“The Democrats had abandoned their working-class base to chase what they pretended was a racial group when what they were actually chasing was the momentum of unlimited migration”. DANIEL GREENFIELD
Joe Biden is on record that illegals are “already Americans,” and under Alejandro Mayorkas, the Biden Department of Homeland Security is effectively the Department of Human Trafficking. John Fonte of the Hudson Institute makes a strong case that “operational control of the border is no longer in American hands,” and under the control of Mexican cartels. These are criminal organizations but behind the scenes, a more powerful dynamic is in play. Lloyd Billingsley
DHS to Let Immigration Cheats Keep U.S. Citizenship

Rather than outright banning civil denaturalization efforts, the Mayorkas memo imposes such onerous restrictions that it has the practical effect of ending civil denaturalization.

Former Vice President Joe Biden will nominate Alejandro Mayorkas to run the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), despite his role in creating huge Latin American migration and his involvement in several visas-for-sale scandals.
Joe Biden's pick to run the DHS immigration agency – Alejandro Mayorkas – is a political gift for the GOP, says Jessica Vaughan at CIS: "Cronyism, corruption, swampiness, and the immigration issue." https://t.co/859b16NhN4
Mayorkas: 'We Will Continue to Enforce Our Immigration Laws'; 'We Have Effectively Managed an Unprecedented Number of Noncitizens'
(CNSNews.com) - In his opening statement before the House Homeland Security Committee on Wednesday, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas told lawmakers that contrary to what they've seen with their own eyes, DHS has been "executing a comprehensive strategy to secure our borders and rebuild our immigration system."
Later, in response to a question, Mayorkas asserted: "We have effectively managed an unprecedented number of non-citizens seeking to enter the United States, and interdicted more drugs and disrupted more smuggling operations than ever before."
But as the numbers reflect, under President Joe Biden, there are more noncitizens, drugs and smugglers coming across the southwest border than ever before. That border is not at all secure, and Mayorkas admitted that the record pace of illegal immigration is about to get worse:
"With the Title 42 public health order set to be lifted, we expect migration levels to increase as smugglers seek to take advantage of and profit from vulnerable migrants," he said.
"We will continue to enforce our immigration laws. After Title 42 is lifted, non-citizens will be processed pursuant to Title 8, which provides that individuals who cross the border without legal authorization are processed for removal. And if unable to establish a legal basis to remain in the United States, promptly removed from the country."
Mayorkas said his department started planning for the lifting of Title 42 last September, and he outlined "six pillars" to "manage the rise in non-citizen encounters."
-- "One, surge resources including personnel, transportation, medical support and facilities;
-- "Two, increase efficiency without compromising the integrity of our screening processes to reduce strain on the border.
-- "Three, administer consequences for unlawful entry, including expedited removal and criminal prosecution.
-- "Four, bolster the capacity of NGOs and coordinate with state, local, and community partners.
-- "Five, target and disrupt transnational criminal organizations and human smugglers.
-- "And six, deter irregular migration south of our border in partnership with other federal agencies and nations.
Mayorkas said the Biden administration "inherited a broken and dismantled" immigration system that was "already under strain."
But, as the numbers show, President Trump's efforts to reduce the cross-border flow, including the Remain in Mexico policy, did significantly reduce illegal immigration in the year before Joe Biden was elected president.
Joe Biden, however, promised to dismantle Trump's strict policies during his presidential campaign. In fact, Biden promised that "on day one" he would send Congress an immigration "reform" bill, and he said he would "keep families together," as well as provide a "clear road map to citizenship" for all the illegal immigrants currently in the United States.
Biden's words went out to the rest of the world -- get into the U.S. while you can, claim asylum, and someday you, too, may become a U.S. citizen. Since his election, Biden and his administration have done nothing to discourage illegal immigration except to say, "don't come."
Biden has never even been to the overrun border, where record numbers of people (and drugs) are flowing in.
'We have effectively managed an unprecedented number of non-citizens'
Mayorkas on Wednesday said the current system "is not built to manage the current levels and types of migratory flows. Only Congress can fix this," he said. "Yet, we have effectively managed an unprecedented number of non-citizens seeking to enter the United States, and interdicted more drugs and disrupted more smuggling operations than ever before."
Mayorkas said the anticipated "significant increase" in illegal immigration once Title 42 is listed "will strain our system even further," but he said DHS "will address this challenge successfully, but it will take time. And we need the partnership of Congress, state and local officials, NGOs and communities to do so."
Mayorkas said he has requested funding to hire 300 new Border Patrol agents "to ensure the safe and humane treatment of migrants" and to do asylum processing.
"We are requesting additional funds to counter human and drug smuggling operations, combat the heinous crimes of child exploitation and human trafficking, and stop goods produced by forced labor from entering our markets," he added.
Resign or face impeachment
Wednesday's hearing was often contentious, with Mayorkas insisting that "we will not lose operational control of the border" when Title 42 is lifted, something that's supposed to happen on May 23, pending a court challenge.
Rep. Michael McCaul, a Texas Republican, told Mayorkas, "I've never seen the border more broken. It is not under operational control. It is out of control.
"And don't take my word for it. When I looked at the findings of the court, the cause is not climate change or some weird migration phenomena. It is the fact that on day one, your administration rescinded the Migrant Protection Protocols and Remain in Mexico because you didn't like the former President. And that's fine.
"But don't -- don't rescind what was working. This program was working, and the courts said that. Their findings of fact were that the Migrant Protection Protocol program was decreasing the volume of inadmissible aliens arriving in United States on land from Mexico. Further, they said the termination of MPP has contributed has to the current border surge."
McCaul told Mayorkas, "Your responsibility by law is to protect the United States, both air, land, and sea. You have failed in this mission when it comes to our land border, and my state and our Texas Guardsmen that...died saving two narco-raffickers. You are complicit."
Mayorkas did not have an opportunity to respond.
Rep. Clay Higgins (R-La.) called the border situation a "disaster."
"The disintegration of our national sovereignty cannot be sustained. Anyone that has two brain cells, they could perhaps bump into each other, would know that is abject failure down there. So if you would identify our border as effectively managed right now...how would you identify failure?" Higgins asked.
Higgins noted that he and other Republicans have called on Mayorkas to resign. "Next year, if we have the majority in this committee, which we shall, if you're still in office, you face impeachment. I asked you as a man, own this thing. Out of respect for you and the office, I ask you to reflect upon that, and I'll give you my remaining 45 seconds to respond."
Mayorkas responded: "Congressman, I couldn't disagree with you more when you say that -- when you state that our nation's sovereignty is disintegrating."
And that was all Mayorkas said in response.
Biden’s DHS Confirms Plans to Siphon Healthcare Services Away from Veterans to Illegal Aliens at Border
President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has seemingly confirmed plans to siphon healthcare services away from American veterans treated at Veterans Affairs (VA) to illegal aliens arriving at the United States-Mexico border.
During a hearing before the House Homeland Security Committee on Wednesday, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas confirmed to Rep. Ashley Hinson (R-IA) that the Biden administration is in talks with VA officials to potentially transfer doctors and nurses to the southern border to treat illegal aliens arriving every day in record-breaking numbers.
“Is the department planning to reallocate resources, doctors and nurses, from our VA system intended to care for our veterans to illegal immigrants at our southern border?” Hinson asked.
Mayorkas responded, stating that “the resources that the medical personnel from the Veterans Administration would allocate to this effort is under the judgment of the secretary of Veterans Affairs, who prioritizes the interests of veterans above all others for very noble and correct.”
When Hinson asked if Mayorkas had any conversations about the plan, he responded, “I have not personally, but of course, our teams, our personnel have. and I’d be very pleased to follow up with you.”
The remarks come as Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) had sought clarification on reports that the Biden administration was looking to siphon doctors and nurses away from the VA toward illegal aliens at the border.
“In the words of one [Customs and Border Protection] official, ‘We’re going to take medical services away from people that really deserve that, who went to combat … to give free medical attention to illegal migrants,'” Hawley wrote in a letter to Mayorkas.
Already, Americans are forced to subsidize medical care for illegal aliens to the tune of $18.5 billion annually. Last year alone, Americans footed the bill for more than $316 million in medical care for border crossers and illegal aliens who were detained in Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody.

