BRETT: So we have twin crises now emerging in front of us. We\u2019ve got a crisis of our Second Amendment being laid siege to by the current administration, the Biden-Harris administration, and against that backdrop we continue to see the siege taking place at the border with Mexico. You know, it\u2019s incredible to think about America\u2019s borders between Canada and Mexico. Two of the 12 longest borders in the world are right here in the United States.<\/p>\n

The Canada-U.S. is the longest border in the world, and the border with Mexico and the United States is something like number 11 or 12 on that list. And that border needs to be secured. That border needs to be guarded. And the very opposite thing has happened as a result of Joe Biden\u2019s executive orders signed in January. We watched in February as a hundred thousand migrants were confronted at the border.<\/p>\n

\"\"Many, many more got in regardless, but this past month — so the month we\u2019re talking about would be March — border officials encountered 172,000 migrants at the border in March, a 71% increase from February. It\u2019s the latest indicator of the extent of the crisis at the southern border. But one that the Biden administration trying to pin on the Trump administration. Now, for 172,000 migrants be encountered, the majority were single adults. It included 18,890 unaccompanied children.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s a 100% increase on the already high numbers encountered in February and the highest number recorded ever. In February, a hundred thousand migrants overall were encountered. CBP, Customs and Border Patrol, has experienced an increase in these encounters and arrests. Encounters have continued to increase since April of 2020, and the experience is that this will continue. The Biden administration is failing in trying to handle this mess at the border.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a fact. It\u2019s a fact — and it\u2019s not surprising. It\u2019s predictable. Why? Because they opened the border, and they encouraged people to come in. When you look at the numbers in terms of population, it\u2019s shocking: 172,000 people. Just to give you a perspective on that very quickly, 172,000 people, you\u2019re talking about a city the size of Salem, Oregon.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a city the size of Oceanside, California, Rancho Cucamonga, California, these are large populations of people being encountered at the border, and we don\u2019t know the number underneath that. Well, Rush has long been an advocate for legal immigration, celebrated legal immigration. Here\u2019s a call he took from a legal immigrant from El Salvador who called into the program.<\/a><\/p>\n

RUSH: Here is Sandra in Miami. You\u2019re next. It\u2019s great to have you with us. Hi.<\/p>\n

CALLER: It is an honor. I am a legal Hispanic from El Salvador, Central America, where the MS-13 gangs are coming; invading — because that\u2019s the word we have to use, invading — the USA because illegal immigration is an invasion. There\u2019s nothing wrong with that. And my husband escaped communist Cuba. People have to understand one thing.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>People don\u2019t know who are supporting socialism, how bad it is. They think it\u2019s what the Democrats are saying, is wrong. I lived through a war in El Salvador escaped. My husband escaped communist Cuba. We know what it is. How can people, people died to come to the United States.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, now, this is another interesting point. People who have come here legally from socialist enclaves around the world, either the Eastern Bloc in Asia or from Cuba, Venezuela. They all know what socialism is. They want no part of it. They\u2019ve escaped it. The United States is a panacea. It is a God-blessed salvation to them. But we would make a mistake in assuming that the illegal immigrants that are being brought here as part of a political operation feel the same way.<\/p>\n

Maybe some of them do. I think the take-away here is that of course people who have fled socialism and communism to come to the United States understand exactly what\u2019s what, and they want no part of the Democrat Party. But they haven\u2019t wanted part of the Democrat Party in a long time. Let me ask: Sandra, when\u2019s the last time you voted Democrat?<\/p>\n
