Many have criticized President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris for their seeming lack of ability to get the border crisis under control.
But as many others have pointed out, the immigration disaster at the southern U.S. border is not incompetence, rather, according to Mark Krikorian, the executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies, has been carried out "on purpose."
According to Breitbart, during a House Oversight Committee hearing last month, Krikorian revealed that he's sure that the Biden-Harris administration purposely got behind the idea of allowing as many migrants in as possible.
He said that even though the border policies are contrary to federal immigration law, Biden and Harris, along with their top Cabinet members, have let their ideologies dictate border policy, on purpose.
Krikorian held nothing back in his assessment of what has really happened on the immigration front since Biden and Harris took office.
"The Biden-Harris record on immigration is the result of neither incompetence nor failure. The largest border crisis in the history of our country, probably the largest such event in human history, began on January 20, 2021, on purpose — not due to incompetence,” he said at the time.
Mark Krikorian says that when it comes to immigration, our hearing title is wrong.
“Don't take this the wrong way, but with regard to immigration, the title of the hearing is a little bit misleading.

He added, "Since that date, there have been more than 10 million encounters of inadmissible aliens at our borders, millions of whom have been and who continue to be unlawfully allowed to enter the United States."
"This did not happen because the Biden-Harris administration and its impeached Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas made mistakes or miscalculations," he continued.
Krikorian went on to explain that there are two different ways of looking at immigration, and noted that the current administration's view is that anyone in the world has a right to come here and that American citizens have no say in the matter.
The immigration expert isn't a fan of using the term "open borders" and prefers instead to call it "unlimited immigration."
Krikorian said, "I would describe the Biden-Harris approach to immigration as one of unlimited immigration that holds that any limits on the levels of immigration are morally indefensible and circumventing those limits by any means is a moral duty."
The Biden-Harris administration will face the music on the immigration issue at the polls in November.
Many believe that most Americans will vote for their safety over ideology regarding that particular topic. Let's hope so.
