The border crisis continues to escalate as new statistics from CBP reveal that over 11,000 migrants were encountered in just 24 hours. In response, Texas Governor Greg Abbott has taken bold action by chartering a plane with more than 100 illegal migrants to Chicago. Former acting DHS Secretary Chad Wolf is set to discuss whether the Biden administration will take any meaningful action, but before that, let's dive into the situation on the ground.
In a desolate stretch of the Arizona desert near Lukeville, the border is being overrun on a daily basis. Adult men from various parts of the world, predominantly from Africa, are crossing illegally and awaiting processing by Border Patrol. Some of these migrants have revealed their destinations, with many heading to cities like Minnesota, New York City, Chicago, and New Jersey.
