How the Border Became the Disaster It Is, and How Biden Wants to Make It Worse

Although the Biden administration has made it much worse by ham-handedly trashing successful policies put in place by his predecessor to gain control of the border, the disaster is the natural end-product of a series of specific decisions, likely well-meaning but poorly thought-out, over a period of more than a decade.

Already in FY 2021, Border Patrol agents have apprehended more than 112,000 UACs at the Southwest border.

With one month left for CBP to report year-end statistics for FY 2021, Border Patrol apprehensions at the Southwest border are nearly 1.5 million and may well set a new record, passing the previous record of 1.64 million in 2000.

Judge Gee's order in Flores made illegal entries by families at the Southwest border bad; Biden's policies made them so much worse.

It would be bad enough that the president has no interest in fixing the humanitarian and national-security disaster at the border, but he actually wants to make it exponentially worse.

Biden wants to take the current border disaster and supercharge it, like feeding an already overactive teenage boy Red Bull and cappuccinos.

The administration can close those loopholes, secure the border, and protect human dignity, or it can make the chaos at the border worse.
