    • Report: Biden Officials Prepare for ‘Mass Migration Event’ at Southern Border



      Top officials at the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency are reportedly preparing for a “mass migration event” at the United States-Mexico border if President Joe Biden ends the last set of Trump-era border controls. Reports have circulated in recent weeks that Biden is considering ending the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) order known as Title 42, first imposed by Trump, which gives federal immigration officials broad authority to quickly return border crossers to their native countries.

      An internal ICE email, reviewed by the Washington Post, warned top agency officials that they should prepare for a “mass migration event” if Biden ends Title 42. The email also suggested that officials coordinate with non-governmental organizations (NGOs) that would help them quickly release tens of thousands of border crossers and illegal aliens into the U.S. interior.

      Last week, Breitbart News exclusively reported that Biden’s DHS is considering ending Title 42 on April 1, 2022. Such a move, Rep. Tony Gonzalez (R-TX) says, would double monthly illegal immigration levels at the southern border.

      Similarly, Axios reports that Biden’s top-level officials are bracing for “a massive influx of more than 170,000” illegal aliens if Title 42 is ended. Currently, the officials estimate that about 25,000 foreign nationals are waiting on the Mexican side to rush the border when Biden ends Title 42.

      While Sens. Bob Menendez (D-NJ), Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Cory Booker (D-NJ), and Alex Padilla (D-CA) have lobbied Biden to end Title 42, Sens. Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) and Mark Kelly (D-AZ) have urged the administration to continue enforcing the authority.

      “Given the impacts that changes to Title 42 could have on border communities, border security, and migrants, we urge your administration not to make any changes to Title 42 implementation until you are completely ready to execute and coordinate a comprehensive plan that ensures a secure, orderly, and humane process at the border,” they wrote.

      Meanwhile, the Mark Zuckerberg-funded National Immigration Forum has been lobbying Biden to end Title 42 for months. Likewise, associates of former President George W. Bush have called the policy “arbitrary and harmful” while advocating for its elimination.

      In 2021, more than two million border crossers and illegal aliens arrived at the southern border. This year, experts predict more than 2.1 million will arrive.

      At the same time, hundreds of thousands of border crossers and illegal aliens are being released into the U.S. interior every few months. From January 2021 to August 2021, for example, more than half a million were released into the U.S. interior.

      In January of this year, more than 62,500 border crossers and illegal aliens were released into the U.S. interior — a foreign population more than twice the size of Princeton, New Jersey; nearly twice the size of Lexington, Massachusetts; and more than six times the size of Jackson, Wyoming.

      • Take Notice to what you don't see or what's not reported.
        Where are these people? They are not on the streets begging for food or homeless.
        They have transportation, moved throughout the country being housed, fed, free medical.
        They are a standing army but for what use?

        All this along with crime murder drugs the list goes on.
        No one cares......

          • Exclusive–Hauman: Get Ready for a Border Surge the Likes of Which Our Country Has Never Seen



            Open borders advocates – including those who serve in the Biden administration and on Capitol Hill – have been demanding that President Biden end Title 42 since the day he took office during a full-blown pandemic.

            Title 42 is a public health provision that was invoked by the Trump administration in 2020 at the onset of the COVID pandemic, allowing for the expedited removal of people crossing our borders illegally.
            While it is impossible to quantify a negative, it is reasonable to assume that preventing significant numbers of people traveling in large groups and coming from countries where vaccination rates were low to nonexistent, saved a lot of lives. Despite its success, many in the Biden administration have always viewed Title 42 not as an essential public health policy, but an obstacle to mass migration. That’s all that matters to them – public health, safety, and national sovereignty be damned.

            Capitalizing on the Centers for Disease Control’s (CDC) assessment that the public health threat posed by COVID has abated, they finally got their wish. It was just announced that Title 42 has been terminated, effective May 23. Now the Biden administration will pivot its efforts toward managing a massive wave of illegal immigration they plan to unleash on the American public.

            Leaving aside the fact that declaring complete victory over COVID may be a bit premature – new outbreaks are cropping up around the world – Title 42 is the last remaining mechanism in place allowing for any control of our borders that are already experiencing unprecedented levels of illegal immigration. Title 42 was never meant to do that, as its critics readily point out. However, considering that the Biden administration has torched just about every mechanism to deter and control illegal immigration, Title 42 has been the only thing standing between us an all-out chaos at the border.

