Let's get this out of the way, right up front. Joe Biden, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, and Democat lawmakers have been flat-out lying to the American people about the Biden Border Crisis for three years.
No, the border isn't "secure." Yes, the border is virtually wide open. And, no, Joe Biden and his disastrous administration not only haven't done a damn thing to stop the never-ending surge; they haven't had — and still don't have—any intention of doing so.
On Friday, Biden took the lying to a whole new level of crazy — make that a bizarre level of lying — ostensibly telling a White House gathering of mayors that he wants to "solve the problem."
Laughably, it was what Biden said about Republican lawmakers, who continue the outcry over his intentionally caused crisis, that stole his silly show. (Emphasis, mine.)
I want to talk about another top issue: The border. I love how [when my TV is] turned on and [I see that] “Biden is for free and open border, tear down [the wall], everybody come, no restrictions.” It used to be a bipartisan issue in this country. It should be one again.
Please. 2016 presidential candidate Joe Biden pledged, throughout his basement campaign, to all but install northbound-only people movers along the southern border, and welcome, with open arms, all who wanted to make the trek.
In Friday's speech, Biden then went with one of his infamous "I've been clear from the beginning" lies.
I’ve been clear from the very beginning: The [immigration] system is broken. My first day in office, I sent Congress a comprehensive plan on immigration reform [and amnesty]. My friends on the other side have done nothing with it. Over and over, I’ve asked for resources to step up action with the border.
In October, I asked Congress for funding that would add … 22,000 additional border agents and officers, hundreds of new immigration judges to make the judgments on the spot, new detection equipment to stop fentanyl from coming into the country. And, by the way, I’ve worked with China and Mexico to slow the flow of fentanyl in the United States. As I speak, it is way down.
Perhaps there are a few half-truths, above, but Biden's illogical insistence that his border crisis is an "all or nothing" proposition is downright insulting.
Memo to Joe: Stop the out-of-control, illegal-alien assault on this country — NOW — and then attempt to negotiate a deal with Republican lawmakers to fix the "broken" system.

How about enforcing existing federal immigration law in the meantime, Joe?
And don't you just love it when Biden says "So let me be clear"?
So let me be clear. My team has been at the table for weeks now with a bipartisan group of senators to negotiate a deal including [the] border because I believe we need significant policy changes, including changes in our asylum system to ensure that we have the [legal] authorities we need to control the border, and I’m ready to act … I think next week we’re gonna be able to work out something, at least in the Senate, and I’m hopeful it is going to be the bipartisan package the Senate is going to pass, God willing.
Now the question is for the [House] Speaker and House Republicans: Are they ready to act as well? They have to choose whether they want to solve a problem or keep weaponizing issues to score political points against the president.
I’m ready to solve the problem. I really am. Massive changes. I mean it sincerely.
Biden means nothing of the kind.
The Bottom Line
Hypothetically speaking — only to make the salient point — if reputable polling organizations set up shop along the southern border, and polled illegal aliens, as they strolled into the country, about their political preferences, and found that a majority would vote Republican if they became American citizens, the Democrat Party, with arms securely locked, would form a human chain stretching from the Pacific Ocean to the Gulf of Mexico in a desperate effort to keep them the hell out of the country.
The Democrat Party knows that. We know it. And they know we know they know it.
