These deaths are on Biden. He and his administration have done nothing to secure America's borders, and reckless open-door policies have deadly consequences. Many more migrants will die before the Democrats decide to act responsibly.
While the GOP rants about the Democrats' supposed "open-door policies," technically, the border is still closed to migrants. Title 42, a policy from early in the pandemic, closed the southern border to stop the spread of COVID. An unintended consequence is that dangerous illegal border crossings have increased, and these trends can't be blamed on Democrats alone - Title 42 is a vital part of the GOP platform.
