What Was the Purpose of Opening Our Southern Border?

 Victor Davis Hanson discusses the drastic changes at the U. S. southern border during the Trump administration, leading to a significant reduction in illegal entries. He questions the motivations behind previous open border policies and their long-term implications.

1. Record Reduction in Illegal Entries: The Trump administration achieved a 96% reduction in illegal border crossings within eight weeks without comprehensive immigration reform. This raises questions regarding the previous open-border policy.

2. Impact of Immigration on Population: Currently, the U. S. has between 50 to 60 million residents who were not born in the country. This includes a high percentage of foreign-born residents in California, leading to challenges in integration and assimilation.

3. Possible Motives Behind Open Borders:

• Government Dependency: There's speculation that an influx of unskilled immigrants could create a dependent population benefiting from federal assistance, bolstering government growth and requiring higher taxes from the wealthy.

• Globalist Ideology: Some may view borders as outdated and believe in a universal chance for opportunity across the globe, leading to a push for open borders.

• Political Strategy: Concerns are raised about whether bringing in large numbers of immigrants could eventually influence voting patterns in favor of certain political agendas.

• Chaos and Nihilism: There is the belief that flooding the U. S. with newcomers may stem from a desire to disrupt the status quo established during the Trump era.

4. Uncertain Future: Hanson concludes that the motivations behind these policies are unclear, especially given the COVID-19 pandemic and the unprecedented encouragement of immigration.

Victor Davis Hanson highlights the complexities surrounding U. S. immigration policy, posing questions about the motives and consequences of past decisions while acknowledging the lack of clear answers.

In his new book, "On Call," Fauci admits that Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, called him the night after Biden was declared the winner of the election, to inform him of Pfizer's "Game-changing results" from the rigged mRNA trial. "On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...
