CNN anchor Brianna Keilar and former Trump communications director Mike Dubke argued over whether the network ever labeled Kamala Harris the “border czar.”
Since asserting she was once operating for office, former President Donald Trump and other Republicans have tried to criticize Harris by claiming she was once the Biden administration’s “border czar” and oversaw the surge in undocumented migrants.
Harris was once never appointed as the administration’s “border czar” because the place does not officially exist. Back in March 2021, Joe Biden tasked Harris with overseeing diplomatic efforts in Imperative The us.
All over a discussion over Harris’ upcoming interview with Dana Bash, Dubke claimed that CNN at one level called Harris the “border czar.”
DUBKE: I do know there’s this whole nomenclature over border czar. However that was the language that was used on the time. We have now an immigration drawback. We need to talk about that. So with a bit of luck — I’m hoping that, that it turns right into a conversation where Dana is asking the vp why she made a few of these flips and flops.
KEILAR: Her purview, just to be clear, was taking a look at the drivers of immigration.
DUBKE: I really don’t wish to argue about this — On the time it was once suggested, and I’m going to be clear — at the time it was suggested, even CNN called her a border czar — we can argue about that —
KEILAR: No, we didn’t.
DUBKE: I feel we can go back and double test it —
KEILAR: Okay, we’ll return and double take a look at it.
DUBKE: — and if I’m mistaken I will eat my words on that.
