Originally, the Biden administration’s 2021 refugee cap would be raised to 62,500. Until it wouldn’t be.

Then the record low cap of 15,000 was “justified.” Until it wasn’t.

The record low cap had nothing to do with the migrant surge at the southern border. Until it did.

As President Biden reversed himself this month on a campaign promise to significantly increase the number of refugees admitted into the country, his administration repeatedly contradicted itself as it tried to explain the policy shift (which it later claimed wasn’t a “change in policy”). You can watch the Biden administration’s shifting explanations on the refugee admissions cap in the video above, and we’ll detail some of the key ones below.

The "policy" is... there IS NO policy.

To steal the line from "The End" by The Doors:
"The West is the best.
GET HERE...
... and we'll do the rest."
