The Texas-Biden war is proof that the border madness is far from over

If you thought the Biden border insanity has ended, read Todd Bensman’s report from Eagle Pass, Texas, last week in The Post.

Or jarring new reports about how many migrants Team Biden let in, in some way or another — and how few are turned back or deported.

Turns out, as Bensman reported, Texas is virtually at war with Team Biden over illegal immigrants.

Gov. Greg Abbott has expanded his Hold the Line program, using state police and the National Guard to enforce the law and keep migrants from sneaking across.

Yet federal Border Patrol agents, state officials believe, are all-but-recruiting migrants to enter, flashing their agency’s green and white colors to signal them — under orders from Washington meant to thwart Texas’ efforts at enforcement.

Could anything be more insane?

Despite Abbott’s $5.1 billion program, President Joe Biden’s “green uniformed men” deliver migrants across “on a silver platter.” A Border Patrol agent even cut a wire to let some in.

Those who gain entry may get a Notice to Appear an ICE office, and then are freed and mostly never heard from again.

At the same time, Biden’s CPB One app, which lets migrants make border appointments to claim asylum, officials are opening the door to more than a half-million of them a year — in open defiance of Congress.

As The Post reported, 104,000 are waiting for appointments in northern Mexico, with more on the way.

And get this: A new report shows that US Immigration and Customs Enforcement failed to issue court summons to 80% of migrants who crossed illegally under Biden’s “parole” program just before the end of the Title 42 policy.

These people will almost certainly never get a court date to press their supposed asylum claims, let alone show up in court. (Especially since few have legitimate claims.)

If by some miracle federal agents were to try to track down and deport these migrants, they’d meet resistance from “sanctuary” cities and states.

The insanity extends far beyond the border, with thousands of migrants continuing to overwhelm cities, especially New York.

That’s got Mayor Eric Adams in a never-ending search for new places to park them — school gyms, the Aqueduct Racetrack, the Creedmoor Psychiatric Center.

These ideas often get shot down — only to somehow resurface, as he once finds himself desperate again for sites. He even got flyers to be passed out at the border begging migrants to “consider” heading to some other city besides New York.

Make no mistake: We’re not opposed to legal immigration, but this uncontrolled madness is wreaking havoc.

Even pro-Biden Adams (eventually) blasted the prez for creating the mess.

But now several other Democrats at the City Council, including Speaker Adrienne Adams, are joining him, teaming up with Republicans to demand Biden to fix the border.

“What we need now are real solutions . . . with President Joe Biden addressing the crisis on our borders” and sending “financial relief,” read their letter to him, Gov. Kathy Hochul and Adams.

Biden won’t budge, of course; he’d rather fight the city, Texas and everyone else who bears the insane burden of his open-border policy.

No, the madness won’t truly be over until there’s a major change in the top position at the White House.
