DailyKenn.com — Getting back to the old normal is slow in coming. There is, however, an exception: The number of non-citizens crossing into the USA to ostensibly seek asylum is approaching pre-pandemic levels.
Joe Biden scrapped President Trump's stay-in-Mexico policy that required non-citizens to apply for asylum status in Mexico prior to crossing the border into the USA. Effectively, Biden has opened the flood gate for massive border crossing while telling non-citizens to wait a while.

The number of migrant families illegally crossing the U.S.-Mexico border has risen to levels not seen since before the coronavirus pandemic, The Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday.
U.S. Border Patrol agents arrested 7,260 people crossing the border as families during the month of January, an amount comparable to December 2019, according to Border Patrol statistics. Over 5,000 unaccompanied minors were arrested in January, the highest number since the start of the pandemic.
