Biden Admin Allowed More Than 100,000 Migrants Into US in June, Despite ‘crackdown’ On Asylum; Chairman Green on Reports of ISIS-Connected Smuggling Network Exploiting the Border: “There’s Literally No One President Biden Won’t Turn Away”
Biden admin allowed more than 100,000 migrants into US in June, despite ‘crackdown’ on asylum:
More than 100,000 migrants were allowed into the US in June — despite President Biden’s crackdown that purportedly cut off asylum claims for illegal border crossers.
The stunning figure includes 30,000 illegal border crossers were who were allowed in — more than one-third of all migrants caught at the US-Mexico border, according to leaked documents obtained by The Post.
The documents from the Department of Homeland Security show that thousands of illegal migrants are still being allowed into the US each week, even though Biden had claimed his executive order would stem the tide of migrants being allowed into the US.
Additionally, various loopholes and programs launched by the Biden administration allow thousands more migrants per day into the country by legal routes — including the CBP One app and flights from places like Venezuela and Haiti.
The total figure of migrants allowed to stay in the US in June is 103,500, an analysis by The Post shows.
Illegal border crossings in June dropped by about 20% from the same month in 2023.
The 84,000 migrants caught at the border last month is the the lowest illegal border crossing figure during the Biden administration.
But, the migrants who were released have future court dates in the US — adding to the backlog of more than 3 million pending cases in immigration courts across the country.
Biden’s executive order went into effect June 5 and will remain as long as crossings don’t fall below an average of 1,500 daily crossings for seven days in a row — a level not reached since the height of the Covid-19 pandemic.
If the restrictions pause, they can go back into effect if and when crossings average 2,500 or more for another week. —>READ MORE HERE
Biden admin allowed more than 100,000 migrants into US in June, despite ‘crackdown’ on asylum:
Today, House Committee on Homeland Security Chairman Mark E. Green, MD (R-TN) released the following statement after a shocking report by NBC News that more than 400 inadmissible aliens “who have come to the U.S. from Central Asia and elsewhere as ‘subjects of concern’ because they were brought by an ISIS-affiliated human smuggling network.” According to the report, roughly 150 have since been arrested after entering the country, but 50 remain unaccounted for.
“In President Biden and Secretary Mayorkas’ America, border security and immigration enforcement have become a punchline. There’s literally no one President Biden won’t turn away—including illegal aliens from problematic countries smuggled in by networks connected to ISIS. Every alarm is flashing red, and my committee has long warned that this administration’s open-borders agenda is bringing bad actors into the homeland in droves. DHS has now admitted yet again that this is true. This is unacceptable, preventable, and absolutely terrifying. True leaders would have accepted responsibility, adjusted their policies, and stepped aside for those who will enforce the laws they swore to uphold. Chuck Schumer and Senate Democrats also own this catastrophe—they had the chance to remove Secretary Mayorkas, yet broke with centuries of precedent and refused to even hold an impeachment trial. The Biden administration and its congressional enablers have failed the American people.”
Background:
The Biden administration’s open-borders policies represent an unprecedented threat to America’s national security. Over 370 individuals on the terrorist watchlist have been apprehended attempting to illegally cross our Southwest border between ports of entry since the beginning of Fiscal Year (FY) 2021—an increase of more than 2,000 percent compared to all of FY2017-2020. Individuals from more than 160 countries have been apprehended crossing the border illegally, including aliens from countries on the State Sponsors of Terrorism list. The Committee has documented how DHS’ claims about screening and vetting of inadmissible border crossers are largely meaningless.
