Title 42 expires Thursday night, and the Biden administration is urging migrants to use legal pathways to enter the United States as border patrol agents are bracing for an unprecedented number of asylum seekers. The rule was originally put into place during the COVID-19 pandemic in order to curb migration for the sake of preserving public health in America, and after a long legal fight, the Biden administration has gotten rid of this public health order. Many fear that there might not be enough border officials to handle the surge. The Mayor of Laredo, Texas, Dr. Victor Trevino, joins the Rundown for a conversation about how his city is preparing for a massive influx of migrants, the negative impact the surge will have on the Laredo community, and why sending all migrants back to Mexico could cause more problems than it aims to solve.
On Wednesday, the House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer held a press conference and alleged his panel had new findings in their investigation of the Biden family’s business dealings. Chairman Comer described information that detailed how Hunter Biden and other members of the Biden family conducted alleged business dealings with foreign nationals. Co-Host of America’s Newsroom Bill Hemmer joins the Rundown to discuss what the information revealed on Wednesday means for the GOP’s House Oversight investigation into the Biden family, why he believes the committee still has a long way to go before they can prove anything they have alleged, and how recent candidate controversies may impact voters as they weigh options for 2024.
