So, Joe Biden is a champion at something after 50-years in DC.

This is just an obvious and deliberate attempt at gaining future Democrat voters.

Biden basically told people during the campaign that if he won they could come.


The Border Patrol set its all-time annual record for arrests along the southern border in fiscal year 2021, according to new data Friday that puts a grim exclamation point on President Biden’s stewardship of the boundary.
The 1,659,206 arrests recorded over the last 12 months tops fiscal year 2000, the previous record holder, by about 15,000.
Of those the Border Patrol arrested, nearly 500,000 were either released outright or turned over to other federal agencies within the U.S. without an immediate clear pathway toward deportation, signaling most of those were likely released into the country.



In addition to the Border Patrol, which snares illegal immigrants who try to sneak in between the ports of entry, officers along the southern border encountered another 75,000 or so illegal immigrants who tried to come through the official border crossings without authorization.
In September alone, Border Patrol agents and Customs and Border Protection officers recorded 192,001 encounters with illegal immigrants. That’s the worst September on record, though the numbers are a slight improvement on July and August, when more than 200,000 encounters were recorded each month.
Almost all of the chaos has happened in the eight months since President Biden has held the reins, with 83% of the Border Patrol’s yearly arrests coming during that time.
...
Security experts say the bigger explanation is Mr. Biden’s changes to policy here at home, which have relaxed enforcement and given migrants hope that they might be able to gain a foothold here. In many cases they’re correct.
During the last full month under President Trump in December, Border Patrol agents caught and released just 17 people. In July, under Mr. Biden, that number was more than 60,000.

That does not include the "Got Aways".

That's true. I remember back to when we were still trying to stop people from illegally entering our country (pre Biden). Back then they said that for every illegal alien they caught, ten got past the border patrol. So if 200K are getting caught and released into our country every month, just imagine how many are slipping through while the BP agents are all occupied playing babysitting and travel agent for illegal aliens. This is the worst debacle any President has ever caused.
