Traitors to the nation: Biden, his administration, Catholic Charities
/Anjie Wong, For the New York Post:
The southern border of the United States has become a suggestion, a line that vanishes a little more each day.
I spent three days on the front lines of the Biden administration’s illegal-immigration crisis, and found a Border Patrol that has changed from an enforcement agency to a concierge service. A pipeline of migrants, fueled by cartel coyotes and abetted by American liberal nongovernmental organizations, enter the nation in droves, and many will likely never return to the countries they left.
Groups of migrant men often wait in the bushes or under the McAllen-Hidalgo International Bridge until dusk to cross over. At sunset, I witnessed a group walking out of the brush and onto dirt road up to the security wall on the American side. The officer I was speaking with took off in her patrol Jeep to direct the men to a “consolidation point” away from the main road where I was standing. The immigrants trudged off, and within minutes, the patrol vehicles left to another area. No action was taken for what was likely an illegal crossing.
Even if the government wanted to secure the border, there aren’t enough officers to police the hundreds arriving each day. So the Border Patrol has made deals with the devils. Mark Morgan, former commissioner of the US Custom and Border Protection agency, said US officers now coordinate with the cartels and coyotes on where and when drop-offs will happen. In the past, large groups of illegal immigrants would cross without notice, and it would take agents two days to process at the centers.
Morgan told me they wanted to avoid scenes like the ones of children being dropped over walls in remote areas. It may be safer, but it also makes the cartel’s job easier, and more lucrative. The cartels have taken control of our border, and we’re negotiating with the hostage-takers.
Once the migrants are processed at the consolidation centers, they are given folders color-coded to the city of their destination. I saw folders with tickets to Houston, Atlanta, Newark and JFK. The folder also contains an airline ticket, a US passport-looking booklet, cash, prepaid credit cards, travel itineraries and an English translation page. The cover of the folder says in capital letters, “PLEASE HELP ME I DO NOT SPEAK ENGLISH. WHAT PLANE DO I NEED TO TAKE? THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP” with a smiley face.
Onto the planes
Each migrant also receives a set of clothing — a gray or black sweatshirt, dark jeans and black sneakers. They get a blanket, a pillow-sized bag of shelf-life food and a carry-on travel bag. Some have received cell phones.
From McAllen Airport, I boarded a plane to Houston with around a dozen migrants. I watched their handlers get them past immigration and security with just a flash of documents, whereas all other passengers had to show identification.
Their handlers, I’m told, are from government-funded NGOs and churches.
There is exhaustion and fear on many of their faces, because the only real winners here are the cartels, to which so many of these illegal migrants owe money. They face years of repayments for the treacherous journey they just made.
Once they arrive at their destination cities, the handlers go missing. I followed one group of female migrants to the airport bathroom and watched as they cleaned up, changed out of the sweatshirts they were given and back into nondescript clothing.
….
In each of those color-coded folders, there’s a letter indicating an appointment with deportation officers around three to four weeks after their arrival. How many will actually show up to that appointment? No one is keeping track of their whereabouts after they disembark from the plane. And many of the places where they are sent, including New York City, are “sanctuary cities,” meaning local authorities will not cooperate on deportations. The Biden administration, meanwhile, has told ICE not to deport anyone if being here illegally is their only crime.
‘Simply staggering’
“What I saw at the border was an invasion of our country,” said Mallory Staples, a congressional candidate from Georgia who also toured the border. “Our Border Patrol Agents and HHS have become nothing more than a government-funded travel service under this administration’s failed policies. The number of illegal immigrants coming across on a daily basis is simply staggering, and it’s created a humanitarian crisis of unbelievable proportions.”
In just a few days, I watched dozens of people going through this same pantomime, and that’s just at one stop on the vast southern border. Thousands, no, millions have arrived during the president’s first year with millions more to come. The Biden administration know it’s happening. They just don’t care.
I don’t think the reporter goes far enough: Biden and his goons are not just indifferent to what’s going on, they are deliberately breaking the laws of the country they swore to serve, and are engaged in an active operation to destroy the territorial integrity of the United states. It won’t happen, but ai’d love to see these people arrested and tried for treason when sanity returns to the country, and its enemies evicted from office.
UPDATE: Increasing rumbling among Republicans that Biden will be impeached for “failure to secure the borders”. Counting chickens before they hatch, department, I know, but it’s nice to contemplate.
