Cartel human smuggling business is turning entire border towns into war zones

Nature abhors a vacuum.

[FoxNews] Mexican drug cartels are making millions in profits from the hundreds of thousands of migrants arriving at the U.S.-Mexico border and are now turning entire border towns into war zones.

#7 The last bulwark against the encouraged invasion is breached by the Roberts Court in a triumph of "principled fidelity to the Constitution" over sanity. Because the Founders never envisioned a Biden/Obama Malignancy!
