OPINION:
We are in trouble. Authorities estimate more than 1,000 illegal immigrants a day are crossing our southern border as a result of Biden’s open-border policies. They illegally cross untouched, get away and disappear into the country. They are here now, and nobody cares or is interested in stopping the problem.
We need to know who they are, what their intentions are, whether they have COVID-19 and why are they hiding. It’s very likely some are criminals, gang members, terrorists and carrying diseases or drugs. And what countries are they coming from? There must be a reason they don’t want to get caught.
This has to be a national security concern. The first responsibility of our leaders is to protect us, and that’s not happening.
Do we have COVID-19 super spreaders? President Biden and Dr. Anthony Fauci aren’t concerned and they should be.
A law-enforcement source within U.S. Customs and Border Protection says more than 200,000 illegal immigrants have dodged border-patrol apprehension so far this fiscal year. The source says more than 45,000 of those people avoided capture in the past 30 days, frustrating border leadership.
Imagine if 300,000 or more enter our country illegally and we don’t know who they are, where they came from or where they are now.
This is self-inflected and everybody should be alarmed about it.
The main question is, Why are they letting this happen? Thanks, Mr. Biden.
