Most Americans blame President Biden for the current crisis facing our borders. Since Inauguration Day thousands upon thousands of migrant caravans have been flooding the border quickly overwhelming immigration resources and employees. The Biden administration and Democrats would repeatedly do what they do best, blame Trump for their failures and shortcomings.

However, former President George Bush says that neither president is to blame for the border crisis and instead Americans should be pointing their fury at Congress.

Fox News reports:

“And, the truth of the matter is, the system is broken because Congress has failed to act.”

But Bush added that the “people who are guilty, really guilty, are the people who exploit human misery, and charge money to desperate people, and bring them to the border with no plan to get them into the country.”

“What you’re seeing is a border that reflects a broken system, and there needs to be changes,” he continued. “There need to be changes in work visas, so people don’t have to sneak in to do work that needs to be done in America; there need to be changes in the asylum system to be able to adjudicate cases quickly.”

“I don’t think Congress is going to be able to get it all done with one comprehensive bill. I think there needs to be a piecemeal approach so that people can gain confidence in the ability to work with the other side,” Bush explained.

Bush went on to explain he thinks the Biden administration should begin by reforming Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, which Biden re-implemented. The former president also pointed to reforming workers programs primarily with low-skilled workers.



    1. GWB just 1/3 right on that, voter fraud Biden should take another 2/3 blame for that crisis HE THE ONE STOP EVERYTHING that working on America border on his day#1, SON OF THE @#$%^&

      1. Comprehensive reform by the Congress is needed, but Biden is responsible for the current crisis situation. President Trump resolved the problem in the only way that was workable in compliance with current law, and Biden dismantled that solution.

        1. Richard Hennessy
          Now since Trump violated the Immigration laws of this USA under a completely false accusation of National Security, when there was no actual proof of any threat to National Security, and sending the ones applying for asylum back to Mexico to wait, for their court date, which is contrary to the immigration laws written by Congress. Now Biden has said from day one he will not interfer in the operations of the Departments like the Constitution says he should not, and all Immigration laws of this USA are being followed to the letter. The USA has some of the harshest Immigration Laws in the Free World where we deport people who are living active peaceful lives and have not committed a felony, where no other country in the Free World does that, our closest neighbor has over 1 MILLION Americans who live and work in Mexico most known to the authorities, who do nothing about it. Then there is the ex service members who live illegally in countries all over the World who do not get deported unless they commit a serious crime, which would be compared to a felony in this USA.
          According to the Pew report the majority of those who are against immigrants are also against anyone other than WHITE, having the same rights.

        2. Everything to some extent was getting better while PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS IN OFFICE!!! After this COMMUNIST got shoved in by damocraps and Congress allowing this to happen because of course they have been paid off as well. Everything took a drastic turn south . supreme court judges governors senators are all to blame and the entire DAMOCRAP PARTY. And if these idiots would have left PUR PRESIDENT TRUMP Alone and stopped all this foney bit-h bickering PEEELOUSI h Hillary oblama Susan rice sander Schumer. Things would have been much better. DAMOCRAPS are mad because their evil bull stuff agenda was slowed down. Which was the best thing that could have ever happened. A complete overhaul is needed throughout our political system . And anyone that runs for a political office that don’t work entirely for the people , and not stuffing their own pockets should be executed. Now. When intrusion on our constitution and rights started by a communist in our country . and biden is NOT A president OUR FREE COUNTRY’S LAWS DONT EXESIT ANYMORE . OUR LAWS FOR THE MOST PART OF A COMMUNIST FASHION AMERICANS SHOULD NOT LISTEN TO ANYTHING THESE COMMUNIST HAS TO SAY IN OUR COUNTRY. THIS IS OUR COUNTRY “””NOT COMMIE LAND. “”” THE FBI HAS BEEN PAID OFF CIA AND ALL MEMBERS OF CONGRESS THAT HAS ALLOWED THIS TO HAPPEN. AND SHOULD BE TOTALLY IGNORED AND DEFEND YOURSELVES AT ALL COSTS.

      2. It ain’t Biden cause if a little girl AOC can force Biden into something, it’s not a man who is running the country it is the women, squad, Pelosi, Harris, even Dr. Biden, except the one man Obama. The democrates are killing our country, they don’t care they have money and a way out of paying the high taxes that we have to pay..Lord have mercy on us and our land<><

      3. Yes, you’re right. Starts at the top. Congress didn’t order border wall removed, but rather Biden did, and undid the entire process Donald JTrump put in place at the borders…period!

    2. Alzheimer’s is setting in. The president always is the one to make the final decision. Congress and the senate are controled by the DEMOASS’S and answer to OBIDEN. THESE ARE THE FACTS so don’t only blame congress.

