Joe Biden Was Warned His Immigration Policies Would Cause Chaos at the Southern Border – He Did it Anyway

 A recently uncovered memo reveals that President Joe Biden was warned about potential chaos resulting from his immigration policies when he was campaigning in 2020. Despite these warnings, Biden proceeded with these policies, leading to significant issues at the southern border.

• Warnings Ignored: During his campaign against Donald Trump, Biden’s advisers cautioned him that his immigration stance could result in chaos at the border. They predicted that a potential surge in migrants could overwhelm processing capacities and create a humanitarian crisis.

• Advice for Mitigation: The memo suggested steps to handle the expected influx, such as rejecting immigration claims more easily, holding asylum seekers in “reception centers” until their cases were reviewed, and transferring them to other countries. Biden chose to disregard this advice.

• Continued Issues After Taking Office: Once in office, Biden's policy advisers again urged stronger measures to control border crossings and enhance enforcement, yet the underlying issues remained unresolved.

• Contrast with Trump Administration: A recent report from Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shows a significant decrease in border encounters, with a noted 95% drop in daily crossings compared to the Biden era. Under Trump’s leadership, border security measures led to record lows in encounters and no catch-and-release for several months. The current Department of Homeland Security Secretary highlighted these achievements as a result of Trump's policies.

• Democratic Response: The memo suggests that despite previous warnings and current successes in border security, the Democratic Party may not have learned from these experiences.

Biden’s administration received clear warnings about the potential consequences of its immigration policies but chose to ignore them. The repercussions of this decision have manifested in significant challenges at the southern border. The findings underscore a stark contrast with the previous administration’s success in border security, raising questions about the future direction of immigration policy and whether the lessons from this situation will be recognized by Democrats.
