Biden campaigned on reversing each and every one of Trump’s border policies. And he has...

You can't even get three sentences into your rambling before lying.

President Biden kept Title 42 until May 11, 2023, nearly a year and a half after taking office. While Title 42 was in effect from March 2020 to May 2023, the Border Patrol carried out 2.8 million expulsions.

When the pandemic measure was lifted his administration proposed a new stricter Circumvention of Lawful Pathways rule prompting outcry from immigrant advocates that the president’s border posture was little different than Trump’s. That new rule would presume that migrants are ineligible for asylum if they entered the country unlawfully and would allow rapid deportation of anyone who had failed to request protection from another country while in route to the United States or who did not notify border authorities through a mobile app of their plans to seek asylum.

Most of the migrants encountered at and between ports of entry since Biden took office -- which have increased substantially thanks to the pent-up demand created by the pandemic -- are in active removal proceedings in immigration court.

As albaby1 tirelessly explained to you, border policy is outdated. Capacity constraints have overwhelmed border processing facilities and the only way the immigration crisis gets resolved is through congressional legislation and funding.

Yet Speaker Johnson -- who days ago powwowed with Orange Jesus -- said he will not bring a Senate bill to the floor and does not want to consider immigration reform until a new administration is in office. Trump cultists like senator Lindsey Graham and Trump apologists like senator Mitch McConnell have told Johnson he won't get a better deal than he'll get right now but Johnson is afraid of both Trump and the far right wackadoodles who have threatened to vacate the chair if Johnson considers anything but HR 2.

In short, republicans are blocking immigration reform, some because they refuse to compromise, others because they don't want to give president Biden a 'win,' and still others because they're afraid of Trump.