    1. GWB tried to reform the law during his Presidency, but Democrats demanded unrealistic and destructive changes in policy and Republicans like McCain and Rubio capitulated and supported these proposed changes. Consequently, there was no way the bill could be passed and it predictably failed,

  1. Is Trump responsible for Biden’s border crisis??? Are you kidding?? How stupid do Globalists think we are!!???
    For 4 years President Trump got attacked for tough policy innovations addressing the border crisis. He fought to BUILD THE WALL and championed the incredibly successful “stay in Mexico” policy for asylum seekers. Trump deployed the U.S military & coordinated with Mexico’s President to deploy its own soldiers on its own northern and southern borders. That got the problem under control.

    1. and he had to do it thru executive order as no dems would approve of anything he did!he had the border under control until bribem got into office!

  2. How about placing some of the blame on the leaders of the countries they left behind? If their home lands were being run properly, these people would have as much, if not more opportunities there, where their families and history are. But no, the leaders, (used Loosely),only use the lands and population, to enrich them selves ,and other criminals.
    People don’t jump into a raging river, of unknown depth,and current, unless the boat they occupied was not taking on water.

    1. Other countries are not to blame for the dangerous elements in our current laws, and Democrats won’t accept reasonable changes. Their interest is solely in future Democrat votes and increased political power.

    2. Trump was working with those leaders also. Let’s cutoff trade with China and start getting stuff made or partially made in Mexico, Honduras, and other countries in need of economic stability.

      1. Agree. Let us spend our money closer to home. There is do much corruption south of the border doubt that’s the answer. Would be better than China.

  3. I would like to add my $ .10. I think that the Congress should have only single line item bills. The current practice just encourages so much pork that division is out of control! So much is hidden and added on to a bill that is needed it is unreal. When there are hundreds of pages etc. it appears that for the most part it is not read or understood. This is so very wrong. Therefore to vote on something good for the country they must past a bunch of nonsense that is partisan to help the USA. How does that make sense. LINE ITEMS only.

  4. The system may be broken, but the people in power now want this open border and let them all in. Sorry, Trump was made to look like the bad guy and he wasn’t “humanitarian”, and he was racist, yet this president stops the wall from being finished and INVITES millions to come to this country for a free ride. During a so called pandemic. Never has there been a situation at the border in such crisis. It’s a huge mess and the ones that made it this bad are ignoring the situation. It’s escalating every day. Whose fault really, that this all started on 1/20/21??
    Kamala is totally useless except to follow Biden around like a little puppy dog, waiting to get her treat when he drops dead. Folks that will be the day when we all go into the shitter at warp speed. And you think it can’t get any worse…

    1. You would think that Bush would tell the truth about the boarder. It is the fault of the Biden administration. Biden invited the whole world to come to America and walk right in. Terrorists and Illegals. Shut the boarder down.

  5. This is Michelle Obama’s friend, need I say more? He was and is as worthless as New World Order Obama was and is. He too is a Globalist, which is far worst than a communist their goal to end our sovereignty as a nation. The Congressional majority is illegal their sole purpose is to totally destroy the republic millions fought and either were injured or died to preserve. We have no sovereignty without borders, anyone without documents can walk in from anywhere and get welfare for being here illegally. The purpose of forced upon us illegal immigration is more illegal mail in voters for the dictatorship that was forced upon us. Many nations face threats, most from foreign foes, our nation was given illegally a cancer, a deadly cancer that works to enslave us in poverty and under New World Order Global Communism by the UN. Unconstitutional laws, deeds like the last impeachment, as well as laws that nullify federal law which is treason is allowed. Now our own government was turned into a weapon to hurt our people unless the dictatorship has absolute total power. We are slaves, we have no say, they took away free elections, they took away national sovereignty, they gave us additional debt by open borders, they weakened our military by putting a lunatic in charge, federal cabinet chiefs weaponized their agencies to hurt critics, not help people. We are in deep shit, they took away lost our most basic freedoms. Communist style propaganda one party news and entertainment is 97% of all information fed us. Are living in North Korea . A government that decided our children must be taught to hate what millions gave their lives or limes to preserve. Never has such evil enslaved by force a once free people. After four years of (federal) investigations and court hearings at our expense that continue against Trump, we no longer a free people are denied the same right?

