Neoliberal Joe Ends Border National Emergency

Joe is already off to a great start doubling down on all of the mistakes of Barack Obama’s second term that sent MAGA voters fleeing into Donald Trump’s arms.

Politico:

“President Joe Biden on Thursday formally terminated former President Donald Trump’s two-year-old declaration of a national emergency at the U.S.-Mexico border, calling the order by his predecessor “unwarranted.”

In a letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Vice President Kamala Harris, in her capacity as president of the Senate, Biden announced that government funds would no longer be diverted toward construction of a border wall and that he was “directing a careful review of all resources appropriated or redirected to that end.”

Biden’s proclamation represents his latest effort to undo some of the previous administration’s most controversial policies in his opening weeks in office, many of which were related to immigration and law enforcement at the southern border. …”

The immigration issue for Democrats is like the Iran issue for Republicans. Donald Trump had to end the Iran Deal because Barack Obama was for it. Similarly, Joe Biden has to end Donald Trump’s border policies.
