‘Meet the Press’ asks Mayorkas if he assumes responsibility for the border crisis, and this is his response

Despite narrowly escaping impeachment last week, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas still refuses to accept any of the blame for America’s border crisis.

Dave Rubin plays the clip of Mayorkas telling “Meet the Press’” Kristen Welker why the Biden administration is innocent.

“No doubt there is gridlock on Congress, but do you bear responsibility for what is happening at the border?” asked Welker, adding that even “the president himself” has called the issue “a crisis.”

“It certainly is a crisis, and, well, we don’t bear responsibility for a broken system,” Mayorkas responded. “We’re doing a tremendous amount within that broken system.”

“It’s not his fault; it's just a broken system,” mocks Dave, adding that “just weeks ago they were telling us that the system isn't broken and it's just these crazy right-wingers on YouTube that are making a big deal about this.”

Once enough people started talking about the undeniable border crisis, however, the administration was forced to respond. But of course its response is not to enforce the border laws that already exist but rather to pass a new bill that only furthers its agenda, especially overseas in Ukraine and Gaza.

“The White House is saying, ‘If you don't pass the bill that we want’ – which by the way we don't even need the bill in the first place because we already do have laws as it relates to the border … ’then we will have ICE stop doing its job,’” criticizes Dave.

“That is mafia-style tactics.”
