The Biden administration doesn't want to end the border crisis

Published



President Joe Biden inherited the most effective southern border policy from the Trump administration. All he had to do was continue the "remain in Mexico" policy, a strategy that was advantageous to southern border communities in the United States and Mexico and a bane to the cartels.

But border wall contracts were canceled as soon as Biden entered the White House. As a result, there are numerous areas where there is a literal open border. Arizona ranchers in Cochise County, Arizona, are reporting that illegal immigrants are entering their private properties in droves as U.S. Customs and Border Protection is rendered completely powerless. The asylum-seekers at the entry points are so numerous that the officials helming the stations do not have time to vet the background of most who are coming in.