NO ONE BUT A FOOL THINKS THERE ARE ONLY 15.5
MILLION ILLEGALS IN AMERICA NOW. THERE ARE
MORE ILLEGALS IN CA THAN THAT. THERE ARE
NEARLY 50 MILLION ILLEGALS AND MANY BREEDING
ANCHOR BABIES FOR 18 YEARS OF WELFARE. NOW DO
THE MATH ON WHAT THE COST OF ALL THAT 'CHEAP'
LABOR IS!
The Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) released an analysis using U.S. Census Bureau data that shows the illegal alien population has ballooned since Joe Biden took office by one million, bringing the national overall total to 15.5 million at a taxpayer cost of $143.1 billion a year.
Report: Illegal Aliens in U.S. Up 1M Under Biden, Total now 15.5M, Costing Taxpayers $143.1 Billion a Year
The Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) released an analysis using U.S. Census Bureau data that shows the illegal alien population has ballooned since Joe Biden took office by one million, bringing the national overall total to 15.5 million at a taxpayer cost of $143.1 billion a year.
Just over the course of Biden’s first year as president the cost to taxpayers for the new one million illegals is $9.4 billion.
The summary of the FAIR report stated:
These staggering increases in both the size of the illegal alien population and the cost to the American public are a direct result of policies put in place since President Biden took office, concludes the report.
The report, “2021 Update: How Many Illegal Aliens Live in the United States?,” reveals how a slew of policy changes both at the border and in the interior of the country propelled rapid surges in both the magnitude and the costs of illegal immigration. Specifically, upon taking office, the Biden administration canceled agreements with Mexico and governments in Central America, and terminated border wall construction. These policies were effectively deterring new illegal immigration before President Biden came to office, and allowed for the expedited return of most of those caught entering the country illegally.
Similarly, the administration abandoned nearly all immigration enforcement in the interior of the country, resulting in record low numbers of illegal aliens who were removed from the country. Under these policies, which directly defy federal laws, nearly all illegal aliens in the U.S. are off-limits to apprehension by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), which is also severely constrained in where they can arrest even the small segment of the illegal population still subject to removal.
“President Biden and the people he appointed to key positions in his administration have pursued the most radical open-borders policies in the history of any sovereign nation, and these new numbers bear that out,” Dan Stein, president of FAIR, said in the announcement of the analysis, “If not for the COVID pandemic, which forced the administration to keep Title 42 in place last year, the additional influx and costs to American taxpayers would have been far greater.”
“Rather than reinstate effective border and interior enforcement policies, the administration is doubling down on its ruinous open-border policies and is set to end Title 42 on May 23. These new illegal alien population and cost estimates by FAIR, and the imminent removal of the last effective border enforcement mechanism, leave no doubt that unchecked illegal immigration and staggering cost burdens to the American public are the explicit goals of the Biden administration,” Stein said.
Fox News reported on the analysis:
FAIR claims that Biden “has effectively abolished the mission of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), preventing the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) from securing our southern border, and implementing measures that encourage mass illegal immigration.”
The report points to the narrowed interior enforcement, the ending of the Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP), ending of border wall construction, continued designations of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) and promising amnesty for illegal immigrants already in the country as part of an immigration reform proposal.
The report says the states with the most illegal immigrants are California (3.3 million), Texas (2.2 million), Florida (1.2 million) and New York (1.1 million.) The states with the fewest illegal immigrants are North Dakota and West Virginia, with 6,000 each.
The report said some businesses are seeking cheap labor now the country is opening back up following the coronavirus pandemic.
“Businesses are once again hiring, and many unscrupulous employers are using this as an opportunity to turn to reliably cheap labor to undercut the market and make up for lost profits resulting from economic shutdowns stemming from the pandemic,” the report stated. “These unethical hiring practices occur even though millions of Americans remain unemployed or underemployed.”

