“In FY 2020, there were 136,808 gotaways at the border. That number then rose to 387,398 in FY 2021 … with numbers then skyrocketing to 606,131 in FY 2022 and 670,674 in FY 23.”

Correct me if I’ve got this wrong: For 212(f) to actually shut down border & block asylum claims of those who enter, you need EITHER 3d country transit asylum bar OR overruling of 9th Circuit opinion (saying Trump’s 212(f) order couldn’t block asylum)?

But of course even if it is, there’s always a pause of a few months in the migrant surge before the migrants & cartels figure out its a 4-card flush. If Biden times it right this pause might last through the election.… https://t.co/jzZjzAWcRr https://t.co/NjfpArpWGa
