So who’s up for some commie Chinese persons flooding across our border in record numbers? Yeah, me, either, but here we are in Biden’s brave new world in which importing actual enemies of our nation is totes cool. After all, to the FJB administration, the true threats to national security are American parents and grandmas. Go figure.
The New York Times reports (archive link):
More than 24,000 Chinese citizens have been apprehended crossing into the United States from Mexico in the past year. That is more than in the preceding 10 years combined.The surge of migrants entering the United States across the southern border increasingly includes people from a surprising place: China.Despite the distances involved and the difficulties of the journey, more than 24,000 Chinese citizens have been apprehended crossing into the United States from Mexico in the past year. That is more than in the preceding 10 years combined, according to government data.They typically fly into Ecuador, where they do not need a visa. Then, like hundreds of thousands of other migrants from Central and South America and more distant locations, they pay smugglers to guide their travel through the dangerous jungle between Colombia and Panama en route to the United States. Once there, they turn themselves in to border officials and many seek asylum.And most succeed, in turn fueling further attempts. Chinese citizens are more successful than people from other countries with their asylum claims in immigration court. And those who are not end up staying anyway because China usually will not take them back.
Won’t take them back? How did they get out in the first place?
One expert warned this dramatic upswing was a potential national security risk, telling Newsweek: “It kind of goes to the question of: are any of these here on China’s orders?”. . . . Undocumented migration from China has been steadily rising from around 18,400 in 2020. However, this year’s figures show encounters increased significantly from March to April and remained high throughout May and June, before rising again in July—with 6,158 encounters nationwide in a single month.”We know that China is using everything that they have, every bit of espionage, to spy on our military and our high technology,” said Rebecca Grant, Ph.D., a national security analyst at IRIS Independent Research. “And we know China’s government is not our friend, so this dramatic upswing, I think it could definitely present a potential national security risk.”. . . . “Where are these Chinese nationals going? And what is Homeland Security or whoever else doing to keep track and to answer this? Are they all economic migrants, or are there other reasons?” she asked.Newsweek approached the Department of Homeland Security and the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs via email for comment on Tuesday.In 2022, there were just over 55,000 individuals from China who entered the U.S. on work visas—a number that has been rising steadily from around 34,500 in 2017, according to the Department of Homeland Security.Between 2015 and 2019, 4.8 percent of the 3.7 million naturalized U.S. citizens—or around 178,000—originated from China, the agency said.The southern land border has been a hot political topic because of its apparent porousness; CBP figures show that after a lull during the pandemic, total crossings rose to nearly 2.4 million in 2022—and have tipped over 2.2 million so far in 2023.
So there was an alarming uptick of Chinese nationals entering our country during the Trump administration, but it’s truly exploded under Biden.
In October, 2023, ABC News reported:
The pandemic and China’s COVID-19 policies, which included tight border controls, temporarily stemmed the exodus that rose dramatically in 2018 when President Xi Jinping amended the constitution to scrap the presidential term limit. Now emigration has resumed, with China’s economy struggling to rebound and youth unemployment high. The United Nations has projected China will lose 310,000 people through emigration this year, compared with 120,000 in 2012.. . . . The popular route to the U.S. is through Ecuador, which has no visa requirements for Chinese nationals. Migrants from China join Latin Americans there to trek north through the once-impenetrable Darién and across several Central American countries before reaching the U.S. border. The journey is well-known enough it has its own name in Chinese: walk the line, or “zouxian.”
China has a very tight control over its population. What are the odds that all of these people are legit amnesty seekers (and on what grounds)?
This trend is nearly as disturbing as the influx of Middle Eastern and other terrorists (actual terrorists, not the Biden DHS/DOJ definition that focuses on normal Americans, parents, Trump voters, et al.).
And we can expect the same level of scrutiny applied to actual threats from CCP nationals flooding our border that’s been applied to the J6 political prisoners and to parents objecting to their children being taught to hate and that they are the “wrong” gender. Just kidding. These infiltrators are being welcomed with open arms, while actual Americans are being routinely demonized by the president of these United States.
Obviously, the question is: Why is the federal government laser-focused on Americans as supposed national security threats while people who hate America—are possible (likely?) foreign and/or terrorist agents—are welcomed with open arms in their vast numbers into our great country?
