Why GOP Loudly Heckled Biden Over His Immigration, Border Security ‘Plan’

Illegal immigration

• Biden lied repeatedly about taking action to stanch the flow of illegal immigration.
• During Tuesday's SOTU speech, rowdy Republicans yelled out, "Secure the border!" as Biden began talking about immigration. Biden basically removed the effective border controls in place when he entered office, and has since lied repeatedly about taking action to stanch the flow across our border. Biden has repeatedly said the border was "Secure" since 2021, even as the number of illegal entrants has soared. In the two years since Biden entered office, 5.6 million illegal entrants have slipped across the border, nearly 90% more than the 3 million during Donald Trump's entire four years. Rather than returning those who came here illegally and sending them back across the border to wait, as Trump successfully did, Biden has allowed many illegal arrivals to stay. The result already can be seen in surging crime, a flood of deadly fentanyl pills, and devastated communities both on the border and elsewhere, as Biden's Department of Homeland Security releases illegals and relocates them across America. As the Washington Examiner put it, "Biden left the burgeoning humanitarian and national security crisis at the feet of a Congress that has been unwilling to act for decades. Biden has shown no indication of plans to reinstate a slew of border policies that his predecessor, former President Donald Trump, had implemented in his tenure." Biden seems to be hoping that Congress fails, so he can put in place the plan he unveiled early in his first term: It would essentially give temporary green cards to millions of illegals, letting them work while their "Cases" are processed through a notoriously slow and inefficient immigration legal system.
