Invasion at the southern border

 Lately I have noticed comments from trumpets about the Invasion at Our Southern Border. They blame Biden's "Open Borders" policy. 

Russia invaded Ukraine. To the best of my knowledge no one arrived at our southern borders with armed forces, invading the United States of America. A home invasion is when wannabe burglars enter premises when occupants are present. They usually break and enter carrying weapons. I do not know if I ever watched Invasion of the Body Snatchers. People's bodies invaded by alien seeds? Is the southern border being invaded by body snatching aliens? 

Could it be compared to an invasion of Lantern Flies? I suppose the anti crowd would liken persons fleeing war torn countries to be an invasive species? 

I have read headlines about DeSantis bussing migrants out of Florida. (Today I saw a headline saying Florida is going to take in Hurricane Fiona exiles.) 

By invasion do they mean a large influx of refugees seeking asylum? 

The anti's who use the word invasion are quick to point out that immigrants or illegal aliens come to the country bringing diseases, are responsible for increased crimes, they want to overthrow the U.S. of  A. (I guess they are referring to immigrants from Muslim countries?) They are dirty, they will not learn to speak English, they do not assimilate to the American culture. 

Millions have been arrested at the border. They are being detained until their case goes to court, where upon they are deported. How can people who were never allowed to enter the country be invading it? 

Just a lot of GOP propaganda hogwash. People need to learn the difference between refugees seeking asylum, immigrants and those who enter the country illegally to live as citizens or those who overstay their visas.
