White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has been tasked with explaining the move, but her answers have left many unsatisfied.<\/p>\n<h3>Why Deploy Troops to a &#8220;Secure&#8221; Border?<\/h3>\n<p>When asked by Fox News reporter Peter Doocy why the administration is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/u-n-peacekeepers-killed-in-central-african-republic-before-election\/\" title=\"U.N. peacekeepers killed in Central African Republic before election\">sending troops<\/a> to a border that Jean-Pierre has described as &#8220;secure,&#8221; she struggled to provide a clear answer. &#8220;We need more work. We need more\u2014work needs to be done,&#8221; she said. &#8220;Republicans in Congress refused to act. &#8230;We are putting &#8230; forth processes to deal with the changes that are going to be ahead of us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Despite Jean-Pierre&#8217;s attempts to downplay the deployment, it comes amid an expected surge in migration this month. And her claim that &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/bidens-blue-state-claw-back\/\" title=\"Biden\u2019s Blue State Claw Back\">illegal immigration<\/a>&#8221; has &#8220;come down by more than 90 percent&#8221; has been proven false. Illegal immigration actually hit a record-high in 2022 of 2.76 million encounters.<\/p>\n<h3>Is the Border Really &#8220;Secure&#8221;?<\/h3>\n<p>Jean-Pierre has repeatedly claimed that the situation at the southern border is not out of control and has agreed with Vice President Kamala Harris&#8217;s claim that the border is &#8220;secure.&#8221; However, this claim has been met with skepticism, as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/texas-authorities-search-for-tanker-truck-believed-to-contain-dozens-to-be-trafficked\/\" title=\"Texas authorities search for tanker truck believed to contain dozens to be trafficked\">illegal immigration continues<\/a> to be a major issue.<\/p>\n<h3>What&#8217;s Next?<\/h3>\n<p>Despite assurances from Jean-Pierre, Harris, and Department of Homeland Security secretary Alejandro Mayorkas that the border is secure, the administration is sending 1,500 active duty troops to the border ahead of the expiration of Title 42. The troops will assist agents with administrative duties, joining 2,500 National Guard troops already deployed at the border.<\/p>\n<p>It remains to be seen whether this deployment will have any impact on the situation at the border, but one thing is clear: the issue of illegal immigration is far from resolved.<\/p>\n<h3>Key Takeaways:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>The Biden administration is deploying 1,500 active-duty troops to the southern border.<\/li>\n<li>White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has struggled to explain why the administration is sending troops to a border that she has described as &#8220;secure.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Illegal immigration has hit a record-high in 2022 of 2.76 million encounters, despite claims to the contrary by Jean-Pierre and others.<\/li>\n<li>The deployment comes ahead of an expected surge in migration this month and the expiration of Title 42.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre struggled to explain why the Biden administration needs to deploy troops to the border that she has described as &#8220;secure.&#8221; &#8220;Because we need more work.
