&#8220;As soon as I am in a position to implement what we&#8217;re doing right now,&#8221; he explained. &#8220;I don&#8217;t know,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p>Biden also issued a thinly veiled threat against Vice President <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/politics\/kamala-harris-border-crisis\/\">Kamala Harris<\/a>, who has been tasked with leading the administration&#8217;s response to the border crisis.&nbsp;&#8220;It&#8217;s going to get a whole hell of a lot better real quick or we&#8217;re going to hear some people leaving,&#8221; he said of the situation at the border. &#8220;We can get this done.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Yamiche Alcindor, White House correspondent for <em>PBS News Hour<\/em>, grilled Biden on whether the border crisis was being fueled by &#8220;the perception of you, that got you elected, as a moral, decent man.&#8221; Biden demurred. &#8220;I guess I should be flattered,&#8221; he said, but went on to suggest that most illegal immigrants were crossing the border for other reasons.<\/p>\n<p>Biden conspicuously declined to take a question from Fox News reporter Peter Doocy, with whom the president has sparred in the past. On one occasion during the 2020 primary, Biden berated Doocy for asking about the love child his son, Hunter Biden, fathered with a stripper. &#8220;That&#8217;s a private matter.
