Joe Biden Appoints Special Envoy to Stem Border Surge as White House Asserts Situation ‘Not a Crisis’

Edwin Mora 22 Mar 2021Washington, DC

The Biden administration appointed a special envoy Monday to help oversee its efforts to stem the ongoing influx of Central American migrants to the U.S. southern border as it faces bipartisan pressure to address the surge.

The White House remained adamant Monday that the situation at the U.S.-Mexico border is “not a crisis” despite photos and videos showing otherwise.

Still, the Biden administration found it necessary to create a new position to help its effort to contain the flood of illegal migrants reaching the United States, particularly unaccompanied children. The U.S. State Department, which will oversee the new envoy, described the move as a high priority.

Nevertheless, Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have yet to visit the border.

Biden officials tapped Ricardo Zúñiga to serve as a special envoy for the Northern Triangle, a region comprised of El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras.

Those three countries have long been the source of a significant portion of illegal migration to the United States.

From the article:
"The Biden administration appointed a special envoy Monday to help oversee its efforts to stem the ongoing influx of Central American migrants to the U.S. southern border..."

An "envoy" -- or a gaggle of envoys -- will not stem the oncoming flood.

It was the controls (and ongoing border barrier) put into place during the Trump administration that succeeded in doing so.

After the removal of those policies, the results we are seeing are exactly what could be expected.
