There were more border deaths last week — the direct result of the Demos’ open-border debacle — meaning more blood on Joe Biden’s hands and those of his inept “border czar” and administration puppeteer, Kamala Harris.

While promising transparency, Biden administration officials continue to enforce his news blackout on the devastating consequences of their illegal alien invitation to come one, come all — resulting in, among other things, more “kids in cages.”

But the administration could not conceal the death of a nine-year-old girl who drowned in the Rio Grande River while trying to illegally enter the U.S. with her mother and little sister. Border Patrol agents found the three migrants washed up unconscious on the Mexican side of the river. Attempts to revive the mother and her three-year-old were successful, but the older child did not regain consciousness.

The death of this and other migrants is tragic, which takes a toll on our Border Patrol personnel who are on the front lines of the Biden/Harris border disaster every day. El Rio Sector Chief Patrol Agent Austin Skero noted, “We extend our deepest condolences to the family and friends of this small child. During these hard times, our agents remain resilient, and I am extremely proud of their efforts to preserve human life.”

Recall that as a result of Biden’s open-border invitation, in recent weeks there were eight illegal aliens killed in a human trafficker’s vehicle, and 13 were killed in another trafficker’s vehicle.

The blood of these poor souls is on Biden’s hands because, as policy analyst Stephen Miller notes, Biden’s immigration policies are “morally monstrous” and “indefensible.”

Despite the fact that Trump administration policies dramatically curbed illegal immigration, in 2019 the Demo Leftmedia publicists attempted to blame Donald Trump for two Rio Grande deaths. But don’t expect them to hang the surging number of illegal alien deaths around Biden’s neck, even though he is directly responsible for that surge.

The Biden border rush will increase in April, as will the humanitarian crisis it has created. But what matters most to Biden, Harris, and their socialist Democrat Party cadre is the surge of illegal aliens votes in future elections.

There are now an estimated 16.5 million to 29.1 million illegal aliens in our nation — competing for the jobs of U.S. citizens and putting enormous downward pressure on the wages of American workers.
