President Joe Biden set an ignominious new record for failure in August, as 304,162 migrants arrived in the United States by irregular means. That vast number excludes thousands more whom the administration doesn’t know about because they snuck in undetected.
It is now pretty much guaranteed that 2023 will blow away all annual records for improper, unwanted, and uncontrolled immigration. And worse is to come.The Biden administration divides the flood into different streams — 20,000 from the North, 50,000 paroled to fly in, and 52,000 released into the country despite having no documents — so it can quibble over the word “illegal.” But this is a distraction that blurs an otherwise clear picture of abject federal failure.
Some of the places they’re leaving are merely poorer, others increasingly are failed states where law and order have broken down, and still, others are the “s***holes” our last president undiplomatically said they were. But whatever their variations, they are alike in offering less freedom and opportunity than we do.
The U.S. illegal immigration problem is orders of magnitude worse than that of anywhere else in the world. Germany, which is next in line among developed nations, had 322,000 asylum-seekers in 2022 — hardly more in a full year than America suffers in a month. But we should not ignore other nations’ problems because to do so would fail to understand the global nature and scale of the phenomenon we must deal with.
The immense pressure this puts on governments in wealthy nations has started to tell. The pips have begun to squeak. Officials who once responded airily to mass illegal migration by setting up “sanctuary cities” or by sending other racial virtue signals now emit sounds not of smug superiority but of lament and fear.
