California is reeling from huge spikes in illegal immigration after Texas secured their border.
Texas, home to about 70% of the US-Mexican border, decided to secure their border against illegal immigration against the mandates of despot Biden.
While this has directly resulted in a large overall decrease of illegal immigration nationally, California quickly saw their illegal immigration rise by roughly 50% as smugglers now use California beaches for entry

California Beaches Are a New Gateway for Illegal Immigration

Enright was swimming off the coast of La Jolla, Calif., just north of San Diego, on a sunny Tuesday morning in January when he spotted a boat racing toward the shore, headed straight for him.

As he swam out of the way, Enright said, he initially didn’t know what the white pleasure craft was doing. “But when I saw there was a boat full of people,” he said, “that’s when I knew.”

It was, he realized, another smuggling operation carrying migrants into the U.S. illegally via the sea. When the boat ran ashore, about a dozen people ran out and up a rocky walkway toward a nearby street, where they disappeared.
While illegal immigration by people crossing the U.S.-Mexico border has risen to record levels in recent years, seaborne smuggling of migrants has surged as well—particularly in Southern California.

Their dramatic arrivals, some of which locals, including Enright, have caught on video, have become an increasingly common sight for people who visit or live by beaches, sometimes sparking fear and anger.

The number of times migrants illegally entered or attempted to enter California by boat has more than doubled from 308 in the federal fiscal year that ended in September of 2020 to 736 in the same period last year, according to Customs and Border Protection.
