House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., expressed confidence in President Biden's handling of the surge of migrants at the Southern border, saying he's got it "under control." Pelosi said Biden is approaching the migrants, especially unaccompanied minors, in a more "humane" way than former President Donald Trump, and the transition will take some time. "The Biden administration has this under control," Pelosi said Friday during her weekly news conference at the Capitol. But Pelosi dismissed the Republicans' focus on the border, with regular news conferences and congressional trips to Texas, as diversionary. Biden has a plan and "not just a diversionary tactic on the part of the Republicans because they are bankrupt of ideas," Pelosi said.
