Daily Broadside | Trump Was Right, Of Course: Mexico (and Other Countries) Aren’t Sending Us Their Best

I received my copy of Overrun: How Joe Biden Unleashed the Greatest Border Crisis in U.S. History by Todd Bensman today. From the back cover: “Americans never voted for their [the radical ideologues] experiment or the irrevocable consequences that immediately waylaid a surprised nation.” I’m anxious to read it along with a couple of other books on the third-world invasion being perpetrated by the anti-Americans in this administration, facilitated by the supine do-nothing GOP.

With that as background, remember how Trump was villified over comments he made about illegal aliens back in June 2015?

The US has become a dumping ground for everybody else’s problems. Thank you. It’s true, and these are the best and the finest. When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.

The Left lost their minds with their hair on fire. Trump called Mexicans rapists! Trump demeaned Mexicans! Trump is a RAAACIST! Never mind the fact that our borders were and are being violated by Mexicans and other third-world “immigrants.” Ignore the fact that up to 80% of women in these “caravans” and on the immigrant journey were being raped. The talking heads hyperventilated over Trump telling the truth.

And the truth continues to this day to validate what Trump said back then, but even more so. These countries, including Mexico, aren’t sending us their best.

A manhunt remains underway as police search for Danelo Cavalcante, a 34-year-old illegal alien from Brazil, after he escaped from Chester County Prison on August 31. A $10,000 reward is now being offered to the person who leads police to Cavalcante.

Cavalcante was spotted on surveillance footage on September 2 just 1.5 miles away from the prison and police believe he remains in the area but could now be elsewhere.

“Law enforcement is requesting that residents in the area remain indoors at this time. Lock your vehicles. Review your surveillance cameras and contact police if you observe anything suspicious,” Chester County District Attorney Deb Ryan said in a statement:

Danelo Cavalcante is considered an extremely dangerous man. Please remain vigilant in assisting with this search. If you see this individual do not approach him. Call 911 immediately. [Emphasis added]

What, they don’t have enough prisons in Brazil for this guy? They have to send their guy here to live on the taxpayer’s dime for three squares a day? And he doesn’t even like it?

The ingrate.

But he’s not the only one you need to be watching out for.

A man who entered New York City just two months ago after living in Venezuela has become a poster boy for the migrant crisis after he was arrested six separate times, often for violent attacks. He arrived in the city just about two months ago, first coming in on June 27.

The 29-year-old Daniel Hernandez Martinez reportedly committed his first crime during his second day in New York City, when he was said to have stolen merchandise from a Brooklyn Costco. He then hit up a Duane Reade in Manhattan’s Columbus Circle. 

Just a day later, he allegedly assaulted a security guard at a different Duane Reade location. 

“He’s been wreaking havoc,” stated a cop with over 20 years of experience.

“This is not an isolated incident. These migrants are getting arrested quite often here, and we really don’t know who they are. They really don’t have ID. They’re not being vetted properly, but some of them are committing some of the most violent crimes here.”

Isn’t diversity awesome?!

But it’s not just oneseys-twoseys; the open border is driving the increase in retail theft.

Why the sudden explosion in organized retail crime? When it covers this issue at all, the mainstream press usually just throws up its hands, or says retailers are exaggerating the problem.

But could it have anything to do with the fact that Biden opened the border and let millions of illegal immigrants flood into the country?

Immigration and Customs Enforcement  (ICE) sees a connection. In a statement released last June, it said: “Recent investigations have also identified organized retail crime schemes exploiting undocumented migrants forced to steal goods to pay back ‘coyotes’ who smuggle them across international borders.”

In another report, ICE says that:

Boosters are often undocumented immigrants, labor trafficked into the United States and working off a debt, or individuals suffering from some form of addiction. The boosters are the thieves on the ground that steal (boost) the products. They typically have a list of merchandise to steal from their crew boss and may hit numerous stores in one day. The boosters will likely be paid in cash or through anonymous/encrypted peer-to-peer payment apps.

By June of last year, the problem had grown so severe that ICE announced an effort to crack down on this migrant-fueled crime wave.

Of course, this results in higher prices for your average American shopper.

The person responsible for the mayhem and population displacement that we’re undergoing is Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, under whom is U.S. Customs and Border Protection. He is intentionally failing at protecting our border. No one is this incompetent at this level of “responsibility.”

He ought to be impeached and removed from office. But will the RINOs allow that to happen? Nope. They didn’t.

Hey, all of you who “voted” for Joe Biden — and for those who helped the Democrats take the Senate and keep the House — thanks so much for enriching our lived experience.
