@#1 ... "Some are suggesting that I should just go ahead and try it," Biden said in an interview with Univision. "And if I get shut down by the court, I get shut down by the court." ...

So, Pres Biden seems to want to do an end run around Congress' authority on the immigration problem, an end-run suggested by Republicans as they block Congress from acting.

Why have Republicans suggested to Pres Biden that he has to bypass Congress on this issue?

@#3

Yup.

The House Republicans have shown that they have not a clue how to govern.

They just seem to crave TV face-time on the right-wing networks.

Frankl, I am becoming tired of seeing Rep Taylor-Greene so often.

With so little to say ...

I mean, if she had anything remotely reasonable or constructive to say, I'd be all ears.

But ....

@#5 ... What's Congress going to give him that doesn't already have? ...

The Congressional-approved authority to do so.

Executive orders by Pres Biden are always criticized by Republicans, even when they seem to do what Republicans want.

And it is still up to the Courts to decide whether or not this Executive Order is valid.

So, in response to your current alias' comment...

... What's Congress going to give him that doesn't already have? ...

The authority to do what is needed without an Executive Order.

Why do Republicans in Congress seem to be so afraid of resolving the border security issue?

@#7 ... Biden has only signed 131 EOs in total. ...

@#10

Well, aren't those stats interesting....

@#12 ... My bad... I had last month's count. ...

Not a problem.

It took me a while to find something resembling the current count.

And, I am not even sure what I posted is the "current" count.

@#13 ... Funding. Same thing Trump asked for ...

Great point.

The bi-partisan bill, that fmr Pres trump admits he killed, provides funding for a faster process to judge asylum requests, and more funding for enforcing the security of the border.

So, why did fmr Pres Trump kill it?
