prompting border surge

Original Article

Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador asserted that the Biden administration’s immigration policies have contributed to a surge of migrants that has overwhelmed facilities at the southern border in recent weeks. President Biden reversed several Trump-era immigration measures, loosening restrictions for asylum claimants and ending a policy that required migrants to remain in Mexico while making their case to enter the United States. Lopez Obrador said the changes prompted migrants fleeing harsh conditions in Central America to risk the journey to the border.

Seems to me that Mexico's failure to secure their southern border is the reason for the crisis too.

A border surge? While out in the forest, should you leave goodies strewn around your campsite, bears will show up. If you leave goodies on the picnic table, the wildlife will show up. People aren't much different . . . just the thought of "free goodies" . . . people will show up. The offer of free goodies at the border, people will show up. Why is a border surge a big surprise to any body, much less our "leaders''?

This is important. Biden has said that they “talked” and had a very good understanding. Another lie.

Reading the replies, I don’t understand the condescension, the dismissal of the importance of Lopez Obrador’s public statement. He played a big part in the success of President Trump’s border program. Why do we say demeaning things?

Everyone up to their necks in this are finger pointing and pleading powerlessness. The Mexicans COULD control their southern border. The Mexicans could control the transit of people north. Mexico, like its Central American counterparts, has a tradition of crooked government, particularly the locals, where the police are expected to supplement their meager wages with “la morbita,” or petty bribery. Anyone who has spent time in the region knows the game. It's nothing personal...it is the "tax", as I was once told before handing over two bucks to a Mexican immigration officer. Of course, Biden knows nothing, which may be true. Homeland Security (a post-9/11 joke) goes along with the latest lawbreaking policy. No one there is operating on principle. Local and state authorities, the same clowns shutting down businesses for over a year, claim powerlessness, but beg for more "border control" money. One governor sent 500 NG troops to the border...to observe. Big deal. I don't see any state lawsuits versus the Feds to force enforcement, to force adherence to the laws and processes. It's hard to escape the thought this is all a scam, a bi-partisan scam to benefit the US Chamber of Commerce. Meanwhile, no jobs for our domestic "poor"...

The Biden administration continues to show itself to be an empty suit on foreign policy. In the wake of the crisis, er, challenges on the southern border, Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez called Biden “the migrant president.” After President Biden confirmed in an interview that yes, Russian President Vladimir Putin is a “killer,” Putin wished Biden good health and challenged Biden to a “basically live … open, direct discussion.” Add China to the list of countries making us a laughingstock.

Fox News confirmed Sunday that Border Patrol agents in the Rio Grande Valley Sector (RGV) have begun to process and release illegal border crossers who claim asylum without issuing a Notice to Appear (NTA) - allowing them to depart custody without scheduling a court date for a hearing. The unprecedented move places the responsibility of seeking an asylum hearing on the migrants through Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) or legal assistance. Multiple Border Patrol agents confirmed the new process to Fox News, revealing that they have been directed to use prosecutorial discretion (PD) to forgo the hours-long process of paperwork required to issue an NTA amid the surge of migrants

As crossings along the southern border surge to near-record levels, the Biden administration is considering flying migrants to states near the Canadian border, according to a report. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) requested the plane support from Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Friday after 1,000 migrant families and unaccompanied minors crossed the Rio Grande into South Texas Friday morning, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials told The Washington Post. Border agents still have another 1,000 migrants they were unable to process last night, according to communications reviewed by the Post.

Joe Biden sold the American people a bill of goods in 2020. He is not a moderate, and he will make his mark no matter what damage it does to our institutions, traditions, or country. Biden is not even a Trojan horse for the radical Left. He is leading the charge to transform the country. Remember how Joe Biden pushed back on Kamala Harris in a debate? Biden said he had no executive authority to ban assault weapons, and that there were many limits on changes using that tool. Compare that to the statement of Press Secretary Jen Psaki this week: “We are considering a range of levers, including

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — The mayor of Oakland, California, on Tuesday announced a privately funded program that will give low-income families of color $500 per month with no rules on how they can spend it. The program is the latest experiment with a “guaranteed income,” an idea that giving poor people a set amount of money each month helps ease the stresses of poverty that often lead to poor health while hindering their ability to find full-time work. The idea isn’t new, but it’s having a revival across the U.S. after some mayors launched small, temporary programs across the country in
