TRUTH about Kamala Harris: She was, in fact, appointed by Biden to be America’s open borders czar

In case you have not noticed, the media is trying its hardest right now to obscure the fact that Joe Biden appointed Kamala Harris to be his regime’s “border czar” back in 2021, a position she failed at as evidenced by the tens of millions of illegal migrants who have flooded the country in the years since.

Their first reactionary argument was that Kamala was never in charge of the border, which is a lie. Now, they are admitting that Kamala was in charge of the border, but not in the way Republicans are claiming.

The New Yorker ran a piece claiming that Kamala’s job was to address the “root causes” of migration from the so-called Northern Triangle of Central America, which includes Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador.

“At no point in her tenure as Vice-President has she been in charge of managing the border,” declares Jonathan Blitzer about Kamala.

Elise Stefanik, the third-ranking Republican in the House, feels differently. Stefanik just announced plans to file an emergency resolution “condemning Kamala Harris’ role as Joe Biden’s ‘Border czar’ leading to the most catastrophic open border crisis in history.”

According to Stefanik and her colleagues, Kamala “came to be known colloquially as the Biden administration’s ‘border czar'” after Biden himself publicly announced that her job during the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) “pandemic” and beyond was to deal with the problems at America’s southern border.

Media rewrites history, claims Kamala was never Biden’s “border czar” in charge of migrant problem

As the powers that be (TPTB) position themselves to install Kamala Harris as the next puppet “president” of the United States, the corporate media is doing its part to rewrite history in Kamala’s favor.

All that talk about Kamala being Joe Biden’s “border czar” is out the window now that most Americans can clearly see that America’s southern border was left wide open so tens of millions of illegals could flood in, allowing Democrats to register many of them to vote for her.

The Associated Press (AP) reported on March 24, 2021, that Biden had “tapped” Kamala to lead his response to the “border challenges.” Around that time, Kamala quickly gained a reputation as Biden’s “border czar,” which was common knowledge.

Fast-forward to July of 2024 and TIME is reporting that Kamala “was never Biden’s ‘border czar.'” They apparently hope Americans will simply forget the past and follow the new narrative that Kamala is the best person to lead the United States.

A Child Tax Credit Expansion Is Stuck in the Senate—Here’s Why

Legislation to expand the Child Tax Credit is currently stalled in the Senate amid deep disagreements about its passage before the 2024 election.

The federal Child Tax Credit was first introduced in 1997 and, presently, allows parents with children aged 17 and under to write off up to $2,000 per child on their annual tax burden, of which $1,600 is refundable. The credit was temporarily expanded to $3,000 for the year 2021 and made fully refundable—leading to an estimated 44 percent reduction in the national child poverty rate. Proponents argue it is necessary to help low-income families afford food and clothing, among other things, for their children.

In January, negotiators in the Senate and House of Representatives announced a bipartisan deal to expand the credit for tax years 2023, 2024, and 2025, which passed the House by a vote of 357–70 later that month.

However, nearly six months later, no action has been taken on the bill in the Senate, with time running out for the 118th Congress to pass it.

Fact Check: Joe Biden Falsely Claims Migrant Crossings Lower than When Trump Left Office

During Wednesday night’s Oval Office address, President Joe Biden claimed, “Border Crossings are lower today than when the previous administration left office.” Official reports from U.S. Customs and Border Protection debunk this claim.

VERDICT: False — The Southwest Land Border Encounters Report from U.S. Customs and Border Protection clearly shows that migrant encounters each month of the Biden-Harris administration were higher than the month President Donald Trump left office.

“We are also securing our border. Border crossings are lower today than when the previous administration left office,” President Biden told the American people Wednesday evening.

Inside the plot to gaslight Americans about Kamala and re-write her story… and it starts with insisting she was never ‘Border Czar’ or the ‘most liberal’ Senator 

Vice President Kamala Harris and her team plan to refute that she was ever in charge of the migration crisis at the southern border.

It comes as Republicans are set to make Harris’ role as Joe Biden‘s ‘border czar’ one of their main points of attack in her battle for the White House with Donald Trump.

