Biden’s DHS Chief: Sanctuary Country Orders Ensure ‘Majority’ of Illegal Aliens Not Deported; Safe Spaces for Criminal Aliens? Biden Admin. and Mayorkas Kneecap ICE and CBP; Map Shows How New Biden Policy Turns Every Community into an Illegal-Alien Sanctuary
Biden’s DHS Chief: Sanctuary Country Orders Ensure ‘Majority’ of Illegal Aliens Not Deported:
President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas says the agency’s new so-called “sanctuary country” orders will ensure that the “majority” of illegal aliens living in the United States are not deported.
On Monday, Mayorkas announced that the administration has started implementing its latest sanctuary country orders that protect most criminal illegal aliens by barring Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents from arresting and deporting them.
“Today is an important step forward in ensuring that our workforce is empowered to exercise its prosecutorial discretion and focus its enforcement efforts on those who pose a threat to our national security, public safety, and border security,” Mayorkas said:
DHS will carry out our mission to safeguard our country justly and humanely. In making our enforcement decisions, we will focus our efforts on the greatest threats while also recognizing that the majority of undocumented noncitizens, who have been here for many years and who have contributed positively to our country’s well-being, are not priorities for removal.

In February, DHS officials issued initial orders that prevented ICE agents from arresting and deporting criminal illegal aliens unless they had been recently convicted of an aggravated felony or had been identified as a known gang member or terrorist. —>READ MORE HERE
Safe Spaces for Criminal Aliens? Biden Admin. and Mayorkas Kneecap ICE and CBP:
The crisis at the southern border may have fallen out of the nightly news cycle, but that doesn’t make it any less of a crisis. More than 115,000 illegal migrant encounters were logged by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection in October; 33,500 pounds of drugs were confiscated.
There are also COVID concerns. At a recent Senate committee hearing, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) asked HHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas “How many illegal immigrants have you released into the United States who were COVID-positive?” Mayorkas couldn’t answer.
Despite these concerns, the Biden administration has decided to make it more difficult for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to apprehend suspected criminal aliens. Sec. Mayorkas released a memo addressing “Guidelines for Enforcement Actions in or Near Protected Areas.”
“When we conduct an enforcement action – whether it is an arrest, search, service of a subpoena, or other action – we need to consider many factors, including the location in which we are conducting the action and its impact on other people and broader societal interests,” Mayorkas writes in the memo. “To the fullest extent possible, we should not take an enforcement action in or near a location that would restrain people’s access to essential services or engagement in essential activities.” —>READ MORE HERE
