The White House sidestepped a question about why it continues to let untested and unvaccinated illegal immigrants into the United States while tennis star Novak Djokovic is not allowed to enter to play in this year's U.S. Open.

Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy questioned the Biden administration about the paradox during Monday's news briefing.

"How come migrants are allowed to come into this country unvaccinated, but world-class tennis players are not?" he asked White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre.

"The U.S. government cannot discuss the details of individual visa cases. Due to privacy reasons, the U.S. also does not comment on medical information of individual travelers as it relates to this tennis player," she replied.

"Somebody unvaccinated comes over on a plane, you say that's not OK. Somebody walks into Texas or Arizona unvaccinated, they're allowed to stay?"

"That's not how it works. ... It's not like someone walks over," she replied.

"That's exactly what is happening," Doocy responded. "Thousands of people are walking in a day. Some of them turn themselves over. Some of them are caught. Tens of thousands a week are not. That is what is happening."

Does ANYONE other than Doocy EVER ask a single pertinent question of this administration?

Remember how the democrats hated on her, said she was just a Trump stooge? And she had a binder every day full of facts she would cite and feed their bulls**t right back to them? And that was racist for telling the truth?

Now Karine Jean Claud Van Dam gets up and talks in circles and they celebrate. Utter idiocy and zero facts, just keeps saying it until CNN takes it like a 14" dick in their throat and pretends it's totes normal.

Smart move putting a black female in this spot.

Now, every time a lie is pointed out, all they have to do is say "racism", and the "debate" ends.

They are two different things.

The democrats see the migrants as potential voters and slaves for their use. They know the tennis player currently does not plan to be a voter in the US and they don’t think they can enslave him.

But they can demand citizens provide proof of vaccinations?

The WH Spox was asked about unvaxed untested border folks.

It has come out that Biden knows damned well a lot are covid positive.

Just this alone calls for Biden to be removed after a quick impeachment concerning nat sec.
