Joe Biden promised to ‘absorb’ 2 million asylum seekers ‘in a heartbeat’ in 2019 - he now faces an immigration crisis

[NorthernHawkeye]

CNN —
During his 2020 presidential campaign, Joe Biden promised a stark departure from the immigration policies of the Trump administration.

He pledged a 100-day moratorium on deportations after taking office. He promised to protect sanctuary cities from federal law enforcement agencies. And he harshly criticized the Trump administration’s treatment of undocumented immigrants at the southern border, asserting that America had the capacity to “absorb people” while calling on asylum seekers to “surge” to the border

“We could afford to take in a heartbeat another two million,” Biden said at one event in August 2019. “The idea that a country of 330 million people cannot absorb people who are in desperate need and who are justifiably fleeing oppression is absolutely bizarre.”

Do you disregard or simply ignore attempts to move legislation through congress?

Is this sport to you?

Is anyone else sick of these right-wing dumb asses bitch about immigration?

We have a Congress. The purpose of that body is to produce laws and programs to benefit the public.
The Senate produced a bipartisan immigration proposal that had favorable views in the House but was not allowed to come to the floor due to the House Speaker's fiefdom to the ex-president since immigration is a weapon for his campaign.

If a narrative falls in a conservative's forest and it doesn't match their bias, does it really make a sound?

How many Democrats helped craft HR2?

They don't enforce the existing laws.

And Border enforce says they don’t have the man power, asylum judges, lawyers, new technology upgrades , etc etc. To adequately enforce those laws.

The dems don't even honor ICE detainers on those arrested.

No one takes your side seriously.

Lets be honest, the senate bill was purely out of panic by the democrats that immigration will taken Biden down. The republicans played politics and said, no chance, own your shit Joe. Own the previous three years.

Cool. So explain his dozens of Executive orders immediately after getting into the WH, to loosen security at the border and promote more illegals showing up…to the detriment of the public.

It's a bipartisan bill.

Nobody takes Republicans seriously either. That’s why the majority are Independents like me.

The Republican House is incapable of doing anything. This is not a stab at humor. They do not have the academic or intellectual talent or capacity to formulate complex legislation. McCarthy was not brilliant, but he was their last hope. What's remaining is a pathetic mess with a complete fool leading a gaggle.

It's up to the Democratic leadership's genuine concern for this country's well-being to keep the lower chamber focused until the elections returns the government back to the party of responsibility.

And pray tell us how congress enforces laws.

The same party that created this disaster.

Just as sick as I am of you idiot libs on just about everything you do or say.

It didn't take legislation to create this crisis, it took executive action by Biden in the first days of his presidency. He openly bragged about undoing trump policies and the flood gates immediately burst open. Ot could be fixed by executive action too. The nonsense bill was an obvious non starter and entirely meant to allow for gas lighting/deflection of blame by the left. Reasonable people aren't buying it. Not even a little bit.
