House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-Louisiana) responded to media claims that Biden would curb asylum seekers, saying President Joe Biden should “remain in Mexico” if he wants his 2024 border pledge to be taken seriously. said the border wall should be restored.
“If these reports are true and the President intends to take action, he could show he is serious by changing more than just asylum policy,” Johnson said in a tweet Thursday. The president should start by reinstating the Remain in Mexico policy, along with other important reforms, by ending the administration’s abuse of the parole system.”
Mr Johnson added that he understands immigration and supports the House of Commons’ No. 2 HR reform plan.
Americans have lost faith in this president and will not be fooled by election year tricks that don’t actually secure our borders. We will also remember that the president created this disaster and has so far refused to use presidential authority to resolve it.

Since January 2021, Biden and his agents have taken in nearly 7 million illegal immigrants, or about two immigrants for every three births in the United States. The wave of foreigners transferring wealth has been deeply unpopular, prompting a PR shift in the campaign by Biden’s 2024 managers.
Biden’s migration began when he ended the “Remain in Mexico” program and reinstated catch-and-release policies. The program was launched by President Donald Trump to deter migrants seeking work by denying asylum seekers the jobs they needed to pay off high-interest smuggling loans.
Biden’s lawmakers created a parole pathway in 2023 to import more immigrants. Since then, more than 1 million immigrants have been invited to seek wages and productivity-boosting workplace upgrades that would otherwise go to American families.
Leaked claims of policy change by Biden are being believed and repeated by the establishment media. Gullible media reports suggest that an ailing Biden may not have the bureaucratic power, or even willing lawmakers, needed to force pro-immigration allies and lawmakers to impose significant border restrictions. do not realize that there is.
Democrats have already taken advantage of Senate Republicans’ swift rejection of a border concession bill drafted in secret by Sens. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.). Republicans are blaming Biden for his unpopular policies.
“Republicans…. You can make this [bill] happen. Otherwise, this will become a wedge issue that will force them into November this year,” said New York Governor Kathy Hochul. claimed “I warn them, you broke it, now you own it.”
Meanwhile, the media is denying the growing evidence that immigrants are causing economic harm to blue-collar and white-collar Americans.

The media is even ignoring growing Republican criticism of immigration’s negative impact on Americans’ access to government services such as schools and hospitals.
But Mr. Johnson’s statement is important as Mr. Biden’s lawmakers are now trying to overcome Mr. Johnson’s opposition to a bill that would allocate about $10 billion to expand immigration.
Johnson writes:
Republicans have been sounding the alarm since the start of Biden’s term about the devastating effects of his open border policies. Last year, I sent a letter to the President requesting that he take immediate executive action. He has so far ignored my requests despite pleas from big city mayors, border state governors, and the American people.
In an election year, tens of thousands of Americans have tragically lost their lives to fentanyl poisoning and countless unaccompanied minors and young people have been trafficked after the president surrendered the border to cartels and smugglers. After millions of illegal aliens were scattered across our country by the Biden administration, the president is suddenly using legal powers he claimed did not exist until recently to make changes. It seems that he is interested in doing so.
Americans have lost faith in this president and will not be fooled by election year tricks that don’t actually secure our borders. We will also remember that the president created this disaster and has so far refused to use presidential authority to resolve it.
These reports also highlight how President Biden brazenly and intentionally misled the public when he claimed he was doing everything in his power to secure the border.Specifically, the president is said to want to invoke Section 212.[f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, which the White House dismissed using for months, is particularly telling.
If these reports are true and the President intends to take action, he can show he’s serious by changing more than a solid policy. He should begin by reinstating the Remain in Mexico policy and ending his administration’s abuse of the parole system, along with other critical reforms.
Biden’s inflow of migrants has imposed a huge cost on Americans by pressuring down Americans’ wages. It has also boosted rents and housing prices, eased drug smuggling, and reduced native-born Americans’ clout in local and national elections.
This influx also caused many American-born people to lose their careers in various fields, leading to a sharp rise in the number of “deaths of despair.”
