Katie Couric to Border Czar Kamala Harris: ‘You Are Not in Charge of the Border, Which I Think Is Important to Point Out’

COURIC: “I want to talk to you a little bit about immigration, because I think just about everyone, and you have said as well agrees that the immigration system is broken.”
Harris: “Yeah.”
COURIC: “And we need comprehensive immigration reform. Early on I know you were tasked with understanding the root causes of the immigration crisis —”
Harris: “Yes.”
COURIC: “— but you are not in charge of the border, which I think is important to point out. Having said that, 14 House Democrats joined Republicans in denouncing the Biden Administration’s so called Open Door policies — calling — Open Border policies, rather — calling it quote, ‘a national security and public safety crisis.’ And as you know, I’m sure you’ve talked to them so many big city mayors, Democrats, are saying this is an untenable situation in cities across the country, 68 percent of Americans disapprove of the way the Biden Administration has handled the border. So how do you address that? Have you done enough?”
Harris: “Our — there’s no question, our immigration system is broken. And it needs to be fixed. And as with any problem then leaders will participate, true leaders, in the solution. So I’m going to take you back to about three years ago, and it was I think, the day after our inauguration, when we came in, Joe Biden as president and me as vice president, the first bill that we offered was a bill to fix the immigration system.”
