Every year, the U.S. gives green cards to about 1.2 million legal immigrants and another 1.4 million visas to foreign nationals. The nation’s mass legal immigration process is in addition to hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens who successfully crossed the border or overstay their visas annually.
Red State AGs Warn Biden They Will Sue Administration over Changes to Immigration Rules
Six red-state attorneys general are warning the Biden administration they will take legal action if he oversteps his authority to implement radical and wide-ranging agendas, including the rollback of immigration rules.
The six attorneys general, Patrick Morrisey (WV), Ken Paxton (TX), Austin Knudsen (MT), Lynn Fitch (MS), Todd Rokita (IN), and Leslie Rutledge (AR) signed the letter addressed to President Joe Biden, highlighting concerns over the tone he has set in his early days in office by signing a flurry of executive actions, besting the pace of all his predecessors.
The officials noted that Biden’s first week “appears to indicate” that his administration “may be following the unfortunate path of executive unilateralism” and warned that they will take action in the event of “cabinet officials, executive officers, and agencies” moving beyond their authority. The Republicans listed specific issues that may arise — from the administration attempting to implement the “extreme ‘Green New Deal'” agenda to “tearing down immigration statutes” via “executive fiat.”
“Overreaching and defying Congress will not be rewarded or succeed. Our States have led the charge in successfully challenging unauthorized and unlawful executive actions, as you know from your years as Vice President,” they warned. “You can be assured that we will do so again, if necessary”:
Whether it be directing a wide swath of federal agencies to exceed their limited statutory mandates to implement the extreme ‘Green New Deal’ agenda that Congress has not enacted, making transformative changes to our healthcare system that were specifically rejected in passing the Affordable Care Act, strong-arming businesses into changing practices to adhere to unreasonable and twisted interpretations of long-extant statutes, having the Department of the Treasury and the Federal Reserve conjure up massive boondoggle spending sprees without congressional authorizations and appropriations, usurping the authority of the States to protect local streams, or tearing down immigration statutes passed by Congress by executive fiat, we will not hesitate to defend America against illegal executive actions.
“When Presidents do not take care to ensure that executive agencies live up to their obligation of reasoned decision making, the task often falls to us as State Attorneys General to challenge their actions in court,” they continued.
“While we would rather you keep agencies from running amok in the first place, we will not hesitate to step up to the plate when our States are harmed by agency malfeasance,” they added:
2021.01.27 Letter — Presid… by Fox News
The letter comes as Biden breaks records in terms of executive actions in the early days of his presidency. Revoking former President Donald Trump’s constitutional 2017 travel ban, thereby resuming immigration from countries known to harbor terrorists, was one of the first executive actions Biden took upon assuming office last week:
Biden signed executive actions terminating Trump’s orders declaring a national emergency on the Southern border to fund the construction of a border wall, rescinding the exclusion of non-citizens from the census, ending the “Remain in Mexico” policy for refugees, and suspending most deportations for 100 days.
Biden also released a bill to give amnesty to all illegal immigrants in the United States.
White House press secretary Jen Psaki defended Biden’s immediate focus on immigration as a broader approach to fighting for “racial equity.”
Further executive actions on immigration currently face delays, according to a Thursday report from Fox News. Even so, Democrat lawmakers are seeking to recruit Republicans to join their amnesty-driven agenda.
This week, dozens of progressive House lawmakers sent a letter to Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, demanding future coronavirus relief measures to include recurring payments that extend to those who may be residing in the country illegally.
EXCLUSIVE: Gulf Cartel Killing Field Discovered in Mexico near Texas Border
Mexican activists searching for victims of cartel kidnappings found a killing field only miles from the Texas border. The property, which appears to be an abandoned ranch, is believed to have been used by the Gulf Cartel to murder and dispose of the bodies.
The discovery took place in recent days when activists searching for their loved ones found several drums believed used to incinerate victims. Also found were human remains on a property known as Ranch San Gerardo between the cities of Rio Bravo and Valle Hermoso. The region is controlled by the Gulf Cartel, a criminal organization responsible for a large part of the violence in Tamaulipas.
Sources with direct knowledge of the event confirmed to Breitbart Texas the discovery of the killing field and the forensic fieldwork being done at the site. Activists who were looking for remains of missing victims were walking and combing rural areas near Rio Bravo. It was during those walks that an activist happened upon an abandoned warehouse that housed 55-gallon drums containing human remains.
Outside the drums, the activists found bullet casings, suggesting the victims were shot shortly before being stuffed into the drums for burning in a practice known as “guiso” or cooking. It is common for cartels to use fuel, tires, and wood, thus reducing their victims to mostly ash.
Soon after the discovery, Mexico’s National Guard and a special office within the federal attorney general’s office responded. Authorities subsequently sealed the area, documented the scene, and began collecting samples. Despite the gruesome discovery, no authorities have released any information about the cartel killing field.

The writers would face certain death at the hands of the various cartels that operate in those areas including the Gulf Cartel and Los Zetas if a pseudonym were not used.
