It’s the Biden administration’s horrific border policy in a single image: a 2-year-old El Salvadoran girl crossing the border into Texas, clutching a piece of paper with a phone number scrawled on it.
She had allegedly come here on her own to find her parents and was picked up on Sunday, along with a passel of other unaccompanied children.
This is what Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and the rest of the open-borders crew have wrought.
Millions upon millions of illegals arriving and being released into the interior with the flimsiest of instructions to appear for their day in court.
Unemployed and unhoused, they create huge fiscal strains on tiny border towns and cities as far from the border as Chicago and New York.
The generous freebies offered by Dem-run states and cities create a massive draw to ever more border jumpers — it’s known as “La Invitacion.”
The flood tide overwhelms the capacities of our federal border agencies and the Department of Homeland Security.
That means criminals are free to cross and do what they like: Witness the rapid US expansion of Venezuelan gang Tren de Agua, or crimes like the horrific murder of Laken Riley by an illegal.
And the Biden crew has lost track of hundreds of thousands of children who crossed the border without their parents(which Biden’s defenders try to pretend is a mere paperwork snafu).
All as open-borders lunatics screech about human rights and shout that “no human being is illegal.”
Elected officials like Denver Mayor Mike Johnston openly threaten to defy Trump’s coming crackdown.
All for this: A defenseless child utterly at the mercy of any unscrupulous adult and soon to be no more than a poorly-tracked case number in an increasingly overloaded system.
That’s what the “humanitarian” screamers want. And more of it.
Why? Why would anyone support this?
The answers are as simple as they are ugly.
One is the purely partisan motive behind these policies: Those evil Republicans and especially Trump oppose it, so it must be good.
Another: An endless supply of trafficked, sub rosa labor keeps the libs’ DoorDash flowing and their lawns manicured.
Human rights don’t enter into it, just the convenience and ideology of the affluent.
Fact is, ending this travesty — as Trump has promised to do — would make him the real humanitarian.
He and his administration must stay the course and stem the tide.
And make clear once and for all that Biden, Harris, Alejandro Mayorkas, AOC and every other supporter of this catastrophe are the villains here.
