The Transportation Security Administration has acknowledged it has allowed illegal immigrants to present arrest warrants as identification to get on airplanes, but defended it as a longstanding practice.
When illegal immigrants and other non-citizens and non-U.S. nationals "Do not otherwise have acceptable forms of ID for presentation at security checkpoints, TSA may also accept certain DHS-issued forms, including ICE Form I-200," a TSA spokesperson confirmed to The Epoch Times in an email.
After being presented with a DHS form, the TSA says agents confirm the identity of each individual by verifying information found on the forms using data from Customs and Border Protection, another DHS agency.
The TSA spokesperson defended the policy, noting that it's been in place since shortly after TSA was created in 2001, in the wake of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
"President [Joe] Biden is putting millions of Americans at risk by allowing known criminals and potential terrorists to fly on U.S. airlines. A criminal alien shouldn't be allowed to board a plane after presenting a warrant for their arrest. They should be detained and brought before a judge," Gooden, who said he went to the U.S.-Mexico border and witnessed illegal immigrants boarding planes without proper identification, said on "Fox & Friends" this week.
"In no way, shape, or form would an American citizen be allowed to board a U.S. flight simply by flashing an arrest warrant. If anything, that would cause immediate concern for law enforcement officials. This unconscionable move by the Biden administration aids and abets criminal behavior. Rather than facilitate illegal immigration deep into the interior, the administration should look to deter it as more than 2 million individuals attempted to enter the country unlawfully during its first year in office-an all-time record," he added.
The agency is continuing to allow illegal immigrants to present I-200 forms.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
