    Joe passes the ball to Harris, Harris is tackled by President Alejandro Giammattei.

    VP Harris visits Guatemala -- She hopes to tackle human trafficking and smuggling in Guatemala, a senior U.S. official said, as Vice President Kamala Harris visits the region to try to lower migration from Central America’s Northern Triangle countries.

    Harris staff says climate, economy among the 'main drivers' of the migration problem. However, Guatemala's president blames the US, mainly Joe Biden for his carless invitation.

    "Vice President Kamala Harris’ staff on Sunday insisted that the "main drivers" of the migrant surge to the southern border are climate and the economy — as Harris arrived in Guatemala and after the Guatemalan president blamed the change in U.S. administrations for the crisis."   https://www.foxnews.com/politics/harris … esident-us

    President Alejandro Giammattei --"I believe that in the first few weeks of the Biden administration, messages were confusing. They were compassionate messages that were understood by people in our country, especially the coyotes, to tell families, ‘We’ll take the children,'” President Alejandro Giammattei said Tuesday during an interview on MSNBC.

    “And children can go, and once children are there, they will call their parents,” he continued.

    He said the messages were confusing “not because of the way they were communicated but because of the way they were translated here.”

    President Alejandro Giammattei "What I can say is that no government, no matter how large or strong, can have that gigantic apparatus that would be required to address 30 or 40,000 people in detention centers and have all of them in a status where they are claiming refuge. As we explained, many of these issues can be corrected, but we have to work together,”

    Biden and his handlers certainly are causing some horrific problems. He spouts off at the mouth, then transfers his blunder to Harris... What a team

    Now Trump was certainly known for his straightforward comments that tended to shock much of the nation. But, Joe, his blunders are causing some very big problems for America.

    Step right up buy a ticket to his one-man show Carnival Joe From Kokomo...

    Thoughts...

    My own thoughts lead me to believe this administration will offer up tons of political fodder. Not the fodder that will have one saying, I can't believe he said that -- No it will be, can you believe he did what he did.

      As it concerns illegal immigration of all types, I blame no one but our government for the way things are handled. Clinton, Bush, Obama, Trump, and now Biden have only added to the problems we are facing at the border, stirring more vitriol into the melting pot rather than taking rational, tangible steps to curb the issues our country faces.

      When a president or politician alike stops virtue-signaling and pandering to their party and actually takes proper steps to streamline the immigration process, I'll actually have the ability to cast support to one side or another. However, as things stand now, it is a purely partisan and agenda-driven issue, and neither party nor the agendas presented help myself, my country, nor those suffering in other countries who get left out because someone here illegally received an opportunity they did not seek through proper channels.

      Then we have the issue of the proper channels encouraging illegal immigration to begin with... it's a loop of pointless discussion. Give me a blank check and the privilege to alter our immigration laws and processes and the problem will be solved in ten years with tangible progress each month, but that could also be said for anyone else, and the system requires we play ball with every shifty, evil power in the world; it just isn't ideal.

      What a mess.

        OMG yes... I so agree.

        Most other countries in the world don't have these problems. I own in Mexico, yet you would not believe how hard it would be for me to become a citizen. Most countries have laws, and following them.

        Yes, a hot mess... One that is mainly contributed to by our own appointed Government --- Go figure.

          Its all meaningless hype and hoopla.

          The reasons are simple and were spelled out years ago.

          As the video stated ... 244 million are on the move.

          Of course, Trump tried to deny these efforts, his actions have since been reversed by the Biden administration.

          The MSM narrative they are now saying about mis-communication and misunderstanding and it not being intentional... well... that is believable...

          Unless you are one who pays attention to the Admin's policy, UN policy, the Global Compact on Migration, etc. ... then you might not be so inclined to believe the MSM narrative of BS.
