As we — and the world — watch a genuine crisis unfold and escalate at our southern border, there’s Joe Biden, caught in the middle of it all.
Progressives are losing their patience with President Biden on immigration, while Republicans say he’s causing the crisishttps://t.co/u7iKbsjJ6H

The Biden administration still won’t call the border crisis a “border crisis,” but rest assured that the president’s got his eyes on the situation.
In fact, he’s staring it down. At least according to Politico Playbook:

“Stares down.”
Well, that’s certainly one way to look at it …

Biden is facing criticism on the border situation from both sides, but he’s not really staring it down so much as just … staring.

Yeah, see, that’s the Joe Biden we know.
“Blank stares down” would also have been accurate.

“squints down”?

Next time, Politico, at least put a little effort into your spin. Like this:
@ltthompso he stared down the crisis, jaw slack with competent intensity
