The Wall Street Journal reported on Oct. 28 that the Biden administration was considering compensating families who were separated at the border during the Trump administration up to $450,000 per person. This was to be done in consideration for the trauma they endured after they were separated after breaking the law and illegally entering the country.
However, just a day ago, Biden seemed to nix the idea, calling such reports “garbage.” He said it was “not gonna happen.” But then the ACLU started saying in public that Biden doesn’t know what he is talking about.
“President Biden may not have been fully briefed about the actions of his very own Justice Department as it carefully deliberated and considered the crimes committed against thousands of families separated from their children as an intentional governmental policy,” said Anthony Romero, ACLU executive director. Did he know something Biden didn’t?
White House principal deputy press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre also contradicted Biden on Nov. 3, saying that the president is “perfectly comfortable” with giving money to the families who broke the law by coming into the country illegally.
So … clearly Biden is not in charge of his own administration. He is not the acting president who makes the decisions.
So who is?
Either the ACLU is dictating Biden administration policy, or Biden doesn’t remember his own decisions. Neither of those is a good look for Biden, or, quite frankly, for the United States.
The more the truth comes out about this issue, the more chaotic and disorganized Biden’s White House appears. So who really is running the country? It sure doesn’t look like it’s Biden.
