President Biden’s planned Sunday trip to the Mexican border, his first after two years in office, is all about posturing for a 2024 re-election bid, some critics charge, as his administration’s new immigration plan is panned as “OpenTable for illegals” and “streamlining illegality.”
On “The Five” Friday, host Greg Gutfeld responded to reports the president has said he will accept 30,000 new migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela on a monthly basis as long as they follow the process.
“I’m all for coming here legally. That’s not the argument,” Gutfeld said. “This is all about illegality — streamlining illegality.”
Biden announced an expansion of a humanitarian parole program for such migrants. The newcomers will be paroled into the U.S. for a two-year period as long as they have a financial sponsor and pass other conditions. Those who attempt to enter illegally are made ineligible for the program.
