Cities around the country are considering a reinstatement of mask mandates and small businesses fear the government will implement new lockdowns to stop the spread of the Delta variant.
But at the U.S.-Mexico border, where the illegal immigration crisis continues by the hour, cases of Wuhan coronavirus are exploding. Illegal immigrants aren't being properly tested by the federal government, whose officials are putting them on buses and planes to destinations around the country.

Now we learn there was a 900% increase in cases at the border in the Rio Grande Valley in the first 2 weeks of July.
Where’s the outrage from Dems & the media?
There's always a double standard.
