Mayorkas Tries to Rewrite History on Biden’s Border Disaster

The man who oversaw the most catastrophic border crisis in American history now wants to rewrite the past and make the public believe he was just following orders.

In an interview with Politico on Tuesday, former Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas finally acknowledged that perhaps things got a tad out of control at the border on his watch.

He suggested that the administration should have ramped up border security just a tiny bit sooner.

If you recall, this is the same man who time and again insisted that the border was entirely “secure” despite witnessing the most porous, chaotic border in American history. He even did so during his testimony in Congress when he insisted that the unheard-of level of border crossings was really no issue at all.

When Politico asked Mayorkas if he could have done something sooner, he made it seem like he may have been for tighter border security than President Joe Biden.

“There were areas of disagreement within immigration policy … but I voiced my views,” he said in the most weaselly way possible. Then he said that his administration made “sensible” reforms in 2024 that “proved successful.”
