In an unexpected turn of events, President Biden has embarked on a week-long Caribbean vacation in St. Croix, despite mounting challenges both at home and abroad. Less than 24 hours after returning from a Christmas getaway to Camp David, the President's decision to take a break has raised eyebrows, given the surge of migrants at the southern border and ongoing attacks by Iranian proxies in the Middle East.
Meanwhile, tensions continue to flare at the southern border, where border patrol agents have reported over 730,000 migrant encounters since October 1st. To put this into perspective, that's a population larger than Denver arriving at the border in less than three months. December may even break records as the highest month for migrant encounters in history.
