“In the weeks after Joe Biden was elected president, advisers delivered a warning: His approach to immigration could prove disastrous,” the New York Times reports.
“Mr. Biden had pledged to treat unauthorized immigrants more humanely than President Donald Trump, who generated widespread backlash by separating migrant children from their parents.”
“But Mr. Biden was now president-elect, and his positions threatened to drastically increase border crossings, experts advising his transition team warned in a Zoom briefing in the final weeks of 2020…. That jump, they said, could provoke a political crisis.”
