Tomorrow the border will become even more of a mess. On May 11 the Biden administration will be abondoning the Title 42 Apprehension policy and it is projected that there will be a dramitic INCRERASE in illegal immigration.
Biden, May 9, " the southern border with Mexico would be chaotic for a while."
Customs and Border Patrol, May 9, announced they authorize all Border Patrol sectors to begin ‘safe’ street releases of migrants to communities across the border if NGO shelters and CBP facilities do not have the capacity to hold them (which will be the case.)
Biden’s border policies continue to be a mess, put many innocents at risk AND allow Mexican cartels to get rich.
The Founders had three criteria for new immigrants: their qualifications; their assimilation; and their allegiance.
Today, I have no clue what Biden's criteria or goals are.
I support immigration. A lot of immigration. But legal immigration, with a mix of merit based (engineers, scientists, entrepreneurs, doctors, mathematicians, etc.) and opportunity-based (people who want to work hard, adopt American values, and get ahead).
Illegal immigration continues to be out of control as shown in the Southwest Border Apprehension data kept by the Customs and Border Patrol. These are the people surrendering to CBP of intercepted by CPB, most of who are claiming asylum and being released as their claims (majority of which are invalid) are being adjudicated. We do not know how many people get through without being apprehended.
In addition, due to a legally questionable Biden Executive Order, now asylum seekers can avoid apprehension (and thus being included in the data) by using an app to apply for asylum. Most, 99%, of these requesters are getting approval to enter the US while their claim (once again for the most art invalid).
