You’d best start believing in vibrancy.
You’re in one.
The number of migrant encounters along the southern border dropped 14% in June from May’s record high, according to data released by the Biden administration Friday — but the US has still recorded more stops along the frontier than in any fiscal year in the 20-year history of the Department of Homeland Security with three months still to go.
In all, 207,416 migrant encounters were recorded in June, according to US Customs and Border Protection, for a total of 1,746,119 stops along the southern border since Oct. 1 — the most the agency has recorded for any fiscal year since 1960. Previously, the highest number of migrants encountered in a fiscal year was 1,734,686 in FY 2021. Before that, the highest was 1,643,679 in FY 2000.
Nationwide, border officials have encountered more than 2 million migrants since Oct. 1, 2021.
Fewer than half of those encountered in June — 92,274 — were expelled under the Trump-era Title 42 order, which has allowed rapid removal of migrants before their asylum claims are heard due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
The number of unaccompanied children stopped at the border rose by 4% last month to 15,271 — with 752 being held on average per day in CBP custody. The number of family units apprehended slipped 13% to 51,780.
Encounters with lone adults made up 68% of June’s total, but dropped 15% from May to 140,197. Only 56% of those adults were processed for expulsion under Title 42.
It should go without saying that most of these invaders don’t touch Border Patrol at all, and that the government has banned using satellite technology to track and estimate the total numbers, so we really have no idea.
I guess the fact that the Border Patrol no longer even tries to stop them at all means that they don’t try as hard to avoid them, so maybe these numbers are more relevant than they used to be.
What gets me is that the average every day middle class working Democrat is OK with this. Why? If you’re a Democrat please explain why, because for the life of me I have no idea.

Why didn’t GW Bush and the Republican party secure Americas borders after 9-11?
