With Title 42’s expiration just days away, and a massive surge in migration expected to follow, the Biden administration is ramping up its tougher talk about the potential consequences of illegal entry to dissuade migrants from making the journey -- but so far they are not listening.
"Don't listen to smugglers' lies about America's immigration laws. The U.S. border is not open to illegal or irregular migration and U.S. immigration laws will be tougher as the Title 42 public health order ends," the Department of Homeland Security tweeted on Tuesday.
That tweet comes after similar warnings from the head of Customs and Border Protection, and DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas himself in recent days.
