Biden's moral depravity on the Border

 Bonchie:

...

Unfortunately, the bill has come due for Biden’s moral depravity.

“My [county] judges are asking for one thing in particular,” Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-Texas) told Newsmax. “I sit in front of them and I go, ‘If I can do one thing for you, what would that be?’ And this is the ask I’m getting. They go, ‘Tony, we need more body bags.’ And I’m going, ‘Body bags? Why do you need body bags?’ They go, ‘Migrants are dying at record numbers, and we don’t have body bags to handle the situation.’

You don’t have to take the word of a Republican Congressman either. In just a few Texas counties, 128 migrants have died so far this year attempting to cross the border.

Webb County (Texas) Medical Examiner Dr. Corinne Stern, who tracks illegal immigrant deaths in 12 South Texas counties, told CNN Wednesday that 128 migrants had died so far in those counties this year, more than triple the number that had died at the same point last year (45).

128 doesn’t sound like a lot until you realize that for every person who makes it across the border and dies within the final few miles of the trip, countless others are dying over the other 1000+ miles they are traveling. These people are trekking through an inhospitable desert, led by coyotes working at the behest of the drug cartels.

Further, even if migrants are lucky enough to make it across the U.S. border, the chances are high that they’ve been raped and/or abused along the way. Men, women, and children are being used as drug mules, and in some cases, murdered. In short, while exposure, including dehydration and starvation, is taking lots of lives, that’s hardly the only threat faced. And on the topic of exposure, deaths as a result of that will skyrocket as the summer heat sets in.

All of this was preventable. The “remain in Mexico” policy and other safe-third-country agreements the Trump administration negotiated had stemmed the flow. We’ve seen an explosion since Joe Biden took office, and it’s solely his fault. That’s become so obvious that even the President of Guatemala is placing blame where it belongs.

Do you know what you call causing a tragedy that was otherwise completely preventable by elected officials? You call it immoral. Joe Biden may be absolved of the great sin of mean tweets, but the immorality of his presidency far surpasses anything the left ever accused Donald Trump of. If our politics weren’t so wrapped up in the largely meaningless, that would be a majority opinion in Washington at this point. Compassion isn’t just defined by the words you say on cable news. It’s defined by the results of your actions, and the results Joe Biden’s actions have been morally repugnant.

Much of this criticism is coming from Democrats in the affected area who are having to deal with the fallout from Biden's botched immigration policy.   The reason that Biden and Kamala Harris are avoiding the area is they do not want to call media attention to the rolling disaster.

Citizens along the border are having to deal with criminal trespass and destruction on their property.  They should file a class action suit against the Biden administration.
