The move is a remarkable reversal for a president who campaigned vociferously against a wall and halted its construction on his first day in office. President Biden said today that he still believed that the border wall was ineffective, but he insisted that he had no choice but to use money that was already appropriated for the wall’s construction. The homeland security secretary, Alejandro Mayorkas, argued that there was “an acute and immediate need” for the barriers “in order to prevent unlawful entries into the United States.” The move is one of the starkest signs yet of the challenges Biden is wrestling with, as humanitarian crises across the world drive more migrants to the border, and while a deeply divided Congress leaves in place an outdated, dysfunctional immigration system. News that the wall would be expanded broke as three members of Biden’s cabinet were traveling to Mexico for meetings with the country’s leader [on a host of issues, including migration and border security](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnAbebP0TtaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMy8xMC8wNS93b3JsZC9hbWVyaWNhcy9tZXhpY28tYmxpbmtlbi1nYXJsYW5kLW1heW9ya2FzLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTcmZW1jPWVkaXRfbmVfMjAyMzEwMDUmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MTA0NTE3Jm5sPXRoZS1ldmVuaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xNDY2MTQmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmUdmzIfZZZdGTRSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAw~~). Mexico’s president, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, denounced the new construction, saying it stands “contrary” to what Biden had been arguing.

A small group of rebellious House Republicans joined with Democrats to remove Kevin McCarthy after accusing him of making a “secret side deal” with Biden over funding for Kyiv. And now opposition to aid has become a key issue in the race to replace McCarthy, [making clear that the right-wing message is gaining momentum among Republicans](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnAbebP0TiaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMy8xMC8wNS91cy9wb2xpdGljcy9yZXB1YmxpY2Fucy11a3JhaW5lLWFpZC5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU3JmVtYz1lZGl0X25lXzIwMjMxMDA1Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTEwNDUxNyZubD10aGUtZXZlbmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTQ2NjE0JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgplHZsyH2WWXRk0Uht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAM~). The shift is striking for a party that has long defined itself by a belief in a muscular U.S. military defending democracy around the world. Republican intransigence could greatly hamper the ability of the Biden administration to fulfill its promise to support the Ukrainian military for the long haul.
