Simply put, the federal agencies charged with policing the border are overwhelmed, and have been for months. U.S. Customs and Border Protection, which manages the ports of entry and is charged with processing and transporting anyone caught crossing the border illegally, has had to divert its attention from the ports of entry to help deal with soaring numbers of families and unaccompanied children apprehended by Border Patrol and placed in CBP custody.
Indeed, the Biden administration was so overwhelmed with the volume of minors in federal custody in March, it called for volunteers from across the federal government to help process kids at the border and assist overwhelmed CBP officers in overcrowded border facilities. Even now, thousands of migrant children languish in unlicensed and often dangerous emergency shelters that the Biden administration authorized after revoking a host of Trump-era border restrictions.
One of the only Trump-era restrictions Biden retained is the authority to expel migrants under what’s called Title 42, a public health order Trump invoked in the earlier days of the pandemic to prevent the spread of coronavirus in federal border facilities and among federal border officials. Under Trump, the vast majority of all illegal border-crossers, including families, were expelled back to Mexico, where those seeking asylum in the United States were required to wait for the adjudication of their cases under the Remain in Mexico policy.
Biden ended that policy but kept part of the Title 42 authority in place, which has allowed for the rapid expulsion of most single adults apprehended at the border since Biden took office in January. If Title 42 is scrapped as part of the lifting of travel restrictions, it will likely trigger a new and even larger surge in illegal immigration. One CBP official told CNN earlier this month, “We don’t have the manpower, and that is the reality.”
How bad is the border crisis right now? One indication that it’s getting worse is that the corporate press has largely stopped covering it. Another is that two weeks into July, CBP still has not released the border numbers for June. There’s no good reason for this, unless border authorities are so overwhelmed they haven’t been able to process the people they’ve apprehended or run basic background checks on them.
More likely, the Biden administration doesn’t want the numbers to come out for political reasons. In May, federal authorities made more than 180,000 apprehensions at the southwest border, a record for that month. All told this fiscal year, excluding June, border apprehensions have nearly exceeded 930,000 — a 20-year high.
...
All of it speaks to the Biden administration’s haphazard, disorganized, and blatantly political approach to managing an increasingly chaotic border, which is about to get worse.

There is No crisis. Republican rags are beating it up. There is no doomsday coming. Settle down.
8 years won't take long to go.
 
Colin norris * Eight years? Scum like Abrams, Raffensperger, Maricopa county obstructionists, the US DOJ, Shapiro, Witmer and the rest, including all their peons, deserve life in prison for their part in this coup. The Democrat party and the Marxism it is breeding is a bigger threat to our constitution and country than anything.

He is the border crisis.

Trump had the border handled quite well.

Biden screwed it up by stopping construction on the fully funded wall. Handcuffing ICE and the Border Patrol and inviting thousands of illegals to come on in. Illegals that cost we tax payers billions every year.

What an incompetent ass that man is.

That might be so but I think you are over reacting driven by pure hatred and nothing else.
You have no evidence of any Marxism institutionalised in this country. That again is just more right wing propaganda. In fact, It's very ignorant and childish to even suggest it.

There is No bills or efforts by the democrats to change the constitution. That's a load of bullshit. It's always a scare tactic used by dickheads when they have nothing left.

There was no coup as you say. The process was adhered to but biden had better information than your boys. He understood the anger from republicans who felt betrayed by trump. His polling included more than MAGA hats as gifts.
He brilliantly convinced them to vote Democrat and they did. The statistics are there if you want to check.

So don't come with your diatribe of hate and lies. You lot were not smart enough to out maneuver the old Joe. His 40 odd years in government was not wasted.
Your 4 years following trump was.
Get over it.

500,000 Kids, 30 Million Hours: Trump’s Vast Expansion of Child Detention​

U.S. Customs and Border Protection carried out almost half a million child detentions during the Trump administration, data shows. More kids were held for 72 hours or more.​


The number of children being held in by US Customs and Border Protection (CPB) has dropped 88% between late March and late April, according to government officials.
The decrease comes as a task force set up by President Joe Biden begins to reunite families that were separated under his predecessor Donald Trump's "zero tolerance" policy.
Mr Biden has urged migrants not to attempt to travel to the US border - "Don't leave your town or city or community," he has said - but with Mr Trump out of office, some believe immigration to the US is now more possible.

 
It's intentional. It's a war. Demography is the goal. That's why I see all you Republican retards talking about taking control in the next election. You people are idiots. That's NEVER going to happen again.
Secession is the only solution.

That's funny. You question the OP's source and when I show you CNN reporting that a record 2million migrants could becoming across the border you claim: "Republican rags are beating it up". You seem lost.

Nah. He just doesn't want to acknowledge the idiot he voted for has made one clusterfuck of the border.

The border Trump had nailed down.

He also thinks Biden will be a two term POTUS. Hope he's ready for a disappointment. Biden had made one giant mess since he's been POTUS. I doubt anyone would vote for his ass for a second term.

The present situation defies logic. Biden is supporting policy decisions that are part of a wish list from the left-leaning Democrats but no effort has been made to assess the possible consequences of these decisions. Immigration, infrastructure, foreign policy seem to be determined solely on the basis of what Trump did and the desire to do the opposite. Abraham Peace Accords - no good. Having migrants wait on the other side of the border or apply from their home country - no good. And on and on.

Biden is a bad joke but what comes next regarding Democrat pretenders to the throne seems even worse.
