Chad Wolf, a former acting secretary at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) during the Trump administration, said that the ongoing illegal migrant crisis at America’s border could have been avoided.

The current border crisis is something that “didn’t need to occur,” Wolf said in an interview with Tony Perkins, host of the “Washington Watch” radio show, while criticizing the Biden administration’s policies for creating such a situation. There has been a jump in illegal migrant crossings, which comes as the Title 42 pandemic-restrictions ended on May 11. Title 42 had allowed for quick expulsion of some migrants citing health concerns.
