Since early 2021 we have witnessed somewhere between 7 and 8 million illegal entries across the now nonexistent U.S. southern border. The more the border vanished, the more federal immigration law was rendered inert, and the more Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas spun fantasies that the “border is secure.” He is now written off as a veritable “Baghdad Bob” propagandist.
But how and why did the Biden administration destroy immigration law as we knew it?
The Trump administration’s initial efforts to close the border had been continually obstructed in the Congress, sabotaged by the administrative state, and stymied in the courts. Nonetheless, it had finally secured the border by early 2020. Yet almost all of its successful initiatives were immediately overturned in 2021.
The wall was abruptly stopped, its projected trajectory cancelled. The Obama-era disastrous “catch-and release” policy of immigration non-enforcement was resurrected. Prior successful pressure on Mexico’s President Andrés Obrador to stop the deliberate export of his own citizens northward ceased. Federal border patrol officers were forced to stand down. New federal subsidies were granted to entice and then support illegal arrivals.
No one in the Democratic Party objected to the destruction of the border or the subversion of immigration law. However, things changed somewhat once swamped southern border states began to bus or fly a few thousand of their illegal immigrants northward to sanctuary city jurisdictions—especially to New York, Chicago, and even Martha’s Vineyard. The sanctuary-city “humanists” there who had greenlighted illegal immigration into the southern states suddenly shrieked. They were irate after experiencing the concrete consequences of their own prior abstract border agendas. After all, their nihilism was always supposed to fall upon distant and ridiculed others.

Rip Van Hanson finally wakes up and smells the illegals
For 20 years he’s been saying “No problemo!”.
Not it’s a problem.
Duh.
Trump had finally secured the border by early 2020. Yet almost all of the successful
initiatives were immediately overturned in 2021 after Biden’s brazen election steal.

No one in the Democratic Party objected to the destruction of the border or the subversion of immigration law then.
However, things changed once border states began to bus or fly thousands of illegals northward to sanctuary cities—like New York, Chicago, and even Martha’s Vineyard.
The feel-good sanctuary-city “humanists” who had green-lighted rampant illegal immigration into the southern states suddenly shrieked, visibly irate after experiencing the concrete consequences of their own border agendas.
After all, these absurdities were supposed to fall upon distant Trump types they ridiculed.
I sincerely would double that 7-8 million number.
NO ONE has ANY idea how many never contacted a BP agent or similar.
For years, the BP said they were ONLY CATCHING 10%.
WHY WOULD THAT CHANGE???
Great factual post as always.
It means Biden is a lying, dog faced pony soldier for lying about Trump being to blame.
I beg to differ.
They are intent to have indentured servants - so-to-speak - dependent upon the state and malleable to their wishes (votes).
And a little mayhem from all the criminals serves their other ulterior motives nicely as well (social upheaval & cultural revolution).
Bkmk
VDH bump!
Could you imagine the state of education in our universities if all professors were of VDH’s quality?
