President Joe Biden made his way to sunny St. Croix Wednesday for a vacation with the First Lady and other members of his family. The White House refused to issue a guest list to the press about the trip.
As Biden's public schedule remains blank, the crisis at the southern border continues at catastrophic levels. New records are being reached every day and the flow of illegal immigrants is unrelenting.
NEW: Border Patrol’s Del Rio sector (Eagle Pass), reports apprehending over 22,000 illegal immigrants in just a one week span from 12/17 - 12/23. Massive numbers for just one of nine sectors on the southern border, as mass catch & release continues on the largest scale ever seen.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson is demanding more money from the federal government, but is still refusing to call on the Biden administration to implement asylum changes, like remain in Mexico, that would blunt the flow.
QUIET PART OUT LOUD: Chicago Mayor admits he doesn’t want a secure border, just more of your tax money to “maintain this mission” of resettling more illegal immigrants and providing them “a pathway to citizenship” — but in Texas, not in sanctuary city Chicago. pic.twitter.com/bGm7o9XMOM
