Biden to start "credible fear" screenings at US-Mexico Border.

As reports come this week that the US has hit a milestone of 1 million illegal immigrants crossing the border, the Biden Administration announces their plans to 'help' in the form of what is dubbed "credible fear screenings."

Those would allow an immigrant to say they fear persecution or harm from some entity, should they not get asylum.

Although, associate editor at Breitbart Texas Bob Price says the idea is the opposite of helping the situation.

"It is a complete abuse of the system. It backlogs the courts, and it keeps people who have legitimate asylum claims from being able to have those claims heard," says Price. "It just creates more room for more migrants to come."

In addition, Biden will be providing legal counsel to the migrants, all on the taxpayer dollar. That, alone, is illegal to do.

The move is all part of the facade Biden tries to put up that he is helping.

"Everything the Biden Administration has done has made it easier for people to get into the United States," says Price.

Title 42, which was put in place during COVID to allow border patrol to expel illegal immigrants, is set to expire on May 11th. Combine that alongside the screenings, and you have potential for the perfect, untenable storm.

"There would be upwards of 18,000 migrants per day crossing the border," Price says.

He adds another problem with the program is that migrants are often coached to say exactly what the United States wants to hear.
