U.S. sets record with more than two million migrants taken into custody

According to a government report, the number of illegal migrant arrivals have hit an all-time high

Everyone from border agents to politicians to human rights activists have been sounding the alarm that there is a humanitarian crisis at America’s southern border.

Illegal migrant encounters at the southern border were at an all-time low during the Trump administration—with former President Donald Trump making it a campaign promise to have law and order.

However, under President Joe Biden’s leadership, he put Vice President Kamala Harris in charge of securing America’s southern border—effectively dubbing her the “border czar.”

Recently, V.P. Harris continues to claim that the border is closed.

But, according to a government report, the number of migrant arrivals reported along the U.S.-Mexico border in fiscal year 2022 surpassed 2 million in August, hitting an all-time high.

On Tuesday at the White House President Biden was pressed repeatedly by journalists about the ongoing crisis

President Biden said it was “not rational” to send migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border back to nations like Venezuela, Cuba, and Nicaragua.

When a reporter asked Biden why the border is “more overwhelmed on your watch”—he responded, “There are fewer and fewer immigrants coming from Central America than from Mexico. It’s a totally different circumstance.”

Republicans are blaming Democratic leaders like V.P. Harris who was put in-charge of securing the border of ignoring this on-going crisis.

AI sector drives economic growth; Meta adjusts strategy, Palantir’s valuation sparks questions, and Nvidia leads amid rising competition.

The artificial intelligence sector continues to be a major driver of growth for both the U.S. and global economies. Companies at the forefront of AI innovation are influencing market trends and reshaping industries worldwide.

Meta’s stock has rebounded slightly following reports of potential cost-cutting measures and job reductions in its Reality Labs division. Investors are watching closely as the company adjusts its strategy to manage rising expenses and optimize innovation.

Palantir is trading at over 120 times forward sales and 180 times forward earnings, signaling investor confidence but also raising questions about valuation risks. Meanwhile, Nvidia maintains a market cap of $4.2 trillion as a leading AI chip supplier, yet competition is ramping up.

These moves highlight the growing tension between tech giants’ AI ambitions and the practical need to balance profits with heavy R&D spending.

Some analysts, however, warn that rapid growth may not be sustainable, with current levels of AI-related spending potentially overshooting realistic returns.

Analysts forecast $500 billion AI investment by 2026, transforming corporate spending priorities and enhancing economic productivity.

Analysts predict that artificial intelligence companies could invest over $500 billion in 2026, signaling a major shift in corporate spending priorities. This surge in capital allocation comes as businesses look to harness AI to drive growth and efficiency across multiple sectors.

Following strong third-quarter earnings, overall capital spending estimates for 2026 have been revised upward. However, investors are becoming more selective, focusing on companies that can clearly demonstrate revenue benefits from their AI investments, separating hype from tangible results.

AI adoption is expected to boost economic productivity, with significant investment already flowing into AI infrastructure such as semiconductors and data centres. The coming year could redefine how companies leverage technology to gain a competitive edge.
