The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has addressed the concerns of Americans frustrated with the rising costs of living, attributing these issues to the policies of former President Joe Biden, particularly his handling of border security.

On Thursday, a post on social media platform X from the DHS aimed to respond to queries from citizens puzzled by the increasing expenses of essentials such as rent, groceries, and healthcare. The post attributed these economic challenges to what it described as the “tens of millions of undocumented immigrants” currently in the United States.

It’s not just lip service because DHS operations to crack down on illegal criminals in our country prove that every economic struggle could have been prevented if Biden and his administration had done their jobs to secure our borders.

Assistant Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, Tricia McLaughlin, provided a perfect example during a recent appearance on Fox News about the recent “Charlotte’s Web” CBP operation in Charlotte, North Carolina.

McLaughlin is right. There are only so many resources available, and Trump’s administration is trying to clean up Biden and the Democrats’ mess.
