The Supreme Court may have made a mistake when it held that federal law allows President Joe Biden to release hundreds of thousands of migrants into the United States every month, but the court did get one thing right: The only way the U.S. government will ever bring the southern border under control will be with the cooperation of Mexico.
It was true in 2014 when President Barack Obama bribed then-Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto with $100 million in exchange for implementing Programa Frontera Sur, which heavily increased the number of border agents on Mexico’s southern border and the number of mobile checkpoints throughout the country.
