It begins: The Biden border surge, never mind about the COVID lockdowns; Biden's policy of open borders stands in stark contradiction to his vow to contain COVID

Migrants, and more important, the people who traffic and profit from migrants, are like the stock market: They're forward-looking. They make decisions now based on what they see coming down the pike.

So surprise, surprise, the media's crowning of Joe Biden president, along with many world leaders congratulating him and conducting their affairs of state with him, even as legal challenges are going on, has sent a message to Central America's gangs and Mexico's cartels, who control migrant smuggling routes to the U.S. It's time to profit. It's time to go. A new border surge has begun, in anticipation of a Biden open-borders presidency, which comes just as Democrat-run states and Biden himself are prescribing new COVID lockdowns.

According to the Washington Times's Stephen Dinan:

Border Patrol agents are already seeing a Biden surge in illegal immigration at the southwest border, officials said Thursday, with the numbers surging 21% over the last month alone.

Acting Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Mark Morgan said worsening economic conditions south of the border are largely responsible for the uptick, but he also blamed “perceived and or anticipated shifts in policies” here in the U.S.

He said it’s particularly dangerous at a time when the coronavirus pandemic is taking a toll on CBP personnel. At least 1,300 CBP staffers are currently quarantined, 700 are currently COVID-positive and 15 have died of the virus.

“I’ve attended way too many funerals,” Mr. Morgan said.

Border Patrol agents and CBP officers snared about 69,000 unauthorized border crossers in October, up from about 58,000 in September.

Based on the number of COVID cases the Border Patrol is suffering, the unvetted migrants are bringing it in.

When the pandemic started, Biden actually said we need to admit more people to take care of them. Never mind that admitting more people would further overwhelm our (supposedly) already overwhelmed medical facilities.

I thought the traitors said COVID was so dangerous that he had to quarantine? So, we’re they lying then or are the lying now?

RESIST, DEFY, REBEL.

This time they’ll find over 400 miles of new border wall system:

<> Internally hardened steel-bollard barriers from 18’ to 30’ high
<> New and improved all-weather access roads
<> Perimeter lighting
<> Enforcement cameras
<> Other related technology [sensors]

What it looks like...

The ruling class is eagerly anticipating all the child sex slaves who will be kidnapped and brought across the border.

In the 19th century the lament was we should have picked our own cotton. In the 21st century it’s we should have cut our own grass and cleaned out own toilets.

That’s a rhetorical question.

In fact, watch the dismantling of the border fence that were built the last 4 years.

None of this will matter under a biden presidency most who come across will be able to stay. The fence is not a problem if getting caught only means that you get fingerprinted and an NTA(notice to appear).

As of now everyone gets sent back due to covid, only those being prosecuted are not sent back south within a few hours.
