Psaki Suggests Migrants Don’t Need to Show Proof of Vaccination Because ‘They’re Not Intending to Stay Here’

Liberal “logic” was on full display at the White House’s press briefing.

In an unprecedented move, Joe Biden is forcing millions of Americans to receive the coronavirus vaccine via a shot in the arm. The “new federal vaccine requirement” is enforced through private employers, impacting as many as 100 million Americans.

The Biden White House Press admits the vaccine mandate does not include migrants at the U.S. southern border.

It’s a simple question: Why don’t migrants who illegally enter the United States need to present proof of vaccination at the border?

For example, when foreign nationals fly into the U.S., they reportedly need proof of vaccination.

The Biden White House says the rules don’t apply to illegal aliens because they are “not intending to stay here for a lengthy period of time.”

At the same time, Democrats are aggressively pushing for amnesty in order to keep illegal aliens in America and provide them citizenship status. The Biden White House is very obviously contradicting itself.

As proof of this push for amnesty, Democrats are proposing the largest single spending bill in history, which costs $3.5 trillion.

As part of this plan, Democrats wanted to include immigration provisions in the $3.5 trillion bill so they can include “a pathway to citizenship for illegal aliens.”

The country already faces unprecedented challenges as a result of the coronavirus pandemic and Democrats seek to make matters far worse.

Fortunately, a preliminary ruling from the Senate Parliamentarian has delivered a massive blow to Democrats. The ruling confirms that Democrats cannot include a pathway to citizenship for illegal aliens in their massive $3.5 trillion social-spending bill.

Fox News reported, “A preliminary ruling from Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough, obtained by Fox, would bar Democrats from adding immigration provisions to the $3.5 trillion reconciliation bill.”

Here’s the exchange between Fox News reporter Peter Doocy and White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki:

DOOCY: I have a question about what’s going on at the border is somebody asking the foreign nationals who are walking in and Del Rio, Texas and setting up camps on this side of the border for proof of vaccination or a negative COVID test?

PSAKI: Well, first of all I can I can re-address for you, or re-talk you through what steps we take–

DOOCY: That’s the policy for people who fly into the country. So if somebody walks into the country, right across the river, does somebody asked them to see their vaccination card?

PSAKI: Well, let me explain to you again, Peter, how our process works. As individuals, as individuals come across the border, and they are both assessed for whether they have any symptoms, if they have symptoms they are, the intention is for them to be quarantined, that is our process.

PSAKI: They’re not intending to stay here for a lengthy period of time. I don’t think it’s the same thing. It’s not the same thing. These are individuals, as we’ve noted, and as we’ve been discussed, we’re expelling individuals based on Title 42, specifically because of COVID, because we want to prevent a scenario where large numbers of people are gathering, posing a threat to the community and also to the migrants themselves.

PSAKI: So, those are the policies that we put in place, in large part because, again, the CDC continues to recommend Title 42 to be in place given we’re facing a global pandemic.
