As concerns over the surge of illegal immigrants crossing the southern border grows, the National Sheriffs Association is calling on the Biden administration to secure the border and protect Americans.
Among the dangers that come along with the thousands of illegal border crossings that occur every month, which include human trafficking, drug smuggling, potential terrorism, death at the hands of coyotes, bandits, and harsh weather, significantly complicating the challenges border patrol and law enforcement face is the COVID-19 pandemic, the association said in a draft border security resolution set for a vote at a meeting in Arizona in June, according to The Washington Examiner.
Up to 50 percent of illegal immigrants are testing positive for COVID-19, the disease the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus causes, the sheriffs association wrote.
“We are already seeing strains to the public health system of border communities. The suspension of deportations has led to the release of undocumented persons into border communities. We then have an affirmative responsibility to provide medical care for them if they are infected with COVID,” the statement reads. “This at a time when our communities are already grappling with this public health emergency and desperately trying to roll out the vaccines. We now face a serious potential public health crisis along the border.”

This decrepit , crumbling wreck of a man, this grifting piece of crap has placed Americans at a substantial risk as well as our national security by opening up the border and allowing this tide of infected human garbage into the country.
How can this not be an impeachable offense?
Ah... ya think?
Human garbage.
Historians have told us that the 1918 influenza sprang from the unnatural living conditions of soldiers, or possibly mutated and intensified in those conditions.
The conditions of the illegal aliens at the border, particularly of the close quarters in which children are held, make one wonder if that is not a breeding ground for covid to mutate and become deadly to children.
For they certainly are exposed to covid in great numbers, and the Biden admin is doing nothing besides putting a few of them in planes flying in the wrong direction.
