Secret Documents Reveal Biden's Border Crisis Was An Intentional Policy

As President Joe Biden’s immigration crisis overwhelms the United States and wreaks havoc on the state’s resources, confidential documents suggest the president’s open border policies were intentional.

The Immigration Reform Law Institute (IRLI) filed a lawsuit against Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS), claiming the agency halted the 287(g) program, which assists in the deportation of illegal migrant child rapists, attempted murderers, assailants, carjackers, and other known criminals.

In August 2023, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) revealed that the government ended the program in January 2021— right after Biden entered office. However, the compromised agency gave no reason why the government did that.

The 287(g) program allows local law enforcement agencies to work closely with ICE to capture illegal aliens who have committed crimes. They were then able to turn the migrants over to federal officials for arrest and deportation.

“It is ironic that the Biden administration insists it is ‘the most transparent in history’ when, in reality, it has repeatedly attempted to change immigration laws without congressional authorization and then tried to hide the evidence of its misdeeds from the American public,” IRLI Director of Investigations Matt O’Brien said.

Flash forward to September 2023, the IRLI filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to ICE, requesting to obtain internal documents regarding the agency’s suspension of the 287(g) program. However, the government did not comply with a rule that they must reply within 20 days. ICE authorities have yet to respond.

“Increased cooperation between ICE and local law enforcement is critical and makes our communities safer, so of course, this administration wants to limit that effort,” IRLI Executive Director Dale Wilcox said in a statement. “There is no benefit to this country or its legal residents by keeping criminal aliens in the country, yet it appears to be a priority of this White House. The American people own those emails, yet we are not allowed to see them because it might embarrass this administration and expose their extremist agenda.”

Twenty-three agreements between local law enforcement and ICE were set to go into effect before Biden suspended the program. However, they were canceled after the president took office. Currently, ICE has 287(g) relationships with nearly 140 law enforcement organizations nationwide.

Obozo’s directions made Joe open and keep the border open. He’s running the show for SloJoe and will be running MO’s campaign for Pres. hoping to get her elected so he can have another term.

We need to get out of the UN

We need to get out of the WEF

We need to get out of the WHO

We need to get out of NATO

All of these organizations work against the interest of the United States.

George Washington’s advise to stay out of international entanglements never rung more true than today.

As if a casual glance could not confirm the same thing.

Yes, it is that our immigration laws are not enforced, it is that they are broken.

Republicans either can’t figure it out, or if they notice, refuse to say a word about it.

For instance, Speaker Johnson is agonizing over a solution as he attempts to have Republicans take responsibility for the whole thing.

His Biblical worldview lasted about as long as the payoff/blackmail was introduced to him. It is probably blackmail.

While the general overall policy switch has been an open secret, this lists specifically some pretty damning specifics, like this tidbit:

[cancelling] the 287(g) program, which assists in the deportation of illegal migrant child rapists, attempted murderers, assailants, carjackers, and other known criminals.

Who could possibly defend this?

The headline is misleading as ICE still has not released the documents.

Twenty-three agreements between local law enforcement and ICE were set to go into effect before Biden suspended the program.

Note to local and state LEOs, you don't need ICE permission to do your job.

When you have custody a criminal alien you control when and where you release them. Since ICE won't pick them up just drop them off at the ICE office once a day.

Make sure the media is notified of the aliens' criminal records and the time and place of their release to ICE.

Video and pictures of dangerous criminal aliens being released on the street in front of an ICE office (and ICE refusing to take custody of them) will quickly become a major problem for state and local politicos. Its also really bad optics for the administration, DHS and ICE.

Of course it was! It is a deliberate attempt to destroy the USA, period, because once the USA falls there is no where else, no more “new worlds,” to flee to in order escape evil world powers.

Perhaps, more specifically, Obama will have his pick of the most fit to serve on his Civilian National Security Force (that he says will be "is just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded as the military").

They will be more trustworthy and reliable than ordinary Americans; USA residency and special benefits for them and their families will depend on satisfactory job performance.*

*That is how folks with the cojones to steal national elections think.
