Joe Biden's policies have destroyed our borders, impoverished Americans, and empowered terrrorists.
Immigration:
- Starting on Day One, Joe Biden actively worked to open up America's borders. Biden's DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas remarked in 2021, "We have rescinded so many Trump immigration policies, it would take so much time to list them!"
- Biden's first Border Patrol chief, Rodney Scott, said, "We handed them the most secure border in the history of the United States and a roadmap to keep it that way and make it even better. Through 94 executive actions, President Biden completely destroyed border security."
- Biden's administration instituted a policy to stop deporting illegal immigrants if they are simply in the country illegally.
- Biden signed an executive order on his first day in office to halt the construction of the border wall.
- On its first day, the Biden administration annou
nced a policy to halt deportations for 100 days. - Biden reinstated catch-and-release, with Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas admitting to releasing "well more than a million" illegal immigrants a year.
- Biden's lax immigration enforcement has led to over 10 million illegal immigrants crossing during Biden’s tenure.
- Biden set a record for most illegal immigrant crossings in a year. There were 3.2 million illegal immigrants encountered in Fiscal Year 2023. A record. The previous record was set the year prior, in FY 2022.
- In 2019, Obama’s former Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson said if 4,000 people cross the southern border in a day, that’s a “crisis.” There have been at least four days in March with over 7,000 illegal southern border crossings.
- Criminals are taking advantage of Biden's open border. Since October 1, "thousands of illegal immigrants with criminal convictions" have been caught at the border, including ones with "rap sheets for violent crimes such as murder, rape, child molestation, as well as drugs and weapons trafficking."
Economy:
- Since Biden took office in January 2021, prices have risen by an unaffordable 18%, forcing the average American household to spend an additional $11,619 every year just to make ends meet.

Foreign Policy:
- Biden undid President Trump’s decision to place the Iran-backed Houthis on the Foreign Terrorist Organization and Specially Designated Global Terrorist lists.
- The Biden administration relaxed enforcement of President Trump’s maximum pressure sanctions on Iranian oil sales, allowing them access to billions of dollars to fund global terrorism.
