The truth behind the Texas bridge migrants

While the president took a long weekend relaxing at the beach in Delaware, another self-imposed crisis blew up in his face.

The migrant shantytown under a concrete overpass in Del Rio, Texas, had ballooned to 15,000 souls, mainly Haitians. They were running out of food and water amid dangerously unsanitary conditions. With a pipeline of hundreds more flooding across the Rio Grande from Mexico every day, a humanitarian disaster was unfolding and the media were starting to pay attention.

On Wednesday, 9,000 had arrived. By Saturday, 6,000 more had crossed the river with no impediment. The border was wide open. There wasn’t even a sign to stop them.

They set up camp in the shade under the International Bridge and soon had overwhelmed the port-a-potties provided by authorities. They were sleeping on the ground under rough tents fashioned from sticks and trash bags, washing their clothes in the river.

The garbage piled up, and some of the migrants took to crossing back into Mexico to buy supplies.

I say just let them stay where they are until they self-deport.

Yes - it is totally a conspiracy theory. However, it is also no an uncommon practice in a dictatorship. I recall that Sadam Hussein had a couple body doubles. Our current government is so corrupt, evil, and desperate that I do not put anything past them any more.

“Since Friday, 3,300 migrants have already been removed from the Del Rio camp to planes or detention centers..”

How long are they “detained” before being released on a promise to appear for a hearing? 72 hours? What percentage (or more likely fraction of one percent) of them show up at the hearing?

Looking closely at “Joe’s” shoes... looks like he’s using toe clips on those pedals. No way unsteady Joe could manage those.

There is a reason the ancient ROMANS had legions on the Rhine. When those Legions disappeared, Rome was overrun and conquered by the barbarians.

It is happening here people! Thank a Democrat!

This is a photo shopped picture. You can look around the edges of each figure, especially her.

And those aren't Biden's arms.

Those look like the biceps and forearms of a 28 year old Marine Corps drill instructor.

Exactly my thoughts. That arm on Biden looks like it belongs on a Marine Corps drill instructor, not a 78 year old dementia addled man.

His handlers must be having a meeting and don’t want him around to muck it up to let something slip to the public.

George Soros is footing the bill for all of this.

Did he ride one of those three wheel bikes with the basket on the back to take his picnic lunch of a Kids Meal in it?

I watched the video on Fox. That is NOT Joe.
Joe shuffles when he walks and appears to be unsteady on his feet.
