Biden, Harris and Mayorkas have deliberately created a national
emergency of unfettered invasion of unwanted lazy shitbags and
baby-popping whores.

House Speaker Mike Johnson says President Biden’s stance is ‘simply
untrue’

President Biden claimed Tuesday "I've done all I can do" to secure the
U.S. border, as Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is facing
an impeachment push by House Republicans over his perceived failure to
handle the immigration crisis.

Biden made the comment while speaking to reporters as he was leaving the
White House, saying "I've done all I can do, just give me the power."

"I asked them the very day I got into office," Biden continued. "Give me
the Border Patrol. Give me the judges. Give me the people who can stop
this."

The Biden administration has said it has been expanding "lawful
pathways" for migrants while increasing consequences for illegal entry
into the U.S. since the ending of Title 42 expulsions in May last year.
It has pointed to more than 500,000 removals since May, as well as
increased cooperation with Mexico to crack down on human smugglers and
fentanyl trafficking.

The administration also says it has been increasing removal flights -- including directly to Venezuela. However, it has stressed that it needs
more funding and comprehensive immigration reform to fix what it says is
a "broken" system.

House Speaker Mike Johnson shared a video on X of Biden making the
remark and said Biden’s comments were "simply untrue" and "He’s either
lying or misinformed."

"Here are just a few of the authorities at his disposal – if only he
would use them: Presidential Authority to Restrict Entry 212(f),
Expedited Removal 235(b)(1), Discretionary Detention Authority 236(a), Mandatory Detention 236(c). No more excuses," Johnson added.

The White House requested $14 billion in funding for the border as part
of its supplemental funding request to Congress, which also includes aid
to Ukraine and Israel. The request is being negotiated in Congress after Republicans demanded more limits on asylum and migrant releases into the interior.

Biden has urged Congress to pass the deal, but House Republicans and
some conservatives in the Senate have said the reported proposals do not
go far enough.

TEXAS GOV. ABBOTT CLAIMS BIDEN IS IN VIOLATION OF FEDERAL LAW AS BORDER
SURGE CONTINUES

National Border Patrol Council President Brandon Judd, when asked on
"The Faulkner Focus" Tuesday if Biden was doing everything he could,
argued "absolutely not."

"In fact, I’m very sick of hearing all of his rhetoric. He doesn’t give evidence," Judd said. "The evidence is incontrovertible [about] what is
going on right now. Secretary Mayorkas is complicit in allowing these individuals to violate our laws. Congress would be derelict if they did
not hold him accountable.

"When you look at the total number of people that cross our borders
illegally and have been released into the United States, the story that
doesn’t get told enough is what happens to those people that get
released into the United States," Judd added. "They are never leaving,
ICE doesn’t go after them, ICE doesn’t deport them."

Migrant numbers officially hit 302,000 in December, a new record, after
2.4 million encounters in FY23. Republicans have said that large
releases into the interior and a rolling back of Trump-era policies have
fueled the crisis and have accused Mayorkas of a "dereliction of duty"
in his handling of it.

I've done all I can, starting with my Day 1 in office, rescinding all of
Trumps border policies, that at least had stemmed the tide of
infiltration. Now just "give him the power", which means more billions
in tax payer money, and he can then thwart border laws, and claim later,
they just never gave him enough power. I'd have rather he used the
$137Bill he gave out in loan foregiveness on the border. He's had
access to money all along.
