By now most of the world has seen the horror that is American southern border policy and the roundup of Haitian illegal aliens. The images are searing in their depiction of white border patrol agents on horseback chasing after and nabbing black people as they are running for their lives. The pictures wouldn't look out of place in a scene from "Roots" with southern white plantation owners chasing after runaway slaves.
Yet despite these obviously racist actions, Joe Biden has somehow managed to escape any real blame for the chaos. Instead the blame has been deflected to the Homeland Security chief Alejandro Mayorkas, who dutifully stated that the pictures "horrified" him. Whatever happened to the buck stops here? Biden is the president and in charge of our border security. The liberal press is giving him a free pass as usual. They are hunting for anybody else, ANYBODY, to blame for this mess.
As usual they figured out that former President Trump makes for a very convenient boogeyman as half the population will readily believe this deflection. It's true that Trump was very tough in his dealings with illegal aliens, but he hasn't been president for nine months.
Biden is the one in charge now and if he chooses to continue Trump's policies, then they are now Biden's policies. But the press still write as if Trump made him do this, like they actually believed Biden was duty bound to abandon Afghanistan because of Trump's agreement with the Taliban.
One of the few people who called out Biden on his racism, ironically, is NAACP President Derrick Johnson, "The humanitarian crisis happening under this administration on the southern border disgustingly mirrors some of the darkest moments in America's history." Right on. If Trump was still president, you can bet the press would be hanging this on his neck 24/7. CNN and MSNBC would be showing these pictures and videos hourly until the next crisis comes along that they can blame Trump on.
As the POTUS, Biden is ultimately responsible for all government policies being carried out, especially since his predecessor has been out of office for nearly a year. But Biden, this racist, xenophobic president, gets away with it because of the fawning liberal press. No wonder nobody trusts the media anymore.
