Item: The left-wing New York Times, in its May 25 print issue, reported: “House Democrats, who led an angry charge against the Trump administration’s treatment of migrant children, have taken a much quieter tack since concerns began emerging about conditions at some of the emergency shelters set up by the Biden administration to deal with minors at the southern border.”
Democrats, according to the Times, “say the contrast is for good reason: former President Donald J. Trump’s immigration policies were deliberately cruel, devised as a deterrent to would-be migrants, while the Biden administration is trying hard to deal with a bad hand.”
Item: Illegal border-crossers are not just from Mexico and Central America, notes the New York Times — which seems to have invented a new category not recognized by the law: “pandemic refugees.” In a May 16 piece (“From India, Brazil and Beyond: Pandemic Refugees at the Border”), the Times said: “Fleeing virus-devastated economies, migrants are traveling long distances to reach the United States and then walking through gaps in the border wall.”
