Thousands of migrants crossing US border overwhelm government agents

Thousands of Central American migrants, many of them unaccompanied children, have been streaming across the southern border in recent days, overwhelming government agents.

Many of those trying to cross the border had been told by Mexican officials that they would be able to enter the US. In one camp on the Mexican side of the border, which had been set up two years ago, some asylum seekers were told that may reopen their cases and they would eventually be able to enter the US to wait out the asylum process, according to a CBS report.

Mexican authorities have long tried to close the improvised camps that have been set up by migrants attempting to cross into the US.

The new influx is largely due to instability and spiraling COVID-19 infection rates in Central American countries as well as perceptions of a shift in immigration rules under the Biden administration, according to US Customs and Border Protection.

I believe this is what’s called an “invasion”.

But of course, to oppose it would be waciss.

If there are so many Asylum seekers, shouldn’t the US fix the problem in their country where all these people are coming from?

These “unaccompanied children” have no documents. They claim to be age 13 to 17 but they are probably 13 to 27.

This is to crush any states that are opening up and rejecting mask mandates. The Left is willing to infect and kill as many people as necessary to seize and hold power in perpetuity IMO.