Cotton: Biden WH Thinks ‘Borders Should Never Be Enforced’
Thursday on Fox News Channel’s “America’s Newsroom,” Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) weighed in on the Department of Homeland Security’s recently unveiled immigration plan ahead of the end of Title 42.
Cotton called President Joe Biden’s approach to the border “deeply ideological.” He added members of the administration “think that borders should never be enforced.”
“It goes to show how deeply ideological Joe Biden’s approach to the border is,” Cotton advised. “We should be protecting our border. The only people crossing our border should be those who have a legal right to cross the border. Illegal aliens have no reason to be in this country. They should be turned back. If they have an asylum claim, they should have to wait in Mexico for that asylum claim. That would be effectively managing our border.”
“Alejandro Mayorkas and Joe Biden think an effective way to manage the border is to expedite the entry of illegal aliens,” he continued. “They’re patting themselves on the back for surging resources to include, apparently, doctors and nurses from our veterans’ affairs hospitals and clinics to the border to get more illegal aliens into the country faster. It is a deeply ideological approach from people who don’t respect borders. They think that borders should never be enforced.”

38 Overheated Migrants Found in Tractor-Trailer near Border in West Texas
Big Bend Sector Border Patrol agents may have saved the lives of 48 migrants locked inside a tractor-trailer near Sierra Blanca, Texas, on Saturday. Agents found the migrants during an inspection at the Interstate 10 immigration checkpoint.
Sierra Blanca Station Border Patrol agents assigned to the Interstate 10 interior immigration checkpoint on April 23 observed a tractor-trailer rig approaching for inspection. During the initial interview, agents observed the driver appeared to be nervous and in a hurry to clear the checkpoint, according to information obtained from Big Bend Sector Border Patrol officials.
Becoming suspicious, the agents referred the driver to a secondary inspection station. A Border Patrol K-9 alerted to the possible presence of drug or human cargo while searching around the outside of the trailer.
The agents opened the locked trailer and found 48 migrants inside with limited air circulation and no means of escape in case of a crash or abandonment by human smugglers. The agents report the migrants were sweating profusely and appeared to be overheated.
The agents got the migrants out of the trailer and transported them to the Sierra Blanca Border Patrol station for their initial medial evaluation and screening.
“The fight against human smuggling is ongoing,” Big Bend Sector Chief Patrol Agent Sean L. McGoffin said in a written statement. “Organized human smugglers are putting innocent lives at risk, the thoroughness of our agents, and our K-9 partners, brought an end to this dangerous scheme.”
Officials did not disclose the age, gender, or nationality of the apprehended migrants. They also did not report if any needed additional medical attention.
Agents turned the case over to Homeland Security Investigations for further investigation into the human smuggling attempt.
