Cartel smuggling business boom despite drop in recorded migrant crossings, rancher on Arizona border says
DOUGLAS, ARIZ. — Tyler Klump’s cattle ranch on the Arizona border is a super highway for illegal crossings from Mexico — and the evidence is everywhere.

On a recent tour of the property, The Post saw discarded water bottles, backpacks, “carpet shoes” — footwear with slip-on pieces of carpet to hide footprints in the sand — and ladders used to scale the border wall.

Recorded migrant crossings in July plummeted to 2020 lows following years of record highs during the Biden-Harris Administration. The Border Patrol apprehended 57,000 migrants who came over illegally last month — down from 250,000 in December.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

"Recorded" crossings are down...

Is that because fewer are crossing or because fewer are being recorded?

Enquiring minds and all that.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