            All-out chaos at the border isn’t mere conjecture. It is precisely what the Biden administration is planning for. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has already set up a war room enlisting the aid of a panoply of federal agencies to help them manage an unprecedented surge of migrants crashing our borders once Title 42 is scrapped. Absurdly, the administration is preparing for a disaster that is entirely preventable. According to Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.), DHS’s Office of Intelligence has warned the administration that a million migrants could cross the border within the first six weeks after Title 42 is ended.

            Alarm bells were also set off by members of the president’s own party, particularly those who represent states and districts on the front lines of a crisis that is bound to get a lot worse come May 23. Arizona’s two (very nervous) Democratic senators, Kyrsten Sinema and Mark Kelly, dashed off a letter to President Biden last week urging him not to cancel Title 42 without a viable plan that will control the border in its absence.

            Likewise, Democratic House members whose Texas districts abut the border joined Republican colleagues in their delegation and sent a similar letter urging DHS and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to consider the impact that ending Title 42 would have on their communities. “We urge that the CDC’s Title 42 order remain in place and that DHS continue to use it until such time as the number of apprehensions along the southwest border drops to a manageable level,” they wrote. Of course, their plea to the Biden administration assumes facts not in evidence – namely that the people making the policies actually want to see illegal immigration return to “a manageable level.” Hint: they don’t – this is all by design.

            Fortunately, May 23 is nearly two months away, and there are supposedly one or two semi-rational White House policymakers when it comes to immigration. This begs the question of them – do they want this presidency to be defined by chaos and lawlessness at the southern border? If not, they must reverse the termination of Title 42 and go back to the drawing board.

            • Already stretched thin, border agents must now used politically correct pronouns under new edict

              New requirement comes as border agents are bracing for historic surges of illegal migrants


              By John Solomon


              Battered by COVID-19, waves of illegal immigrants and fears of even larger surges ahead, Customs and Border Protection officers have a new burden: they must now be sure to use proper pronouns for LGBTQI+ migrants.
              The new requirement was included Thursday at the bottom of a much larger announcement by the Homeland Security Department concerning changes instituted on International Trans Day of Visibility.

              “Facilitating effective communication at U.S. ports of entry and beyond: CBP has provided a job aid and memorandum to all staff that will serve as a guide for facilitating effective communication with the diverse public CBP serves, including LGBTQI+ individuals,” the agency said. I

              “The guidance includes using gender-neutral language and an individual’s self-identified pronouns and name,” it added.

              CPB‘s requirements came as a Biden Administration made sweeping actions across numerous agencies to create new accommodations for transgender and non-binary people.

              The State Department on Thursday announced that US Citizens will be able to choose "X" as their gender rather than "Male" or "Female" on their passports

              Meanwhile, the Transportation Security Administration on Thursday morning announced new standards for screening transgender, nonbinary and gender-nonconforming airline passengers at airport checkpoints.

              The agency said the changes are to "improve the screening experience for all passengers" and announced them on International Transgender Day of Visibility.

              TSA also said the new standards will go into effect after the implementation of new technology that will in part replace the current, gender-based system, which will be more accurate and "advance civil rights and improve the customer experience of travelers who previously have been required to undergo additional screening due to alarms in sensitive areas."

              If the testing of the new technology proves successful, the agency will begin deploying the other updates to airports later this year including:
              • Reducing the number of pat-down screenings
              • Streamlining identity validation
              • Making TSA PreCheck more inclusive to include an "X" gender marker option on its application
              • Updating its Transgender, Nonbinary, and Gender Nonconforming Passengers web page to provide information to the traveling public on all gender-related updates

              • EXCLUSIVE: Leaked DHS Document Reveals Biden’s Mass-Migration Plan Offers ‘Broadscale Release Mechanisms’

                The Department of Homeland Security is disseminating a mass migration plan devoid of removal mechanisms to replace the soon-to-end CDC Title 42 emergency order. The plan predicts that DHS traditional processing capabilities will be overwhelmed and require an increase in the use of “broadscale release mechanisms.”

                The plan, reviewed by Breitbart Texas, acknowledges the end of Title 42 will likely result in a surge in illegal migration along the southwest border. The increase is already manifesting itself as apprehensions rise. In March, Border Patrol agents apprehended more than 200,000 migrants.
                The draft plan, recently circulated to senior DHS staff, is dated February 17, 2022. A source within the agency, not authorized to speak to the media, says the plan offers no concrete options other than to exhaust more resources to absorb what will likely be a historic wave of migrants at the southern border.



