Vice President Kamala Harris is scheduled to make her first appearance on “The View” Friday, with no immediate plans to visit the U.S.-Mexico border amid the ongoing migrant crisis.

Harris is expected to join hosts Whoopi Goldberg, Sara Haines, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin and Ana Navarro to discuss current issues connected to the COVID-19 pandemic, vaccinations, Afghanistan, immigration and voting rights, according to ABC News.

The vice president has not arranged for a visit to the southern border at the time of publication, as over 10,000 migrants, mostly Haitians, have migrated to the U.S. and have resided in makeshift shelters under the Del Rio International Bridge in recent days. The migrants have continued to endure overcrowded and unsanitary conditions with a lack of food, water, or proper bathroom facilities.

Footage showed Border Patrol herding Haitian migrants attempting to enter Del Rio in Ciudad Acuña, Mexico, Monday. Horse patrol units were deployed to combat the mass influx of illegal immigration. The U.S. and Mexico are collaborating to cease a continuation in migration across the border, leading to Mexican officials to block entryways in Ciudad Acuña in an effort of preventing the migrants from crossing the Rio Grande River.

Border officials encountered 208,887 migrants attempting entry into the U.S. in August, a slight decrease from the 212,000 encounters in July, according to Customs and Border Protection (CBP) data. The migration numbers have increased 317% in comparison to August 2020.

President Joe Biden appointed Harris as the leading role in tackling the crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border in March, where she is in charge of managing diplomatic efforts with Mexico and Central American nations in order to control the surge of migration. After several months of criticism, the vice president made her first visit to the border in June alongside Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.

Members of the Biden administration said Harris is not responsible for dealing with the surge but rather to address root causes by meeting with heads of state, The Washington Post previously reported.

In May, Republican Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich urged Biden to remove Harris from her position as “border czar” in a letter, due to her absence at the border.

“Vice President Harris has shown little interest in observing what is happening along the border and has failed to articulate any plan to deal with the devastating effects of the crisis,” Brnovich wrote. “Mr. President, this is a slap in the face to Arizonians who helped elect you both to the highest offices in the land.”

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
