The whole situation is a mess, with hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants finding ways to scam America’s asylum system and gain de facto permanent status in America. If we had an honest national press, they would be doing stories night after night on the flood of human trafficking and cartel narcotics smuggling currently going on. Border Patrol and other federal law enforcement agencies tasked with enforcing immigration are completely overwhelmed. Instead, the Biden administration gets away with pretending this is a processing capacity issue instead of a law enforcement one, and so the flood of illegal immigrants continues. A THIRD OBAMA TERM As we go into the second “hundred days” of Biden’s first term, there’s no reason to believe his approach will change or moderate. It’s widely believed on the Right that senior advisors around Biden are doing most of the heavy lifting on major policy and decision- making. In this formulation, Biden is largely a puppet of the Democrat establishment that has gathered around him... and what the American people are left with is effectively a third term of the Obama administration. If that assessment is correct, we should all get ready for more government, higher taxes, weak economic growth, and endless excuses in the media for why the lofty promises of the increasingly authoritarian, socialist apparatus of the Democrats fail to come to fruition.
about strengthening the IRS, every person who cares for free speech, liberty, and private property should be concerned.
ONE OF THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION’S JOBS? APPARENTLY NOT CREATING ANY It’s tough to separate what jobs have been created in 2021 because of Biden policy versus those that have been added to payrolls in the private sector despite Biden meddling. It’s a certainty that there will be increased economic activity, especially hiring, as the economy reopens this year. The best thing Biden could do is get out of the way. Of course, that’s not the Biden-Democrat plan. He wants to spend trillions of dollars on infrastructure, and a big piece of that will be massive Democrat jobs programs. The fact that the April jobs report had nonfarm payrolls increasing by 266,000 jobs (around 700,000 less than Dow Jones was predicting) while the unemployment rate rose to 6.1% shows that Biden’s big plans aren’t instilling confidence in businesses to invest and hire. IMMIGRATION: BORDERING ON DISASTER This has been a total catastrophe for Biden. The U.S.-Mexico border is the most overrun with illegal crossings it has been in living memory. The Biden administration has set records for the most illegal immigrant children ever held in Border Patrol and Health and Human Services custody.
