Biden says he’s exploring whether he has power to shut border

The Turnip everybody!
President Biden said Tuesday that the administration is weighing whether he has the sole power to close the southern border with Mexico should the need arise.
“We’re examining whether or not I have that power,” Biden said in an interview with Univision’s Enrique Acevedo, shared Tuesday, referencing a potential need for congressional action.
“When the border has over … 5,000 people a day trying to cross the border because you can’t manage it, slow it up. There’s no guarantee that I have that power all by myself without legislation,” he continued. “And some have suggested I should just go ahead and try it. And if I get shut down by the court, I get shut down by the court.”
“But we’re trying to … work through that right now,” the president added.

Convenient, right as election season is in full swing but after the damage is done. Why can’t he, I dunno, just enforce the laws on the books?

Did ANYONE even question his statement?
Did the man ever take any kind of civics class?
This is just beyond stupidity.

Just as things are gearing up in earnest for November no less.
Purely coincidental timing no doubt.

Thinks he has the power to forgive debt and a whole host of other things BUT doesn't think he has the power to control the border...

It is a fricking invasion and yes the President of the United States has power to stave off an invasion.

Gotta hand it to him. He does understand so many US citizens are very ignorant.

Absolutely not! How can you expect free and honest media to do such things in an election year?

And then after the election.. he will open it right back up!

Democrats play the same games every year and their base is none the wiser. They go full lefty radical with their policies for 3 years, life gets worse for everyone, and then right before election season they moderate towards the center and put a full PR campaign on and their base laps it up and votes for the same stupid pattern to repeat.
All GOP is racist white supremacist and you have to vote for us or the country disintegrates!

I'd start by revoking every reversal of Trump's immigration EOs that his handlers signed on DAY ONE OF HIS ILLEGITIMATE USURPATION.

If we had a true leader in the house they would be voting on a bill to shut down the border ASAP . Make the democrats in the senate vote it down .
