Border's Biggest Chumps

The Border Patrol has successfully cleared out the thousands of people camped out illegally under a bridge in Del Rio, TX. Aerial photographs show the land is totally empty of people, tents, and the detritus of an illegal encampment. After the embarrassment of images showing Border Patrol agents herding black illegal aliens like an old slavery roundup, the Biden administration did a remarkably quick job of fixing the mess.

Where did all those people go? There were an estimated 30,000 people, most of them from Haiti, who were crossing the border illegally from Mexico into Del Rio hoping to seek asylum when they reached U.S. soil. How can they possibly process thousands of people seeking asylum so quickly when the usual time frame is measured in months and years, not hours and days.

The unfortunate answer is that the government did what the progressive liberals wanted them to do all along. Most of the people were simply let into the country with a promise to show up to immigration court at some far distant future date. Altogether, 12,400 Haitians were simply released into the country and sent on their merry ways. Another 8,000 voluntarily returned to the Mexican side of the border. About 2,000 were deported to Haiti. And about 5,000 are in some sort of processing still with the CBP. 

Congratulations to the 12,400 Haitians who successfully forced their way into the U.S. The old saying about safety in numbers proves true again. But what about the people who volunteered to go back to Mexico or the unlucky ones who were caught early and sent on a one way flight back to Haiti? I bet they feel like the biggest chumps in the world. If they had stayed together with the rest of the crowd for a few more days, they too would now be in the promised land.

Now that Del Rio is emptied of illegal aliens, I wonder how long it will stay that way? People all over the world will see this news. When will be the next mass storming of the border and occupation of that underpass. Everybody can see that if enough pressure is applied to this progressive president, he will just let almost anybody in rather than face the tough job of actually controlling the border. This is only the beginning. There are no real plans to protect American borders because the liberals want to let as many poor and desperate people in as possible so we can give them free food and shelter and secure their votes in the future.
