Exhaustive and exhausting overview of the US/Mexican border crisis, which has been building since the early 1980s. Good mix of micro/macro, i.e., the policy decisions that led to the shitshow and the individuals whose lives have been irreparably harmed as a consequence. Blitzer offers no easy solutions, which is sadly appropriate, since the coming administration would have ignored his recommendations anyway.

P.S. Fuck Stephen Miller.
