BORDER CZAR TO THE RESCUE
Episode description
WaPo is reporting that there are more migrant deaths at southern border than U.S. and Mexico have reported. Why is the U.S. and Mexican government lying about something like that? The data shows that at least 1,107 people drowned trying to cross the Rio Grande River in the seven years from 2017 to 2023. The deaths peaked in 2022 as the number of people trying to enter the United States soared. A rising number of women were among the dead. In 2023, more than 1 in 10 drownings involved a child. Our U.S. government and businesses are to thank for this influx. U.S. Businesses and companies have abused cheap, illegal labor for far too long, and it's got to end. There are no more excuses — hire legal workers or pay the price.
