supply and demand.
Biden just dumped 20,000 Haitian's into a town with about the same population. Where are they going to house all those people? In barns, warehouses.

* There is no such thing as an " Open border." It's people seeking asylum,and if they are vetted & found to have no legitimate cause to be in this country, they sent back.

* What would be the purpose of having border officers IF we have an open border? Folks used to trickle into the US for decades , but once this wall building started, they started coming in caravans. It's another of his disasters.

*By the way: The author is from the heritage foundation, the same outfit that has put the project 2025 thingie together, and after people are reading it's 900 page ideas, they are alarmed- now 45 is saying he doesn't know about it: Yeah,  we believe you.

It's people taking advantage of a country with lax immigration enforcement and the opportunity to be subsidized financially by the Gov't.
Prior immigrants before this immigration fiasco had to go through red tape and also prove themselves to be self  sufficient or sponsored before entering.

* Lets stop with the idea that " no one crept " into the country during 45's tenure. There are places where folks can crawl through. The so called wall does NOT run from California to Florida. Just start thinking for once  dammit.
