The real cruelty of Biden’s open border policy — it hurts low-income Americans:
When it comes to “open borders,” Joe Biden has gone as far as a president can go without actually abolishing them. This June alone, US Customs and Border Protection apprehended more than 200,000 people at the southern border, leading Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to bus migrants to Washington, DC, and New York, liberal “sanctuary cities” whose police departments don’t cooperate with federal immigration officials.
Such progressive posturing may soon run out of steam: Faced with a looming humanitarian crisis, the Democratic mayors of both cities, Eric Adams of New York and Muriel Bowser of DC, are now begging the federal government for assistance.
Yet perhaps the most surprising element of all this chaos is the way the media have blamed the right for this crisis. “Cold-Blooded Texas Guv Vows to Dump Asylum Seekers in the Middle of D.C.,” was how The Daily Beast covered the story. “GOP Governors Cause Havoc by Busing Migrants to the East Coast,” explained The New York Times. White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre called Abbott’s policy “shameful” and a “political ploy.”
The migrants themselves, however, are under no illusions about who deserves credit for their arrival in the US. “Biden promised us that everything was going to change,” one migrant told reporters back in March. “He promised the Haitian community he will help them,” a Haitian migrant told Fox News. “I just need [the US] to tell me when we can cross,” a Honduran woman told Politico. --->READ MORE HERE

Liberal immigration policies hit blacks hard:
Vice President Kamala Harris — finally — just visited the border. After months of sending mixed signals at would-be illegal crossers (and the cruel smugglers who make their journeys possible), Harris and her boss, President Biden, appear to be waking, at least rhetorically, to the chaos and suffering open borders create.
But the bedlam along the border isn’t the only crisis arising from Biden-Harris immigration policies. There is also a deeper, and less visible, labor-economics crisis, and it affects one of America’s most important group of citizens: African-Americans. Simply put, open borders hit black workers especially hard.
More than 9 percent of black workers are jobless, compared to 5.1 percent of white workers. The labor force participation rate — the share of working-age, non-incarcerated adults who either have jobs or are actively looking for them — dropped 2.2 percentage points for blacks over the course of the pandemic, but only 1.8 percentage points for whites.
In other words, blacks aren’t merely more likely to be unemployed. They’re also more likely to have gotten so discouraged by a lack of suitable opportunities that they’ve abandoned their job hunts entirely. --->READ MORE HERE

Biden’s Open Border Attracting the World’s Poor: ‘I Don’t Have a Dollar’"
President Joe Biden’s policies at the United States-Mexico border are attracting the most vulnerable and poorest foreign nationals, a new report details.
As most border crossers and illegal aliens are being directly released into the U.S. interior, the Biden administration is helping entice foreign nationals in the most desperate circumstances to make the often-deadly journey to the southern border. Most likely do not have valid claims for asylum.
A report from Noticias Telemundo Investiga details how border crossers and illegal aliens being released into American communities are increasingly arriving with nothing.
“I don’t have a dollar to live on,” one of 15 border crossers told Noticias Telemundo Investiga. In another case, a 70-year-old border crosser waited in line at a homeless shelter hoping he would be able to get a pair of underwear and a hot shower. --->READ MORE HERE
