Biden admin to step up deportation of Haitians to address migrant surge, documents say nbcnews.com/politics/immig…
"Most of the Haitians arriving are not coming directly from the island nation, said two DHS officials, but have been living in South America for several years...
"...they cannot be deported back to South American countries so they will instead be sent to Haiti, though most would be landing in a country they have not lived in for years that has been devastated by political crisis and natural disasters."
That kind of message sounds like a deterrent.
Meanwhile, Ted Cruz is going on TV saying "if you’re from Haiti, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have said we have open borders, come to Del Rio and they will let you in.”

Pre-insurrection speaker John Eastman goes full Calhoun, calling for restrictions on internal movement between states and the formation of mobs for "high intensity" demonstrations in cities. amgreatness.com/2021/08/10/how…
Eastman goes on to propose that states make payments in cryptocurrencies to subvert the US dollar.
Here's a call for nullification, to be invoked "if under color of the law the feds egregiously subvert individual civil rights," which Eastman admits would "produce the highest level of direct state-federal confrontation."

Last November, lawyers representing the Trump campaign asked the Justice Department to investigate "improperly cast mail ballots" as a "serious federal felony."
They’re really showing us who they are, aren’t they? You’d think the anti-anti- crowd would be angriest of all about how their brand is being tarnished by authoritarianism, fascism, ethnonationalism, etc…
“They find it tolerable” is probably the best you can say about them.
They find it tolerable that declared fascists have major platforms in conservative media.
These pundits live in a self-imposed fantasy land. “Our chosen ones would never pander to the antivax sentiment that’s become endemic on the right, and shame on you for daring to make such an implication.”
The funny thing is that these same people would say “Trump isn’t a cause, he’s a symptom.” And they had a point. Trump was a symptom of a conservative movement that lost its way, and a feckless political class that fell in line behind him.
Yet their favored candidates, no they can’t be symptoms of the movement that produced Trump. They’re causes! No one tells them what to do!

Former Secretary of Transportation Elaine Chao could also explain why she resigned immediately following the Capitol insurrection.
