While President Joe Biden “scrambles” to address Ukraine’s border war with Russia, the U.S. border sits vulnerable to a host of criminal activity that is quickly seeping into all 50 states.
That’s problematic because in just a year and a half, Biden’s border crisis has made it increasingly easier for transnational criminal organizations raking in hundreds of millions of dollars each year smuggling migrants across the U.S.-Mexico border to become even more profitable and powerful.
The Department of Homeland Security bragged last week that there has been a “500% increase in human smuggling disruption activity compared to similar past operations” and that it has “recently surpassed 5,000 smuggler arrests.” However, those figures are but a small dent in the actual number of smugglers who have successfully escorted hundreds of thousands of illegal border crossers into the U.S. each month since Biden’s inauguration.
In May of 2018, Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen told the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee that human smuggling operations are making “$500 million a year, or more.”
“To be clear, human smuggling operations are lining the pockets of transnational criminal organizations (TCOs). They are not humanitarian endeavors. Smugglers’ priorities have profits over people, and when aliens pay them to get here, they are contributing $500 million a year, or more, to groups that are fueling greater violence and instability in America and the region,” she warned.

A loose border validating the business model of smugglers has been going on at least since a president wagged his bent finger and said that he didn’t have sex with that woman.
They’ve sold out directly to the cartels.
The millions who came here, and I don’t blame them, will share in the same pool of government programs that you and I paid for - a neat trick isn’t it?
Follow the Money!
Biden’s border crisis is the Dems overt plan to “turn out the vote” as they say
Was anyone else watching Biden’s press secretary the other
day when she was talking about immigration?
She said they have done everything they can to get things
under control, but Trump left such a mess they haven’t been
able to get things back on track yet.
These aren’t just lies, they’re massive falsehoods.
Biden keeps saying the stock market is the best it has
ever been, and I’m talking only a few days back when it
was off by $7 Trillion in market cap.
To vote for people on the Left, you have to have severe
brain damage.
Are the Bidens getting a piece of the Cartel money?
Don't 'arrest' - SHOOT!
They have brought back slavery to the US.
Start praying on steroids and more importantly become election judges.
What is the stock of smuggling businesses worth? Can one buy some? Where?
America is back!
The NY Post had an article today that says illegal aliens (’’ immigrants’’) are wandering around on Staten Island literally banging on peoples doors and begging for food.
How else can high explosives for suicide bombers get to mid-America?
We all know what the ultimate goal is, and when it happens
the press will say it was Trump or Santos’ inflamatory
rhetoric that brought it on.
Yeah, talking about our known enemies and their agents
coming across our borders is something we should avoid.
Like hell we will!
