As I said...JB followed existing Immigration Law during his administration...Note that Dems have

Always agreed that New Laws were/are required...and they stepped forward with that 2024 Bill which would dramatically reduce the number of undocumented immigrants...AND...funded not just 750 more CBP Officers to sharply reduce "Getaways", which DJT asked for in 2019...but 1,500 more CBP Officers...and more ICE Officers...etc., etc.

Here's the substantiation for Biden following existing Immigration laws...Again, the shrill cry of "Open Borders" is nothing but a MAGA Trope for the purpose of duping those who won't take the time to research anything on their own...case in point...

AI Overview

The Biden administration operated within the framework of existing statutory law, though several of its major executive actions, enforcement priorities, and asylum restrictions were challenged and repeatedly blocked or struck down by federal courts.

Major Legal Actions and Court Rulings

• Enforcement Priorities (United States v. Texas): The Biden administration issued guidelines directing ICE agents to focus enforcement on national security, public safety, and border threats rather than arresting all undocumented immigrants. While lower courts blocked the policy, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 8–1 in June 2023 that the states challenging the guidance lacked legal standing to dictate executive enforcement discretion.
• Migrant Protection Protocols (Biden v. Texas): The administration attempted to terminate the Trump-era "Remain in Mexico" policy. In June 2022, the Supreme Court ruled 5–4 that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) possessed the statutory authority under the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) to end the program.
• Asylum Restrictions and CBP One: Federal courts struck down aspects of the administration's sweeping 2024 asylum limits and border restrictions (such as Las Americas Immigrant Advocacy Center v. DHS), ruling that specific bars on asylum eligibility and departures from statutory fear-screening procedures violated the INA and the Administrative Procedure Act (APA).
• Parole-in-Place (Keeping Families Together): A federal district judge in Texas struck down the administration’s parole-in-place program designed to offer legal status and a path to citizenship for undocumented spouses of U.S. citizens, ruling that DHS misused its statutory parole authority
