“Crime Keeps On Falling, but Prisons Keep On Filling” has made people laugh since the infamous New York Times headline appeared in 1997.

To this it may soon add “Biden Has Thrown Open the Borders, Yet Hispanic Voters Are Dumping Him.”

Getting a cause-and-effect relationship exactly backward is known as a “Fox Butterfield headline,” after the Times reporter who wrote the article.

Crime falls because criminals are behind bars. Duh.

Only Times writers would be puzzled by that.

Now some commentators are perplexed that Hispanic support for President Biden is falling like piñata candy at a 5-year-old’s party.

Biden has all but erased the U.S. border with Mexico—wouldn’t Hispanic people like that?
