White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre's claim that illegal immigrants aren’t just “walking across” the southern border has sparked anger and shock from Border Patrol agents — who witness hundreds of migrants flooding across the border every single day.
“How out of touch can this administration possibly be?” one agent told Fox News. “Well, I guess this is a new level.”
Jean-Pierre was asked on Monday why migrants are allowed to illegally enter the U.S. without being vaccinated for COVID-19 but an unvaccinated foreign national traveling on a plane is not.
