Biden’s Border Plan Is Better Than the Status Quo

In the words of erstwhile Saturday Night Live travel correspondent Stefon, the world’s hottest new club is the UNITED STATES. This place has everything: Waffle House ninjas, suitcase-stealing Biden administration officials, dogs that ride buses like humans, and Matt Gaetz.

In recent years, the nonstop party we offer has attracted a record number of potential patrons to Club America. Last year, the U.S. Border Patrol reported 2.2 million encounters, up from 1.7 million the year before. In three of the previous four years under President Donald Trump, the Border Patrol reported fewer than 406,000 encounters (with a spike in 2019 up to 809,000).
