No kidding. When you look at the vaccination rates between red and blue states, even just among white people born here, it is really glaring as to whom the real threat is to public health. White Republican denial is the biggest heath threat to America right now.
But that is not what Biden is doing what he is doing. It is a volume thing, not a race thing, not a xenophobia thing. Obama's administration deported people too. In a perfect world, it would be great if we could let anyone in who is innocent whom is simply trying not to die. But the fact is we only can do so much.
Even without climate refugees, because of the Republicans and farts noise claiming masks and vaccine mandates are oppression, our hospitals are at max and we are unfortunately to the point in many locals, to the point of rationing care.
What media isn't reporting enough, is that although Biden is deporting, he still has a priority agenda. And actually this has been the norm most of our history. The most vulnerable, such as political asylum, and women, children and men with severe health risk get to the front of the line. Trump and the GOP are assholes, and they would tell Malala to fuck off.
Point is, migration is not a utopia. In a perfect world everyone would get in. But we do not live in a perfect world.
In the last days of Nam, when America decided to pull out, we only managed to bring a couple thousand political refugees back with us. Biden managed to save over 150k Afghanis.
If anyone thinks, say outside the former fuckface, and still fuckface, that most Presidents in the past 50 years revel in seeing other humans suffer, they have to be out of their minds. As much as I hated what Reagan's economics were, he DID end the cold war. Biden isn't like Trump, not even close. But he is a captain on a cruise ship unfortunately having to decide who gets on the life boats, because there are only so many seats.
There were about 120K refugees were brought to the US. That's quite a few more then a "couple thousand".