                The source says the agency is already exceeding temporary detention capacity at most facilities and the plan will likely mean more holding space will be needed. Cost estimates to operate one temporary facility exceed $5 million per month, according to the source.

                The DHS Southwest Border Mass Irregular Migration Contingency Plan tells senior leadership to prepare “federal to federal” support agreements to quickly move personnel and funds to DHS agencies.

                The plan offers assumptions once Title 42 is ended and includes the acknowledgement that few legal pathways to removal are left in the wake of early executive actions under the Biden Administration.

                The document offers ominous predictions about the impacts of the pending surge to the U.S.-Mexico Border. The DHS document claims most released migrants do not appear for subsequent removal proceedings. It continues:
                • Current pathways to removal will be limited. Component use of broadscale release mechanisms (i.e., Own Recognizance (OR) with issuance of a Notice to Appear (NTA), or parole and Alternatives to Detention (ATD)) with administrative tools are necessary to ensure humane and efficient treatment of migrants)
                • Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) will continue to leverage the FEMA Emergency Food and Shelter Program (EFSP) to provide life sustaining food, shelter, and supporting services. In addition, NGOs shall provide travel assistance from CBP custody. (Footnote: The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 made available $110 million to FEMA EFSP for this purpose.)
                • ICE Alternatives to Detention (ATD) will be implemented on a greater scale. (Footnote: Increased processing speeds, throughput, and the use of ATD is the quickest solution for processing FMUAs where Title 42 is no longer viable. However, relatively low percentages of FMUAs reported for removal proceedings in the past once released on ATD. There is no evidence that a higher percentage of noncitizens will report for removal proceedings in the future if released, regardless of how expeditiously they are processed.)

                The plan includes an additional focus on a “Whole of Western Hemisphere” approach as a solution to the worsening border crisis. Part of the plan, reviewed by Breitbart Texas, includes efforts to improve living conditions outside the United States.

                The plan does not specify a cost associated with the pending surge in migration.

                • Jim Banks: Illegal Aliens to ‘Account for Most of America’s Population Growth’ if Biden Ends Title 42

                  Rep. Jim Banks (R-IN) says illegal aliens will “account for most of America’s population growth” in 2023 should President Joe Biden follow through on plans to end Title 42 — a public health authority that has allowed federal immigration officials to quickly return illegal aliens to their native countries. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) made the announcement last week that the Biden administration would wind down Title 42 — first imposed by former President Donald Trump — by May 23.

                  “If Title 42 ends, illegal immigrants will account for most of America’s population growth next year,” Banks wrote in a statement online. “A major win for Joe Biden and a major loss for America.”

                  The result, Biden officials admit, is potentially 500,000 border crossers and illegal aliens at the U.S.-Mexico border every month, all with plans to be released into the nation’s interior. This indicates that a foreign population the size of Atlanta, Georgia, or Tuscon, Arizona, could arrive at the border over the course of just 30 days.

                  The impact is widespread, as experts have long researched, especially for red states like Banks’s Indiana. Whereas coastal, deep blue states with massive foreign-born populations continue to see boons in wealth transfers with continuing flows of record-high immigration, red states experience a siphoning effect of less financial capital, less wealth, and less federal resources.

                  In terms of housing, alone, where single-family rents have skyrocketed to new heights — increasing by more than 24 percent year-to-year — a continuing rise of immigration-driven population growth is likely to send prices even higher.

                  A 2017 study, published in the Journal of Housing Economics, found that “increases in immigration into a metropolitan statistical area are linked with rising rents and home prices in that metropolitan statistical area and neighboring metropolitan statistical areas.”

                  “An increase in the number of immigrants equal to 1 percent of a metropolitan statistical area’s total population was linked with a 0.8 percent increase in rents and a 0.8 percent increase in home prices,” the study notes. “This same increase in immigrants was associated with a 1.6 percent rise in rents and a 9.6 percent rise in home prices in surrounding metropolitan statistical areas.”

                  Since Biden took office, he has grown the nation’s illegal alien population by 1.1 million. That comes as the foreign-born population has hit a record 46.6 million and the U.S. population has hit a record 331.9 million, driven mostly by legal immigration levels.

                  Without reductions in overall immigration, the foreign-born population is projected to hit 70 million by 2060.

