Claim: purports President Joe Biden has visited the U.S.-Southern Border more than once (Press Briefing, 2023-05-09)
Evidence (2023-01-08): President Joe Biden traveled to El Paso, Texas, on Sunday to assess enforcement operations at the U.S.-Mexico border — his first trip to the border since taking office — just days after his administration announced new restrictions on asylum seekers amid record numbers of migrants attempting to cross into the U.S. The trip comes amid repeated Republican criticism of the president for not traveling to the southern border sooner and of what they say are his administration's ineffective policies as the situation there has worsened. Biden plans to demand Republicans in Congress fund his request for border security resources and to work toward comprehensive immigration reform, a White House official said. [...] Biden also visited the El Paso County Migrant Services Center and met with community leaders, including those of religious groups and nonprofit organizations that have helped manage the surge of migrants.
Claim: purports President Joe Biden has visited the U.S.-Southern Border more than once (Press Briefing, 2023-05-09)
Evidence (2023-01-06): As he makes his first visit to the border as President on Sunday, Joe Biden is witnessing a human rights crisis unfolding both in his own backyard and Mexico’s. [...] Biden’s visit comes at a politically charged moment for the country’s immigration policies, as well as his own political future. He has not yet announced whether he will run for re-election, but is widely expected to do so. Republicans have frequently criticized how Biden has not visited the border during his presidency, using the fact as a way of arguing that he has no interest in taking the border situation seriously. "The border is President Biden’s greatest vulnerability right after inflation," says Republican political consultant Whit Ayres, adding, "If you watch Fox News, it seems like half the stories they run are about chaos at the border."
Claim: purports President Joe Biden has visited the U.S.-Southern Border more than once (Press Briefing, 2023-05-09)
Evidence (2024-02-26): WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden had been considering a trip to the southern border for weeks as a way to amplify his efforts to remind Americans that Republicans derailed a bipartisan border deal he was prepared to sign into law, according to two senior administration officials. The timing of Biden’s second visit to the border since taking office — one week before he is scheduled to deliver the State of the Union address — is an attempt by the White House to maximize the political impact of the trip, the officials said. [...] Biden has been in near daily meetings on the border over the past few weeks and has directed his team to produce solutions that don’t involve Congress, according to administration officials.

Evidence (2023-01-09): US President Joe Biden visit US-Mexico border after Republicans criticise his approach as migrant crossings rise US President Joe Biden has walked a stretch of the US-Mexico border and inspected a busy port of entry on his first trip to the region after two years in office. [...] Mr Biden's only other visit to the border that the White House could point to was a drive by during the presidential campaign in 2008.

