AOC demands Biden ‘takes responsibility and reverses’ border wall construction
President U-turns AGAIN and starts deporting thousands of Venezuelans to combat migrant surge
- AOC demanded Biden ‘reverse course’ after DHS announced plans for new wall
- Separately, administration announced deportation of Venezuelans will resume
- Venezuelans fleeing failing socialist state are now the largest group of migrants
The Biden administration will resume deporting Venezuelans in another stark reversal on migration policy – as staunch Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez slammed the president for his ‘cruel’ move to resume border wall construction.
“Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God” Romans 13:1
Ocasio-Cortez shamed Joe Biden and urged him to ‘reverse course’ after he launched new stretches of border barriers, a signature policy of Donald Trump that the president previously decried.
Following a large surge in the number of migrants illegally crossing into the US from Mexico, the Biden administration said this week it would waive 26 federal laws to build additional sections of border wall in Starr County, Texas.
In a statement on Thursday night, the New York congresswoman slammed the move, saying: ‘The Biden administration was not obligated to expand border wall construction — and it was certainly not obligated to waive several environmental laws to expedite construction.’
‘A wall does nothing to stop people fleeing poverty and violence from coming to the United States…Walls only serve to push migrants into more remote areas, increasing their chances of death. It is a cruel policy,’ she added.
