White House press secretary Jen Psaki was a Very Special Guest on “CBS Mornings” today.
Understandably, the hot topic of “whip-wielding, horseback-riding” Border Patrol agents attacking Haitian migrants came up in conversation, and understandably, Psaki had some thoughts about it:
.@PressSec tells @CBSMornings that President Biden thought images of whip-wielding, horseback-riding patrol agents among Haitian migrants in Texas were “horrific and horrible.” “That's not who the Biden and Harris administration is,” Psaki says. pic.twitter.com/Rgt1k5uvLG

“This is not who we are.” Watch:
WH Press Sec. Jen Psaki says Biden found viral videos of Border Patrol being aggressive with Haitian migrants “horrific.”

For the record, here’s what DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said about it yesterday:

That changed somewhat overnight:
DHS Sec. Mayorkas on troubling viral videos of Border Patrol being aggressive with Haitian migrants:
"One cannot weaponize a horse to aggressively attack a child. That is unacceptable. That is not what our policies and our training require … We will not tolerate mistreatment." pic.twitter.com/fpkNrDv90w

Because that’s not who the Biden-Harris administration is, right, Mr. Secretary?

Failing is right. The Biden-Harris administration failed to take the situation at the border seriously. The Biden-Harris administration failed to even address the situation at the border. And now, because of that, Border Patrol agents on horseback are trying to stave off the influx of unvetted — and most likely unvaccinated — migrants.
Because this is, in fact, who the Biden-Harris administration is.
The Biden administration is shocked at what the Biden administration is doing 🤣

The Biden Administration is shocked by what the Biden Administration is doing.
No one tell the Biden Administration that the Biden Administration gave Putin a multi-billion dollar pipeline, lost Afghanistan, and increased prices for the poorest Americans. https://t.co/63GMlTSRKN

They can’t pin this one on Republicans. They can’t pin any of it on Republicans.
Stop spreading misinformation.

Tell the truth, Jen. For once in your life. Because we see through your — and the Biden-Harris administration’s — BS.
