BORDER THREAD: Cubans arrive by bus to Acuna, Mexico, then grab a taxi to near the Rio Grande, which is the U.S.-Mexico border.
Taxi drops the four Cubans off and they walk to a track that goes to the shore of the Rio Grande. They're charged 50 pesos for the taxi -- about double the regular price.

BORDER: Watched at least 15 rafts loaded with illegal immigrants cross the Rio Grande during several hours in Roma, Texas, last night.
They heard to come to the U.S. and bring kids. #BorderCrisis
Another raft load: Most who crossed were from Honduras, but also a few from Guatemala, and a couple from Ecuador.
They said they came now because of Biden. #BorderCrisis

“There’s no downside on securing our border. There’s no downside on less illegal immigration. There’s no downside on less illegal drugs.”
—Former @ICEgov Director Tom Homan speaks at an 'Angels and Badges' event outside Congress. @AngelFamilies@ICEgov@AngelFamilies “Sarah was considered brain dead once she arrived at the hospital and we’ve been fighting ever since.”

🔴 PREMIERE TONIGHT: Michelle Malkin joins me on American Thought Leaders 🇺🇸
A sovereign country and unlimited immigration cannot coexist, says @michellemalkin who follows the money behind the push for open borders.
“Abolish ICE, Antifa, & sanctuary anarchists—they believe there is no legitimate power that the govt should have to enforce our immigration laws on the interior. They don't believe in borders.”
“This is ground zero in the battle against illegal alien sanctuary," says @michellemalkin at a rally against Montgomery County’s #sanctuary policies that have contributed to 8 rapes by illegal aliens in recent weeks.
@michellemalkin “Follow the money. Find the truth. … The fact is, we have to hold government officials accountable at every level,” says @michellemalkin in Montgomery County, Maryland, where local #sanctuary policies have contributed to 8 rapes by illegal aliens in recent weeks.

Just watched 2 groups of Africans from Congo and Angola cross illegally into Mexico from Guatemala across the Suchiate River on tube rafts. 8 men, 4 woman, 6 kids.
One guy from Angola said he took a boat to Colombia (10 days), walked through jungle for 10 days, and has spent 2 months getting this far (to Mexico).
Angolan woman said she flew to Panama first. She has a 2yo with her.

VIDEO THREAD: Behind the Push for Open Borders
1/5—"This is an orchestrated, communist assault on America to destroy America's borders, to create confusion in America, to overwhelm the system politically." @newzealblog
2/5—How would border security look under a Democrat president in 2020?
"You would see the end of America as we know it because we would get so many million people coming over. They would be given citizenship & voting rights & they would vote for the party that let them in."

"Most of these family members we’re allowing in, we can’t properly vet. We’re letting in tens of thousands a day and we have no idea who they really are.
Only 15% of those coming in have valid asylum claims."
— Mark Morgan, Obama’s Border Patrol chief #BorderSecurity
"Under current estimates, we’re going to let in 650k illegal immigrants that will stay indefinitely."
