The “Biden … Open Border Directive” is a fictional phrase. Search ‘open border directive’.
The right leaning Cato Institute states the immigration problem began with Trump during his first term. Illegal immigration was at a 21-year high before Biden’s term. “Biden tripled interior detention…border detention 12-fold.” “Biden negotiated broader expulsion deals with foreign countries than Trump.” “Biden got...foreign countries to carry out crackdowns on...migration.” “Biden removed...expelled 3.3 million border crossers-three times...Trump.”
The high-quality problem Biden created was the USA labor market had recovered quicker than the rest of the world after Covid. Consequently, people seeking employment, went where the jobs are, yielding increased immigration. Trump pooh-poohed a bipartisan immigration bill solely for a campaign issue. America First?
