Years after acknowledging and even praising President Joe Biden for naming Vice President Kamala Harris border czar, corporate media claimed the presumptive 2024 Democrat nominee was never charged with overseeing the logistics of the record-breaking invasion. <\/p>\n
Biden first charged Harris with leading our efforts with Mexico and the Northern Triangle and the countries that help are going to need help in stemming the movement of so many folks, stemming the migration to our southern border in March 2021. At the time, he claimed the former California attorney general and senator was the most qualified person to do it. <\/p>\n
Harris didnt do much with the title and task. Yet, even her delayed first and only (and heavily staged) visit to the border received celebration from her allies in the press. <\/p>\n
This kid-glove treatment intensified recently when corporate media accused those critical of Harris failure to do anything but exacerbate the Biden administration-incentivized invasion of making the VP a convenient scapegoat. <\/p>\n
Harriss job was meant to be narrow, The Wall Street Journal insisted, and over the years Harris has fulfilled it by announcing tranches of private investments by companies like Pepsi, Cargill and Nestle in Central America. <\/p>\n
Axios insinuated in an X post on Wednesday that Republicans are wrong to point out Harris border failures because the Democrat never actually had the title border czar. <\/p>\n
The outlets complaints that the Trump campaign and Republicans like House GOP Chair Elise Stefanik have unfairly labeled Harris role, however, fall short in the face of its own reporting, which repeatedly referred to Harris as Bidens border czar. <\/p>\n
The same Axios author who wrote on Wednesday that Harris was only meant to help with a slice of the migration issue, penned a March 2021 article claiming Biden put Harris in charge of the border crisis. <\/p>\n
Axios added an editors note to the story shortly after publication with a notice stating three years later it was among the news outlets that incorrectly labeled Harris a border czar. <\/p>\n
Why, other than the usual motivations for the corporate media to deliberately distort the narrative, would publications like Axios lie about something its own pages contradict? <\/p>\n
Its because the border has been and continues to be a political grenade for the Democrats who wrecked it. Stef W. Kight explicitly stated in her latest story that she aimed to signal it has become even more critical for Harris to find a clear border message, fast. <\/p>\n
Making a clear immigration pitch to voters could be critical for Harriss campaign, Kight repeated, before noting that illegal border crossing activists are invigorated by Harris rise on the ticket because she is personally well-versed and invested in the issue. <\/p>\n
Politifact, known for aiding Big Techs censorship efforts by printing fake fact-checks designed to demonize political dissenters, even joined in the propaganda dogpile when it claimed that Harris was merely assigned to tackle immigrations causes, not border security. <\/p>\n
USA Today, similarly, published a fact-check that deemed the claim that Harris was the presidential pick to oversee the skyrocketing number of illegal crossings exaggerates the vice presidents role in addressing migration at the southern border. <\/p>\n
One quick look at Bidens border czar pronouncement in 2021 suggests the opposite. <\/p>\n
Biden noted that he was tasked with a similar assignment to determine the best way to keep people from coming is keep them from wanting to leave during the Obama administration. <\/p>\n
The Vice President has agreed among the multiple other things that I have her leading and I appreciate it agreed to lead our diplomatic effort and work with those nations to accept re- the returnees, and enhance migration enforcement at their borders at their borders. <\/p>\n
Harris also explicitly emphasized in her acceptance that we will enforce the law. <\/p>\n
The real border story continues to be that the Biden administration ushered in the deadliest invasion in the world without facing any accountability. Corporate media, however, are more interested in running propaganda to help Democrats 2024 election chances instead of covering how Americans are suffering the consequences like violent crime,fatal drugs, andinfrastructure problems that are directly linked to the ongoing influx of illegal border crossers. <\/p>\n
