Ex-border chief: US already in ‘worst unmitigated self-inflicted border crisis,’ ending Title 42 only escalates it

Mark Morgan, Former Customs and Border Patrol Commissioner, discusses the ‘frustrating’ remarks from politicians within the last weeks that, “title 42 is going to cause an avalanche. It's just going to cause an avalanche we already have, and  make it worse. The crisis doesn't begin when title 42 ends, we’re already in the throes, we're already in the middle of a crisis. In the first 22 months of this administration, over 5.5 million immigrants have illegally entered the country, and over a million of them have gotten way.” Morgan comments that the Biden administration is completely unaware to the fact that title 42 doesn’t increase the national security threat, saying “we're already in the middle of a national security threat, within the past 22 months there have been apprehensions of people from 160 different countries, over 98 illegal aliens have been apprehended on the terror screening database in this last fiscal year alone.” Saying, “we're already in the middle of the worst unmitigated self-inflicted border crisis in our lifetime. When title 42 ends, it's just going to make it worse.”