  6. Bush had his chance for 8 years to do something. Lost all respect for him when I realized he is part of the NWO…. that’s New World Order, for those of you in Rio Linda.
    ( Rush saying.. I don’t plagiarize!)🇺🇸

  7. I think President Bush is wrong. Biden allowed the thousand of illegals in and he had help. Who? These people just didn’t, all of a sudden, decide to slip in the U.S. Why allowing so may? Obviously the next step is to make them citizens who will vote Democrat.

  8. GWB should keep his mouth shut as he did for 8 years of the Kenyan resident in the WH.
    It totally pains me to say how I regret how hard I worked to get him reelected. I learned my lesson.
    George, go back to working on your farm and driving your pickup truck.

  9. MODERATORS, YOU’RE BACK TO HOLDING MY POSTS????? WHY????
    WHAT DID I SAY THAT GOT YOU TRIGGERED?
    RELEASE MY COMMENT NOW!!!

  10. Bush always was stupid, and one of the worst Rep. Presidents ever. The failure to enforce current law is the problem!

    1. Bush be came #2 worst stupid president! Biden has surpassed Bush Ten-Fold, he is now the worst stupid president!! He is not our duly elected president, he is a fraud!! Congress needs to right the wrong, and put our true duly elected President Trump BACK IN THE WHITE HOUSE, Now So He Can Again Undo The Damage The Socialist Communist Party Has Done!! Pray God Will Step In Soon And Totally DRAIN Out The SWAMP!! AMEN!! PRAISE GOD!!

    1. Right Duane, OBiden is very much at fault, it’s happening on his watch. Joe shouldn’t have changed what Trump had successfully proposed and installed.

  11. There can’t be a reform of immigration law as long as Democrats are able to block any reasonable policy change. They demand too much for illegal aliens in any negotiation because they want only amnesty with no conditions and a quick path to citizenship so they can get votes from these undocumented (illegal) Democrats.

  12. I agree there is no “comprehensive” immigration bill that will solve the problems and that is the problem with congress. The solution must be piecemeal and it has to start with border security. Then, improved immigration policies can be implemented. Trump was absolutely correct by starting with the wall. This leaves border security people free to do their job.

  13. I completely agree that Congress should have acted years ago. However the current crisis is squarely on Biden’s feeble shoulders.

  14. Sorry you are not right Biden open borders to make money just like his son. all Bidens should be in Jail. but God will take them his way. Thanks to the Lord and Trump.

  15. Bush 43 continues to chip away at his own legacy. And for what? His feelings were hurt when Trump humiliated and smashed Jeb in the ’16 primary. Seems 43 was so angry it clouded his judgement. His legacy already was badly stained by his horrible handling of illegal alien trafficking. Now he supports an coprolitic marionette whose immigration policy is worse than at any period in U.S. history.

  16. bush needs to keep his mouth shut when he does not know what he’s talking about Trump had the problem under control until Biden came along

    1. That is a million percent true!
      The current peeps in charge want this fiasco to harden our lives.

      1. They don’t care what it hurts or who as long as they get the vote legalizing them as fast as they can and giving them everything to ensure the dumbrat vote . They are killing America as fast as they can and that ppl is soreasses plan always was

  17. ILLIGIT JOE UNDID EVERYTHING THAT WAS WORKING, WHICH WAS INSTITUTED BY PRESIDENT TRUMP! ALL THEY NEED TO DO IS PUT $1,000 BOUNTY’S ON THE SCALPS OF ANYONE PERCEIVED TO BE, AN ILLEGAL ALIEN, SMUGGLER, GANG MEMBER, TERRORIST, OR RIOTER AND THESE PROBLEMS WOULD BE SOLVED! THE RECIDIVISM RATE WOULD BE ZERO FOR THOSE THAT HAD BEEN SCALPED! ALLOW CITIZENS TO GO ON PATROL!

  18. Take out the illegals from our country! They can comelike the legal ones have ! Why should they be outlaws??? This biden administration is efdup

  19. I guess blaming other people for what’s screwed up in our country is the only thing politicians know how to do? Why not just fix it or actually do your freaking job ? Thanks for everything that is wrong in America you freaking corrupt bunch of morons

  20. Before we pass one more new law, we need to ENFORCE the current laws. That means CLOSE the border and start processing those who LEGALLY are in line to become citizens. Send the ILLEGALS back to where they came from and have them apply legally!

  21. It blows me away that our current and former leaders address our constitution as broken. The only way it’s “broken” is by not enforcing the existing laws. We don’t need more legislation. And we don’t have the time for debates on it.

