The Biden Administration has been one of the worst presidential administrations in U.S. history when it comes to migration policy and pricing our southern border. Month after month, they manage to fail in new, spectacular ways and break all the records you don’t want to break.
So this is no surprise…
According to a recently released report from the House Judiciary Committee, Biden’s Department of Homeland Security is deporting just 1% of illegal migrants who attempt to cross into the U.S. via the southern border.
According to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) and Immigration Subcommittee Chairman Tom McClintock (R-CA), DHS and its Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas are relying on a mostly catch-and-release strategy.
…like, 99% of the time.
“According to Jordan and McClintock, more than five million illegal aliens arrived at the border from January 20, 2021, through March 31, 2023. Of those, at least 2.4 million did not have a confirmed departure from the U.S,” Breitbart News reports.
Breitbart adds: “Meanwhile, during that same time period, the report states that DHS released nearly 2.15 million illegal aliens into American communities and just 5,993 illegal aliens first encountered at the border and placed into removal proceedings were ultimately deported from the U.S.”
“In other words, the Biden Administration failed to remove, through immigration court proceedings, 99.73 percent of illegal aliens released into the United States during President Biden’s first 26 months in office,” the report states.
“In fact, the Biden Administration’s 108,102 total removals account for just 2.15 percent of all southwest border encounters during that time and just 4 percent of the number of aliens with no confirmed departure from the United States.”
Maybe Mr. Biden is lucky he has “no choice” but to build 20+ miles of new wall. It sounds like we could use it.
