How to Stop the Border Crisis | 5-Minute Videos

Todd Bensman has spent the last 20 years dealing with the issue of immigration. He’d pretty much seen it all—that is, until policy changes in 2021 launched an unparalleled crisis on America’s borders.

I’ve been all over Texas, Mexico, and Central America. I’ve pretty much seen it all. But I’ve never seen anything like what I’ve seen since January 2021. No one has. According to US government data, some eight million people have illegally entered the United States from 2021 to 2024. These are the people we know about. But it’s hardly the whole story. Another 2 million must be added to the total. These are the “gotaways,” the ones seen by border agents but never apprehended, and the ones who enter the country through a myriad of other ways. That brings us to a grand total of 10 million illegal crossers in three years — an average of 300,000 every month since Joe Biden was inaugurated president. That is the greatest mass movement across national borders in US history, and maybe the greatest in human history. And they’ll keep coming if we continue our current policies. That’s not a guess. That’s a guarantee. How can I say that? Because I know why they’re coming. They’ve told me. Over and over and over again. It’s not because they fear political persecution in their home country. It’s not because they fear the drug cartels. And it’s not because they fear their abusive husbands. Sure, some fraction of migrants fit those descriptions, but the overwhelming majority are coming for a much more obvious reason: To work and make money in the world’s richest country. Simple as that. It’s an economic calculation. Risk versus reward. If the reward of entering the US is greater than the risk of deportation, migrants will come. And not just from Mexico or Central America, but from almost every country in the world. In the last three years, they’ve come from 150 different nations including China, Iran, Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Somalia, Mauritania, Haiti, Cuba, and Venezuela. They are drawn to the US by what Spanish-speaking migrants call “La Invitación,” an invitation to a banquet of generous government benefits and economic opportunities unavailable to them in their home countries.
