With Title 42 Expulsions Ending Soon, Large Groups of Illegals Are Crashing the Border

The world’s “migrants” await May 23, the day that Title 42 public-health expulsions will end if the Biden administration gets its way. That anticipated change is one reason that Border Patrol agents are dealing with large numbers of large groups.

Last week, agents apprehended 685 illegals in four groups, another 265 in 12 hours, and 257 in large groups the week before that.

And, of course, previously deported sex offenders join those groups to cover their entry into the country.

They all hope that lifting the application of Title 42, the law that permits the immediate deportation of illegals for health reasons — in this case, the China Virus — means authorities will simply let them disperse to settle in irremovable colonies.

685 in Four Groups

In the four groups that netted 685 illegals, U.S. Customs and Border Protection reported, agents in the Rio Grande Valley Border Sector found 190 “family members,” and 71 “unaccompanied children.” The latter were, most likely, not “children, ”but instead teenagers or adults who lied about their age.

Agents also arrested another 10 illegals who wrecked their vehicle trying to escape:

Weslaco Border Patrol Station (WSL) agents apprehended 10 migrants after a vehicle crash near Pharr on May 5. Agents observed the driver speed away, lose control, and veer into a fence after the subjects entered the vehicle. All the subjects, including the driver, were determined to be illegally present in the U.S. One migrant was transported to a medical facility for minor injuries and later released.

The total haul after more arrests was 705.

Also on May 5, agents at Eagle Pass, Texas, caught 146 illegals: 93 Cubans, 41 Colombians, seven Venezuelans, one Guatemalan, and three Nicaraguans. The group included 85 single men, 36 single women, an “unaccompanied child,” and “eight family units [composed] of 13 adults and 10 children.”

May 4 ended in another major catch just before midnight:

120 undocumented migrants were apprehended just after making illegal entry into the United States near Normandy. The group consisted of 120 migrants from eight different countries including 54 Cubans, 17 Colombians, 11 Venezuelans, one Chilean, two Ecuadorians, 12 Peruvians, one Syrian, and 22 Nicaraguans. A more extensive breakdown showed 68 single adult males, 27 single adult females, four unaccompanied children, and eight family units [composed] of 11 adults and 10 children.

April 29 through May 1, CBP reported, agents stopped four smuggling attempts and netted 257 illegals.

Most of those were in a group of 227 caught in Starr County. That bunch included 103 single adults, 60 “family members,” and 64 “unaccompanied children.” They came from Cuba and South and Central America.

Sex Offender Caught

And again proving that illegal-alien child molesters are perhaps the most mulish criminals on the planet, agents in the Del Rio Border Sector caught yet another one hiding in a group of 22.

Convicted in 2016, child molester Ramiro Estuhardy Aguilar-Lopez, a Guatemalan illegal, was deported last year. Now he faces a charge of felony re-entering and 20 years in federal prison.

As for Title 42 expulsions, Biden, again, vowed to stop them on May 23, a move his own officials predicted would end in the apprehension of 18,000 illegals per day.

Though a federal judge issued a temporary restraining order to stop Biden, as The New American reported last month, illegals know they have a good chance to be released.

Aside from refusing to enforce the law, Homeland Security Chief Alejandro Mayorkas admitted to Fox News’s Bret Baier that he has freed 836,000 illegals since January 2021 when Biden took office.

And those releases, Mayorkas confirmed, even with Title 42 expulsions.

The numbers, and Mayorkas’ repeatedly and loudly bragging that he will not enforce the law by detaining and deporting illegals, send a loud and clear message: Illegals who make it across the border have a good shot at being released.

So far in fiscal 2022, which began October 1, Biden and Mayorkas have released almost 400,000 illegals, or almost 40 percent of those apprehended.
