On Monday, White House press secretary Jen Psaki and the Biden admin got called out on their selective vaccination requirements when it comes to people arriving in the U.S. by air vs. walking in across the southern border. Psaki said those arriving at the southern border aren’t required to be vaccinated because they don’t intend to stay long:
Jen Psaki again struggles to explain why migrants crossing the border don’t have to prove vaccination while foreign travelers to the U.S. do.
“It’s not the same thing. … They’re not intending to stay here for an extended period of time.”

DOOCY: "Is somebody asking the foreign nationals who are walking into Del Rio, Texas and setting up camps on this side of the border for proof of vaccination or a negative COVID test?"@PressSec says "It's not the same thing" as people who fly into the country. pic.twitter.com/caHjaMgocy

Fox News’ Bill Melugin, who has spent more time at the border than Biden and Harris combined (WAY more time), called BS on Psaki’s desperate spin:
.@BillFOXLA with a BRUTAL fact-check: “That was an interesting press conference…[Psaki] doesn't believe the migrants down here intend to stay for a long time. That’s news to these folks…They are not traveling from halfway around the world to go on a little camping trip.” pic.twitter.com/n3er4A1bdk

Somebody show that to Psaki at tomorrow’s press conference.
.@BillFOXLA: The WH “made it sound like all these people were going to be sent back to Haiti, don't come here b/c you're not going to get in…That is just not true. Under this administration, catch & release has been happening ever since the Biden administration came in[.]” pic.twitter.com/yaJAxpnpVR

.@BillFOXLA: “The bottom line here is…when you're actually on the ground talking with the people dealing with this, talking to the people showing up here, you will understand…The word is out right now that they believe, under this administration, they have a chance to stay.” pic.twitter.com/ym3qYCTeBj

.@BillFOXLA: “Once the word gets out that Title 42 could go, border agents say a expected surge on top of the surge on top of the surge, and things could get much worse…[W]e just keep banging our head against the wall as a country and not changing…[S]omething has to change.” pic.twitter.com/FSKaxDOinP

Meanwhile, the Biden administration is dumping on the border patrol even after they put them in an impossible situation.
