Julie Pace, a reporter with the Associated Press, said in an interview at the start of the week that the Biden administration has no plan in place to deal with President Joe Bidens border crisis and that migrants are reading his policies as an open invitation to come to the U.S.
When asked by host Chris Wallace if Biden had a plan to get his border crisis under control, Pace responded, Well, they dont have a plan at the moment to get this under control.
APs Pace: Biden Has No Border Plan Migrants Think They Have An Open Invitation
Associated Press Washington Bureau chief Julie Pace argued on this weeks broadcast of Fox News Sunday that President Joe Biden did not have a plan for the surge underway on the U.S.-Mexico border.
Based on that, Pace said migrants think they have an open invitation.
Anchor Chris Wallace said, The Department of Homeland Security put out a report this week, it wasnt put out to the public, but it was leaked that they are now projecting 117,000 unaccompanied minors that are going to cross the border this year. Way over what we thought was a very serious surge in 2019. Is that sustainable for the Biden White House to say, well, its not a crisis, its a challenge, we are managing it, and more importantly, do they really have a plan to get this under control?
