The border in Arizona is being overrun by military-age men from all over the world. What is being done to quell this threat?

From Fox News. A remote part of the Arizona border is being overrun by a massive surge of mainly adult male migrants from across the globe, including countries in Africa and the Middle East — just as the state’s Tucson Sector has seen record numbers of crossings in recent days.

Fox News was on the ground in Lukeville, Arizona, where Customs and Border Protection (CBP) have been forced to close the local port of entry due to the surge in illegal entries. Fox footage showed that, as of Tuesday morning, hundreds of single military-age men camped out against the border wall waiting to be processed into the U.S, and not a single woman or child among them.

Of those camped out, there were a large number of Africans from countries Senegal, Guinea, Mauritania, Egypt and elsewhere waiting to be processed and potentially released into the U.S. Others were from the Middle East and Asia. …

The Tucson Sector saw nearly 3,000 encounters in a single day and has seen 17,500 encounters in a single week, the highest weekly total ever recorded.

Meanwhile, Fox cameras caught a moment when migrants exploited gaps in the border wall — which were being repaired by federal contractors — and rushed through the gap and into the United States before it could be fixed.

The situation has sparked outrage from local lawmakers. Rep. Juan Ciscomani, R-Ariz., last week called for the deployment of the Arizona National Guard to the border, urging Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas to recommend such action to the Pentagon. …

The Biden administration has promised to increase the use of the expedited removal authority — and has requested resources to do so as part of its $14 billion supplemental request to Congress for border operations, including staffing and non-custodial housing. Negotiations are ongoing in Congress over that supplemental, with Republicans wanting to see stricter asylum standards and limits on the administration’s use of humanitarian parole. However, some Senate Democrats have said that they would only agree to such policy changes if they were tied to an amnesty for millions of illegal immigrants already in the U.S. …

We need to get back to sanity–vetting those wanting entrance into our country so we can extend compassion for legitimate refugees. No drug dealers, no traffickers, no terrorists. Use the front door. Knock. Apply using the proper forms. Have a legitimate purpose for coming in. Wait for permission. Consider it a privilege not a right. No coming in through the back door or climbing over fences and breaking windows. Understand our (real) history, our Constitution our laws. How hard is that for our elected leaders to understand? Other civilized countries strictly regulate who can come in, for the sake of their own people. Why should we make our country unsafe, unhealthy and disrespected? It’s stupid. The only rule people coming in illegally learn about our laws are–they mean nothing.

Almighty Father and Savior grant wisdom to President Biden to close the border and start sending all of the people crossing the border back to their birth nation.

In Jesus’s name Amen

For the ruthless will come to an end and the scorner will be finished. Indeed all those intent on doing evil will come to an end.