                  Every city in America is now a border city, says House Minority Leader McCarthy

                  According to top GOP representatives, the Biden border crisis will soon expand through the whole nation. On Monday, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) led a press conference lambasting the CDC’s decision to end border policy Title 42. Both the Trump and Biden administrations utilized the measure during the COVID-19 pandemic to turn away migrants who posed health concerns. McCarthy stressed Biden’s immigration policies have already welcomed a record number of illegal immigrants into America. He added, this has led to an exhaustion of America’s border resources and copious deaths of America’s youth due to the increased distribution of fentanyl.

                  “There’s no longer a few border cities, every city in America is now a border city,” stated the California Republican. “Border agents told us about because of the overwhelming movement of people coming through and the cartels understanding, you’re getting 240 miles at a time that are unprotected.”
                  McCarthy further lamented Republicans in both chambers of Congress have warned Biden about the devastating consequences of his policies. Additionally, he pointed out Republicans have been making trips to the border ever since the crisis first unfolded. Meanwhile, Texas Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) detailed how illegal immigration has negatively affected his state. Roy said Mexican cartels warring with each other are taking advantage of Biden’s policies to advance their narcotics and human smuggling operations. He also said cartels have also used their money and influence to employ American citizens for these activities.

                  In the meantime, the representatives said they have introduced a proposal to block the CDC from killing Title 42, but noted no Democrats have joined their effort. Joe Biden’s Customs and Border Protection chief has reportedly admitted there will likely be an increase in illegal immigration when Title 42 expires on May 23. Other border officials have said the situation will be more dire while calling the next surge a “mass migration event.”

                  • Texas Governor Orders Buses to Transport Released Migrants to D.C.

                    Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced orders Wednesday for state officials to charter buses to transport migrants to Washington, D.C. in response to the Biden Administration’s plans to end the Title 42 coronavirus protection protocol and begin large-scale mass releases.

                    Governor Abbott ordered the Texas Division of Emergency Management to prepare to use buses to transport migrants released by the Biden administration to Washington, D.C
                    “To help local officials whose communities are being overwhelmed by hordes of illegal immigration who are being dropped off by the Biden administration, Texas is providing charter buses to send these illegal immigrants who have been dropped off by the Biden administration to Washington, D.C.,” Governor Abbott said during a press conference on Wednesday afternoon in Weslaco, Texas. The governor said the first drop off location will be the U.S. Capitol steps in the nation’s capital.

                    “We are taking them to the United States Capitol where the Biden administration will be able to more immediately address the needs of the people that they are allowing to come across our border,” the governor added. The governor signed the letter to TDEM Chief Nim Kid ordering the action.

                    “Texans have a backbone and the will to secure our border,” Abbott stated. “Two things that Joe Biden does not have.”

                    The governor said the Biden administration and their NGO partners are already putting migrants on buses and taking them to San Antonio.

                    “I’ve got a better idea,” he explained. “Instead of busing these people to San Antonio, let’s continue the ride — all the way to Washington, D.C.”

                    Breitbart Texas first reported the administration’s plans to end the Title 42 program put in place by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention during the Trump administration. The move is expected to bring a massive spike in the already record-setting number of migrants illegally crossing the border from Mexico into the United States.

                    Texas Congressman Michael McCaul (R-TX) told Fox News on Wednesday that the administration is anticipating approximately a half-million migrants to cross the border in the weeks following the end of Title 42.

                    “They’re talking about 500,000 in the next five weeks,” McCaul told Fox News. “That would be 100,000 people per week coming into the country. We don’t know who they are.”

                    Most released migrants are being let go with no Notice to Appear or court date under a program called Alternative to Detention. Officials disclosed in a DHS Southwest Border Mass Irregular Migration Contingency Plan first reported by Breitbart Texas’ Randy Clark that they would expand the ATD program while admitting “there is no evidence that a higher percentage of noncitizens will report for removal proceedings in the future if released, regardless of how expeditiously they are processed.”

                    In the Critical Assumptions section of the plan, officials stated:

                    • Florida Governor Ron DeSantis Says He Will Bus Illegal Immigrants Dumped in Florida to Biden’s Home State of Delaware

                      Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced on Wednesday that he would send the illegal immigrants dumped by Biden’s administration in Florida to Biden’s home state of Delaware.

