By Andrew R. Arthur
Excerpt: Were the implications of the president’s border policies not so dire, the Pollyannish way Biden’s CBP releases its border data would be almost cute, in the manner of a toddler caught stealing the last cookie and denying it.

In fact, the clear import of the coalition’s decision is that no one will be able to establish the standing necessary to challenge an administration’s flouting of congressional mandates regarding the arrest, prosecution, and likely the detention of persons in the immigration and criminal justice contexts.
