North American leaders summit. Reports say that immigration will be part of the agenda.
    Since Biden took office two years ago, the number of illegal immigrants crossing into the United States from Mexico has increased dramatically. Data from federal agencies show that there were more than 2.38 million stops or arrests during the fiscal year ending in September. Upon taking office, Biden issued a series of executive orders that rescinded many Trump-era policies, drawing condemnation from Republican lawmakers and Abbott.
    ‘Broken Promise’

    But in the past week, Biden announced new policies that would turn away immigrants who crossed the border illegally and who don’t seek asylum first in a country that they traveled through while en route to the United States. The Biden administration will now accept as many as 30,000 people from Nicaragua, Cuba, Haiti, and Venezuela per month.
    People who do not come to the United States under that program can be expelled back to Mexico via Title 42, which was allowed to remain for the time being after a Supreme Court decision several weeks ago. These latest moves drew condemnation from left-wing, pro-immigration groups.
    “The expansion of Title 42 to include Cubans, Haitians, and Nicaraguans is a broken promise,” said Dylan Corbett, executive director of Hope Border Institute in a statement. “Border communities will continue to work hard to pick up the broken pieces of our nation’s immigration system and show that our future lies not with expulsion and deportation, but with humanity and hope,” he added, without elaborating on what a solution might look like.
    From El Paso, Biden will continue south to Mexico City, where he and the leaders of Mexico and Canada will gather on Monday and Tuesday for a North American leaders summit. Immigration is among the items on the agenda.
    The Associated Press contributed to this report.

    El Paso Initiated Massive Migrant Cleanup To Hide Crisis During Biden Border Visit

    MONDAY, JAN 09, 2023 - 01:20 PM

    The two-year-long White House coverup of the ongoing illegal immigration crisis is perhaps one of the biggest political frauds of the decade. After Joe Biden recently dared to blame Republicans for the chaos at the southern border rather than his own reckless amnesty policies and his attempts to end Title 42, he embarked on his very first visit to the region since entering the Oval Office. His primary destination? El Paso.
    El Paso has become an epicenter of illegal immigration in the past few months, likely because it is a Democrat run border city which engages in sanctuary policies. The El Paso Mayor, Oscar Leeser, kept the door wide open for supposed amnesty seekers until the city ran out of money for welfare provisions and finally declared an emergency despite pressure from the White House not to.
    Biden has long ignored the state of affairs on the border, forcing conservative governors to bus thousands of migrants to Democrat cities like New York and Washington DC in order to make a point. Though the White House has pretended to be oblivious to the plight of border states, it is becoming clear that the administration has been well aware of the crisis for some time. In preparation for Biden's visit, El Paso has undergone a miraculous transformation from humanitarian disaster zone to squeaky clean and secure.

    Below, we can see before and after examples of how much can be accomplished to stop illegal immigration when Joe Biden's image is on the line - El Paso has become a completely different city in the span of two weeks:



    The city streets have been cleared of most migrants and their makeshift sidewalk beds.



    A border wall has been quickly built from cargo containers and barbed wire to deter migrant caravans. Local reports note that the new wall has been very effective in stopping the flow of illegals. Also, national guard and border patrol units have been deployed in a show of force.





    The expedited removal of illegal immigrants in preparation for Biden's visit showcases the reality that the border situation can be dealt with and that it would be far easier than the White House claims. The only rational conclusion that can be made at this stage is that Biden simply doesn't want to secure the border. Biden walked the existing wall with border agents before quickly jetting to Mexico City, and briefly met with Texas Governor Greg Abbott, who only received notice of Biden's plans a day before his arrival.
    Biden continues to claim that he has been working to solve the illegal immigration issue "from day one" and blames congress for refusing to "take action." In reality, illegal immigrant encounters plummeted after the enforcement of Title 42 in 2020, and then exploded again right after Biden took office. Biden's insistence on amnesty benefits and far easier citizenship for illegals has encouraged an endless rush of over 5 million migrants in the past two years. The sterilization of El Paso before his visit suggests that Biden has no intention of ever being honest about the terrible state of affairs and will maintain his open border policies regardless.
