CNN’s Kaitlin Collins pressed White House press secretary Jen Psaki on why the Biden admin was refusing to address the “crisis” at the border (which everyone and their pet rabbit could have seen coming):
“The administration has refused to call it a crisis, instead referring to it as a challenge and saying what you call it doesn’t make a difference of how you’re responding to it, but now today there are over 3,700 children – unaccompanied migrant children – in border patrol custody,” Collins noted.
“They’re spending on average over 100 hours – four days – in these facilities that are jail-like facilities not meant for children, so how can you say that’s not a crisis?” she continued.
Psaki exclaimed that “it doesn’t matter what you call it” and referred to the situation as “an enormous challenge.”
“Our focus here is getting to the root of the issues and taking actions, and we don’t feel the need to play games with what it’s called,” Psaki ultimately said.
