President Joe Biden denied the existence of a crisis at the southern border, attributing the situation to Republicans.

In response, Republicans criticized Biden, holding his administration accountable for the surge in illegal crossings, with over 6.7 million illegal aliens reported since he took office.

“I have been pushing them – my Republican colleagues since they got in office. I think we have to make major changes to the border,” said Biden.

Sen. Ron Johnson said, “[Biden], the architect of the open border crisis, is also delusional if he believes Republicans have not been willing to secure it.”

“The truth is that he is the most dishonest, corrupt, and incompetent President in American history,” he continued.

Rep. Troy Nehls said, “Since President Biden took office, over 6.7 million illegal aliens have crossed our southern border. There IS a crisis at our southern border. And it’s all at the hands of the White House and the Democrat Party.”

Rep. Tom Emmer said, “Ridiculous. There IS a crisis at the border, and it’s of Joe Biden’s making. [House Republicans] passed the strongest border security legislation in decades nearly a year ago. He has ignored it.”

The influx has led to the release of many illegal immigrants into the U.S., straining the infrastructure of small towns and major cities, exemplified by New York City’s decision to house illegal immigrants in a high school, impacting students’ education.
