Even Democrats realize Biden's Title 42 blunder is about to be a massive disaster

"Look, I believe in immigration, but when is enough, enough?"
These aren’t my words – they came from Democrat Representative Henry Cuellar of Texas. I bet they are also the feelings of most Americans.
Americans may be divided on the number of immigrants to admit every year, whether to prioritize family or employment in selecting them, or how to deal with the millions here illegally. But most understand that this country can only function under the rule of law – and the Biden administration’s handling of immigration and the border is as lawless as it is incompetent.
After May 11, border agents will no longer be able to expel people attempting to enter the U.S. illegally under Title 42, a COVID-19-prevention authority used since 2020. Title 42 was like a bar bouncer, who can keep people out with no paperwork.
Post-Title 42, illegal aliens processed at the border or apprehended as they try to sneak in can only be removed under regular immigration law (Title 8) – and that’s a lengthy process more like evicting a bad tenant.
