Biden's Border Crisis Is Bad, He's Just Better At Hiding It

President Joe Biden and his top deputies are pushing shell-game accounting and the untruthful narrative that "Non-citizen" crossings over the U.S. southwest border have plummeted by up to "70 percent," so there's nothing to see here, folks.

Despite the claimed success of the administration's new "Stiffer consequences" border management plan since the end of the Title 42 pandemic-era instant-expulsion policy on May 11, the historic mass migration crisis rages at full throttle into its third straight year.

First, the Biden administration is ushering in would-be border jumpers through what it calls a "Historic expansion" of granting humanitarian fast-pass entrance slips to intending border jumpers via a cell-phone app called "CBP-One." This historically expanded program allows those who intended to cross illegally between land ports of entry to now be funneled through them and thus not be counted in the politically problematic monthly "Illegal crossings" category.

The administration so far has maintained the fiction of steep declines in foreign national border entries through secrecy.

Former Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Mark Morgan, now a visiting fellow for the Heritage Foundation, did some arithmetic on encounters with "Inadmissible aliens" at the southern border land ports and at interior airports through which all CBP-One beneficiaries enter.

That falls in the historic and stratospheric territory of the Biden border crisis.

In all three of these ways, the border crisis continues at the same historic, stratospheric levels as when Biden took office - the only difference being that Fox News drones can see very little of any of this.
