oh look, pan spreading false information again
this is why i have to fact check all of his claims
Tom Cotton: "A lot of these migrants that are coming, we have no way to screen their backgrounds for either health or for security."
PolitiFact's ruling: False
CBP told PolitiFact that it does initial inspections for symptoms or risk factors associated with COVID-19, and "pursuant to longstanding infectious disease protocols," refers immigrants who might have an infectious disease to local clinics or hospitals "for appropriate medical evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment."
Procedures for COVID-19 have been in place since the beginning of the pandemic, said Matthew Dyman, a spokesperson for the CBP.

*pinches temple* there is no immigrant caravan that is bringing the majority of these immigrants, theyr coming by themselves in small groups because those are harder to spot....
and yes, these immigrants were still coming o the border sick under trump...
like, idk if your using a 'caravan' as a way of pivoting from the fact that these immigrants are being screened for covid and held at clinics if they did under both trump and biden....
again, you are factually wrong, and id recommend you'd stop using hyperbole because your just trapping yourself with them...
article btw,
but politifact is fake news when its not aligned with your views

Im talking about migrant caravan vs border crisis. Forget the little instances of illegal immigrants. Few and far between im talking mass exodus such as now. Those other guys had a whole year to make an attempt these events are occuring within like a month or so. Idk why you try to twist the conversation in a way to make yourself right. The conversation has not changed and im not gonna change it for you to win. Biden vs trump the main ulier in the border problem is covid.thats the one thing trump's didnt have that biden does.

excerpt
Cotton said, "A lot of these migrants that are coming, we have no way to screen their backgrounds for either health or security."
A CBP database allows personnel to run criminal background checks on people apprehended at the border and access records collected by U.S. and foreign authorities. CBP routinely publishes data on immigrants who attempted to enter the country and have a criminal record.
CBP might not always have access to a person’s full medical records, but the agency says it screens people for COVID-19 and other health issues.
It’s fair to question whether existing protocols are sufficient, but it’s inaccurate to say "we have no way to screen" immigrants.
We rate Cotton’s claim False.
