She claimed the Trump administration\u2019s \u201cdestructive and chaotic policies\u201d were responsible for the \u201cinflux of migrants at the border\u201d and that the influx began under the Trump administration and was \u201cexacerbated\u201d by them.<\/p>\n<p>Psaki began by stating, \u201cI wanted to provide a brief update on the situation on our Southern border; after four years of an immigration system rooted in destructive and chaotic policies, President Biden is taking the challenge head-on and is building a fair, orderly and humane immigration system. That\u2019s our objective.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She immediately shifted blame for the crisis on to the Trump administration, snapping, \u201cAfter coming into office, our administration immediately jumped into action to address the influx of migrants at the border, something that began during and was exacerbated by the Trump administration. And we wanted to provide a couple of pieces of data you may have seen, but they\u2019ve come out since the last time we had a briefing in here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt the end of March, there were more than 5,000 children in Customs and Border Protection patrol stations,\u201d she claimed. \u201cToday, that number is approximately 600. The amount of time children spend in CBP facilities is down by 75%, from 131 hours at the end of March to under 30 hours now. And just yesterday, the Department of Homeland Security announced that it will begin the process of reuniting a number of families who were separated by the policies of the previous administration.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\" readability=\"8.5658914728682\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki began today&#8217;s briefing with a whopper of lie in which she blamed the surge of illegal immigrants after President Biden took office on\u2026.Donald Trump. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/9z4Ur894AQ\">pic.twitter.com\/9z4Ur894AQ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Curtis Houck (@CurtisHouck) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CurtisHouck\/status\/1389633986411077632?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 4, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In contrast to Psaki\u2019s bald-faced attempt to shift blame for the border crisis to the Trump administration, The Daily Wire\u2019s Chrissy Clark, who recently visited the Southern border, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/video-the-border-crisis-is-even-worse-than-you-think\">wrote<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"18\">\n<p><em>In March, Customs and Border Protection (CBP) encountered more than 172,000 migrants attempting to come into the United States, which is the largest increase in illegal crossings in two decades.\u00a0Border Patrol agents we spoke with at length told The Daily Wire that the surge in migration began on January 20 \u2014 the day President Joe Biden was inaugurated.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>People on the ground at the border confirmed to The Daily Wire that hundreds of migrants are being stuffed into holding facilities meant for only a few dozen people.
