   cause-of-the-border-crisis-and-start-fixing-it/   
      
   President Joe Biden on Friday laid fresh blame for the border not-a-crisis   
   (he insists) at the feet of his predecessor. Does he not realize that his   
   nonstop lies on the issue undermine his credibility across the board?   
      
   In an NBC interview, Biden complained he inherited “one god-awful mess at   
   the border” from President Donald Trump, one made worse by “the failure to   
   have a real transition — cooperation from the last administration, like   
   every other administration has done.”   
      
   Specifically, he claims, “We didn’t find out they had fired a whole lot of   
   people, that they were understaffed considerably.” Huh? It’s near-   
   impossible to fire a career federal employee, while political appointees   
   always exit when the other party takes over the executive branch.   
      
   Anyway, Trump was adding to the Border Patrol and other enforcement   
   branches his whole time in office.   
      
   The reality: Biden inherited a package of successful policies . . . that   
   he immediately overturned. And Team Trump gave Team Biden a very public   
   warning that doing so would bring chaos, so the core “transition” problem   
   is on you, Joe.   
      
   “If the current policies in place are revoked as critics have promised   
   they would do . . . the 2,300 [migrant encounters] a day will become a   
   full-blown crisis overnight as we stand by and watch the numbers go even   
   higher, making last year’s crisis pale in comparison,” Mark Morgan, then   
   the acting Customs and Border Protection commissioner, said in December.   
   Plenty of others (including these pages) said much the same.   
      
   Biden ignored the advice — and we’re now seeing 6,000 encounters a day.   
      
   On his very first day in office, the new prez ordered a halt to new   
   border-wall construction, stronger protections for Dreamers (kids who   
   entered illegally) and a moratorium on deportations. He also vowed to   
   support a law giving a pathway to citizenship to all illegal immigrants.   
      
   Soon after, he ended Trump’s Remain in Mexico policy that kept migrants   
   there as they awaited immigration verdicts and quit applying the public-   
   health restriction (keeping migrants out for the duration of the pandemic)   
   to unaccompanied children and some families.   
      
   Those reversals, and his welcoming tone, sent the message that America’s   
   border was now open. As Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador has   
   said more than once, it created “expectations” that “caused Central   
   American migrants, and also from our country, wanting to cross the border   
   thinking that it is easier to do so.”   
      
   The result? The surge of migrants — more than 100,000 encounters in   
   February and more than 172,000 in March — is at a 20-year high, while more   
   unaccompanied minors than ever are in federal custody. Trump’s “kids in   
   cages” became “children in emergency facilities” — housed in poor   
   conditions not meant for minors and often held longer than the 72-hour   
   limit set by law.   
      
   “We’ve now got control,” Biden claimed to NBC. Bull: The numbers keep   
   climbing with no sign of a slowdown. And over 22,000 children remain in   
   the care of Health and Human Services, which takes over when they leave   
   immigration custody.   
      
   Biden’s pathetic blame game isn’t fooling anyone. A recent poll found that   
   only 15 percent believe Biden’s policies have played no role in the surge   
   that followed his White House win. And three times as many people think   
   border security is worse under Biden than it was under Trump.   
      
   It’s long past time for Biden to stop offering lame excuses instead of   
   action and actually fix the “god-awful mess” he created. The worse it   
   gets, the more the public will suspect he’s lying about every other   
   “challenge” facing the nation.
