Biden priority: Keeping photos of migrant overcrowding in detention out of the news -Report
American Thinker ^ | May 12, 2023 | By Monica Showalter

As Joe Biden's weakly enforced Title 42 expires and illegal border crossers can no longer be expelled from the U.S. based on pandemic considerations, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas had a tough, scary, message for potential migrants:

"I want to be very clear: our borders are not open. People who cross our border unlawfully and without a legal basis to remain will be promptly processed and removed," Mayorkas said.

Which is laughable. He's made that tough, scary warning many times before, and well, here we are.

According to Fox News. here's the real priority:

Sources tell Fox News that the priority right now for Border Patrol is avoiding images of overcrowding and processing migrants as fast as possible. Authorities earlier this week greenlighted "safe" mass street releases if CBP and non-governmental organization (NGO) partners cannot hold them. It means that the largest wave of mass releases in history has already begun and will continue in the coming days.

Which tells illegal migrants what Mayorkas means when he says not to cross the border. It's not about the importance of obeying the law. It's about avoiding news photos of too many migrants crossing the border which would bring bad publicity to him and his policies. What a message to send to illegal border crossers.

Migrants already know that if they turn themselves into the Border Patrol, they'll more likely be mass-released into the country without so much as a court date for their inevitably spurious claims to asylum. Title 42 resulted in the expulsion of only 19% of them, meaning, the rest had an 81% chance of getting in. Now with Title 8, the result will be the same and if there are a lot of them coming, they will simply be released --

Pretty soon you won’t need cameras on site at the border. They’ll have made their way to points north and will be squatting in your local neighborhood and city streets, all over the country.

What this adm. is doing, is in NO WAY defensible…PERIOD!! That's why they want the visuals minimized ... so the ghastly enormity of this thing remains a blur.

Half of them will end up here in Atlanta again. I think they are all being given cell phones so hopefully can be tracked and rounded up later once Trump is back.

They need to send this entire hundred of thousands freeloading thieves pouring the border straight to New Yawk and Camela Harris’ house. Then, DEFUND THE MILITARY. They couldn’t stop a foreign invasion across our southern border. What good are they. We’ve already got one Jop Corp.

I was checking out the pricing of a Motel 6 in Dallas a few years ago.

No rooms were available.

At this point, there is no reason to believe anything said by Mayorkis. He is a complete tool of the state and enemy of citizens.
