<p>Among my research activities is watching the major cable news networks several hours a day – ugh!. ; It may come as a surprise to readers that even as I get a good sampling of all of them, I watch FOX the least and MSNBC the most.</p>



<p>CNN leans left. ; FOX leans right. ; But any objective analysis would show that MSNBC is, without doubt, a propaganda vehicle for Democrats and a radical left-wing agenda – to the detriment of an informed public. ; They are consumed with anti-Trump … anti-Republicans … anti-conservative stories throughout the day. ; And it is not always what they report, but as much what they do NOT report.</p>



<p>Nowhere is their political bias more obvious than in their coverage of the border crisis – or lack thereof.  ; Even as the border crisis has grown to biblical proportions, MSNBC is yet to report on the growing problem. ; I have not found a single segment devoted to the unfolding disaster that is occurring at the border. ; Both CNN and FOX cover it almost daily.</p>



<p>People who rely exclusively on MSNBC for their news are woefully ill informed. ; Not only are they exposed to only one spin on events, but they are also totally ignorant of the many major news events covered by CNN and FOX.</p>



<p>So, what is going on at the border? ; To put it simply, the U.S. border is being overrun by an unprecedented number of illegal crossings. ; One border official said it is no longer a crisis, but a catastrophe. ; The recent surge has exhausted all available resources – the very ability of the border patrol to manage the crisis … ah … catastrophe. ; ;</p>



<p>Border guards are working to the breaking point &#8212; and beyond. ; To say facilities are overcrowded is an understatement. ; The number of gotaways is growing exponentially. ; The amount of drugs crossing the border is constantly increasing – as are criminal activities. ; Border communities are under assault. ; The number of non-Hispanics is growing.</p>



<p>Let us look at the gross numbers. ; In 2019, we had 978,000 border crossers – excluding the gotaways. ; Thanks to President Trump’s tighter border policies, the number dropped to 458,000 in 2020. ; In 2022 almost 1000 migrants died it the border – including women and children.</p>



<p>Enter Biden.</p>



<p>In the face of denial on the left, most observers predicted a surge as soon as Biden took office. ; He and the Democrats had communicated a more welcoming policy – even enticements. ; Enforcement would be limited. ; And the sanctuary city concept would be re-empowered.</p>



<p>What happened under Biden was even worse than his critics anticipated. ; The 2021 number of illegal crossings rose to an astounding 1.7 million – four times the previous year. So far in 2022, the numbers have reached 2.8 million &#8212; and that is just “so far.” ; ;</p>



<p>The current number of those arriving at the border is growing exponentially. ; At times it is running to more than 1000 per hour. ; And according to the experts, the worse is yet to come – when the Trump-era Title 42 Covid policy terminates.</p>



<p>In a recent day, migrants came from more than 20 non-Hispanic nations – just in case you thought all those crossings were impoverished women and children from a few south-of-the-border nations. ; The vast majority of migrants are young single males – a class of people least likely to qualify for asylum and most responsible for crime, drug trafficking, human bondage, and sex trafficking. ; The number of known criminals caught at the border has risen to thousands – and we should understand that the criminal class is more likely to be in the growing number of get-aways.</p>



<p>Not only are the facilities to process and house the masses overloaded, but the surge is also taking a toll on the Patrol who must deal with the dead migrants – especially the corpses of dead children and those abused, living or dead.</p>



<p>In a recent interview with border patrol wives illuminated the problem – how their husbands are changed, depressed. ; As one wife put it, “They cannot get the images out of their minds.” Perhaps that is why a record number of border guards have committed suicide this year.</p>



<p>The tragedy that is happening at the border under Biden and Homeland Security Director Alejandro Mayorkas is unconscionable, inhumane, unconstitutional, and morally reprehensible. ; And the problem is not only at the border. ; It is metastasizing all over the country in crime rates with deadly results from murders, overdoses, and even accidents. ; A significant portion of the rising crime rate is due to the Democrats’ open border policies. ;</p>



<p>And yet, the left-wing media – such as MSNBC &#8212; ignores it all to spare the political reputations of Biden and Mayorkas. ; They do not want the public to know who is responsible for the surge that is occurring at the border and impacting millions of innocent citizens all across the country.</p>



<p>Make no mistake. ; </p>



<p>In this issue, Biden is clearly ignoring his constitutional responsibility to protect and defend America. ; Whether that is a “high crime or misdemeanor” can be debated, but there is no question that Mayorkas must be replaced immediately – and not with a fungible toady. ;</p>



<p>So, there ‘tis.</p>
