They are dead because of his fuck up. I know you don't care. Like

Why did Biden spend his first day signing off all Trumps EOs? He could
have changed that too.

Bull shit. Follow the fucking law. Cross at legal crossing points and
get vetted. If you try to cross anywhere else you are breaking the law
