Eagle Pass, Texas Mayor Rolando Salinas blamed President Joe Biden for the influx of illegal immigrants flooding the United States border.

During an interview with Erin Burnett on CNN’s “OutFront,” Salinas, a Democrat, criticized the president.

“First of all, this is definitely a very serious situation for the city of Eagle Pass,” he said. “We’re a city of about 28,000 to 30,000 people. And the last couple of days, we’ve had an excess of 5,000 people crossed from Piedras Negras, Mexico, into Eagle Pass, Texas.”

“Well, fortunately, we have the help of our state partners, DPS, the governor, our federal agencies, Border Patrol,” he said. “They are helping, and they are controlling the situation, as best as they can. But what’s disappointing is that you have all of these thousands of people just walking in, without any consequence whatsoever.”

“So, the word is getting out. It’s kind of come one, come all type of approach. And you have all these people coming. There is no consequence. And I just want to say that I think that this is unacceptable. It’s a shame that we don’t have immigration reform, and a solution to prevent situations like this.”

From The Daily Wire:

Burnett asked Salinas if Biden bears “some of the responsibility for the crisis” that is unfolding in Eagle Pass.

“I’ll be honest with you, I’ll believe 100 percent he does,” he said. “I haven’t heard from anybody in the administration. The president hasn’t put out a statement, the vice president, I haven’t heard from anybody.”
