Trump Officials: Biden, Mayorkas ‘Have Blood on Their Hands’

June 29, 2022

In a joint statement written in response to the deaths of 48 border crossers near San Antonio, Texas, former Trump administration officials say President Joe Biden and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas “have blood on their hands.”

“Their open-borders policies are driving record numbers of migrant deaths, not to mention record numbers of American deaths from fentanyl poisonings,” wrote former Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Commissioner Mark Morgan and former Acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Director Thomas Homan.

“I know what it is like to stand in the back of a tractor-trailer with 19 dead migrants at my feet, including a 5-year-old boy that suffocated to death in 170-degree heat in a steel box in total blackness,” Homan said. “It changed me forever. This tragedy is worse.”

Morgan added:

The Biden administration has told lie after lie about creating a ‘safe, orderly, and humane’ process. We’ve known that’s a lie from the beginning but how better to understand than looking at the bodies of 46 dead migrants, including 4 innocent kids?

This administration is responsible for untold suffering and death, and it’s all been needless. They know full well the costs of their open borders policies but are pursuing them anyway — all for political benefit and pursuit of their personal ideology. It’s disgusting. How many more Americans and migrants have to die before we say enough is enough and demand the Biden administration take back our borders from the cartels?

Homan, likewise, blamed Biden’s pro-mass migration efforts for the continuing rise of migrant deaths:

I have been warning for a year that a tragedy was going to occur because of the increase in truck smuggling, together with open borders, catch-and-release, and no chance of being deported, the most vulnerable people in the world will put themselves in the hands of criminal cartels to seek the promise that Biden and Mayorkas have made.

How is open borders and the policies of this administration humane? The most humane thing we can do is secure the border and stop catch and release. That will immediately decrease the crossings and the number of deaths. That is a fact.
