In this episode of "Try to Control Your Shock and Amazement"...

As the Biden Border Crisis continues, unabated — by my count, roughly 31 months and running — a startling new statistic illustrates the perils of an open border. 

U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) agents have recorded a roughly 800 percent increase in illegal aliens from China crossing the U.S.-Mexico border, according to updated federal data released on Friday.

What could possibly go wrong? 

We should shudder at the thought. Consider the following: 

Between October 2022 and July 2023, there were roughly 17,700 illegal alien encounters with Chinese nationals along the border — compared to just 1,970 in all of fiscal year 2022, according to the data. And in March, CBP sent a memo (exclusively obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation) to agency officials warning of a growing surge of Chinese illegal aliens. 

The loosened COVID protocols in China have allowed Chinese nationals to flee repressive rule in China and begin their journey to the United States seeking better living conditions. 

According to CBP, custodial interviews indicate that Chinese citizens are requesting asylum claiming religious persecution by the Chinese Government due to their Christian faith. 

Additionally, Chinese nationals reportedly make their own smuggling arrangements for most of their journey, only utilizing elements of smuggling networks to cross the border.

"Sino Joe" Biden was unavailable for comment. 

Listen, I'm not an expert in foreign espionage, of course, but you don't have to be James Bond to guess that ruthless communist dictator Xi Jinping and his ChiCom pals in Beijing have been smart enough to infiltrate the massive surge in Chinese nationals with agents of the government. 

Again, as the crisis continues, what could possibly go wrong?

Gordon Chang, respected author of “The Coming Collapse of China,” and Fox News contributor, previously told the DCNF that there are obvious, potential national security concerns associated with the Chinese surge.

When I first saw that the surge in Chinese migrants, that’s the thought that came to my mind — that these are either Ministry of State Security agents or Chinese military, who are coming to this country to commit acts of sabotage against the U.S.

Therein lies a perfect example of the danger of the Biden Border Crisis. 

In the mind of Biden and Democrats, the security of America be damned — with deference to their hellbent efforts to import as many (what they perceive as) future Democrat voters as they can. Think about that. 

Yep, the very same hypocrites who laughably call Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans "a threat to this country" — and far worse. Here's Biden in September 2022:

[A]s I stand here, tonight, equality and democracy are under assault. We do ourselves no favor to pretend otherwise. Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic. ... there is no question that the Republican Party today is dominated, driven, and intimidated by Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans, and that is a threat to this country.

And the amusing hell of it? 

If reputable pollsters stood along the southern border and asked illegal aliens streaming into the country whether they'd vote Democrat or Republican, if ever given the right to vote, and a majority of them indicated "Republican" (which wouldn't happen but stay with me), Joe Biden and the Democrats would rush to the border and lock arms in a human chain stretching from the Pacific Ocean to the Gulf of Mexico in a desperate effort to keep them the hell out of the country.

Does anyone — including Democrats — doubt that for a nanosecond? Of course, not. I mean, they'd lie their asses off about it, of course, so there's that.

They know it. We know it. And they know we know it.
