After two years spent either ignoring the crisis at the southern border or refusing to blame President Joe Biden, the New York Times tepidly confessed this week that his border policies have, indeed, contributed to the surge in illegal immigration. Why now?
In an email to subscribers, the Times senior writer David Leonhardt writes:
When the U.S. makes it difficult for people to enter the country illegally, fewer people make the journey north to try. When the U.S. sends signals that people will be able to cross the border even without permission, and potentially remain here for years, more people attempt to do so.

I would like to commend NYC for at least not blaming it all on Texas but I'm afraid all the squealing is just an attempt to suck up some more federal money so no kudos from me.

Someone tell me again why Biden isn’t being impeached for his blatant disregard for our national security. He’s not only a failure, he’s doing it purposely.

When illegals started showing up in NYC, the chickens came home to roost.

What is the concept of international borders that have been established by sovereign countries all about? Before Biden, borders were there to ensure that both citizens and aliens comply with the Customs, Immigration, and Public Health laws and regulations of the country they are seeking to enter. Since Biden assumed office, if you have been paying attention at all, you should know by now that Biden and his crew have completely disregarded the traditional concept of Borders, and instead have instituted administration designed “open borders” policies that are outside the perimeters of especially the Customs and Immigration laws, by as far back as the Democrat primaries before the 2020 election when Biden was out there advising the world, that once he was elected, anyone all over the world who believes that they have eligibility for asylum in the USA will be able to gain unlawful entry to the USA by surging to the US borders were the Biden Administration will allow them into the USA “because that’s who we are” to pursue applications for asylum in the USA and would be able to stay in the USA indefinitely without fear of the deportation laws being enforced against them. So far about seven million illegal aliens, now called migrants, have been able to gain unlawful entry to the USA, and after going through some phony processing, and have been allowed to travel to points all over the interior of the USA, causing a situation that has been highlighted by illegal aliens arriving in large numbers in the leftist Democrat run big sanctuary cities where local Democrat politicians want the Federal Government to pay all the associated costs.
Since Biden started that, incoming illegal aliens have already caused a multimillion case backlog on the administrative Immigration Court dockets around the country that has about six hundred administrative immigration judges on board to hear those millions of asylum cases that keep on increasing as tens of thousands of illegal aliens are being allowed to unlawfully enter the USA each day and are being encouraged by the Biden crew and the leftist and socialist Democrats to keep filing new asylum applications. It’s obvious that it will take about ten years for the immigration court to clear that current asylum case backlog, and that is if illegal aliens stop unlawfully gaining entry to the USA and stop filing asylum applications. During all that time according to Biden and the leftist and socialist Democrats all those illegal aliens get to stay in the USA, form family and social groups, take American jobs, be indoctrinated into leftist and socialist Democrat politics, and essentially dig into the USA. Biden and the leftist and socialist Democrats absolutely know that historically about 90% of such past borderline created asylum cases were denied by immigration judges after they determined that the illegal alien applicants were really coming to the USA to take American jobs and make a better life for themselves and their foreign families, economic factors that do not qualify illegal aliens for asylum in the USA, as under the immigration laws illegal aliens with such motives to gain unlawful entry to the USA have always been considered by immigration law to be immigrants without immigrant visas who are inadmissible to the USA and are deportable aliens. In that respect the USA allows over a million legal immigrants who have been granted immigrant visas to enter the USA each year in accordance with the immigration laws. Biden and the leftist and socialist Democrats know all that, so it is obvious that Biden and the Democrats have been misusing the asylum laws as a subterfuge to flood the USA with illegal aliens, mostly all of Third World origin, who are poor, uneducated, unskilled, and non English speaking who coincidentally fit within the minority group categories of Democrat identity politics.
The real long range leftist and socialist Democrat plan, knowing that the vast majority of the illegal aliens that Biden has and is unlawfully allowing into the USA have no eligibility for asylum in the USA, is to instead have the Congress pass the Democrat designed “comprehensive immigration reform bill” that Karine demands that Congress pass almost every day during White House news conferences, that bill which includes a series of Democrat designed “path to citizenship” amnesty and legalization programs that would culminate with tens of millions of illegal aliens being granted US citizenship and being able to embrace the leftist and socialist Democrat political agenda and becoming future Democrat supporters and voters in the future, thus keeping the leftist and socialist Democrats in permanent political power controlling both the Congress and the White House indefinitely. Common sense will tell you if those Biden and Democrat plans succeed they will cause future massive surges of intending illegal aliens to the borderline expecting to be allowed into the USA. When you hear the wimpy Republicans talk about those Biden and leftist and socialist Democrat plans to permanently change the political demographics and much of the population across as much of the USA as possible, you have to wonder if they even have a clue!

Just imagine all the waste and garbage produced by these "migrants" on their trek north? The human waste in particular. The dogs abandoned at the border that many brought with them - their pets I guess, but no free plane ticket for them.

No wonder the left think this newspaper is outstanding. With this critical insight into events in our country they are sharing with us. And it has only been going on since January 6, 2001. I hope the reporter who wrote the article gets a Pulitzer Prize.

Diseases. Whooping cough. TB. And something that tests as strep throat but has none of the symptoms. We DO NOT need these people. Where I live we had scores of illegals gaming the system. Many of them will not work. Steal, yes. Work, no.

Turniphead says: they're not illegal if I say they're not. And besides, alien invaders are just friends that haven't robbed, raped or killed you yet. Relax, hold my Bud Lite!

Their first clue was watching thousands of people walk across the border into Texas, no papers, no shots, no applications.

A folk group, The Avett Bros, has a song, "We Americans," on YouTube/Google offering this sad view of our nation:
Displaced by greed and the arrogance of manifest destiny....Short-sighted to say it was a long time ago. Not even two lifetimes have passed since the days of Lincoln, The sins of Andrew Jackson, and the shame of Jim Crow. And time moves slow when the tragedies are beyond description. I am a son of Uncle Sam, and I struggle to understand the good and evil. But I'm doing the best I can in a place built on stolen land with stolen people.
I've posted this comment several times, only to have it removed each time:
Anyone buying the leftist crap peddled in this song is why Barry Obiden was allowed to steal 2020, only to turn us over to the perverts and Chi-Coms deliberately destroying America. Too bad. We were once a pretty good deal. MAGA

As surely as the handwriting on the wall, as sure as are death and taxes, the paper of ''record,'' the NYT has determined the ship of state is sinking and they no longer want to be the Rat's paper of record. They'd rather put their own spin on the coming disaster once it's over, then pretend there was no previous omen to be seen. Ref. Poe's raven.
