#Trump repeated his claim that MVP #KamalaHarris acted as a #BorderCzar during the Biden admin & that “essentially, she never went to the border” during her time as VP.
2X FALSE
1. Harris did go to the border as VP, in Texas in mid-2021; many Republicans had criticized Harris prior to the visit for not having gone, & some later argued that she didn’t go frequently enough, but the recurring claim that she “never went” has not been true for >3 yrs.
2. #Harris was never made #Biden’s #BorderCzar, a label the WH has always emphasized is inaccurate. In reality, Biden gave Harris a more limited #immigration-related assignment in 2021, asking her to lead diplomacy w/ ElSalvador, Guatemala & Honduras in an attempt to address the conditions that prompted their citizens to try to migrate to the US.
