The Border Patrol‘s union blasted President Joe Biden’s plan to visit the border, saying it’s coming too late to tackle the crisis and is only “to save himself.”
The White House confirmed Monday that Biden will travel to Brownsville, Texas, on Thursday to meet with Border Patrol agents, law enforcement, and local officials. In a statement to Fox News Digital, the National Border Patrol Council said the president, “after repeatedly stating there is no crisis, [his trip] is too little, too late.”
“But even if he were to put the proper policies in place at this late hour, he’d be doing it only to try to save his Presidency. And self-serving actions when time is winding down should always give Americans pause. Common sense dictates that as a lame duck, he’d revert to his open border policies if re-elected,” the union added.
Biden’s trip to the southern border comes after months of pleas from Democratic governors and mayors who have urged the federal government to provide more support as the immigrant surge has overwhelmed their cities and states.
The union said Biden’s visit, the president’s second trip to the border since taking office, is “solely to try to save himself”
