Op-ed: Dispatch from Colombia

South American ally permits mass migration; Biden/Harris look away

The sensational media dispute over Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio, and the nitpicking over individual anecdotes from that town is obscuring a far more important reality. Whatever else we know, it is a documented fact that the Biden-Harris Administration is complicit in a multinational effort, aided by major NGOs and U.N. organizations in collusion with drug smugglers and human traffickers, to funnel migrants into the U.S. at completely disruptive and unsustainable levels.
