Tired of COVID-19 restrictions? Then don't complain about the end of Title 42
If Republicans – and even some Democrats – want no COVID-19 restrictions, then why complain about ending Title 42?
The folks furious about President Biden finally ending the health clause are the same ones who want no masks, no vaccine requirements nor any other type of COVID-19 mandates.
Yet, they’re going to court to use the COVID-19 restriction to keep expelling most border crossers.
That doesn’t make any sense – logically, anyway.
On Monday, Arizona, Missouri and Louisiana filed a lawsuit against the Biden administration to stop the White House from ending Title 42 by May 23.
Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich called Biden’s move “a ridiculously poor decision with a bad intention for border states and American communities across the country.”
Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmit bluntly said Title 42 is “a crucial tool for controlling the influx of illegal aliens at our Southern border.”
Title 42, which former President Trump invoked in 2020 to expel most border crossers in the name of containing the spread of the virus, has nothing to do with COVID-19 anymore.
What a bunch of hypocrites – all of them.
They say ending Title 42 will lead to a flood of border crossers, which in fact may be the case. But what does that have to do with COVID-19?
Even Arizona Democratic Sens. Kyrsten Sinema and Mark Kelly are warning Biden against ending the “border restrictions without a comprehensive plan” to secure the border.
Find another way to control the border
What does that tell you? That once again the border is just a campaign prop in the hunt for votes.
Brnovich will do and say anything about border security in his bid to win the GOP nomination to compete against Kelly in the November general election.
Title 42 is just the latest Republican tool to paint Democrats as “open border” supporters, who’d let cartels and human smuggling flood America with foreigners and drugs.
Fact is both Trump, a Republican, and now Biden have expelled most border crossers under the COVID-19 pretense.
Still, not everyone nor all the drugs are stopped from getting to American consumers.
But that has nothing to do with COVID-19. These politicians better come up with other ways to control the U.S.-Mexico border.
