'Incoherence' of Biden border crisis strategy may lead to Democrat election losses: Washington Post editorial

President Joe Biden's administration faced a strong rebuke by The Washington Post in a Sunday editorial criticizing it's handling of the crisis at the southern U.S. border and emphasizing the need for a coherent strategy to deal with the record number of migrants attempting to cross into the U.S. illegally.

"In its apparent desperation to fashion an immigration strategy that will impose order on increasingly out-of-control migration, the Biden administration has unleashed a torrent of words and goals untethered to specific policies and timetables," the Post wrote. "Officials have effectively reversed and rolled back some of the Trump administration’s most pernicious policies, but without a clear road map to address the immediate crisis — a decades-high surge in illegal border-crossing — or the long-term challenge driving migration: dysfunction, disorder and decay in Central America." The Post noted that Vice President Kamala Harris laid out a longterm strategy to address the factors in Central America currently driving illegal immigration, but that it was missing an actual plan for action. It added her "convoluted messaging" telling migrants not to attempt the journey to the U.S., while also scrapping or relaxing measures to dissuade the journey, had been a "failure."
