Vice President Kamala Harris was NEVER "Border Czar"
Manage episode 431155936 series 3321253
Who knows how this started. But here are the facts.
In a March 2021 meeting with immigration officials, President Biden said he had asked Vice President Kamala Harris to "oversee diplomatic efforts to get Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras to stem the flow of migrants to the U.S. southern border."
Here is the crucial part:
Biden asked Harris to handle that "DIPLOMATIC" assignment by having those countries "ENFORCE RESTRICTION ON THEIR RESPECTIVE BORDERS."
This podcast includes the Biden sound bite from that meeting. If this remains a question, I can post the entire video. Here is what Biden did not ask Harris to do.
He did not ask her to be the Border Czar, manage immigration, work directly to develop an Immigration Policy with Congress, draft legislation, or rewrite immigration law. Harris hasn't addressed this, but it's only been a week, and it is a Talking Point" from the Trump campaign.
