Fox News White House Correspondent Peter Doocy asked White House Press

Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre straight up how long Vice President

Kamala Harris has thought President Joe Biden has done a bad job with the border issue.

Doocy asked Jean-Pierre about Harris’ campaign promise to add more border

guards to stop people from coming into the U.S. illegally. President Joe Biden

put the vice president in charge of addressing the “root causes” of migration

in Mexico and the Northern Triangle countries in March 2021. During her time

in the administration and as a U.S. senator, she changed her mind several times about how she felt about illegal immigration.

“How long have you guys known that Vice President Kamala Harris does not think

President Biden is doing a good job at the border?” Doocy asked, followed by

Jean-Pierre asking him to repeat the question. “Well, she’s now promising

to hire thousands more border agents than there are now under President Biden.

“The president does want more Border Patrol agents,” Jean-Pierre said.

“You know who’s getting in the way? Republicans in Congress. They’re getting in the way.

You know who else is getting in the way? The former president, Donald Trump. He’s getting

in the way. I mean, there’s no daylight here. I’m not getting the question because there’s

no daylight. The president believes that as well and he’s worked toward doing that.”

Jean-Pierre talked about the Emergency National Security Supplemental Appropriations

Act, which was meant to give money to hire more Border Patrol agents and immigration judges to speed up the process of immigration.

The law also wanted to get rid of foreigners who came to the U.S. illegally

when the average number of people coming in each day for a week was more than 5,000.

In a 49-50 vote on February 7, Senate Republicans stopped the bill from moving forward.

Speaker of the House Mike Johnson said the bill would be “dead on arrival” in the House.

A lot of ads from Harris’s campaign say that the vice president plans to make the border

safer and ease the problem. In a July ad, Harris is said to back up hiring more Border Patrol agents,

using new technology to stop drugs from coming into the U.S. and spending more money to stop people from being trafficked.

Harris was the “border czar,” and Rodney Scott was the head of the Border Patrol during that time.

On August 8, Scott told the Daily Caller News Foundation that Harris never talked to him.

Scott also told the DCNF that the Biden-Harris administration “redirected millions and millions”

from enforcement operations to let more illegal immigrants into the U.S. He also said that

the administration was giving taxpayer money to NGOs so that they could fly more illegal

immigrants to “wherever they want to go” instead of putting enforcement first.

Harris, when she was a senator in 2018, said that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)

was like the Ku Klux Klan and that the agency should be gotten rid of.

She also said that she thought illegal aliens should be able to get health insurance in 2020.
