ICYMI – Donald Trump got exactly what he needed.
The situation at the border is finally getting national attention.
With all the negative headlines that Trump has been getting lately, he took advantage of this mess to bash Biden.
Disaster
Trump, on the disaster at the border, stated, “Over the past two years, Joe Biden has invited millions of illegal aliens to infiltrate our country in a gigantic unlawful invasion.
“By abolishing what remains of Title 42, Biden is willfully and deliberately triggering a cataclysm of illegal immigration like the world has never seen before.”
It has gotten so bad, the Democrat mayor of El Paso has finally been forced to declare a state of emergency.
The city is currently seeing about 1,500 migrants a day, a number that would double or triple if Title 42 is removed.
Mayor Oscar Leeser stated, “Our asylum seekers are not safe as we have hundreds and hundreds on the streets.”
In reality, his city is loaded with migrants sleeping on the streets and in airline and train terminals.
Greg Abbott, the Republican governor of Texas, is taking matters into his own hands…
In addition to these container barricades, we:
– are building more border wall & razor wire fencing
– deployed National Guard across the border to turn back illegal immigrants
– deployed DPS to arrest immigrants illegally in Texas
– declared Cartels as terrorist organizations. https://t.co/pD1hYpNt2o— Greg Abbott (@GregAbbott_TX) December 18, 2022
Border Patrol union president Brandon Judd expressed the disappointment in agents at the current situation.
He stated, “We are doing a job we were never supposed to be doing in the first place.
“We are not asylum officers. We are not supposed to be dealing with asylum.
“We are supposed to be an enforcement agency.
“We are supposed to be apprehending those people that are trying to get away, apprehending the bad actors and seizing the drugs that have crossed the border illegally and we’re just not able to do that.”
That is the state of our border.
