Border Crisis Is Now Facing System-Wide Failure

We are facing more than a crisis at the border. It is now a system-wide failure. You would never know it from the media reporting. And Democrats will not do a thing to secure the border. If Congress simply closed the loopholes in the amnesty law, it would stop this. They won’t do it.

“The situation at our Southern Border has gone from a crisis to a national emergency, to a near system-wide meltdown,” Nielsen said at Auburn University’s Center for Cyber & Homeland Security.

While this is going on, Elizabeth Warren is condemning the wall.

EXCERPT FROM NIELSON TRANSCRIPT VIA BREITBART

“The situation at our Southern Border has gone from a crisis to a national emergency, to a near system-wide meltdown,” Nielsen said at Auburn University’s Center for Cyber & Homeland Security. Her prepared speech said:

There is no more fundamental responsibility for a nation.  And yet, the American people have been let down by our government again…and again. I want to cut through the politics to tell you loud and clear:  there is NO  “manufactured” crisis at our Southern Border.  There is a real-life humanitarian and security catastrophe. Late last year, we were apprehending 50,000 – 60,000 migrants a month. Last month, we apprehended more than 75,000—the highest in over a decade. And today I can tell you that we are on track to interdict nearly 100,000 migrants this month …

I say this with the utmost sincerity and urgency:  the system is breaking.  And our communities, our law enforcement personnel, and the migrants themselves are paying the price.

Because of outdated laws, misguided court decisions, and a massive backlog of cases, we are usually forced to release these groups into the United States.  And we have virtually no hope of removing them in the future, despite the fact that the vast majority who apply for asylum do not qualify for it…

Our laws aren’t keeping up with the migrant flows, and until they are fixed, the situation will only get worse and more heartbreaking. We need Congress to stop playing politics and do what’s right.

We need Congress to change the law to allow us to keep families together throughout the immigration process … to ensure the safe and prompt return of unaccompanied children to their home countries … and to reverse the court ruling that directs dangerous criminals to be released into our communities.

This a complex and emotional issue.  But no matter what side of the aisle you are on, we have a common cause:  to uphold our sovereign responsibility to secure our borders; to facilitate legal trade and travel; to prevent drugs from poisoning our communities, and to help vulnerable populations – all at the same time.

If the government is unwilling or unable to protect the citizens of the United States, it is time for all of us to protect ourselves. Our state governments should all set up appropriate militias to deal with the border crisis.

The coup is well underway, as congress, courts, media, establishment, international smuggling operations, … defy and destroy the president, while the president is unwilling to take serious risks and assert his power.

The politicians on the ‘left’…you know who they ARE…and their rino buddies do not give a damn about the Republic which apparently they are avowed to DESTROY!!! There is a hardcore brainwashed to the point of brain dead adherents that believe the carrion swill propaganda disseminated by the sold out corrupt mainstream media to be “gospel”…when, where and how the saga will play out will be interesting…as the main “cancer” appears to be working its’ way amidst sound tissue unhindered…via “stealth”…

There is definitely an invasion at our porous borders that will bring nothing but chaos to our nation.
