“…more than half of Americans think the U.S. is being invaded by illegal aliens flooding into the country. And they are right, no matter what President Joe Biden claims, or how diligently the mainstream press tries to cover it up.
“More than half (54%) of Americans think it’s at least somewhat true that we’re experiencing an invasion at the southern border,” according to the NPR/Ipsos poll.
That is a shocking finding, given the denials from the administration that there is a crisis at all, and the fact that the mainstream media will cover anything but the flood of illegal immigrants under Biden.
Of course, NPR tries to put a lefty spin on the results, casting them as the result of right-wing lies.
“These statements, and others like them that were tested in this survey, shed light on how misleading information or politically charged rhetoric about immigration has taken root among a significant portion of the American public,” it says.
To NPR, statements such as “invasion at the border,” and “open border policy,” or claims that “migrants are bringing fentanyl over the southern border” are misleading.
But wait a second. Who exactly has been misleading the American public about what’s happening at the southern border?
From 2012 through 2020, Border Patrol agents apprehended an average of about 40,000 people trying to sneak into the United States border each month. In President Donald Trump’s last year in office, monthly apprehensions started to hit new lows, as his “Remain in Mexico” and other efforts to close loopholes exploited by illegals took effect.
The tide turned immediately after Biden took office. Apprehensions leaped to 101,000 in February and steadily climbed to 213,000 by July.
So far this fiscal year, illegal crossings have averaged 195,000 a month and will top 2 million by the time the fiscal year ends in October — a number never before recorded.
The chart below shows illegal crossings each month under Biden and compares that with the monthly average from 2012-2020. It also provides a sampling of what Biden and Co. were saying about this crisis at the time.
If this isn’t an invasion, what is?…”

“…Meanwhile, the city’s officials also wanted to provide nearly 6,000 luxury hotel rooms to migrants who rode the buses from Texas…”
“There is no cause for panic and alarm. We strongly oppose the harmful and unrealistic net-zero CO2 policy proposed for 2050.”
From masks and distancing to vaccines and therapeutics, federal pronouncements and actions have confidently rebuffed contrary evidence before sometimes — quietly — coming around.
A failing Biden Administration, facing a rematch against Trump and a pro-Trump Republican Congress in January, has launched a politically motivated assault.

The melding of corporate and government power under the auspices of ESG represents an attempt to impose policies on society through corporate power – policies that cannot win at the ballot box.
