To the rescue! WaPo firefighter rides in to set the record straight once and for all about Joe Biden's 'kids in cages'

This afternoon, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki attempted to draw a distinction between “kids in cages” under Donald Trump and “kids in cages” under Joe Biden. Basically, her point was that it “is not kids being kept in cages” when Joe Biden does it.

Psaki failed to make a compelling argument, but at least she’s in good company:

It’s not? Could’ve fooled us!

No! It’s totally different because reasons:

Many children arrive at the border as unaccompanied minors, leading to difficult decisions about what to do with them. Many are seeking to be united with family members already in the United States. But some aren’t, and they can’t be released without an adult sponsor taking custody. Releasing them to the wrong person leads to all kinds of problems; in 2014, for instance, there was an uproar after traffickers took some teens who were released to go work on an egg farm.

When conservatives raised concerns about trafficking while liberals decried CBP and ICE ripping children away from their parents, their concerns were dismissed. Now it’s OK to worry about trafficking again.

More:

The Biden administration has many problems to deal with on the border, for a variety of reasons. Part of the reason for the current surge in both families and unaccompanied minors arriving without authorization appears to be its softer approach to enforcement, which gives border-crossers more hope that they’ll be allowed into the country.

These issues will surely test the president in the months and years to come. But suggesting that this is at all akin to what Trump did with children on the border — or that the media is soft-pedaling what the Biden administration is doing — just doesn’t add up.

The Biden administration has many problems to deal with! These issues will surely test the president!

Let’s all remember who the real victim is here: Joe Biden and his administration.

Now don’t you dare suggest that the media are being soft on the president.
