US President Joe Biden was slammed after being spotted on another vacation while the massive border crisis in the United States worsens.
Recently, when asked whether the President would visit the border, he claimed that he wouldn’t as there are “more important things going on” and that “they’re gonna invest billions of dollars in a new enterprise.”
The interview took place following the announcement that Biden would visit Arizona to tour a chip manufacturing plant.
President Biden’s response then sparked outrage with Jobe Dickinson, President of the Border Security Alliance, calling Biden out for immediate response to the fentanyl crisis largely tied to border security.
“During 2022 overdose deaths in AZ rose as high as 41% in year-over-year data published monthly. Illegal fentanyl is the leading cause. How can Pres Biden say while in AZ, he won’t visit the border because “there are more important things going on.” Dickinson lamented.
“Inflation 40 year high, gas highest ever, we’re in a recession, the border is wide open, Fentanyl problem, Petroleum Reserve depleted, the supply-chain is a mess, crime is out of control, Russia in Ukraine, China…
Ok, well I’m off to St. Croix, call me if you need me.” pic.twitter.com/0QeV9JQ7rt— Pat Riot (@Riot2Pat) December 27, 2022
The union representing rank and file Border Patrol agents also responded to President Biden’s comments, stating that “nothing is more important than the safety and security of the American people, but to President Biden, it is an afterthought. With a record number of people and drugs, including deadly fentanyl crossing our border illegally and evading apprehension, it is apparent that Biden cares more about Politics than our children, friends and neighbors.”
“Biden’s record clearly proves that he cares about politics, not about doing his job of protecting American lives.” Judd lamented.
However, despite these remarks, Biden still thinks that the Border Crisis is not part of what he called “important things going on” as recently, he was spotted on another vacation, sparking outrage among netizens and media outlets.
“Does Joe Biden ever work? It seems like he’s always off on vacation. I think the last time we checked, he’d already taken more vacation than any of his recent predecessors at this point in his term in office. He’d spent about 40 percent of his time in office on vacation, we noted in November. That was even before his Thanksgiving vacation. At this point, the question isn’t when he’s on vacation, it’s when he isn’t on vacation,” Red State wrote in its recent opinion article.
Fox’s Peter Doocy also wrote that Biden has “a lot on his plate” but will be dealing with it from “out-of-town.”
“So all the rest of us are counting pennies and trying to deal with inflation that he helped to incite with his wretched policies. But he gets to relax in St. Croix. He went to Nantucket for Thanksgiving, and he went to Kiawah Island, South Carolina in August. Not to mention all the trips to Delaware every weekend, including to his beach house with the half-a-million-dollar fence he’s getting (that our taxpayer dollars are paying for),” Red State lamented.
