The illegal-alien blitz of the U.S. border continued in December, although in addition to running for the U.S. frontier with Mexico, two squadrons of the invaders attempted amphibious landings in California.
Authorities caught more than 40 illegals packed into two boats on consecutive days, while agents at the border in the Tucson, Arizona, sector uncovered a houseful of illegals. They also stopped three packed into the trunk of a car, U.S. Customs and Border Protection reported.
As for overall border numbers, a snapshot of the Del Rio border sector in Texas shows what’s ahead with a President Biden. Apprehensions of illegals, CPB reported, were 182-percent higher in November this year than last.
Fishing Boats
The first big haul of illegals occurred December 15, when border agents, assisted by the U.S. Coast Guard and other agencies, netted 23 illegals who landed in a Mexican fishing boat, CBP reported.
Twenty-three Mexicans, 21 men and two women — two of whom were juveniles — put ashore at about 4 p.m. a few miles from downtown Long Beach.
CBP called the seaborne expedition an “anomalous attempt at successful human smuggling.”
Agents from CBP and associated authorities nabbed the bunch almost immediately.
Next day, at 11:30 p.m. a task force intercepted a boat about 12 miles off the coast of Dana Point. The boat carried 20 Mexicans, including a pregnant woman and three juveniles, CBP reported.
The woman is seven months pregnant, which means she made for the United States knowing that her child, if born here, will be an anchor baby. That means U.S. citizenship, and a free pass to stay here for the mother. Border agents rushed her to the hospital when she claimed she was in labor.
Either the hospital or U.S. taxpayers will foot the medical bills.
CBP reported that sea-going apprehensions in the San Diego border sector increased 93 percent during fiscal 2020, and “there are no signs of it slowing down.”
Stash House, Arizona, Del Rio Border Madness
Also last week, border agents in the Tucson sector, along with local cops, shut down an illegal-alien stash house in border-town Douglas.
Inside were 16 illegals — 14 Mexicans, a Peruvian, and a Guatemalan. None wore masks, CBP reported. They were unconcerned, apparently, about catching or spreading the Chinese Virus.
Near Sells, Arizona, CBP reported, agents arrested three Guatemalans packed like Starkist Tuna into the trunk of a rental car. The driver faced human smuggling charges.
The number of apprehensions, as The New American reported early this month, suggest that illegals are well aware that “President-elect” Biden will push for an amnesty. Biden wants to permit every illegal who can make it across the border to stay in the United States forever.
In the Del Rio, Texas, border sector alone, apprehensions jumped 182 percent in November 2020 compared to last year. The Del Rio Sector covers 245 miles along the Rio Grande.
Agents caught 8,472 illegals this year; 3,008 last year. “Among those arrested,” CBP reported, “were 7,951 single adults in comparison to the arrests of only 1,793 single adults in November 2019, marking a 343 percent increase.”
This fiscal year, which began October 1, CBP has already collared or detained 140,591 illegals, the agency reported in its latest data release.
That 60.1-percent increase over last year’s two-month 87,782 represents a rate of 2,305 illegals crossing per day. If that figure remains stable, by the year’s end agents will have caught 850,000 illegals.
That’s just less than the population of Indianapolis, Indiana.
Illegals, of course, count on Biden’s taking office and sending legislation to a possibly Democrat-controlled Congress. Biden wants to put the 11 million illegals who came here uninvited on a “path to citizenship.” He really needn’t do so, however, because he wouldn’t deport them anyway.
Biden also promises to bring in more “refugees” and settle them in towns where they don’t belong.
Not doing so, he claims, would be “un-American.”
