 Biden didn’t meet Kathy Hochul about NY migrant crisis because he ‘has a lot on his plate’

WASHINGTON — President Biden didn’t meet with New York Gov. Kathy Hochul when she visited the White House on Wednesday to discuss the Empire State’s flood of migrants because there was “a lot going on” and he “has a lot on his plate.”

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on Thursday justified Biden blowing off Hochul, who last week demanded that he do more to address New York’s migrant “humanitarian crisis” — though the 80-year-old commander in chief had a seemingly non-time-sensitive meeting Wednesday afternoon with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.).

“Well look, as you just stated, there’s a lot going on,” Jean-Pierre said in response to a question from CBS News reporter Ed O’Keefe.

“His chief of staff [Jeff Zients] met — was part of that meeting, I believe [Homeland Security] Secretary [Alejandro] Mayorkas was part of that meeting, some of his very high-level senior staff participated in the meeting with the governor, which is as you said a very important meeting to have,” Jean-Pierre said.

“He has a very good relationship with the governor. We’ve been — every time we’re in New York, the president — practically every time — the president engages with the governor.”

Not exactly a plate. More like a dish or a waffle cone filled with chocolate chip ice cream.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-
