We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.
A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
President Joe Biden is reportedly planning to unveil a sweeping new executive order aimed at curbing migrant arrivals at the US-Mexico border.
More than 6.4 million migrants have been stopped crossing into the US illegally during Joe Biden's administration - a record high that has left him politically vulnerable as he campaigns for re-election.
CBS - the BBC's US partner - and other US news outlets reported that Mr Biden has been mulling use of a 1952 law that allows access to the American asylum system to be restricted.
The same regulation was used by the Trump administration to ban immigration and travel from several predominantly Muslim countries and to bar migrants from asylum if they were apprehended crossing into the US illegally, provoking accusations of racism.
"As we have said before, the administration continues to explore a series of policy options and we remain committed to taking action to address our broken immigration system," the spokesperson added.Republicans criticised the Biden border plan as an election-year ruse and argued that US laws already exist to prevent illegal immigration, but they were not being duly enforced by the Democratic president.News of the potential executive order comes as numbers of migrant detentions at the US-Mexico border fall.
Recently released statistics from US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) show that about 179,000 migrant "encounters" were recorded in April.
