Biden Administration Seeks to Illegally Hide Its Incompetence at the Border

Because the Biden administration ended Trump-era policies that successfully deterred illegal entries, the number of migrants apprehended at the Southwest border has soared, and now exceeds DHS's detention capacity.

In failing to request more detention space or instead adopt its own policies to deter illegal migration, the administration has acted incompetently, and now seeks to compensate for its incompetence by expanding its power to parole aliens far beyond the limits set by Congress in the INA. DHS has apparently apprehended so many aliens who pose a threat to the national security and public safety that it now must prioritize which ones to detain.

Sadly, I must conclude that this policy is an attempt to hide the Biden administration's incompetence in failing to secure the border - though some may take an even dimmer view.

Respectfully, if DHS has apprehended so many aliens at the border that their detention is "Unavailable or impracticable", the administration needs to do two things: Find more detention space and/or change its border policies to dissuade aliens from coming to the United States to begin with.

If the Biden administration has decided to start detaining aliens with highly contagious diseases, it's high time, because as I explained in an August 14 post, the CDC has admitted that CBP has been releasing aliens without testing them for Covid-19.

Because the Biden administration ended Trump-era policies that successfully deterred illegal entries, the number of migrants apprehended at the Southwest border has soared and exceeds DHS's detention capacity, which the president now wants to cut.

In failing to request more detention space or instead adopt policies to deter illegal migration, the administration has acted incompetently, and now seeks to compensate for its incompetence by expanding its power to parole aliens far beyond the limits set by Congress in the INA..
