Jen Psaki: ‘Self-Separating’ Families ‘Unintended Consequence’ of Joe Biden Migrant Policy

Charlie Spiering 16 Apr 2021

White House press secretary Jen Psaki acknowledged Thursday that migrant families were “self-separating” to get their children into the United States.

“That certainly is an unintended consequence,” Psaki said. “And we have been clear and we have continued to convey the message that our border is not open, that it is a treacherous journey.”

But President Joe Biden repeatedly makes it clear that unaccompanied minor migrants apprehended on the Southern border will be allowed into the United States.

“The only people we’re not going to let sitting there on the other side of the Rio Grande by themselves with no help are children,” Biden said during a press conference in March.

More than 18,500 unaccompanied children crossed the border in March, according to preliminary data, 60 percent higher than the previous record of 11,494 in May 2019.

Border Patrol leader Brian Hastings confirmed in an interview Monday that families were separating themselves at the border.

“What we are seeing, more and more, is the families are self-separating in Mexico,” he said.

How unfortunate. The Illegals are smarter than the Biden Adm.   But then most everyone is smarter than the Biden Adm.

"Unintended"? It was so predictable that it had to be an accepted, if not intended, "consequence".

How can you tell Jen Psaki is lying? One or more of her body orifices emits a sound.  :bolt:
