Biden goes on Univision, cites concern with taking ‘unilateral’ action on the border because he would never want to do something dictatorial
By Jack Hellner
Last Wednesday Joe Biden went on Univision for an interview, which only aired last night—the studio needed a week to clean up the flubs and present a coherent exchange. During the segment, Biden said the reason that he hasn’t issued any executive orders to close the border is because he worries about whether or not he legally and constitutionally has the power to do so.

This is total B.S. From Reuters:

Biden says he is examining power to shut US border on his own

President Joe Biden said in an interview broadcast on Tuesday that he and his administration are trying to determine whether he has the authority to act on his own to shut down the U.S.'s southern border with Mexico to migrants, should it be deemed necessary.

Biden told Univision in the interview that because bipartisan legislation that would have granted him the authority to shut the border was stalled by Republicans in Congress, he was being encouraged to try to do it alone.

‘We’re examining whether or not I have that power,’ Biden said, adding there was ‘no guarantee’ he has the power without legislation.

People should ask… Who was responsible for all the executive orders Biden already signed to open the border? Who was responsible for the EOs that crippled energy independence? He clearly didn’t write them, and my guess is, he didn’t even read them. He just signed them. He campaigned from the basement and was clearly installed as a puppet to implement the radical agenda to destroy and remake America, which was always… Obama’s goal.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

From the article…..

During the segment, Biden said the reason that he hasn’t issued any executive orders to close the border is because he worries about whether or not he legally and constitutionally has the power to do so.



Yet he doesn’t seem to have that concern when it comes to things like student loan forgiveness  and forcing vaccines on people
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

He used EOs to open the border so it makes little sense he can't use them to close it - except for political ramifications in an election year.

Nothing "dictatorial" with enforcing the laws already in place. He's full of marlarkey.
