Biden's failed immigration policies turned every state into a border state

In April 2022, U.S. Customs and Border Protection apprehended 234,088 migrants at the southern border. This is the highest number of monthly apprehensions in CBP’s history, and a 1,268 percent increase compared to April 2020.

What has changed over the last two years? In 2020, we had a president who worked to secure our border and shield American citizens from drug traffickers trying to smuggle illicit substances into our country. Now, we have a president who has welcomed illegal immigrants into our country with open arms. Due to resident Joe Biden’s open-door immigration policies, every state in America is now a border state. Through his failed border policies, resident Biden has surrendered operational control of America’s southern border to drug cartels.

In his first 100 days in office, resident Biden issued more than 90 executive actions on immigration, including stopping the construction of President Trump’s border wall, which cost taxpayers $72 million, and ending the Trump administration’s successful "Remain in Mexico" policy, which required migrants seeking asylum to wait in Mexico until their court date in the United States. Because of President Biden’s efforts to dismantle America’s border and immigration enforcement system, drug-overdose deaths reached a new record last year.

The Wall Street Journal reports that over 100,000 Americans died from drug overdoses in 2021. Provisional data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reveals that roughly two-thirds of these deaths came from synthetic opioids like fentanyl. To date, CBP has seized over 5,000 pounds of fentanyl in Fiscal Year 2022. This is enough to kill 2.4 billion people – nearly one-third of the Earth’s entire population. Fentanyl can be 50 times stronger than heroin, and it is easier for drug cartels to manufacture because it can be made from common chemicals.

And the States have every RIGHT to SEIZE Federal Property and the ASSETS of Federal Employee’s to pay for any Injury or Loss they suffer.

His policies haven’t failed. He’s getting exactly what he and the Prog Dems wanted.

Attention Rep. Steve Scalise and Cliff Bentz: They are NOT “migrants,” they are CRIMINAL ALIENS.

I remember the good old days when they were routinely called illegal aliens. Then the lamestream media decided that was too harsh so they changed to calling them illegals. Later the lamestream media decided that was still too harsh so they changed to calling them migrants. What a buncha BS. Shame on Fox news.

[oldasrocks]

How long is the average American going to put up with this BS?

Even the legal Mexicans I know don’t like it as it gives them a bad name.

[upchuck]

Even the legal Mexicans I know don’t like it as it gives them a bad name.

Same here. Every Mexican I know is a Republican by choice.

[jmacusa]

Are they Mexicans or Americans?

[jmacusa]

Human garbage.

Two more years of this and we’ll be Mexico with nukes.

The American people are frankly helpless to do much about it even if they wanted to go to the border armed to protect it. Biden would have the national guard and we’d have citizens against our own military.

So as long as this administration is in charge the border will remain opened and the invasion of our country by illegal aliens will continue.

The colonists are frankly helpless to do much about it even if they wanted to go to the harbors armed to protect them.

King George has the red coats and we’d have Loyalists against our own Minute Men.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal,

 that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights,

 that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--

 

That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men,

 deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --

 

That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends,

 it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government,

 laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form,

 as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

 

Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes;

 and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable,

 than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.

 

But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design

 to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government,

 and to provide new Guards for their future security.--

 

Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies;

 and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government.

 

The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations,

 all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States.

 

To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

[Elsie]

[caww]

Yes, but the will 'to throw off the government' is not enough when any effort to do so would be met with Pelosi and our militry. She did so with a protest.

[Elsie]

Goodbye, Tree of Liberty.

May your chains rest lightly on you.

[caww]

Biden/Obama/Pelosi first priority is keeping American citizens safe - allowing an invasion on our border and countless other areas destroying our nation evidences clearly the Demorats have no regard for American people apart from fleecing their pockets.
