If you're a RedState regular reader, you know that Biden's border is a disaster and that the month of December saw the highest number of illegal immigrants ever showing up at our southwest border -- a staggering 302,034 of them. That figure doesn't even include all those who got away.

You would also know that the president has been trying to neuter Texas' right to defend itself from the onslaught and that he's suddenly changed his tune about the seriousness of the situation after three years of making it easier for illegals to cross into the country. It's an election year, after all, and people are actually paying attention.

X owner Elon Musk isn't buying all Biden's posturing and gaslighting, though, posting Saturday that more laws aren't the answer. "No laws need to be passed," he tweeted. "All that is needed is an executive order to require proof before granting an asylum hearing. That is how it used to be."

Problem solved.

Musk was responding to a typically pugnacious missive from Biden issued Friday where he demanded Congress pass a bill giving him more money for the problem and the ability to close the border when he feels like it:

For everyone who is demanding tougher border control, this is the way to do it.

When Silicon Valley entrepreneur David Sacks commented that there are plenty of laws -- there's just no enforcement by Biden, Homeland Security head Alejandro Mayorkas et al. -- Musk was in agreement:

Musk also agreed with Sacks that Biden's policies have created what is unquestionably an open border:

Interestingly, Musk no longer seems to be a supporter of a wall:

"Building a wall is a red herring," Musk wrote in another post on X  Friday.

"No wall is needed to fix this situation. Border Patrol is being instructed to facilitate illegal entry at scale into the United States." 

"The fundamental problem is that anyone can claim asylum with zero proof, which means all of Earth can come to America."

Musk visited the southern border in Eagle Pass, Texas, in September and livestreamed what he saw, giving people a firsthand account of the migrant crisis.

While I agree with most of Musk's common sense, no BS comments on the border, I don't see how a wall or some sort of physical barrier wouldn't help. If you make a task harder, fewer people will attempt it.

Still, it's interesting that two wealthy guys on Twitter make a lot more sense than the man who's supposed to be in charge, Joe Biden. The reality, however, is that Biden has no desire to stem the flow of the border, and if he could, he'd probably open up the floodgates even wider.

Polls are showing that it's a top issue for voters. Hopefully, in November they'll prove it with their vote to end this disastrous presidency.
