There has been a staggering increase in crimes of all types by illegal aliens since Biden took office three years ago. Reported encounters for illegal drug possession and trafficking had declined each year of the Trump administration but then skyrocketed to more than five times Trump’s 2020 level for every year of the Biden administration.
Biden’s henchmen may have rethought their strategy after 25 Republican governors – everyone except the ultra-liberal state governor of Vermont – stated their full support for Texas officials in resisting the demands by Biden to cut the wire fencing. The governors sided with Texas Gov. Greg Abbott for “stepping up to protect American citizens from historic levels of illegal immigrants, deadly drugs like fentanyl, and terrorists entering our country.”
South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem even offered to personally drive to Texas to add more wire for concertina fencing if needed. Texas should consider closing its entire border with this barbed fencing now.
Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY), the globalist Minority Leader in the Senate, had been obsessed with sending another $60 billion to Ukraine, in exchange for allocating a small fraction of that sum to border security. He complained about Trump’s influence over members of Congress, but it was Biden who defiantly allowed a record number of migrants to cross into Texas and repeatedly sued Texas, making any potential compromise a non-starter.
Biden has had three years to prove that he can secure our borders, but instead, he has done the opposite, with devastating effects on Texas and our entire country. After rejecting many opportunities to protect our southern border throughout his administration, it is insulting for Biden and Democrats to pretend that they will finally reverse their open border policies on the eve of the presidential election.