  22. Those people are here, and Joe Biden is not going to send them back…. so, what do we do now? First they need to learn English, and at the same time earning their way by cleaning up trash beside all the roadways (we have too many litterbugs in this country and if the shoe fits, wear it). Then, while they are earning their way by picking up trash, teach them a ‘trade’ so that they can become taxpayers. REQUIRE them to go to night school to learn a trade. If this is done, they will be well on their way to becoming the proper kind of citizen. Otherwise we taxpayers will be burdened with more taxes to keep them all on welfare. So…. which do you prefer?

  23. Who cares what this RINO thinks? He fooled so many conservatives including me. I worked on his re-election campaign leaving my family, traveling and doing legal work for this fraud. HUGE disappointment in his treatment of President Trump.
    gwb is dead to me.

  24. Democrats want more votes-why they are letting illegals in America-even w/o testing them for any diseases they bring in to America

    1. They’re pushing in the variant. Oregon’s virus uptick keeps going up because they’re allowing illegals all the time.

  25. Hey Ex- President Bush, quit the lollygagging and blame the people who have turned our border into a Circus… it’s not Congress exclusively, it’s the Democrats exclusively, with some RINO’s mixed in for good measure. Biden opened up the da@ned borders, was taking down border walls, and allowing trafficking to go full throttle. Saying it’s no one’s fault but Congress is beating around the BUSH, and yes I intended the play on words to make it clear you are all for cheap labor and millions more illegals entering the country without going through the proper channels, so that others who have been waiting patiently for legal immigration, will have to wait longer, or indefinitely. Stop the bogus blame game. It starts at the top.

    1. They want the vote and that is thee only reason plain and simple they can care less about anything elsr

  26. It starts at the TOP Bush II. Stop covering for your Crony Capitalist friend, Joe (money laundering) Biden.

  27. There is only one person who is guilty of the debacle at the border and his name is JOE BIDEN. This incompetent fool only needed to keep President Trumps policies and we would not have a border issue. Biden is an incompetent FOOL.

  28. Sorry I don’t want anything Barry did good or bad he wasn’t an illegitimate president that never should have been… all he did doesn’t count…

  29. Mr Trump had it handled but Barry wants to undo everything he did cause that’s what Trump did. Our 3rd term acting president. The state is so deep it’s like quick sand it’s sucking them all in . Money is the root of all that’s evil and folks we are here now. Bend over and kiss it good bye if you don’t vote Republican…

  30. Mr. Bush…(sorry to say..this..!) along with his VP Cheney (a dick!) MUST BE TRIED IN A WORLD COURT, FOR CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY, FOR TURNING THE WORLD UPSIDE DOWN, by going after WMD’s, when there were none. He is responsible for the UNNECESSARY deaths of Saddam Hussein & Mohamar Gadhafi…. See what has happened to Iraq & Libya & then to Syria & the whole middle east.? GWB tried to bring democracy, to a people, where ONLY AUTOCRACY WORKS…. That is the edict of their so-called, prophet moh’d…. NOTHING ELSE WORKS THERE….I have lived among those people, for a long time. GWB was PUSHED by this other hawk, cheney….. When will the world realize this?…I don’t know….. Yes, then comes clinton, another scum bag…..& ofcourse Oh-bum….a TRAITOR to our country…. & now, this retard at 1600 Pen.Ave.
    The Bible says…A PEOPLE GET, WHAT THEY DESERVE…….PERIOD.

  31. Oh common man!
    Biden’s the one who invited them to come they wouldn’t be turned away and they would get everything given to them. Plus he stopped the border wall and wants to get rid of ice.
    Bush had nothing to say when he was President and way too much to say now! !!

  32. How is this administration not to blame? They are allowing thousands and thousands to pour in here and we all know why. They will become Democrat voters. That is the point. The Dems don’t care about their own citizens they only care about their own power.

  33. Nice try George, but Biden had the final say & he did nothing to stop it. Why would he, when he said it was exactly what he would do since way before the election. Congress just followed his lead, it was what they PLANNED TOGETHER FROM DAY ONE.
    BY THE WAY GEORGE, YOU WERE NOT MUCH BETTER.

  34. For once President Bush is correct in that Congress and the Supreme Court are largely responsible for Not Stopping the Flood Of Illegal Immigrants Into America !!! There are laws that are Being Ignored and Not Being Enforced !! However, Congress is in Support of Socialism and the Deep Dark State !!!! Both Congress and The Deep Dark State want to Flood America with Illegal Immigrants to further Destroy Our Economy, Our National and Personal Security, Our Rule Of Laws and Our Constitution !!! This is all Part of Their Evil Agenda to Bring Down and Destroy the American Culture For Votes, which will Bring About Their One Party Dictatorial !!!!
    Wake Up America, We Are In Very, Very Serious and Dire Danger “FROM WITHIN” and China!!!!
