Border crossings

The reason the border crossing were so low compared to today was that Trump instigated a remain in Mexico policy. Migrants were required to stay on the Mexican side while they awaited the evaluation of their asylum request. Biden stopped this policy saying it was too dangerous to remain in Mexico, the same country they just spent months crossing. Today several thousand amassed on the border at El Paso. Thousands of migrants have once again flooded over the border from Mexico at El Paso, Texas — many of whom had reportedly been kidnapped by cartels, rescued by the Mexican army, then brought to the border by the country’s police and told to turn themselves in to US authorities. On Sunday alone, 2,400 mostly from South America crossed the border at El Paso. They paid their fees to the cartels and then the Mexican authorities picked them up and bused them to the border. Mexico is now expediting the passage to the US. This means more money for the cartels, more young people dying from fentanyl, more women and girls being assaulted and more chaos along the border and this will all be accelerated in a few days when title 42 is eliminated. This is not considered news worth reporting by most media.
