Biden’s worsening border policies
The Washington Times ^ | Friday, April 22, 2022 | Scott Walker

OPINION:

Arrests at America’s southern borders are surging, and the crisis is the worst it has been in decades. According to data released this week from U.S. Customs and Border Protection, border agents made more than 200,000 arrests along the border in March. That is the busiest month in the past twenty years. The United States has made more than one million arrests at the southern border since October 2021. That is the fastest pace of illegal border crossings in at least two decades. 

Things will likely worsen in the next month as the Biden administration is preparing to lift Title 42 on May 23, 2022. The Trump administration implemented the policy during the COVID-19 pandemic, allowing border agents to quickly turn away people who are arrested trying to enter the United States illegally. 

Of the 1.01 million crossings this year, roughly half resulted in the person being expelled under Title 42. Biden administration officials acknowledge that revoking the policy will likely lead to a massive rise in illegal border crossings. Yet they show no signs of pulling back on their plans to lift Title 42. 

Ironically, it took a federal judge to force the Biden administration to stop requiring passengers on domestic flights to wear a face mask. Yet, the same people want to open the floodgates to illegal aliens without regard to their health status. 

We already see the consequences of failing to deal with the border crisis effectively. At the end of 2021, we learned that drug overdoses surpassed 100,000 last year. Nearly two-thirds of the drug overdose deaths in the past fiscal years were from synthetic opioids— primarily fentanyl.

Every foreigner arrested at the border should have a DNA sample taken, along with their fingerprints. Additionally all cell phones should be confiscated for forensic analysis.

The Constitution doesn't apply at the frontier; it's in a sense, more or less, a "no mans land".

Buses seem pretty deluxe.
These folks don’t seem to have a problem packing into semi-trailers and train boxcars on the way up to the US. So maybe that works to send them on to Wash DC.

The Catholic church is providing them tickets to wherever they want to go when they get to DC.

He has no policy and he doesn’t care.
He will never goto the border.
Just ask Kamala the border czar.

“Ollie Ollie in free” is the policy.

Same as it was under Bush I, Clinton, Bush II and Obama.

Trump was the only one who tried to stop it and they cheated him out rather than let us keep our country.

The border should have been militarized. Two chain linked fences with a minefield in between them would have prevented this ongoing fiasco.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On 9/12/2001, that’s what any patriotic President would do when the country was under attack.

But we had a Bush.

And they had a plan.

A plan to turn the USA into North Mexico.

And EVERY Bush League Republican supports that plan.

All that is need is for one million American citizens to show up at the border and shut it down...

Texas needs to rebuild the Alamo along the entire TX border and fight the mexicans again...
This time with a lot more help...

The price of rigging increases by the hour media applaud.
