At a press conference concerning COVID booster shots, one reporter asked Biden if it was his fault that a makeshift slum of Haitian immigrants formed under a bridge in Del Rio.
“Of course I take responsibility, I’m president,” Biden replied. “To see people treated like they did, horses nearly running them over, people being strapped. It’s outrageous. I promise you those people will pay.”
Biden made short time shifting the blame from his lack of leadership to the men and women in law enforcement sent to clean up his mess. The slum, aptly named Bidenville, is mostly cleaned up now.
NEW: The migrant camp underneath the bridge in Del Rio is rapidly being cleared. Heavy equipment is tearing down the makeshift structures, all migrants are now crowded under the bridge, and the open dirt areas are being completely cleared out. Probably around 3,000 left. @FoxNews pic.twitter.com/o5UHgzwf7A

The media and Democrats have been pushing the false narrative that Horse Patrol Agents were whipping illegals trying to cross the border. Not true…
The photo below shows what was really happening in the moment captured that the media is using to smear the border agents.
US Border Patrol Del Rio Sector posted on Facebook: “Horse Patrol Agents are a time-honored part of BP history. Skilled riders have done their part to secure our borders throughout history. With the help of their 4-legged partners, riders are afforded greater speed, agility, and camaraderie!”
The video below shows the idiotic triggered media and politicians claiming these people were being whipped:
