Apparently not in elite democratic area like Martha Vineyard or in kamala Harris front yard. Nor in democratic cities like Chicago or New York. Liberal want illegal alien to stay in El Paco and other border cities where they are out of sight to their liberal eyes.
Those elite NIMBY's will never allow them to live in their neighborhoods.
See what a couple of planes/buses did to them ?
Imagine what 200K PER MONTH for almost 2 years would do to them ?
Clearly one, two, or three million isn’t making a dent in the World’s poorest populations. More and more won’t fix the World’s poverty. The war on poverty is lost.
There are no open borders you say? LOL
Can you explain then why even the democrat New York mayor is now crying a river because his city is getting flooded with the riff raff that's crossing into Texas daily?
Are they magically appearing out of thin air or something?
If there was an open border, illegals could just walk in with no consequences.
Instead, CBP has been making around 200,000 apprehensions on the southwest border per month.
In fiscal year 2021, 63%, or just over 1 million, of Border Patrol apprehensions resulted in migrants being expelled under Title 42, government data show. Nearly 50% of the 1.8 million Border Patrol arrests in the first 10 months of fiscal year 2022 turned into rapid expulsions to Mexico or migrants' home country.
Biden administration has not been expelling unaccompanied children, most of whom are instead housed in government shelters until they turn 18 or are placed with a sponsor in the U.S.
Other migrants are not expelled because of humanitarian reasons, such as an acute medical condition. And many border-crossers are not expelled because Mexico generally only accepts the return of its citizens and Central American migrants. The U.S. also cannot expel migrants to Cuba, Nicaragua and Venezuela because of frosty diplomatic relations with the authoritarian governments in those countries.
So "open" border is clearly false. "Porous" border may be accurate because a lot sneak through and not all are deported.
The OP does actually have a very good question that is always ignored. How many immigrants is the right amount? How is that determined? Conservatives always say there are too many, but how do you know? How do you determine how many we should allow in? How do we know if we should double the amount let in or half it?
1- there are no "open borders"
2 - there are no "open border" proponents you will find on here
3 - there are no "woke Democrats" you will find on here
These are just little taglines your ilk has made up to make yourselves feel better.
When they can neither refute nor reply honestly, what do Democrat fanatics do instead?
Deny, deny, deny.
