Is Vice President Kamala Harris 'border czar' for Biden?

During their time in office, President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have faced criticism from many Republican lawmakers over their handling of border security.

Attacks on Harris, who is the Democratic party’s presumptive presidential nominee, have ramped up in recent weeks. Many recent online posts from those who are critical of Harris refer to her as Biden’s “border czar.” Their claims suggest that Harris was put in charge of overseeing immigration enforcement at the southern border and managing the flow of migrants into the U.S.

In a Truth social post, former President Donald Trump also called Harris the “border czar” and said she gave the country “the worst and most dangerous border anywhere in the world,” implying she was put in charge of security and immigration policy at the southern border.

But some Democrats, like U.S. Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT), have rejected these claims. In a post on X shared on July 26, Murphy wrote, “VP Harris was not made ‘border czar.’ That’s made up.”
