In\u200d an\u200d exclusive interview with the Washington\u200b Examiner, \u2063Lake expressed her belief that Biden intentionally \u2063dismantled an effective border policy that \u200dwas working, leading \u200dto the destabilization of\u200c the country.<\/p>\n<h3>Unchecked Illegal Immigration\u200c and Fentanyl Epidemic<\/h3>\n<p>Lake, who\u200c previously worked as a TV anchor\u2064 and ran for governor \u2064in 2022, highlighted the millions of people who \u200bhave illegally immigrated to \u200cthe United States\u2063 through Mexico since Biden took office. She also \u2064drew attention to the growing fentanyl epidemic, which she believes\u200b is a direct result of \u2063Biden&#8217;s policy choices.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re witnessing the devastating consequences of this \u200cunchecked\u2062 illegal\u200c immigration crisis, along with\u200d the weapon of mass destruction known as fentanyl. It&#8217;s like a jumbo jet\u200b crashing \u2063every day, claiming countless lives,&#8221; Lake stated. &#8220;Our country has\u2062 been invaded,\u2064 and we now have a \u200dforeign army of people within our \u2064borders. Americans are no longer safe.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>Terrorists and Criminals \u200cEntering the Country<\/h3>\n<p>In fiscal year 2023, the \u200cU.S. Border Patrol apprehended over \u200c170\u200c individuals on the FBI&#8217;s terror watch list as they \u2062attempted to enter the country \u200billegally from Canada or Mexico. This number is significantly\u2062 higher than in previous years, with many of \u2063the suspected or \u2062known terrorists identified as Colombians with \u2064affiliations to civil war-era groups.<\/p>\n<h2>Lake&#8217;s Bid for \u2064GOP Nomination<\/h2>\n<p>Lake officially announced her candidacy for the GOP\u2062 nomination\u200b in mid-October and currently \u2063has \u200bthe highest name recognition\u2063 among Republican candidates. On the Democratic side, Rep. Ruben\u200c Gallego\u200c (D-AZ) is also vying for \u2062the seat currently held by independent\u2063 Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ).<\/p>\n<p>According to polling data released in November, Gallego holds a 6 percentage point\u2064 lead over Lake among \u200cArizona registered voters. Lake, however, has the support of former \u2062President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n<h3>Lake&#8217;s Plan to Address the Border Crisis<\/h3>\n<p>While Lake endorses \u200dTrump&#8217;s\u200c approach to border security,\u200d she has\u2064 developed her own 10-step plan to address the\u200c crisis. Her plan includes building a physical barrier, deporting \u2062individuals who illegally cross the border \u200cbetween land ports \u2064of entry, and enforcing immigration laws to their \u2062fullest \u2064extent.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Lake proposes hiring more immigration judges, constructing detention facilities on the border, \u200bimplementing a government program to screen job-seekers, and withholding foreign aid from countries\u2063 that\u200d do\u2063 not cooperate in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/texas-land-official-reels-in-bidens-fish-and-wildlife-attempt-to-sink-border-buoys\/\" title=\"Texas land official thwarts Biden's Fish and Wildlife bid to submerge border buoys.\">stopping\u200d illegal immigration<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Challenges Ahead<\/h3>\n<p>Completing the border wall, in particular, may prove challenging. During his \u2064tenure, Trump only managed to complete 1 mile of wall despite\u200b having a\u200b Republican-controlled\u200b House and Senate for two years. However,\u2063 Lake \u200dremains confident \u2063that as a senator, \u200cshe can expedite the\u2064 completion of wall\u200d projects within a matter of months.<\/p>\n<p>The Washington Examiner reached out to the White House for comment.<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> What are Kari Lake&#8217;s \u200bconcerns regarding the lack of proper screening and vetting\u2064 procedures at the southern border?<\/h2>\n<p><span>  Lake \u200bpointed out that\u2063 the number of people caught crossing the southern border illegally included individuals from over 100 different countries, some of which are known to be home to terrorist organizations. She expressed concern that the\u200b lack \u2064of \u200dproper screening and\u2063 vetting procedures could potentially allow terrorists and \u200bcriminals to enter the country unnoticed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The failure to secure our\u200c borders has created a national security crisis. We don&#8217;t know who is coming in,\u200b and this \u200dputs every American at risk,&#8221; Lake\u2064 warned. &#8220;It is astonishing \u2062that the Biden administration is willing to compromise our safety for the sake of a\u2062 political agenda.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>The Impact on Border States<\/h3>\n<p>As a resident of Arizona, a state that shares a\u2064 significant portion of its border with Mexico, Lake has witnessed firsthand the consequences of\u200b the illegal immigration crisis. She highlighted the strain it has placed on border communities and\u200c the local law enforcement agencies tasked with managing the situation.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our\u200d border towns are\u200b overwhelmed, our hospitals are inundated, and our resources are stretched thin,&#8221; Lake said. &#8220;This crisis doesn&#8217;t just affect Arizona; it has a ripple effect that reaches all across the country.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>An \u2062Urgent Call for Action<\/h3>\n<p>With the illegal immigration \u2062crisis continuing\u200b to \u2062escalate, Lake urged the Biden administration \u200dto take\u200d immediate action and restore effective border policies. She called \u200dfor increased border security, including the construction of physical \u2063barriers in areas prone to illegal crossings, as well as the implementation of strict screening procedures for all individuals entering the country.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We need to regain control of our borders and protect the\u200c American people,&#8221; Lake declared. &#8220;The current \u200bsituation is unsustainable and dangerous. \u2062It&#8217;s\u200c time for President Biden to prioritize the safety and security of our nation.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>The Response from the\u2064 Biden Administration<\/h3>\n<p>In response to Lake&#8217;s statements, the\u2063 Biden administration has defended its immigration policies. White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki emphasized\u2064 the administration&#8217;s commitment to \u200da fair and humane approach to immigration while acknowledging the challenges at the border.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We inherited a broken immigration system, and we \u2063are working to address the root causes and create a more secure and\u200d orderly process,&#8221; Psaki stated. &#8220;We are investing in border infrastructure and technology, as well as working with regional \u2064partners to address the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/here-are-the-10-spots-on-the-texas-border-where-biden-is-building-more-wall\/\" title=\"Biden constructing additional wall at 10 Texas border spots.\">underlying issues driving migration<\/a>.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>However, Lake remains unconvinced \u2063and continues to hold Biden accountable for the illegal immigration crisis. With her \u2063sights set on becoming the\u200b next Arizona\u2064 senator, she promises to prioritize border security and advocate for\u2062 policies that prioritize the well-being of American citizens.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, Kari Lake firmly places blame on President Joe\u200c Biden for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-view-hosts-say-illegal-aliens-need-to-be-resettled-elsewhere-after-mayor-adams-says-migrant-crisis-will-destroy-nyc\/\" title=\"'The View' hosts advocate relocating illegal aliens due to NYC Mayor Adams' concerns over the migrant crisis destroying the city.\">ongoing illegal\u2063 immigration crisis<\/a> at the southern border. Highlighting the consequences of unchecked migration, Lake points out\u2062 the dangers posed to national security, the influx of \u2063illicit \u200bdrugs,\u2063 and the strain on border communities. Urging the Biden administration to take immediate\u200c action, Lake emphasizes the importance of restoring effective border policies and prioritizing\u200d the safety\u2064 and security of the American people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kari Lake, a fiery Republican aiming to be Arizona&#8217;s next senator, holds President Joe Biden responsible for the ongoing illegal immigration crisis at the southern border.
