Fox News anchor Chris Wallace is suggesting the Biden administration does not have “much of an answer” for the crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border.
“America’s Newsroom” anchor Bill Hemmer pointed out it has been 16 days since Vice President Kamala Harris was tapped to handle the crisis at the border and has yet to make a comment about it.
He asked Wallace, “What do you think this indicates about what this administration’s priorities are?”
Wallace replied, “It doesn’t seem that they have much of an answer to the crisis at the border and maybe that’s the reason that they are not pushing it.”
When discussing Biden’s explanation of what Harris’s role would look like, Wallace noted the president later clarified, “She’s in charge of diplomacy with Mexico and with the Northern Triangle countries to try to stem the flow to the border.”

While Wallace acknowledged Harris “has had a couple of phone calls with top officials in those countries,” he also pointed out she “hasn’t gone to the border and she hasn’t gone to the Northern Triangle and she hasn’t gone to Mexico, which kind of makes you wonder whether she knows this is a mess and doesn’t want her fingerprints on it.”
The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) encountered more than 172,000 migrants in March trying to enter along the southern border, as IJR reported.
