Sometimes, the issue is so simple that you feel as though something is being hidden. It cannot really be so straightforward. There must be a complicated plan, a hidden agenda, some occult and nefarious goal that is concealed behind layers of misdirection.

American conservatives are especially prone to this unnecessary conspiratorial thinking. Many say the issue is not race. It is communism or atheism or a plan by “elites” to implement global government. Indeed, the elites want racial division because this helps them somehow.

The Biden administration repealed Title 42, which had limited the ability of migrants to claim asylum. With that gone, migrants could say they had a “fear of return” and receive a date in an immigration court under Title 8...........more........
