"Kids in cages" OK under Biden administration?

Has anything substantive really changed with the Biden administration?

Rep. Henry Cuellar recently released sobering pictures of immigrant youths being locked up in detainment facilities under the Biden administration-forcing the president's spokesperson to answer some uncomfortable questions.

One Texas Democrat insider who supported the Biden campaign exclaimed, "I have chosen to not allow myself to get into my feelings about how there are still these detention centers being popped up by this administration because it makes me very, very angry." Meanwhile, Republicans pounced on the news and accused President Joe Biden of overt hypocrisy.

While there are some marked differences between the Trump and Biden immigration policies, the immediate response from the current administration and much of the media has been bizarre.

To be fair, the government has not separated these children from their families-they were already separated from them-nor will it immediately deport them, which you might have expected under Trump.

As the Biden and Trump administrations have shown, they are more than pleased to rule by fiat.

In mere months, Biden has issued 37 executive orders, and in one term, Trump promulgated 220.
