Psaki Says That “Not Many” Republicans “Are Putting Forward Solutions” Regarding the Issue On Immigration

That’s weird, it’s almost like the Biden Administration halted and/or removed immigration policies that the Trump Administration was upholding, then BAM, illegal immigration surged higher than it has in about 50 years.

You can’t honestly stand there and suggest to US citizens that Trump’s plan wasn’t working.

Reporter Shelby Talcott asked White House Press Secretary about addressing the root causes of the immigration we’re seeing, tangible actions that the administration is pursuing regarding its impact, and the VP’s plan to curb migration from places like Chile and Brazil.

Jen Psaki responded with: “I think the Vice President and the President have both conveyed this is going to be a long term effort. What the focus is on is addressing root causes like corruption, like economic circumstances that are impacting people and prompting them to want to come to the United States. So that requires working with governments both to put in place new migration proceedings and processes or limitations, sometimes at borders, we’ve seen some impacts of those over the course of the last several months. It also includes providing assistance and engaging closely with these leaders on what steps can be taken and the VP has been deeply engaged in this. But again, as it relates to Haiti, as it relates to our broken immigration system, the clear step that needs to be taken is an immigration bill needs to pass Congress. It’s a broken system, one that is ineffective,  one that is not moral in many cases at this point in time. It’s long overdue. There are a lot of Republicans out there giving speeches about how outraged they are about the situation at the border, not many who are putting forward solutions or steps that we can take. So, we’re a little tired of the speeches. We’d like to partner on solutions and working together to address this problem.”

This is incredibly disingenuous and dishonest of Psaki to even say.

A few ways that Republicans have been trying to resolve the illegal immigration crisis:

• The border wall
• More border patrol agents
• Strengthening the immigration policies
• Decreasing incentives

…just to name a few at a glance.