Evidence (2023-01-09): Biden visits US-Mexico border in trip to Texas Joe Biden has walked along the US-Mexico border in Texas to see up close one of his presidency's biggest issues. [...] Mr Biden's visit, his first since becoming president two years ago, was also expected to include meetings with border officials to discuss migration and the increased trafficking of fentanyl and other opioids.
Claim: purports President Joe Biden has visited the U.S.-Southern Border more than once (Press Briefing, 2023-05-09)
Evidence (2024-09-29): Crossings did reach record levels under President Biden, but numbers have dropped significantly in recent months. Now Harris says she will make it even harder for migrants to seek asylum in the US. [...] These encounters have risen to record highs under the Biden administration but not to the level Trump - who has not provided a source for his claim - maintains. Since January 2021, when Joe Biden came to office, there have been more than 10 million encounters - about 8 million came over the southwest land border with Mexico.
Claim: purports President Joe Biden has visited the U.S.-Southern Border more than once (Press Briefing, 2023-05-09)
Evidence (2024-09-27): After the immigration legislation stalled, the Biden administration announced rules that bar migrants from being granted asylum when U.S. officials deem that the southern border is overwhelmed. Since then, arrests for illegal border crossings have fallen. Harris’ plan to exceed Biden’s efforts at the border would include more serious criminal charges for people who repeatedly cross illegally and require asylum claims to be made at ports of entry. She used her trip to remind voters about her work as attorney general of California in confronting crime along the border. She talked about helping to prosecute drug- and people-smuggling gangs that operated transnationally and at the border. The vice president’s trip to Douglas thrusts the issue of immigration into the brightest spotlight yet less than six weeks before Election Day. Trump didn’t wait for her to arrive there before pushing back. He pointed Friday to purported data about criminals entering the U.S. illegally in a bid to link Harris to violent crimes committed by migrants. In a scathing diatribe, he said "blood is on her hands." "These are hard, tough, vicious criminals that are free to roam in our country," Trump said at a manufacturing plant in Michigan.
Claim: purports President Joe Biden has visited the U.S.-Southern Border more than once (Press Briefing, 2023-05-09)
Evidence (2024-07-24): Although the United States’ southern border was not specifically part of the portfolio handed to her, Harris’s indirect involvement—through her role in seeking to reduce migratory push factors in northern Central America—has received considerable scrutiny, especially among those who criticize the Biden administration’s approach to migration. The data at this point indicate that the Biden administration has made progress in reducing the number of migrants arriving at the US border from Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador to levels last seen toward the end of the Trump administration, even as increased migration from other countries has contributed to a high level of overall encounters at the border.
Claim: purports President Joe Biden has visited the U.S.-Southern Border more than once (Press Briefing, 2023-05-09)
Evidence (2024-07-20): Trump claimed the chart shows how his administration successfully controlled immigration at the southern border and how President Joe Biden reversed some of the progress made during his presidency. [...] "As this chart shows … the border was getting increasingly out of control in the months before the election in 2020. By December of 2020, border apprehensions were the highest level for December since 1999, and within days after President Biden taking office, the Mexican governor of the state of Tamaulipas told DHS that they could no longer expel Central American families with children under the age of seven across the border in south Texas," Reichlin-Melnich told ABC News. [...] CBP recorded 130,419 encounters along the southern border overall, a roughly 40,000 drop since May. That overall number includes migrants who made appointments at ports of entry, others seeking entry through lawful pathways established by the Biden administration.
Claim: purports President Joe Biden has visited the U.S.-Southern Border more than once (Press Briefing, 2023-05-09)
Evidence (2021-04-06): Asked about the allegations, Joe Biden told a reporter it was a "smear campaign". No criminal activity has been proven, and no evidence has emerged that Mr Biden did anything to intentionally benefit his son. [...] Mr Bobulinski, who is reportedly a US Navy veteran, separately told Fox News' Tucker Carlson that he had met on two occasions with Joe Biden to discuss business deals with China, the first time in May 2017 when Barack Obama's former vice-president was a private citizen.
Claim: purports President Joe Biden has visited the U.S.-Southern Border more than once (Press Briefing, 2023-05-09)
Evidence (2024-09-30): I voted "Yes" on H.Res. 1371, Strongly condemning the Biden Administration and its Border Czar, Kamala Harris’s, failure to secure the United States border. In 2021, as illegal aliens began pouring over our Southern Border leading to the border crisis, Vice President Kamala Harris was designated as the "border czar." During her time as the border czar, Harris only visited the Southern Border once and has never spoken with the Chief of the U.S. Border Patrol. During Harris’ time as border czar, over 9.9 million illegal aliens have entered the United States, including individuals with ties to terrorist organizations and individuals on the terror watchlist. I am disappointed that only six of my Democratic colleagues had the courage to vote for this simple resolution that highlights the ongoing crisis on our border that has turned every community into a border community. H.Res. 1371 passed the House by a vote of 220-196.

Evidence (2024-06-25): Further, despite being President Biden's border czar, after saying border visits were just grand gestures, she has only made one trip to the Southwest border, all the way back in June 2021, in what Texas [...] The chart next to me shows cumulative Southwest border encounters for the first 42 months of the last six Presidential terms.

Claim: purports President Joe Biden has visited the U.S.-Southern Border more than once (Press Briefing, 2023-05-09)
Evidence (2021-03-29): President Biden took an ax even to executive actions President Trump issued in his final week. Five days before leaving office, President Trump officially announced the continuation of a national emergency over the U.S. southern border. President Biden terminated the emergency declaration on Inauguration Day.

