Alexander Stockton - The Opinion video above tells the little-known story of how Mr. Biden and Ms. Harris worked behind the scenes to get the border crisis under control. I found that they acted strategically, out of the spotlight, since the earliest days of the administration. They even bucked their own party and fulfilled Republican wishes, though they've gotten little credit for it. Their hard work finally paid off when illegal crossings dropped significantly this year.
Here's the actual problem with Trumpers: They're ignorant. Totally. Fully. Completely.
They stay inside their own bubble and have no idea what happens outside. Reality is called that because it's REAL. There are receipts for every single thing that was done which has gotten us to today - the lowest level of attempted border crossings since the last decade. There are records being kept. The books are not cooked.
Just because they don't know about something doesn't mean that it isn't true. Real changes are what the title refers to and here are the details:
Under the LA declaration, the Biden-Harris administration has secured unprecedented cooperation to curb irregular migration. Today, for example, Mexico is doing more to stem irregular migration to the United States than it has ever done before. The administration also created alternatives to irregular migration so that individuals fleeing Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela - the primary sources of instability in the hemisphere - could come to the United States in a sponsored, orderly fashion and be able to legally work shortly after arrival so as to contribute to U.S. prosperity and enhance stability in their home countries without delay.They have no earthly idea that Biden and Harris made this happen. They don't know what it is and they refuse to consider its effect on lowering the numbers of migrants appearing at our borders trying to cross.
Critically, the LA declaration built on successful migrant integration efforts in Latin America and spurred multiple countries to create new temporary legal status programs for migrants in order to stabilize these populations and to provide an alternative to migrating further. In May 2024, countries such as Ecuador, Colombia, and Costa Rica at the third ministerial meeting on the LA declaration announced regularization programs for various irregular migrant populations - building on the nearly 2 million Venezuelans who had already been provided status in Colombia alone. Today, more than 80 percent of those displaced in Latin America and the Caribbean have found a home in the region and have not proceeded to the U.S.-Mexico border.
Ignorance isn't bliss, it's simply the state of partisan know-nothings - wallowing in it - still trying to deny that the hard work put in by Biden and Harris has caused the drop of migrants trying to cross our southern border. Never trust nor listen to the ignorant for they don't even know what they don't know.

Vice President Kamala Harris and Migration in the Americas: Setting the Record Straight
Achieving sustainable order at the U.S.-Mexico border - something all Americans rightly expect - is possible only through working on migration at all points along the migratory chain that extends into Latin America and well beyond. Vice President Harris' work in northern Central America and the Biden-Harris administration's efforts through the LA declaration have set the United States up for precisely that kind of sustained order - but only if elected leaders turn away from weaponizing immigration and work on real solutions.
When Trump made it hard for illegals to enter our country all I heard over here is how inhumane he was. Now that it's a huge issue in this election, the Democrats want to project a tough stance on illegal immigration onto Joe and Kamala.
It was inhumane to separate families seeking refuge in America.
This isn't about "projecting" anything. It's about the very thing Trumpers continue to mock out of their own ignorance: Dealing with migration at the source, not just at our own border. This isn't what should be done, it's what already has been done that now finds us with the lowest number of migrants in over 5 years.
But none of the critics above will bother to read what they don't know. They'll continue to wrongly call me a purveyor of false information, when I'm not. The LA Declaration is real and it's been working to stop migration at its source. And in conjunction with other countries, a system has been created and actuated that keeps migrants in their home countries or other countries between their homes and the US.
This is a plan, and it's been working as we see from current border crossing statistics.

This is definitely in the top 5 most dishonest things I've seen posted here.

People objected to Trump's family separation policies. It turns out that when he prioritized family separations, he deprioritized criminals crossing the board:
Donald Trump has portrayed his immigration policies as good for public safety. He said this month that he had the "safest" immigration policy in history. However, data obtained by the Cato Institute through the Freedom of Information Act challenges this narrative. The newly uncovered information shows that while the Trump administration (2017"2020) was prioritizing prosecutions of migrant parents, separating families, and banning asylum, it also released criminals, including those who went on to commit crimes.www.cato.org
During the height of family separation, Trump deprioritized prosecuting migrants with criminal histories to instead spend resources on separating families;
While Trump poured resources into detaining asylum seekers, he also released nearly 58,184 noncitizens with criminal records, including 8,620 violent criminals and 306 murderers;
