CNN Propaganda Witch Stunned Into Silence When NY Cop Tells Her That Criminals Emigrate From Florida Because They Know That In Florida (But Not NY) They'll Go to Jail

Some idiot named Erica Hill did not like this answer.

MILLER: These individuals, I went over their rap sheets yesterday, multiple charges, grand larceny, robbery, attempted robbery, grand larceny, grand larceny. This particular crew operated on mopeds and scooters. They were doing organized retail theft, they were doing snatches on the street. iPhones, iPads, clothing, so on and so forth. One of them that they are still seeking has ten charges in one day because he's part of a pattern that's been going on.

And I'm looking at the dates that their arrests started, which is probably close to when they got here. They've only been here a couple of months. So what the detectives are telling me is they have crews here that operate in New York, do all their stealing, then go to Florida to spend the money and come back, and I'm like, "Why don't they just stay and steal in Florida?" They said, "Because there you go to jail."

HILL: Oh...

Michael Lind at Tablet: The border crisis is no accident.

Much of this is not news to you: The Regime is finding less and less favor with American voters, so they've decided to bring in new voters en masse who will support them.

But it's something that this is being published at Tablet.

The unprecedented chaos at the U.S. border and in major American cities that has been caused by the Biden administration's immigration policies finally seems to have moved to the center of national political debate and public awareness.

Over the past three years, the Biden administration has effectively rewritten U.S. immigration law, creating an entirely new stream of quasi-legal immigration under the rubric of "parole." The discretion of the federal government to grant parole or legal residence and work permits to a small number of refugees and other foreign nationals has been used by the Biden administration to rip a hole in America's southern border in order to invite millions of foreign nationals, most of them from Latin America and Central America and the Caribbean, to travel to the U.S. border, from which they are dispersed across the country and supported chiefly by state and local governments and government-funded NGOs.

As of September 2023, an estimated 3.8 million immigrants entered the U.S. under the Biden administration. Of these, 2.3 million have been given Notices to Appear (NTAs) before an immigration court--which could allow them to stay in the U.S. in a "twilight status" for years before a court date.

Of the rest, an estimated 1.5 million are illegal immigrants who sneaked across the border or overstayed their visas and remain, with the government having no idea of their whereabouts, and with Democrat-dominated "sanctuary cities" actively thwarting the ability of federal immigration officials to identify and deport them.

Biden's radical immigration policy represents not only a policy revolution but also a political revolution.

...

The Democratic Party changed its immigration policy when its leaders began to hope that they could import voters to compensate for the loss of voters that Democratic policies were alienating.

What happened to make Democrats change their minds?

...

[T]he Democratic Party is an alliance of interests threatened with long-term demographic decline--declining industries, declining states, declining cities, declining churches and nonprofits. These civic downtrodden have united around the hope that they can reverse the unpopularity of their offerings among U.S.-born Americans by importing new citizens en masse.

A politics founded on this idea--namely, that if not enough American voters like what you are offering, you should compensate by importing supportive voters--may seem like something from Alice in Wonderland. But that's exactly what the leadership of the Democratic Party is doing, by refusing to enforce existing immigration laws and preventing states from securing their borders--while counting on the Democratic bureaucrats and judges to enforce the dubious legality of such moves.

David Seminara, writing at City Journal, presents the optimistic possibility that political reality will force Biden to do something to improve border security.

I'm skeptical.

Immigration was already bound to be a pivotal issue in this year's elections. The standoff between Texas and the federal government, however, emphasizes just how egregious the problem has become--and highlights an especially glaring vulnerability for President Biden in November.

...

The administration claims to be acting on behalf of the Border Patrol in the Texas standoff. The Patrol's union, however, sides with Abbott. "The current border disaster was singlehandedly caused by . . . you guessed it . . . Joe Biden," the Patrol's X account wrote in one post. "There is not a Border Patrol agent out there that thinks it's okay to cut that razor wire. Unfortunately, because of the Supreme Court ruling, it is--it becomes a lawful order." Progressives like most unions, but not this one, and the media have largely ignored its statement.

Can the influx of migrants be considered an invasion? Many of those surging the border don't have malevolent intentions, though that doesn't mean that they should be allowed to break our laws. Do enough of them pose a threat to consider their cumulative efforts an invasion? A group of ten retired FBI executives with more than 250 years of combined experience in the bureau's intelligence, counterterrorism, and criminal operations divisions believe that the answer is yes. They recently penned a letter to congressional leaders describing the migrant crisis as a "new and imminent danger" that "may be the most pernicious [threats] ever to menace the United States."

In modern history, "the U.S. has never suffered an invasion of the homeland and, yet, one is unfolding now," the ex-FBI officials wrote. "Military-aged men from across the globe, many from countries or regions not friendly to the United States are landing in waves on our soil by the thousands--not by splashing ashore from a ship or parachuting from a plane but rather by foot across a border that has been accurately advertised around the world as largely unprotected and with ready access granted." Like the volleys from the Border Patrol union, these officials' warning has been all but ignored by the media, which have obscured Biden's culpability in the border crisis.

As Democrats and Republicans spar over border-security funding and Abbott's war with Biden and blue state governors and mayors continues, how the president chooses to mitigate the border-related damage to his reelection hopes will be telling. He may be in cognitive decline, as his critics insist, but he is still a career politician capable of reading the polls, which show that the public blames him for the crisis. Many independents and a not-insignificant portion of Democrats want a secure border--perhaps explaining why Biden said over the weekend that he will "shut down" the border if Congress sends him border-security legislation that includes funding for Ukraine.
