On Monday, anchor Chris Cuomo of NewsNation lashed out at the government of President Joe Biden for its refusal to address the problem at the border and accused the two major political parties of exploiting the situation for their own benefit by allowing it to persist.
“You heard all the politics about how there was going to be an invasion and now there’s literally almost no one here, and for you, the absence of people should be more frightening than seeing the big groups because when you see big groups, that means you know where migrants are,” said Cuomo live from the U.S.-Mexico border in El Paso, Texas. Cuomo was reporting on the situation from the U.S.-Mexico border in El Paso, Texas.
Cuomo stated that while he did not want to “create a boogeyman,” the lack of migrants was worrying, and he blasted the media for declining to cover the border simply because there were not large throngs of migrants there. Cuomo said that while he did not want to “create a boogeyman,” the absence of the migrants was alarming.
Because we don’t have the spectacle of vast crowds, the media made a huge error by giving us a break on this, okay? Cuomo stated. “The absence ought to be more scary since we need to know the answer to where they are, and it really is evidence of how flawed this system is,” the author writes. ”
The host speculated that the absence of big groups of migrants near the border may be an indication that they have been relocated to locations further within the United States.
Cuomo asserted that the border was “not secure because that’s the way the people in power prefer it,” and he singled out President Biden in addition to political figures from both the left and the right.
The host of NewsNation then remembered comments made by former Secretary of Homeland Security under the administration of former President Barack Obama, Jeh Johnson, who stated in 2019 that the presence of more than one thousand migrants at the border was sufficient to overwhelm the system.
Cuomo also voiced his displeasure with the media, accusing them of ignoring the difficulties experienced by people who live along the border.
Cuomo broadcast a series of interviews that had been filmed with local neighbors. Among those interviewed was a woman who claimed that migrants had habitually broken into her property, scared her daughter, and even hid beneath her vehicle.
