I like how you use "media hype" to fit your thoughts, but when some say it's "media hype" concerning Trump, you quickly mock it. Now, that can be considered laughable. You don't have to be an Einstein to understand that the rush of immigrants once Biden was one, was partially due to the fact that they felt it would be easier and more welcome. Didn't he at one point basically say to come on over? Because I know the difference between a manufactured crisis that has nothing to do with who the president is and an actual crisis like Russian interference in American elections, SolarWinds, pandering to foreign dictators and so on and so forth. And no, that never happened. In fact, he told migrants "DON'T come over." I guess Albert Einstein has left the premises. Fun fact : There were MORE border apprehensions in January/February of 2019 than there were in this year. This is typical activity you see every year in the colder months, with the exception that more children are involved. Well, Biden, in 2019 told migrants that they should come over, and then he had to change his tune this March, because of the siege. Albert Einstein's still around.

This is Fox News level framing and poorly represented. That is nowhere near reality or truth. Just to clarify : The comments you are referring to were made in June of 2019, during the Democratic debate in Miami. So you're maintaining those comments directly led to this "siege" in the winter of 2021?

And, it wasn't just him that made illegal immigrants feel welcome to just come on over, it was the liberals and the Democrats in charge as well.

Says your RW propagandists. Dems wouldn't be half bad if they did even a fraction of some of the stuff your propagandists lie about. Biden did not want that. He's got more kids in cages than your orange messiah ever could dream of. Trump was never my "orange messiah." He was simply the lesser of two evils, and I certainly didn't want Hillary in there. How was over racism less evil than covert?

Here's the full quote from 2019, so you can do some actual research and not regurgitate Fox News talking points. "They deserve to be heard. That's who we are," Biden said of those applying for asylum in a 2019 debate moderated by Univision's Jorge Ramos. "We're a nation that says, 'You want to flee, and you're fleeing oppression, you should come.'" That does not equal "Hey, come enter the country." He's referring in a general sense to the country's reputation, clearly. Many of the immigrants that seek asylum are fleeing from poverty, crime, dictatorships and autocracy in Latin American countries.

So, you don't think they felt more at ease to try and get in after a man of that stature says they should all try? Do you actually think only the ones who are actually feeling oppressed are trying to get in? Nobody's going to lie about the real reason they're trying to get in? By him saying that, they definitely felt more welcome. Whoever goes through the whole process and passes are welcome to come. You know, the legal way.

A) HE DIDN'T SAY "TRY TO COME HERE." B) Even if that were true, we would have seen a massive surge post-June 2019...not a year and a half later. The statistics do not match your fantasy here, unfortunately. Do I think people trying to create a better life are lying? Who am I to even remotely try to characterize or assume that's the case? Any imperfect system will have a degree of abuse to it. There is no perfect, universal solution. It's the same crux of the welfare system, unemployment fraud, etc. You're showing a boatload of ignorance here in not understanding how flawed and lengthy the asylum process is. Some people literally cannot wait until that process concludes, for a variety of reasons. By the way, Biden said AFTER the quote you took out of context that he would NOT decriminalize crossing the border illegally. So why would people feel at ease if they were going to be subjected to Title 42? Think. I know the popular talking points are that there's a siege going on...but there isn't. The border hasn't collapsed. The border isn't overflowing with "illegals"....It's more nonsense and propaganda. The reality is that the previous administration's policies were woefully inadequate and failed miserably. Biden's extensions of some of those same policies will likely fail, too.

Nothing substantiates that besides your ill-pointed racism. So they can wait a year and a half for...what, exactly? They keep track of these things, you know? And the statistics say that there were less interventions in 2021 than there were in 2019, you know, when the other guy was president. Nobody said "come over" outside of your paranoia. How long does the asylum process take? Do you know what countries people are fleeing from to get to the United States? You're so far out of your depth, it's a special kind of special.

It just happens to be the influx of immigrants that are coming in droves Latinos. The only special kind of special is your deflections and excuses you come up with every where you go.

There's absolutely instances of people committing murders, and simply heading back over the border. Get out from under the rock. If you think that's far fetched to have heard from people that they could do this or that, and then just simply go back across the border, then you aren't out there amongst the people, etc...

What you're missing is the word "comparison." - Legal, documented people commit far more crimes, both violent and non-violent, than do undocumented citizens. Whether it's far-fetched or not is irrelevant. It's plain stupid, uncorroborated hearsay that is no proof of anything. THAT'S the problem here. Your justifications are based in faulty foundations and you fail to recognize that. But yes, please go on. Dan Crenshaw would be proud.
