The Biden Admin are proving they don’t want to hear solutions or that things are only going to be getting worse at the border. It seems pretty apparent that the border crisis is exactly what they want. So when Panamanian Government Official Foreign Minister Erika Mouynes warned the Biden Admin that a wave of 60k Haitians is heading our way she was irritated when they were like ‘And?’
“Panama foreign minister Erika Mouynes expressed frustration to Axios that the Biden administration seemed caught off guard by the Haitian migrant crisis because “we sounded the alarm when we should have.”
Why it matters: The worst may still be coming. Mouynes said there are as many as 60,000 migrants — mostly Haitian — poised to make their way north to the U.S.-Mexico border.
- Panama is expecting more migrants to cross through the dangerous jungles of the Darién Gap this month than in all of 2019 — nearly 27,000, according to Panamanian government estimates provided to Axios.
- Mouynes is calling on the U.S. to help enforce a plan coordinated with countries in the region, saying, ultimately, “Let’s recognize that they all are heading toward the U.S.”
- The foreign minister wrapped up meetings Monday and Tuesday in Washington with Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and members of Congress, among others.
Mouynes expressed her exasperation to Axios after spending months warning leaders across the hemisphere of the impeding Haitian wave.
By the numbers: More than 85,000 migrants have passed through Panama since January — most of them Haitians.
- Roughly 20,000 to 25,000 Haitians have already made the trek to the U.S.-Mexico border, with most being allowed to enter the United States.
- Beyond those already admitted or deported back to Haiti, another 60,000 are most likely still on their way north, the minister said.”
If Mouynes really wanted to do us a solid she would prevent the migrants from going any further or find a way to delegate them elsewhere. But seeing as the Dems are doing nothing to stop the border crisis, it wouldn’t surprise me if the Biden Admin gave countries south of the border a message like ‘send them up.’
