Marialito Boatlift The Perfect Analogy For Democrat’s Open Border Policy

WFM – August 2, 2023

We might look at the Biden administrations ‘open border’ policies as reminiscent of another leftist President, Jimmy Carter.

On April 20, 1980, the Castro regime announced that all Cubans wishing to emigrate to the U.S. are free to board boats at the port of Mariel west of Havana, launching the Mariel Boatlift.

The first of 125,000 Cuban refugees from Mariel reached Florida the next day. Castro, to facilitate the so called ‘Marialito boatlift’ released the most dangerous felons from Cuban prisons. The result of this little slight of hand by Castro, convicted murderers, rapists, child molesters and every other type of criminal felon were released on to the U.S. mainland.

The CIA and most law enforcement entities had the suspicion, since proven correct, that Castro’s release of those felons was the result of an orchestrated ‘op’ by the Soviet intelligence apparatus, heavily involved in Cuba at that time.

Violent crimes, mainly in Florida and California, at the time, spiked as a result. The leftist inspired ‘water walkers,’ who largely applauded the ‘Marialito boatlift’ went silent as the diastorous results of this criminal migration took root.

We might now ask how long until the disasterous result of this current failed leftist inspired incursion swamps law enforcement and threatens what little freedoms we have left. The law of unintended consequences seems a fitting descriptor for the ill thought policies of the leftist hive mind which is easily manipulated by those who would selfishly profit from the destruction of our republic.
