A MESS – AT 9:32 P.M. ET:  I have never seen a new presidential administration as confused, and as deceptive, as this one.  From the New York Post: 

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki on Monday clarified that Vice President Kamala Harris isn’t in charge of handling the migrant surge at the US-Mexico border and that her role only pertains to the “root causes” of the crisis.

Psaki made the clarification during her daily press briefing after she was asked about an internal Biden administration report projecting record numbers of unaccompanied minors for another six months.

“The vice president of the United States will be helping lead that effort, specifically the root causes —not the border, there’s some confusion over that,” Psaki said.

Yeah, I'd say so.

Biden last week tapped Harris to lead diplomatic efforts to stem the flow of migrants from Central America.

Psaki dodged a question on the document reported on by Axios projecting that the number of minors could soar to 26,000 for the month of September, up from about 16,000 this month and an estimated 22,000-25,000 in May.

“What we’re working to do is put in place steps and actions to help address the situation at the border, including, of course, expediting processing and opening up additional shelters, but also re-instituting policies like the Central American minors program to encourage young people to apply in their country and not make that treacherous journey,” Psaki said.

“We were also in a circumstance where we are digging out of a broken system over the past four years — not just the inhumane policies, but the fact that there were never efforts put in place to look for us and seek shelters where these children could be safely and humanely housed.”

COMMENT:  But once again we see what is making it so easy for this new crowd to deceive, to blunder, to destroy – the fact that the media establishment will protect them, as it protected Barack Obama (come to save us).  We are getting a civics lesson in the role of a free press, and how that role has been distorted by the "journalists" now in control. 

This post leads into the one just below.
