Deep dives
Gates Welded Open at Southern Border
Over 100 gates along the southern border have been found welded open, allowing illegal immigrants to pass through unimpeded. These gates were reportedly opened to facilitate water flow and animal migration, but the delayed monsoon season provided immigrants with weeks of opportunity to cross through. The Biden administration is implicated in this issue, with orders to weld the gates open coming from multiple agencies. The open gates have led to a surge in illegal immigration, with an estimated 1,400 immigrants passing through daily.
Mass Exodus of Financial Firms from Wall Street
Wall Street is facing a mass exodus of financial firms, with billions of dollars of assets and tax-paying employees moving away from New York. The exodus began in 2019 and was accelerated by the COVID lockdowns, which caused many firms to realize that they can conduct business remotely from anywhere. High taxes, high costs of living, rampant crime, and various crises in New York have made it an unattractive place to do business. Many firms have moved to Florida, attracted by lower taxes and a better quality of life.
Mask Mandates Reemerging as Flu Season Approaches
Several institutions, including Morris Brown College and Lionsgate Studio, are reimposing mask mandates as flu season approaches and COVID cases rise. Morris Brown College in Atlanta has implemented a two-week mask mandate, along with social distancing measures and temperature checks. Lionsgate Studio in California reinstated its mask mandate after employees tested positive for COVID. The Biden administration continues to push for COVID booster shots and flu shots, while some health officials warn about a potential triple threat of COVID, flu, and RSV respiratory virus this upcoming season.
