Biden’s Former HHS Sec. Becerra Tries to Blame Trump for Biden’s Border Crisis

‘I wish we would have been more aggressive in trying to process those who are trying to come into the country and claim asylum’

EXCERPT:

BECERRA: “I wish we would have been more aggressive in trying to process those who are trying to come into the country and claim asylum. We could have gotten through those cases a lot faster if we had treated the asylum process and these applications for asylum the way we treated COVID, where we surged resources to attack this, instead of allowing the asylum process to bulge out of proportion in the number of people who were seeking their hearings, because by law you have to provide them with a hearing, we could have addressed this much faster. I ended up having to deal with the situation with the number of kids that were unaccompanied by an adult who crossed over the border, and we had to manage a situation where we inherited from the Trump administration a dismantled system to care for these kids."
