#BREAKING: Jen Psaki announces that horses will now be BANNED from being used in Del Rio by Border Patrol agents, citing the "horrible and horrific" use of them to prevent Haitian illegal immigrants from crossing into the U.S.
So, to recap, the Biden administration has announced that horses are now racist!
When the left and right are in my mentions saying banning horses is dumb (albeit for very different reasons), you know it's bad.

DOOCY TIME: "There are 15,000 migrants under the Del Rio bridge Saturday. If you add up the ones that you say were expelled or released, it's less than 5,000. Say there's 5,000 that are still left. Where is everybody else?"

Psaki: "I'm happy to get you a more fruitful rundown."
Short clip here, but Doocy masterfully gets Psaki to subtly admit that people placed on the path toward "removal proceedings"....doesn't actually mean anything.
Doocy 🔥🔥: "[M]ost of these people...are being put on either buses from Del Rio to El Paso and Laredo or being flown to Tucson, with no Covid tested -- testing unless they show symptoms. How is that helping anybody stop the spread?"

Psaki: "Again, we have a protocol...."

Yamiche Alcindor of taxpayer-funded PBS demands President Biden use "his bully pulpit...to speak up forcefully" for Haitian illegal immigrants and against the Border Patrol for how they've "treat[ed]" them.
PBS's Yamiche Alcindor: "These are images that are traumatizing Haitian Americans that he promised to treat respectfully & with humanity. Why isn't the President telling people himself these images that people say look like slavery are wrong?"
Alcindor: "Does the President believe anything in this letter that Daniel Foote is saying rings true, has some sort of point that he -- that he believes is -- is true" that the Biden administration has been "inhumane" toward Haitian illegal immigrants?

.@BillFOXLA with a BRUTAL fact-check: “That was an interesting press conference...[Psaki] doesn't believe the migrants down here intend to stay for a long time. That’s news to these folks...They are not traveling from halfway around the world to go on a little camping trip.”
.@BillFOXLA: The WH “made it sound like all these people were going to be sent back to Haiti, don't come here b/c you're not going to get in...That is just not true. Under this administration, catch & release has been happening ever since the Biden administration came in[.]”
.@BillFOXLA: “The bottom line here is...when you're actually on the ground talking with the people dealing with this, talking to the people showing up here, you will understand...The word is out right now that they believe, under this administration, they have a chance to stay.”

DOOCY TIME: "You're telling us that the DHS chief has the most recent numbers about how many of these Haitians....have been sent back and how many have been released into the U.S. The DHS chief is telling us he doesn't know, so who else can we ask?"
Doocy: “Is this an issue of not knowing or is this an issue of a lot more people are being released into the U.S. then are being sent out?”

Psaki: “That is certainly not the issue.”
Doocy: “Just because you keep using Title 42 to defend this administration's immigration policies, that is a Trump-era regulation. You guys came in saying that the Trump-era immigration policy was very inhumane.”

Psaki: "Title 42 is not an immigration policy."

DOOCY TIME: "You said last month, 'our over the horizon capacity can work & has worked in going after ISIS...But you guys didn't kill people who went after our troops. You killed 10 civilian including 7 children. So, does [Biden] think the over the horizon strikes can work?"
Doocy: "Some of the victims relatives are saying they want to be relocated here. Is that something that the administration's going to help them do?"

Psaki: "I am not aware of that request or that ask. I'm happy to certainly speak to our national securities team."
Doocy 🔥🔥: Is somebody asking the foreign nationals who are walking into del Rio, Texas and setting up camps...for proof of vaccination or a negative Covid test?...If somebody walks into the country, right across the river, does somebody ask them to see their vaccination card?"

AMAZING -- Since the Biden administration has kicked @BillFoxLA and his team out from flying Fox News's drones along the U.S./Mexico border in Del Rio, TX, *local* law enforcement decided to get him a helicopter to hop in and go check things out to continue reporting.
.@BillFOXLA Melugin: "This is a wild situation. We reported earlier that the FAA grounded our Fox News drones...Well, the troopers with Texas DPS are kind enough to let us go up in their helicopter...Look at the mass of people...It looks like there's a water park down there."
.@BillFOXLA on what Joe Biden DOESN'T want you to see: Border Patrol sources "tell me that this situation is 'out-of-control.' They need help. They say there aren't even enough porta-potties or food or anything...It looks like a large refugee camp."
