On Sunday, “60 Minutes” reported that Chinese nationals are the “fastest-growing group” of illegal immigrants into the U.S. But, without devoting a single second to the threat posed by the illegal arrivals from a hostile communist regime, it blamed “tensions” with the U.S. for making it more difficult to enter legally.

The segment features Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi reporting from a popular gap in the California border, through which illegal aliens are able to easily enter the country without confrontation.

Not once in her 13-minute segment does Alfonsi mention the possibility that any of the illegal immigrants from Communist China may be seeking to do us harm. Instead, she fawns over the Chinese nationals illegally breaking into the U.S., portraying them as “middle-class” bankers, business owners and job-seekers pursuing “freedom.”

“Oh, my goodness,” Alfonsi exclaimed, when one of the Chinese illegals said she was a teacher.

“Many of the migrants told us they made the journey to escape China's increasingly repressive political climate and sluggish economy,” Alfonsi said.

One reason the Chinese are entering the U.S. illegally is that the U.S. is granting fewer visas, due to “tensions between the two countries,” Alfonsi says – failing to mention that the U.S. has tightened its visa policy in an effort to protect itself from the growing threat of Chinese spyinghackingfentanyl facilitation, etc.:

“For years, millions of Chinese entered the U.S. with a visa that allowed them to visit, work, or study.

“But, in the last few years, those visas have been increasingly difficult to secure, as tensions between the two countries have grown.

“In 2016, the U.S. granted 2.2 million temporary visas to Chinese nationals. In 2022, it was just 160,000.”

“It only takes one terrorist“ and Pres. Xi Jinping of China would “happily and enthusiastically“ exploit Pres. Biden’s catch-and-release policies, “to bring pain and terror to the American people,“ Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) warned in a recent Senate speech, noting that U.S. Border Patrol apprehended more Chinese migrants in Fiscal Year 2023 than it did in the previous ten years - combined.

It’s easier to simply enter the U.S. illegally, especially since Chinese nationals are three times more likely to be granted asylum, than are illegal immigrants from other countries, Alfonsi said:

“According to the Department of Justice, last year, 55% of Chinese migrants were granted asylum, compared to 14% for every other nationality. With the odds in their favor and a phone to guide them, there's little to discourage more Chinese migrants from coming through the gap near Jerry Schuster's place.”

And, even if they’re apprehended trying to break into the U.S, the Chinese nationals will be back on the streets within 72 hours, Alfonsi noted:

“Typically, within 72 hours, they are released into the United States and can begin the process of filing an asylum claim.”

“What do some migrants do after being released by border patrol? They call an Uber and they're gone,” the segment ended, teasing another immigration story.

By Elizabeth Jacobs, February 6, 2024
Excerpt: Over the past few years, federal judges have played an increasingly powerful role in the U.S. government’s ability to implement immigration policies and programs. 2023 was no different. Here is a recap of some of last year’s most important judicial decisions that have helped or hindered immigration enforcement efforts across the United States.

Stop Automatically Granting U.S. Citizenship to Children of Foreign Diplomats
By Phillip Linderman
The American Conservative, February 5, 2024
Excerpt: Under State Department’s complicated rules, babies born in this country to blue-list diplomats are not considered U.S. citizens, while white-list offspring, born from parents who are typically administrative or consular staff, are deemed full Americans. This strange outcome ignores the fact that, in both cases, the foreign parents are temporarily in our country, employed by another government or international organization, and enjoying unique diplomatic privileges or immunities.

An Immigration Crisis Beyond Imagining
By Todd Bensman
Imprimis, January 2024
Excerpt: In 1960, the Eisenhower administration began counting the number of foreign nationals “apprehended” or “encountered” by what was then called the U.S. Border Control when crossing into the U.S. over its southern border with Mexico. These figures have been published and closely monitored through the years, and there has never been anything like the numbers we are seeing now.

Border Bill Ironies

National Review, February 6, 2024
Excerpt: As early as this week, the full House of Representatives could vote to impeach DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas for disobeying the law, abuse of power, and dereliction of duty. But at the same time — possibly even on the same day — the Senate could vote on a measure crafted in part by that same cabinet member to “solve” the crisis caused by his own disobeying the law, abuse of power, and dereliction of duty.

Border Bill Is Dead, But Its Spending Provisions May Resurface
By Jessica M. Vaughan
Excerpt: Even though the immigration provisions may be off the table now, Congress still has to pass the annual appropriations bills, so some of these provisions may be reprised. The Senate bill included appropriations of huge sums of money — nearly $7 billion — to support a continuation of the Biden administration’s disastrous policies facilitating illegal migration with taxpayer funds.

Latest Immigration Bill Spends $1.29 billion on Ineffective ATD Program

The Availability of Work Authorization Is a Known ‘Pull Factor’ for Illegal Immigration and the Submission of Fraudulent Asylum Claims
By Elizabeth Jacobs
Excerpt: The bill proposes almost no reforms to end existing and well-known “pull factors” for illegal immigration in the asylum system. Instead, it appears to strengthen a handful of these pull factors.