                      Governor DeSantis vowed to transfer the illegal immigrants to sanctuary states like Delaware, saying they now have the funding for rerouting.

                      It can be recalled that DeSantis introduced a proposal last December to add $8 million to the state’s budget in order to send those illegals out of the Sunshine State and into Democrat areas such as Marthas Vineyard and Biden’s home state of Delaware.

                      “If businesses or contractors are dumping people who are illegal into Florida from Southern Texas, you know, we’re going to go after their ability to do business in Florida,” Gov. DeSantis said Wednesday after he signed the No Patient Left Alone Act into law in Naples, Florida.

                      “If Biden is dumping people, which he has dumped people, they fly them in at 2 in the morning. They haven’t done it lately, but they did it many months ago. We now have money where we can reroute them to sanctuary states like Delaware. And we’re going to do that, to make sure we’re keeping people safe here.” DeSantis asserted

                      On the same day, Texas Governor Greg Abbott also announced he would begin to use up to 900 charter buses or “as many as needed” to send illegal immigrants to Washington, D.C., as part of his strategy for the overwhelming influx of illegal immigrants.

                      “To help local officials whose communities are being overwhelmed by hordes of illegal immigrants who are being dropped off by the Biden administration, Texas is providing charter buses to send these illegal immigrants who have been dropped off by the Biden administration to Washington, DC,” Governor Abbott announced in his press conference.

                      “We are sending them to the United States Capitol, where the Biden administration will be able to more immediately address the needs of the people that they are allowing to come across our border,” Gov. Abbott continued.

                        • NYers buy Medicaid for illegal migrants in Gov. Hochul, Dems’ $220B budget

                          Illegal immigrants aged 65 and over will be able to obtain taxpayer-financed health care in the record-breaking $220 billion state budget signed by Gov. Kathy Hochul and passed by the legislature — a move critics say will incentivize the undocumented to flood New York for the benefits. A provision in the budget allows up to 20,000 elderly residents living here illegally to apply for Medicaid, the public health insurance program for the needy that served more than 7 million residents during the height of the coronavirus pandemic. An individual would just need to have income of less than $18,754 to qualify.

                          Medicaid is largely funded by the federal government with contributions from the state and local governments. But US law bars using federal dollars for illegal immigrants, so New York will have to foot the entire $220 million cost to cover senior undocumented immigrants. “It’s a slippery slope. New York disincentivizes people from ever becoming citizens. New York blurs the distinction. We should not be rewarding people who are not following the rules,” said state Sen. George Borello (R-Jamestown).

                          The language in the budget does not specify what eligibility requirements will be put in place for undocumented residents to qualify for Medicaid benefits, such as living in New York or the US for a certain period of time. The Hochul administration had no immediate comment on the rules. But the current state Health Department rule for Medicaid recipients has a lax residency standard. An applicant just has to prove he lives in New York State “regardless of the length of their residence.” “This is new territory,” said Bill Hammond, the health care analyst at the Empire Center for Public Policy. “Part of the problem with undocumented people is they don’t have documents. They’re living off the grid to an extent.”

                          Democratic lawmakers defended the illegal immigrant-friendly policy and said concerns over the costs cited by Hochul’s budget office limited the program to elderly non-citizens. An estimated 700,000 undocumented residents live in New York. “Both Houses had included larger health coverage expansions for undocumented immigrants in our budget proposals. But the Budget Division estimated a much higher price tag than even the conservative-leaning Citizens Budget Commission, based on extremely high enrollment assumptions,” said Assembly Health Committee Committee Chairman Richard Gottfried (D-Manhattan). “As a result, we were only able to win this narrower proposal. This proposal will expand coverage to tens of thousands of aging New Yorkers.”

                          The budget also provides post-partum medical coverage to mothers from 60 days to one year regardless of immigration status, Gottfried noted. Gottfried said there was “no opposition on the merits” to providing preventive medical care to illegal immigrants in the Assembly Democratic Conference.

                          Assemblyman Tom Abinanti (D-Tarrytown), a member of the health committee, agreed. “The only way to keep everyone healthy is to provide everyone with health care. It’s good health policy. It was the right thing to do,” he said. Immigration advocates applauded extending coverage to mom and seniors who are undocumented residents. “Much more needs to be done, but we are pleased that no longer will we deny our elders and post-pregnancy access to quality, affordable health care,” said Murad Awawdeh, executive director of the New York Immigration Coalition.