Evidence (2021-04-23): - The Biden administration has ordered U.S. border and immigration agencies to stop using terms like "alien," "illegal alien," and "assimilation" in their communications. [...] - At the Intercept, Ryan Deveraux files a lengthy, multi-source report from Arizona and Sonora. It finds that the Biden administration’s persistent application of Title 42 expulsions "is making one of the deadliest stretches of the U.S.-Mexico divide more dangerous, endangering the people the president purports to support and enriching the illicit networks he purports to oppose." Many expulsions are happening in the middle of the night.

Evidence (2024-10-09): Absolutely. We have been clear since the Biden Administration came on board that we are prepared to have an open dialogue with the North Koreans without preconditions. We want to pursue diplomacy. I visited the room on the border at the DMZ. I saw the table with the flags on the table, the chairs empty, … [...] We once again call on all parties to refrain from unilateral actions that increase tensions and undercut efforts to advance a negotiated two-state solution, such as settlement activity, demolitions, incitement to violence, and evictions. President Biden will travel to the region in July to meet with Israeli and Palestinian leaders to urge calm and explore … [...] The United States has had more than 60 diplomatic meetings at the highest levels, including at least five by President Biden. In his most recent call with Prime Minister Netanyahu yesterday, President Biden communicated that we continue to stand by Israel’s right to defend itself, that we believe Israel is now in a position to …

Evidence (2019-11-29): ‘Book Of Yeezus’ – Did Kanye West Publish A Bible That Replaces ‘God’ With His Name? A Facebook post claims that rapper Kanye West published a version of the Book of Genesis that replaces all mentions of God with his name.

[...] What if the Bible, the most singularly significant publication in the ancient canon of Western tradition, were updated to reflect our modern society? What would it look like? What we came up with was an interventionist art, coffee-table novelty, that will appeal to both Kanye fans everywhere and those made curious by this enormous cultural phenomenon.
Claim: claims Kanye West published a version of the Book of Genesis that substitutes God's name with his own. (Viral Post, 2019-10-29)
Evidence (2022-10-13): He makes room for God being the God of Israel, Yahweh, Elohim, but essentially, it's about Kanye's power and how people should serve him. So he's like, "Where's my message? Where's my Minaj? Get my car out of the garage?" Essentially talking about that people are there to serve him, his body, his sexual needs, his cars. He puts himself as kind of like a pagan deity who is hungry and in need. It's exactly what a lot of like the first 11 chapters of Genesis are trying to critique—these gods of the Mediterranean and the Near East that were these gods that were hungry and need humans to cook their food and give it to them. [...] And it is exactly contradictory to the Biblical story and what Jesus is talking about. That when we are made in the image of God, it's humanity, all of humanity together functions as the representatives of God and no one human is above another. We're supposed to learn how to rule like God in this humble way. Kanye basically becomes his own pagan deity. He still makes room for God in the sense that he talks about, that he's a man of God, his life is in the hand of God. In the second verse actually, Jesus talks to him. But he talks about how, "He's the most high, but I'm a close high."

Well, fear not – solace and wisdom as at hand via a new Bible called 'The Book of Yeezus', which replaces every mention of God with the word ‘Kanye’. Yes, seriously.

Evidence (2015-04-09): Now, we see a "Kanye West" version of God's Word, which effectively removes any and all mention of God's name, hitting the market. The "Book of Yeezus" publishers are setting up West, a Grammy-winning rapper who offended many by kicking off his "Yeezus" album tour by inviting a Jesus impersonator on stage as God. The Book of Yeezus replaces every mention of God and Yeshua with Kanye and Yeezus. Here's an example of the language: "In the beginning Kanye created the heaven and the earth … And Kanye said, Let there be light: and there was light." I'm not sure what the publishers did with the Holy Spirit, but this is blasphemous enough without involving the Third Person of the Trinity. [...] "The Book of Yeezus is a creative vision, bound in a gold leaf-etched, illustrated, black leather book that details the story of Genesis–for the new age. In its foreword, we explore our culture's state of religiosity and its capacity for wonder," marketing language around the Bible reads.
