What was once known as the Southern border of the United States is essentially nonexistent in this time of Biden regime misrule, and so it was no surprise Wednesday when Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz tweeted some figures showing just how bad the border area has become:
Past 48 Hours…
– 10,070 Apprehensions
– 52 lbs. of Fentanyl
– 38 lbs. of Ecstasy
– 11 lbs. of Meth
– 11 lbs. of Cocaine
– $48,000 Seized
– 20 Firearms
– 5 Stolen Vehicles Recovered
– 5 Sex Offenders
– 4 Warrants
– 1 Gang Member
Significant numbers for just 2 days!
Indeed, and it was just business as usual for the border, although Ortiz didn’t mention the terrorists. It came to light last October that up to that point in 2022, the Border Patrol had caught at least 98 people at the border who are on terror watchlists. There is no indication that they’ve stopped coming since then. Terrorists can see what’s happening at the border as much as anyone else can; why shouldn’t they take advantage of the mess Old Joe has made? And those 98, of course, were just the ones who got caught.
Fox News reported that “the number of migrant encounters at the U.S. southern border climbed to a record more than 227,000 during the month of September and more than 2.3 million for fiscal year 2022, according to data from U.S. Customs and Border Protection.” That data also shows that “there were 20 known or suspected terrorists arrested at the southern border in September, bringing the total terror watchlist arrests at the border for the fiscal year 2022 to 98. The number of terror watchlist arrests at the border for the last five years combined was 26.”
What did Old Joe and his handlers say about this? Nothing, of course, because they weren’t challenged by the sycophantic Leftist propagandists we call “journalists.” And the administration had every reason to stonewall any inquiry, as nothing demonstrated the catastrophe that is the Biden regime’s handling of the border crisis more vividly than the entry of known terrorists into the United States.
The terror risk involved in the open border has long been known. U.S. Customs and Border Protection reported as far back as Feb. 3, 2021 that “Yuma Sector Border Patrol agents arrested a group of 11 Iranian citizens who illegally crossed the border into the United States….Yuma Sector agents apprehended eight Iranian nationals in FY2020, compared to just 14 from all other border patrol sectors combined. So far in FY2021, Yuma Sector agents have apprehend [sic] 14 nationals from Iran.”
Rep. John Katko (R-N.Y.) asserted in March 2021 that “individuals that they have on the watchlist for terrorism are now starting to exploit the southern border. We need to wake up.”
Then in August 2021, former Border Patrol chief Rodney Scott warned that the Southern border was “a national security crisis,” with “TSDBs at a level we have never seen before. That’s a real threat.” In October, he said on Fox News that “we have terrorist threats we can’t get into in this type of a forum but they are real.”
Yes, they are, and they’re entirely Biden’s handlers’ fault. Former Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Mark Morgan said Monday that border agents are “demoralized” with the border “wide open.” He added that “every aspect of our public health, safety, national security is being jeopardized.” Over 7,000 migrants cross the border every day as it is, and once Title 42, a Trump administration attempt to control the wave of migrants, is ended as Biden’s handlers plan to do next month, that number is expected to jump to 18,000 per day.
Morgan observed that one group that is taking advantage of this is the drug cartels. “They know, because of this administration, our borders are wide open,” Morgan said. “We literally handed over operational control to the cartels. It’s way beyond the millions that have been smuggled in this country.” Not just terrorists, but drug cartels as well. The nightmare never ends.
Make no mistake: this has all been done on purpose. The Biden administration, Morgan added, “opened our borders and intentionally created and facilitated a catastrophic crisis on the southwest border that we’ve never seen in our lifetime.” Why would they do such a thing? You know the answer. Morgan explained: “Their priorities [are] to get as many illegal aliens in this country because – it’s disgusting – but because they see a perceived political benefit.”
The Left seems intent on destroying the country in pursuit of unchallenged political power within it. What kind of a country they’ll be ruling over once it is overrun with migrants and its economic power entirely outsourced or outpaced doesn’t seem to be a question that ever crosses their minds. How they’ll be able to pay for all their new welfare recipients once the American middle class is entirely taxed out of existence is also not a priority consideration for them.
The only thing that matters is gaining and securing political power indefinitely. But this might easily become a Pyrrhic victory.

Thank God Australia is an island continent. BUT – our coastline is massive and there are many places that cannot be patrolled so illegals try to come by boat. Some succeed, and they are eventually caught and sent to offshore places like New guinea. Then we get a change of government with some sympathetic Leftists and they allow these illegals to get to the mainland. The illegals are all Muslim of course – just what we need; people to forment hatred and bleed our social security system dry by relying on the taxpayers generosity to support them.
It is also noticeable that these illegal arrivals are almost always fghting-age males. Once they are accepted they send for their family back in their country of origin to join them. This means 1 illegal becomes 6 – 10!

This is a de facto invasion happening over months or even years ..a SLOW migrant coup d’etat
This only reinforces what I already knew , insomuch, the Dem-Bolsheviks used a flu=like virus to create a national emergency, then rigged the elections with ”mail in voting” It was a Flu d’etat !
20 20 was their ”1917 moment ”; the time to make their move and seize the levers of power with a soft coup . They don’t EVER intend to give up power again as they’ll rig every election like they did in 2022 and 2020 . For them it’s CHECKMATE !
Moreover, they have created a street militia in the BLM and Antifa mobs not dissimilar to Weimar Germany who can be incited to riot by their allies in the MSM
The US government is in the hands of Dem -Bolsheviks ; I wish it wasn’t so, but it simply is ..moreover, they are only going to leave at the barrel of a gun . Furthermore, they have used the Jan 6th protests against an obviously stolen election as their ”Reichstag Fire ”event to crush opposition , and in the future if there is a bombing or shooting of one of their leaders then they”ll use it as their ”Murder of Kirov ” moment to launch a great purge of any potential opposition !