As Democratic strategists try to reinvent Harris’ record for the campaign a government transparency organization also deleted a webpage which had declared her the most liberal Democrat in the Senate .

Immigration and the border was Harris’ first big task as vice president and House Republicans on Thursday passed a resolution condemning her leadership on the issue.

In March 2021, President Joe Biden and his administration were already struggling with an escalating immigration crisis.

Migrants were pouring across the southern border, detention centers filled up with unaccompanied minors, and stories about ‘kids in cages’ began filtering into the public consciousness.

Jen Psaki, the White House press secretary at the time, repeatedly insisted that it was ‘not a crisis’. 

Republicans hammered Biden’s lack of enforcement, demanding that the president take the issue seriously and visit the border.

The White House felt it necessary to do something, some kind of sign to the public and the media that the president was tackling the problem.

To stave off criticism Team Biden offered up Vice President Kamala Harris as the solution.

The president and vice president stood together in the State Dining Room of the White House as Biden announced his intention to put Harris in charge of the migrant crisis.

Her chief goal, Biden stated, was to lead the diplomatic effort with Mexico and Central American countries to address the ‘root causes’ of migration.

‘I can think of nobody who — who is better qualified to do this,’ Biden said, citing Harris’ record as a California Attorney General.

It was not an unfamiliar task, Biden noted, recalling that as vice president, he had stepped up for President Barack Obama to work with leaders to stem migration on the southern border.

BEFORE AND AFTER: Watch the Media’s Total About Face on Kamala Harris as Biden’s ‘Border Czar’

The liberal news outlet Axios got caught red-handed today, trying to whitewash their own reporting on Kamala Harris as Joe Biden’s ‘border czar’ but they are far from alone.

The entire liberal media establishment is furiously scrubbing their own reportage on this issue to hide the truth from the American people.

The reason they’re doing this is so obvious. The border and illegal immigration has become a top issue for voters, so it’s a vulnerability for Harris.

NewsBusters has done an outstanding job of calling out the media on this:

In June of 2021, CNN senior national correspondent Ed Lavandera repeated the framing of Harris as border czar: “The Vice President is expected to in El Paso in about an hour and a half… and this will be her first visit to the U.S.-Mexico border region since she was appointed as the border czar by President Biden.”

Journalists were using this same language as recently as last week. During the ABC News Live coverage of the RNC, anchor Kanya Whitworth remarked that the speakers “were very critical of Kamala Harris, especially in her role as border czar.”

Politico’s whining about the border czar label dates back to when Harris was appointed border czar. In fresher gripes about Republicans from over the weekend, they reported: “Despite insisting that she not be made the face of the administration’s border policies, Harris was tasked with stemming migration from Central American countries. That prompted GOP attacks on her as ‘border czar,’ a narrative the White House did little to combat.” Along with: “During the Republican convention last week, many speakers labeled Harris as the “border czar,” since Biden appointed her to take the lead on working with Central America to deter migration at the southern border.”

Axios Accuses GOP of Fabricating Kamala Harris ‘Border Czar’ Title — 3 Years After Reporting Biden Made Her Border Czar!

Axios asserted that Republicans and the Trump campaign have falsely labeled Kamala Harris as Joe Biden’s “border czar” — despite the fact they themselves reported three years ago that Biden appointed her as his border czar.

Axios’ “immigration guru” Stef Kight wrote on Wednesday that, “The Trump campaign and Republicans have tagged Harris repeatedly with the ‘border czar’ title — which she never actually had.”

“In early 2021, President Biden enlisted Vice President Kamala Harris to help with a slice of the migration issue — a move that has turned into one of the newly-presumptive presidential nominee’s first campaign headaches,” wrote Kight.

“Confusion around the VP’s exact role, early media misfires and the rapidly changing regional migration crisis has made the issue a top target for the GOP trying to define their new opponent.”

The Great Immigration Experiment

You are living in an experiment. 

In March of this year, the foreign-born or immigrant population in the U.S.—both legal and illegal—hit record highs.

