Associated Press writes propaganda piece implying biden *tightened* border rules

Wanna see pro-Democrat, pro-regime propaganda at its most obvious?  Try this POS from the Associated Press today:

"Asylum-seekers say joy over end of Title 42 turns to anguish induced by new US rules"

Ah.  For those who don't pay attention, Title 42 was a Trump-era policy that allowed people who illegally entered the U.S. to be instantly deported, without letting them stay in the U.S. for years or decades waiting for a hearing.

Biden ended it, by decree.  Cool, eh?  The corrupt courts refused to allow Trump to end Obozo's unconstitutional order allowing kids who'd been brought into the U.S. illegally to stay here (DACA), but biden was allowed to end Trump's Title 42.  Interesting.

So after biden announced Title 42 was rescinded, another few million aliens started making plans to enter the U.S.  The internet was full of videos of mile-long lines of aliens lined up on the U.S. side, ready to be bused by the regime to cities far from the southern border.

The Democrats realized they needed damage control right away, so they got their friends at the AP to write a story alluding to "new rules" for "asylum seekers."

Because the title used the phrase "turns to anguish," all readers naturally assumed that the alleged "new rules" would reduce the number of illegals welcomed to stay in the U.S. by the Democrat regime.

So "new rules," eh?  What were those new rules, exactly?

The story doesn't say, because there are NO rules making things harder for illegals.  Oh, the story whines that a regime app for smartphones called "CBP One" is having some "technical problems," but then notes that you don't have to use it to enter.

The propagandists at the AP also use a cunning, deliberately confusing comparison to make readers believe fewer people are entering than before:  
>>"More than 79,000 people were admitted under CBP One from its Jan. 12 launch through the end of April. [But] from May 12 to May 19 an average of 1,070 people per day presented themselves at the ports of entry after securing an appointment on the app.">>

<<Democrats: "Wow!  Went from 79,000 to just 1,070 people per day!  Those 'new rules' have really reduced the number of aliens getting to stay in the U.S.!"  

Really?  But of course the 79,000 was a total between Jan 12 and the end of April.  How many per day was that?

Take your time.

Most Americans under 40 don't know how to do even that simple calculation.  If you're not sure, ask your parents.

Turns out there are 107 days between Jan 12 and the end of April.  So now what?

Now divide 79,000 supposed "asylum-seekers" by 107 days and what do you get?  738 people per day.  Meaning more people entered per day after the supposedly harsher "new rules."

In short, the AP article is horseshit, designed to make readers believe the biden regime has tightened the border instead of vastly loosening it.  

See, both the biden regime and the AP know that only a tiny percentage of Americans can do even basic math.  So they can do misleading comparisons like this, confident that no one will do the math.

It's like the old joke by cynical citizens of communist regimes that the government just announced that chocolate rations were being increased from 10 grams per day to 50 per week.

Dem voter: "I don't get it.  Why is that a joke?"