“How they’ll be able to pay for all their new welfare recipients once the American middle class is entirely taxed out of existence is also not a priority consideration for them.” Sounds to me like Cloward-Piven on steroids. The object (besides importing a recipient class of new Dem voters) is to collapse our system, at which point, these lunatics believe, the population will demand the replacement of capitalism with socialism.

These power-lusting altruist-collectivists are magical thinkers always evading the facts of reality. Who will produce the products and services needed for survival and prosperity in a country of serfs? In their magical thinking heads they simply evade the facts of reality, like children do, and they say to themselves “Somehow the results of capitalism will still be here without capitalism”.
“The majority of those who are loosely identified by the term “liberals” are afraid to let themselves discover that what they advocate is statism. They do not want to accept the full meaning of their goal; they want to keep all the advantages and effects of capitalism, while destroying the cause, and they want to establish statism without its necessary effects. They do not want to know or to admit that they are the champions of dictatorship and slavery….
The intellectuals and the so-called idealists were determined to make socialism work. How? By that magic means of all irrationalists: somehow.” – Ayn Rand
Steve Chavez says
They’re purposefully letting in MILLIONS OF UNDOCUMENTED DEMOCRATS who Biden will soon grant AMNESTY to forty million new Democrat voters. When, not if, he does this, the Democrat machine will register millions, send out mail-in ballots to all of them which will give the Democrats the numbers to RULE FOREVER! The One-Party Rule that they so cherish and have supported around the world.
This means our Country’s direction, and its leaders, will be chosen by people who will always wave their flag WHILE BURNING OURS!
THIS IS ALSO MODERN-DAY SLAVERY! Yes, they’re coming here willingly, but once here, they are the cheap labor taking away jobs. IN SANTA FE, a very wealthy city, the richest go to an area near the historic plaza to hire day laborers, all Latinos, mostly Mexicans. There are at least fifty men who will haggle over pay. Most take what the employer offers, and most of the work is not yard work. So instead of hiring a contractor, they hire unskilled labor because all of the fifty men say can accomplish any job even if they know nothing about it. “Si! Si! Five dolares.”
DEMOCRATS: THE PARTY OF SLAVERY… THE KKK, AND MODERN DAY SLAVERY!

The power luster’s goal is power. Naked power. Do you think Adolf Hitler, Stalin, Castro, or Saddam Hussein, would care about destroying their countries and sending everyone into poverty and misery so long as they lived better than their serfs and ruled over them? They would not care.
“.Now if you were a little more intelligent—like your ex-wife, for instance— you’d ask: What of us, the rulers? What of me, Ellsworth Monkton Toohey? And I’d say, Yes, you’re right. I’ll achieve no more than you will. I’ll have no purpose save to keep you contented. To lie, to flatter you, to praise you, to inflate your vanity. To make speeches about the people and the common good. Peter, my poor old friend, I’m the most selfless man you’ve ever known. I have less independence than you, whom I just forced to sell your soul. You’ve used people at least for the sake of what you could get from them for yourself. I want nothing for myself….

I use people for the sake of what I can do to them. It’s my only function and satisfaction. I have no private purpose. I want power. I want my world of the future. Let all live for all. Let all sacrifice and none profit. Let all suffer and none enjoy. Let progress stop. Let all stagnate. There’s equality in stagnation. All subjugated to the will of all. Universal slavery—without even the dignity of a master. Slavery to slavery. A great circle—and a total equality. The world of the future….” – “The Soul Of A Collectivist” from “The Fountainhead”

Many Democrats understand that the welfare checks for foreign children will encourage more illegal immigration, he said:
They know what’s going on. But they know that they can’t say what their true goal is, which is actual open borders with open, uncontrolled migration both ways. And this is a step toward getting rid of borders.
“It’s a globalist mindset and it welcomes anything that moves toward open borders,” he concluded. NEIL MUNRO

Texas GOP Rep. Tony Gonzales wants to allow an unlimited inflow of foreign workers into the jobs that otherwise would go to better paid Americans.
The inflow “needs to be where anybody who wants to come and work can do so,” Gonzales told Semafor.com for an April 9 post.
Gonzales’ open border for legal migrant employees is the flip side of his call for tighter border curbs against illegal migration:
Just when you think it can’t get any worse, it does … [so] how do you create a work visa program that encourages [illegal migrants] … come [legally] and work and live the American dream through the front door?

australia has now become a province of china , all mainland states are now governed by marxists with marxist dan andrews leading the charge to kow tow to china at the same time telling everyone the threat china poses . the current fed. govt. intends to bus in 200,000 migrants . considering the availability of housing does not meet the needs of people already here where will they put them ? no one in the media has asked the question and no one seems to care . that’s because all of the media in aust. as in the u.s. are a propaganda arm of the marxist elite than run aust. they justify it by telling the gullible populace that we have a labor shortage the go to answer for , ” we are murdering the unborn our future labour pool ” so we have to have more migrants for the shortfall . multiculturalism is a failed marxist tool and continues apace . as with all leftists they think they will be placed in country areas to boost shortfalls in population and workforce but have no way of implementing the policy . aust. another modern day titanic .
