DHS: there's no border crisis, and whatever it is, it's Trump's fault

Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street and building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the party is always right.

There is no "crisis" on the United States' southern border as thousands of migrants seek to enter the country, according to Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, but he's urging people to wait before traveling to the U.S. while the Biden administration tries to iron out its immigration plan.

"We are working around the clock to replace the cruelty of the last administration with an orderly, humane and safe immigration process. It is hard and it will take time", Mayorkas told reporters Monday.

"The men and women of the Department of Homeland Security are working around the clock, seven days a week, to ensure that we do not have a crisis at the border, that we manage the challenge as acute as the challenge is", he said.

The number of unaccompanied minors crossing the border has spiked significantly in recent weeks and is projected to grow by the thousands in the coming months, Mayorkas acknowledged. But he urged those seeking to come to the United States to be patient.

"We are not saying don't come", he said. "We are saying don't come now, because we will be able to deliver a safe and orderly process for them as quickly as possible".

Mayorkas blamed the Trump administration's immigration policies for the growing influx of migrants that has overwhelmed the system.

"The prior administration dismantled our immigration system in its entirety", Mayorkas said. "Quite frankly, the entire system was gutted".
