Stephen Miller might be the most hated person in the Trump administration; Susan Rice, who now occupies his old office, told the New York Times she’d decorated it with Haitian art and cleansed it by burning sage. Miller was watching President Biden’s press conference Thursday, though, and said Biden told a “monstrous lie” when the subject turned to unaccompanied minors arriving at the southern border.
.@POTUS replied with a monstrous lie to the question from @CeciliaVega on unaccompanied minors. Vega pointed out that families abroad were separating their own children due to Biden’s supremely reckless pledge to resettle in the U.S. any minor illegally crossing the border. (1/7)

Biden replied w/an asinine false choice. He explained that he was resettling minors in the US in lieu of “let[ting] them starve to death and stay on the other side” (Mexico) which he accused Trump of doing. This is spectacularly false & a grave smear on our border agents. (2/7)

First off, illegal crossers returned to Mexico are transferred to migration authorities not the desert. But unaccompanied minors were returned to their *home countries* to be reunited with their own families. They were not returned to Mexico unless Mexico was their home. (3/7)

This humane policy from President Trump brought unaccompanied minor numbers to record lows. Biden’s disastrous decision to exempt minors from Title 42, and to stop the at-home reunification process in favor of domestic resettlement, single-handedly created this crisis. (4/7)

Worse still, Biden made this decision with no planning, no preparation, no extra facilities, and no thought as to the tragic human consequences on both sides of the border. He is straining U.S. communities while keeping young illegal migrants from their families back home. (5/7)

The youth migrant crisis will only end when Biden does a full 180 & switches from a resettlement policy to a repatriation policy. As long as he admits every minor crossing illegally they will keep getting smuggled in record numbers—and the needless suffering will continue. (6/7)

And what is Biden doing? He keeps reopening “migrant overflow facilities” and, against the advice of the CDC, filling them to 100 percent capacity (or more) with unaccompanied minors. As Twitchy reported Wednesday, the Department of Health and Human Services has reached out to the Pentagon to see if two military bases in Texas can house those unaccompanied minors that won’t fit in those converted shipping containers.
Finally, Biden’s answer to @kwelkernbc on revoking Trump’s proven border tools defies human logic. If you stop removing illegal immigrants, and instead release them en masse, then of course they will come in ever-larger numbers. This shouldn’t be that hard to understand (7/7).
