Cruz criticizes Biden for ‘hiding’ during border crisis.

Sen. Ted Cruz Blasts President Biden for Ignoring the Humanitarian Crisis at the Southern Border

Illegal Immigration Reaches an All-Time High

Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) did not mince words when he criticized President Joe Biden for “hiding in the basement” and ignoring the “humanitarian crisis” at the southern border. Alongside fellow Republicans at a press event in Brownsville, Texas, Cruz revealed that there are currently over 22,000 illegal immigrants across the river, and the situation is only getting worse.

“We already have the worst illegal immigration in the history of our country, and in just a few hours, it’s getting worse,” he said. “Joe Biden, this is your fault.”

The Expiration of Title 42

Cruz’s remarks came just hours before the expiration of Title 42, a policy put in place under former President Donald Trump that blocked migrants from crossing the U.S.-Mexico border to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Border officials used Title 42 to reject migrant entry over 2.8 million times. With the expiration of Title 42, many officials fear a mass surge of immigrants will soon flood across the border.

“You can see the lights. You can see people camping out. If you look, you can see them,” Cruz said, pointing across the river behind him. “They are waiting for Title 42 to expire, and then the invasion that we are going to see is going to be massive.”

The Dangers of Crossing the Border

Crossing the border is extremely dangerous and can be fatal, according to Cruz. He chided Biden for the deaths of those who are killed crossing illegally, the women who are sexually abused while crossing illegally, and the children who are brutalized crossing illegally.

“Come down here, President Biden. Stop hiding in the basement. Stop pretending this misery is not your fault. Stop it,” he said. “This is not humane. This is not compassionate. This is cruel.”

Conclusion

Senator Ted Cruz’s passionate plea for President Biden to take action and address the humanitarian crisis at the southern border is a call to action for all Americans. The situation is dire, and we must come together to find a solution that is both humane and effective.

• Illegal immigration is at an all-time high
• Title 42 has expired, and officials fear a mass surge of immigrants
• Crossing the border is extremely dangerous and can be fatal

Let us hope that our leaders will heed Senator Cruz’s call and work towards a better future for all.
