At this point, any fair-minded observer of our contemporary politics who does not conclude that our full-on border security and migrant influx crisis is anything other than the most urgent and dire national issue is, to be blunt, delusional. We are experiencing monthly border crossing/apprehension numbers not seen in decades, and our political elite’s failure to properly deter, demagnetize, and ultimately secure our beleaguered southern border ultimately serves the financial interests of the paramilitary transnational criminal organizations that the mainstream press generally still refers to as “Mexican drug cartels.”
Hold aside for a second the absolutely horrific recent revelation that up to 80% of women trafficked from the Central American “Northern Triangle” up through Mexico are abused and raped by the piggish cartel thugs — the broader reality, as Judge Andrew Hanen of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas wrote way back in 2013, is that our liberal asylum regime and mass catch-and-release status quo “successfully complete[s] the mission of the criminal conspiracy” fostered by the cartels, human smugglers, and trafficking rings. Our porous border — and all the accompanying deadly narcotics, infectious diseases, and Special Interest Aliens from the Middle East that flood over that border daily — literally finishes the work of Hezbollah-linked paramilitary rapists lurking south of the Rio Grande.
