Biden promises to get tough. Border to be closed. But by closed he means don’t count 5K unknown foreign nationals per day.
After 3 years of actively promoting, through executive orders, and the power of parole, and with the able assistance of an open border Homeland Security secretary, Biden has orchestrated an invasion of our southern border. Honestly, I can’t think of another example in all of human history of the leader of a country encouraging other people to come and take advantage of his own country’s wealth and resources. Biden has got to be the first leader in history to actually open the gate for the barbarians. But now senile old Joe realizes he, and his party are in trouble.
Very few people take an invasion of their country lightly. Not even Americans, as whittled down as we have become by political correctness. We still believe our money is our money. Our country should be defended, our laws should be protected, and we should retain exclusive rights to our government services. Our hospitals should be open for us, not filled up with foreign nationals. Our schools should be left for our children.
But we are now in this historic position, a self-made catastrophe.
Biden is a career politician through and through. And even though he is an old man, and he has forgotten millions of things; rest assured that he still knows that it’s an election year. He knows he must cover up his vulnerability on the issue.
Joe Biden knows he has three options. Either he has to fix the problem (He really doesn’t want to) or at least appear to fix the problem, or shift blame to someone else, such as House Republicans.
As far as the first option fixing the problem by securing the border. He could secure border by next week. All he’d have to do is announce to people thinking of coming. “I will not offer parole, and you will have to wait in Mexico for a hearing.” And add, “And in any case you will not get welfare, a driver’s license or a work permit.” He could also just declare and a state of an emergency and forcibly close the border.
If he did any of these things, in a matter of a couple weeks the stream of migrants would be cut in half, and over a month or two the dwindling stream would be reduced to a trickle. But of course, he wants a flood of migrants. They can be welfare recipients and potential voters, they can be the new Democrats, they can be the future of a new America.
If Joe doesn’t really want to stop the tide of migrants, which the American people want, how does he survive politically. How does he slip the nose of responsibility for the disaster and wrap it around the head of someone else? First, he must convince people that he is not in favor of open borders. Then he must make people believe that he is not responsible, that his hands are tied.
They must believe that he can’t do anything about it without new laws passed by Congress. Laws written that actually help facilitate the invasion.
That way he can start to shift the blame to Republicans and even toward Donald Trump. After all, Trump is encouraging House Republicans to oppose a bipartisan deal.
Biden pushed this gambit on Friday. He made a seemingly generous, and statesman like offer to Congressional Republicans. He said that he would “shut down the border”, if congress passes a bipartisan bill.” He added “For everyone who is demanding tougher border control, this is the way to do it. If you’re serious about the border crisis, pass a bipartisan bill and I will sign it.”
Now, I have been encouraging a border deal, as at least something, which could help. And it could provide relief to our cities and our social service systems at the state and local level. As they say half a loaf is better than nothing.
I am generally the type of person who believes that you negotiate for what you can get and keep fighting for more down the road. However, the early details of the Senate bill are not good, actually the bipartisan deal might do more harm than good. I have not seen the full bill yet, just a stream of leaked portions. And what is coming out is not good.
First when Biden says he will close the border, understand his definition of a closed border is different.
It seems “closed” means that 5,000 migrants will be allowed in per a day, and after that number has been reached the border would be shut down for the rest of the day. The next morning 5,000 more are let in, and if that number is hit, then shuts it down again.
Next day repeat.
You may say well 5,000 unknown foreign nationals a day is better than the current 10,000 unknown foreign nationals coming in currently. A 50% reduction! Yes, but the 5,000 per day cap may not be temporary, it may be codified in law. So going forward we are still going to allow the invasion just at a slower level. This is unacceptable.
We have already let in millions. At this point the number should be 0 a day, not 5,000. And promising 5,000 entries per day sends the wrong message.
Biden may think he is in a good position with this latest gambit, that is agree that there is a problem and offer to negotiate.
If the deal falls apart, which it probably should, Biden can still say he tried. He will also continue the claim he can’t do anything without congress, thereby blaming them. It is false but the mainstream media will no doubt push that narrative. They will claim Biden offered, “The toughest border security deal in a generation.”
If Republicans agree to such a deal Biden can claim victory. He can still bring in a million migrants and declare the “border is secure.” Amazing.
Biden is not serious; he is just playing election year politics.
Let’s say “No deal.” We should tell Biden and his party; we will see you in November.
Biden could end the invasion at the southern border today. He could codify 5,000 migrant crossings per day.

Meanwhile, remember the “trucker convoy” that was going to take 7,000 trucks to “the border” to protest Biden? Turns out it’s a typical MAGAt clusterfuck.
Though they claimed that up to 40,000 trucks would be joining, only 20 vehicles made up the convoy as it rolled into Jacksonville, Florida 14 hours later. The promised support had not materialized, not a single truck showed up, tires were reportedly slashed, participants got lost, and paranoia struck the group. In short, the convoy was a complete mess.
Almost immediately, one of the vehicles in the convoy got lost, according to messages posted in the Zello walkie talkie app that the group is using to communicate while on the road. Later, when the convoy linked up to discuss evening plans, the meeting quickly descended into an argument about where they were going to be staying. Even trying to meet up at a gas station was difficult: Due to the size of a Buc-ees in South Carolina, convoy members couldn’t locate each other.
And my personal favorite:
Paranoia was also prevalent on the Telegram channels used to coordinate the convoy in different parts of the country. “I hope it’s not another J6 trap. People need to pray for discernment about this.”
Well said Brother and fellow alum David!
I am glad you now realize there is no realistic way to deal with someone who will lie without conscience. You are possibly not old enough to remember the deal Reagan made with Tip O’Neill on immigration. Reagan gave O’Neill what he wanted and O’Neill reneged on his part of the deal. Biden is far worse than O’Neill and any agreement with him and his cronies is worthless. Texas has proved that a solution to the invasion is not only possible but effective. because Biden doesn’t have the guts to confront the Texas National Guard, The Border Control, half the nation’s governors and, most of all, a large number of truly angry people. The last thing he wants is for farmers, ranchers, truckers, and working Americans surrounding DC and shutting down the entrances as is happening now to Paris. Socialism is a basic evil and Americans are getting their noses blooded by it – and that is a wake up call.
Here is the deal you offer that scumbag Biden and the rest of his globalist open border son of a btich party.
1.Remain in Mexico is codified into the immigration law. You must apply for asylum first in the first country you come to instead of shopping for the best welfare system
2.The grounds for asylum specifically rule out the issue of crime in your home country. That is not a reason for asylum. If it were, Baltimore would be eligible for asylum. It has a higher murdr rate than El Salvador.
3. There is mandatory detention at the border. No more catch and release.. or rather stop for a minute and disappear to never go to your immigration hearing
4.The immigration hearing process will be streamlined. No endless hearings until you’ve been in the country for five to ten years.
5. No more citizenship based up birth… no more anchor babies.
6. States are empowered to enforce the border. Local police are required to check alien status and turn anyone encountered over to DHS who must respond within 24 hours…
7. Expedited removal of any illegal in prison will be mandatory for DHS. There will be no more 212c eligibility for any crime at even the lowest felony level.
Start there David if you want to play ball with those assholes who want an open border.
A few days ago you wrote an article urging the GOP to accept the deal… they would love to…As Rand Paul said last week, at least half the GOP caucus wants nothing more to open the border in a deal in order to get all that sweet money for Ukraine and Israel.
At least you woke up. That Lankford GOP scumbag’s deal was the usual warmed over amnesty horse crap…
