After taking a four-year vacay and failing to cover the Biden administration's many, many failings, the media are suddenly interested in reporting stories they wouldn't have touched with a ten-foot pole six weeks ago.

Earlier, we told you about CNN reporting on inflation, and now The New York TImes can be honest about illegal immigration:

They write:

The immigration surge of the past few years has been the largest in U.S. history, surpassing the great immigration boom of the late 1800s and early 1900s, according to a New York Times analysis of government data.

Annual net migration — the number of people coming to the country minus the number leaving — averaged 2.4 million people from 2021 to 2023, according to the Congressional Budget Office. Total net migration during the Biden administration is likely to exceed eight million people.

That’s a faster pace of arrivals than during any other period on record, including the peak years of Ellis Island traffic, when millions of Europeans came to the United States. Even after taking into account today’s larger U.S. population, the recent surge is the most rapid since at least 1850.

Huh.

Excellent question.

This made us chuckle.

So weird, right?

The shamelessness is almost breathtaking.

They were totally lying.

It was surely an 'error.'

Wouldn't have had a clue.

Not.

Amazing, no?

They tried to play that card. And failed.

Bingo.
