Throughout Joe Biden’s 2020 basement campaign, he pledged a 100-day moratorium on deportations of illegal aliens if he became president. “We could afford to take in a heartbeat another two million,” he said at one event in August 2019. Now, four years later, that two million has multiplied, multiple times.
Arguably the worst part of all, the Biden-Harris border crisis was intentional. As a newly-released report from the House Homeland Security Committee aptly called it, a “crisis by design” — which is the title of the damning report.
The committee’s Chairman, Dr. Mark Green (R-TN), explained the gravity of the intentional crisis.
Even if not one more inadmissible alien crossed our borders for the remainder of Biden and Harris’ term, the millions they have already allowed into our country have done damage that will take decades to remedy.
Here’s more (emphasis, mine):
According to the report, since February 2021, there have been 8.2 million crossings at the southwest border. Other borders and ports of entry raise the total crossings to 10.1 million. By the end of the Biden administration, the report estimates an estimated 11.6 million encounters nationwide.
This is a 274% increase from the 3.1 million encounters from 2017-20. The numbers do not include the 2 million encounters known as “gotaways.”
The report gets worse.
Simultaneously, transnational criminal organizations like the Mexican criminal cartels and violent gangs have been enriched and empowered by record profits from drug trafficking and human smuggling. They funnel those blood-bought dollars into their ever-expanding operations in American cities and throughout the hemisphere.
And worse…
Illegal aliens are committing crimes in American communities large and small, and their shocking acts of violence and recklessness have been documented in every state.
Former Border Patrol Chief Rodney Scott said in testimony before the committee that “the [Biden-Harris] administration’s laser focus on expediting processing and increasing opportunities for migrants to enter the U.S. never wavered.”
My staff and I engaged and advised the Biden transition teams well before inauguration. … Advice from career professionals was ignored. Policies were implemented that resulted in thousands of aliens being released into the U.S. Illegal immigration intensified, overwhelmed the Border Patrol, and effectively transferred control of our southwest border directly to the Mexican drug cartels.
Why? Why has the Biden-Harris administration subordinated the safety of American citizens to the importation of as many illegal aliens as they can get away with? For the same reason Democrats do — or don’t do — anything: the ballot box.
And even after the warnings of career professionals, as the report said, “the resulting crisis in early 2021 was predictable, swift and catastrophic.”

Tragically, as evidenced by their inaction, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have continued to clearly show the American people that the importation of illegal aliens trumps all.