  • 51.6 million people in the U.S. are foreign-born
  • That is more than 15 percent of the population of this country—higher than at any time in our nation’s history.
  • Many consider these immigrants to be “workers,” but more than half of the immigrants who arrived since 2022 are not employed.
  • And of the approximately 2.5 million recent arrivals who are not employed only about 8 percent say they are actively looking for work.  
  • Immigrants make up over a fifth of residents in California, New Jersey, New York, Texas, and Florida. 
  • But less populous states are also seeing unprecedented immigration growth, with immigrant populations growing by 40 percent or more in Delaware, North and South Dakota, and West Virginia.

An experiment is a test to discover if something works. 

The numbers I’ve just described are a national experiment. And the American people are the guinea pigs.

We know this is an experiment—a test, for which we don’t know the outcome—because this level of immigration is new and different in at least three ways. 

First, the scale. The amount of immigration we are experiencing is unlike anything our country has experienced before. The U.S. is home to more international migrants than any other country in the world, and more than the next four countries on the list combined. And in fact, no country in modern history has experienced numbers like these.

Second, the speed. Nine million aliens entered the country in all of the 1990s; now 10 million have entered during just the first three years of the Biden administration, with 58 percent of that increase coming as illegal immigration. This growth is far greater than even our government predictions would expect. The federal census data from 2020 predicted that the foreign-born population of the U.S. would not hit 15 percent until 2033. Yet it is 2024 and we have already surpassed that prediction.

Third, this wave of immigration is unprecedented in its diversity. Previous waves of immigration tended to come from particular parts of the world, that made absorption easier. But now, immigrants come from every corner of the globe, speak every language and dialect, worship every kind of god, and reflect every culture that exists on the planet.

And all of this matters because immigration can only be sustained when it can be assimilated. This is not a new idea—our Founders discussed and agreed on this point. As Jefferson put it: immigrants “should distribute themselves sparsely among the natives for quicker amalgamation.”

More Than 10 Million Illegal Immigrants Under Joe Biden and the Real Employment Numbers Since He Took the White House

Far-left detractors are calling the Republican National Convention a Nazi convention because Republicans want to secure the border and deport illegal immigrants.

They also claim that Republicans are falsely demonizing illegal immigrants. However, protecting the border and enforcing the law is not a Nazi act; it is a normal function of government and part of the contract a government has with its citizenry.

As for demonization, the claims of illegal immigrants taking jobs and lowering wages are 100% true. To cover for the negative impact of immigration on jobs and wages, Biden lies about his job numbers, and Democrats and the mainstream press support his false claims.

As of June 2024,  approximately 6.8 million Americans were unemployed. In fiscal year 2023, the United States hit a record of 3.2 million encounters with illegal immigrants nationwide, including more than 2.4 million encounters at the Southwest border alone.

Over the past four fiscal years, from October 2019 to January 2024, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) reported more than 9.8 million border encounters across the country. This number represents approximately 2.93% of the current U.S. population, which is estimated to be around 334 million.

The Biden administration claims that unemployment is at the lowest level in fifty years. However, the unemployment rate is currently 4.1%, which is higher than during most of the Trump administration.

Three Time Deported Illegal Alien Charged in Arson Fire, Killed Mother and Two Children Sleeping In Home

An illegal immigrant, previously deported three times, has been charged with murdering a mom and her two sons after setting their mobile home ablaze with the family sleeping inside. 

A third son, whose name has not been released, fortunately escaped the violent criminal alien.

Jose Carmen Cardona will reportedly be arraigned on Monday on murder, attempted murder, and child endangerment charges.

It is currently unclear where the man illegally entered the country from, but per Fox, “A source with knowledge of the investigation tells Fox News Digital the suspect has been deported three times and returned to the U.S. anyway.”

Biden’s illegal immigrants are responsible for a growing number of murders and violent crimes against American women and children.

Notably, as The Gateway Pundit reported, Laken Riley, a talented young nursing student at the University of Georgia, was brutally murdered by Jose Antonio Ibarra, a criminal illegal alien, while going on a campus jog.

The Gateway Pundit also reported earlier this month that an illegal alien from El Salvador was charged with brutally raping and murdering Rachel Morin, a mother-of-five, on a Maryland hiking trail last year.
