The United States is currently dealing with an ongoing crisis down at our Southern Border. In the last week we've seen a massive influx of Haitian migrants come to the border town of Del Rio, Texas and set up encampments. The migrants have fled Haiti in large part due to the 7.2 magnitude earthquake that rocked the country and left 650,000 in need of emergency humanitarian assistance. There is reported to be upwards as much as 12,000 Haitians that originally set up camp. The danger level for these migrants is high having limited if not zero access to water and food as well as battling extreme heat. These conditions in part prompted the Biden Administration's border patrol agents and U.S. authorities to move in to start expelling the migrants in what is being called one of the largest and fastest migrant or refugee expulsions in America's history.
Texas Governor Abbott visited Del Rio, Texas and spoke out against the Biden Administration for allowing this influx to happen in the first place. Abbott pointed to the failed enforcement of immigration laws at the hands of the Biden Administration. The governor went on to call the Biden Administration, "a manmade disaster of inhumanity of epic proportions."
Do you blame the current crisis happening on our Southern Border in the town of Del Rio, Texas on the Biden Administration or was it due to uncontrollable events such as the Haiti earthquake that occurred late last month? Could President Biden have prevented this situation from happening down in Del Rio, Texas? How so? Share your thoughts in the comments or own our social media pages!
