Biden’s Border Baloney: With This President in Office, There is No Hope That Our Southern Border Will Be Secured; Numbers Don’t Lie: America’s Border Crisis Is Biden-Made

Biden’s border baloney:
With this president in office, there is no hope that our southern border will be secured
Three events over the past two weeks should focus Americans on how President Biden is making the national security crisis on our southern border worse.
First, Mr. Biden is taking federal air marshals from their duty to protect the air-traveling public and redeploying them to the border to help “process” — i.e., release — illegal aliens into the country.
Second, the Pentagon warned of a resurgence of the ISIS terrorist group, which is reportedly planning revenge against the U.S. for strikes that killed several of its leaders in Syria.
Third, Mr. Biden’s new border plan, announced on Jan. 5, will purportedly limit the number of asylum-seekers coming into the country by, for example, supposedly limiting the number to 30,000 immigrants from each of Venezuela, Cuba, Nicaragua and Haiti. The new policy will send another 30,000 back each month to Mexico. Given Mr. Biden’s track record, we cannot expect these limits to be enforced.
Since Mr. Biden came into office, roughly 5 million aliens have crossed our southern border illegally. Four million of them encountered the Border Patrol, which processes them and releases them into the country. The other million are “gotaways” who slip into the nation unimpeded, some with malicious intent.
About 844,000 people have come across the border just since Oct. 1, not counting the “gotaways.” Drug cartels and other gangs have made millions or billions smuggling illegals into the U.S.
The Border Patrol reports that in 2022 alone, 98 people on the government’s terrorist watchlist have tried to enter the country and have been detained. That obviously doesn’t count watchlist terrorists among the “gotaways” and those with terrorist intent not on the watchlist. --->READ MORE HERE

Numbers Don’t Lie: America’s Border Crisis Is Biden-Made:
The Biden administration’s open-border policies and its refusal to fully enforce federal immigration laws have imposed huge costs on local communities across the country. Border states are groaning under the enormous cost of sheltering, feeding, educating, policing, and providing medical care for tens of thousands of illegal aliens.
There are humanitarian costs, as well, paid by those who are assaulted and killed by the human traffickers, those who die from the fentanyl flooding across the border, and those victimized by vicious criminals who have entered illegally.
This crisis is unprecedented. And it is entirely man-made. Put more precisely: It is Biden-made.
The numbers don’t lie. In fiscal year 2022, ending Sept. 30, U.S. Customs and Border Protection reported a record 2.76 million alien “encounters” at our border. CBP reported another 278,102 in October and an even-more-staggering 283,189 in November. More than 3 million illegal aliens will have crossed our border illegally in the past 15 months—all because of the administration’s irresponsible stewardship of the Department of Homeland Security.
And that number is conservative. It doesn’t include the “gotaways”— those who made it across the border illegally, without getting caught. Border officials estimate there were at least 600,000 “gotaways” in fiscal year 2022, compared to only 60,000 in fiscal year 2020.
Supporters of open-border policies argue that this flood of illegal aliens is beneficial. Try telling that to the victims of violent crimes committed by illegal aliens who should never have been allowed to enter the United States. --->READ MORE HERE
