McCarthy Grandstands At TX Border On “Biden Crisis”

The Washington Post reports:

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) on Monday blamed the president and his administration for problems at the border, calling it the “Biden border crisis.”

“The security of our nation and our border is first and foremost the responsibility of our president. I came down here because I heard of the crisis — it’s more than a crisis, this is human heartbreak,” McCarthy told reporters at the Mexican border in El Paso.

“It didn’t have to happen. This crisis is created by the presidential policies of this new administration. There’s no other way to claim it than a Biden border crisis,” he added.

It just 2 months President Biden has created a crisis at the border by:

• Placing a moratorium on deportations
• Promising a pathway to citizenship to 11 million illegal migrants
