Congratulations to Ed Sperry for an excellent “fictitious” story in the January 26, 2022 issue of the Bitterroot Star on how a Canadian citizen solved the closed northern border Covid problem by simply entering through the southern border illegally. Ed closed his story expressing how “sad” it is that such an event could even be considered.
As I have expressed in previous letters, I find this situation at the southern border to be much worse than just mentally upsetting. I consider Biden’s policies or lack of policies down there to be treasonous.
Just think about it people, while the Democrats continue to perpetuate a story of insurrection on January 6, 2021, which I find to be ridiculous, they are running a criminal operation at the southern border. The President and Vice President purposely continue to NOT visit down there and refuse to take questions during their limited press conferences. The general theme is, “there’s nothing to see down there other than some minor problems not worth mentioning.”
Let me mention a few of these minor problems:
• Over two million persons have entered our country illegally;
• Over one hundred thousand are known to have entered without being caught;
• Vetting and testing for diseases are non-existent (while our citizens are forced to “mask-up and get vaccinated if you want to keep your job or visit a restaurant in some locals);
• These illegal aliens are immediately eligible for all kinds of welfare and financial support while we continually read and see evidence of ramped homelessness and lack of affordable housing for our citizens;
• These illegal aliens are being bused and air-lifted all over our country under darkness and secrecy;
• Along with the illegal human migration, there has been a flood of illegal drugs being smuggled in. We have a drug overdose pandemic being spread with the Fentanyl produced in China. Just within the last two weeks, I heard that nine overdoses on Fentanyl had occurred in Helena over a 48 hour period!!!
In my mind, the first priority for our national leaders is to protect us by securing our borders against invasion. Folks, there is an invasion occurring at our southern border. The total irony of this situation is that our leaders are now talking war with Russia if they cross the Ukraine border.

Meanwhile, immigrants from the Caribbean are entering Florida illegally by sea while DeSantis turns a blind eye.
And speaking of the holier-than-thou Ed Sperry, I see he hasn’t weighed in on the nasty flags and bumper stickers denigrating Pres. Biden in the most vulgar way. Maybe we’ll hear from the sainted Ed once he figures out how to pin the blame for the unacceptable vulgarity on Hillary Clinton.

Agreed. It’s simply scapegoating an entire group of people, mainly for the color of their skin. Notice that there is never a mention of undocumented immigrants sneaking in through Canada or visitors illegally overstaying their visas.
