As the record-setting deluge of illegal aliens continues to swamp our borders, enforcement of U.S. immigration laws has all but collapsed under the Biden administration.

According to a new congressional report, at least 3.3 million migrants have been released into the country since Joe Biden took office. Of the nearly 6 million illegal alien encounters at the southern border from Jan. 20, 2021, to Sept. 30, 2023, at least 3,095,577 illegal aliens had no confirmed departure 

 from the United States. The “at least” qualifiers are important as Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials admit that recent release rates are even higher, averaging 5,000 per day. Additionally, the report’s 3.3 million figure does not include the more than 1.7 million known “gotaways” who have eluded Border Patrol under the Biden administration.

Breaking down the dismal data:

• Of 5.6 million encounters from Jan. 20, 2021, through Aug. 31, 2023, only 6.8 percent of migrants (379,951) were even screened for asylum eligibility, such as credible fear.
• As of Aug. 31, 2023, DHS removed just 2 percent of illegal aliens who did not show up to their immigration court hearings after establishing credible fear of persecution at the border.
• As of Dec. 10, 2023, 1,323,264 illegal aliens with final orders of removal still remained in the U.S.

According to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Fiscal Year (FY) 2023 report, a mere 2,540 of the 72,678 non-criminals removed in FY23 were from the interior of the country. To be fair, this isn’t entirely due to lax efforts by ICE; hundreds of uncooperative sanctuary jurisdictions thwart ICE operations every day. These lawless sanctuaries are, of course, emboldened by the administration’s own inaction under DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.

While arrests increased from 2022 to 2023, the number of criminal aliens arrested by ICE is still far below what it was in 2018. In FY2018, more than 138,000 aliens with pending charges or convictions were arrested by ICE. In FY2023, fewer than 74,000 aliens with pending charges or convictions were arrested.

Last week, 14 House Democrats signed onto a Republican resolution formally rebuking Biden’s border and immigration policies. The resolution is largely symbolic, but reflects softening support for the administration’s open-borders agenda.

In California, a Democratic bastion, registered voters now tell pollsters that U.S. borders are not secure by a margin of 62 percent to 30 percent. That sentiment is even stronger among likely voters.

The House committee report concluded, “With such a large and seemingly unending influx of illegal aliens into the United States, Americans would be right to conclude that the border crisis is not a side effect, but instead a goal of the Biden administration’s radical open-borders immigration policies.”

Younger people should have more incentive to oppose uncontrolled immigration than anyone else. Firstly, they are now being forced to compete for jobs with a never ending tidal wave of cheap labor from the developing world. This is true for both high school and college graduates. Second, even as they are forced to work for lower wages (pushed down by mass legal and illegal immigration), their ability to save money, pay off debts, buy a home and start a family is being horribly undermined. This is true for both Millennials (born between 1980 and the late 1990s) and Generation Z . . . Read more about Millennials, Gen Z and Mass Immigration

PORTLAND, Maine—For 36-year-old Sheena, every day has been a struggle since she and her husband wound up homeless on the streets of Portland—Maine’s largest city on the Atlantic coastline—five months ago.

The couple had been “kicked out” of a motel after two years, though they “never once got in trouble,” she said.

Suddenly, they had nowhere else to go.

On Dec. 16, 2023, the couple were living in a pitched tent in the city’s largest homeless campsite near the Casco Bay Bridge in Harbor View Memorial Park.

Sheena said she blames the high cost of rent and limited affordable housing for the rapid growth of homeless encampments throughout the city.

She also feels the city gives “first priority” to newly arrived illegal immigrants, which “makes it even worse” for the unsheltered homeless population. . . . Read more about Homeless Problem Surges in Portland, Maine, as State Brings in Illegal Immigrants

They wanted to live in America, but not at an emergency shelter created by New York City at Brooklyn’s Floyd Bennett Field.

A tent city was erected at the former airfield where New York plans to house about 2,000 illegal immigrants who have come to the City.

But when a bus arrived Sunday afternoon, several of the illegal immigrants said it was not good enough, according to the New York Post.

“We weren’t told where we were going. I work in the Bronx. My kids go to school in the Bronx. For us to live out here is ridiculous. We’re going back,” one migrant told the Post. . . . Read more about Migrants Refuse to Stay at New NYC Shelter, Demand New Accommodations

The war between Hamas and Israel forces everyone to recognize an uncomfortable truth: Immigration is a foreign-policy issue.

In Germany, as throngs of Hamas supporters took to the streets, Henry Kissinger told Welt TV, “It was a grave mistake to let in so many people of totally different culture and religion and concepts because it creates a pressure group inside each country that does that.”

Americans have been shocked to see anti-Israel demonstrations in Britain, too — and to find college campuses in our country are deeply polarized by the bloodshed in the Middle East. . . . Read more about Liberals Must Choose Between Israel And Immigration

Photos, first shared with Breitbart News, show the pair of Honduran nationals accused of killing and planning to eat a Bald Eagle in Stanton County, Nebraska, as well as the rifle they allegedly used.

MIDTOWN, Manhattan (WABC) -- Workers at a hotel for migrants in Midtown Manhattan tell Eyewitness News every day they throw out large garbage bags of free, prepared food.

More and more countries are readjusting their asylum and immigration policies under the current onslaught of asylum seekers. Switzerland is now also pulling the emergency brake and does not want to take in any more “refugees”. A “temporary freeze on admissions”, it is said from Bern, is necessary because capacities are exhausted

.Specifically, this means that Switzerland is suspending its participation in the United Nations refugee program. After the arrival of thousands of refugees from Ukraine, the reception capacities are currently exhausted, said the spokesman for the State Secretariat for Migration, Lukas Rieder. The Swiss are now showing the stop sign to migrants from other countries. This also affects “refugees who are particularly in need of protection” selected by the UN. . . .

Migrants are entering El Paso, Texas, at a crushing rate of 2,500 a day, but Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas managed to miss them during his visit to the beleaguered border city this week. The surge of illegal aliens is spilling onto the streets of El Paso, taxing already strained social services. Frustrated city officials report that U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is releasing migrants into the community en masse.But    Mayorkas didn’t witness any of this for himself. In a tightly choreographed stop on Tuesday, the secretary met with Border Patrol agents at headquarters but did not tour any CBP processing centers, and he skirted around streets and alleys where migrants are dumped. . . .
