"It is simply unbelievable that the Biden Administration will allow Covid-positive illegal aliens to surge across the border but will terminate dedicated law-enforcement officers"
Republicans have warned that according to an insider at the Department of Homeland Security, the agency’s head Alejandro Mayorkas plans to FIRE border agents who are unvaccinated.
The whistleblower claims that the DHS will off a significant potion of the border workforce if they do not comply with the vaccine mandate and get the shots before November.
"Whistleblower alleges that Border Patrol agents have been given official notice that they must be fully vaccinated by November 2021 or face termination."
The ranking Member on the House Judiciary Committee, Rep. Jim Jordan wrote to Mayorkas asking for an explanation.
“While our border is facing this serious crisis, we have learned that you are threatening to terminate a significant portion of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) workforce,” Jordan wrote.
Jordan added “On September 9, 2021, President Biden issued Executive Order 14043 requiring federal employees to fully vaccinate against Covid-19 or face termination of their employment.”
“It has come to our attention that the men and women of CBP have been given official notice that they must be fully vaccinated by November 2021 or face termination,” Jordan further stated, urging that “It is simply unbelievable that the Biden Administration will allow Covid-positive illegal aliens to surge across the border but will terminate dedicated law-enforcement officers who do not comply with Biden’s mandate.”
The development comes after Mayorkas declared that the flood of illegal migrants at the border, and the subsequent release of thousands of them into the U.S. is “one of our proudest traditions.”
Fox News host Chris Wallace asked why the Biden administration hasn’t erected a “wall or a fence” in response to the crisis.
Mayorkas responded “It is the policy of this administration: we do not agree with the building of the wall.”
When asked exactly how many migrants have come into the U.S. from the latest wave, Mayorkas said “I think it’s about ten thousand or so, twelve thousand,” adding “It could be even higher. The number that are returned could be even higher. What we do is we follow the law as Congress has passed it.”
Wallace also noted that almost half of the migrants are never seen again, failing to appear at asylum court hearings.
“There are more than 11 million people in this country illegally. Clearly, despite your best efforts, millions of people end up in this country and don’t – just disappear,” Wallace noted.
The media has been using that 11 million number for over 30 years. It’s way more than that.
The Department of Deep Swamp Security DDSS strikes again.
And replace them with newly sworn in Hatians?
There ya go.
Zippitydoodah... Yet another GOP “strongly-worded letter”...
And thousands of unvaxed illegals are crossing the border each week.
Just picking off groups one at a time. At an accelerated rate. All predicted a long time ago, but ignored as not being possible.
Yeah. Send more letters. Ooh.
Yet the white house staff, congress + staff, CDC and other are NOT REQUIRED to get the vax.
They should apply for DPS jobs in Texas, Florida, and Arizona.
yet another whining clown screaming at the GOP rather then ever fighting the Democrats on anything
You clowns are the Democrat Party’s best propaganda bots
Learn how your own government works finally you pathetic idiots.
The GOP is the minority party. Other then raising attention they can do NOTHING
You all wanted to punish the GOP for not being ivory soap pure dogmatically, don’t sit there whining now that you got your wish
Problem is that after 911 there was a mass hiring of border patrol agents, that was 20 years ago. That means a lot of agents are close to retirement and nobody wants to change jobs if they are within a few years of retirement.
Let there be NO DOUBT. This has nothing to do with health but is a way to PURGE small government types out. Typically those who think for themselves will opt to not get vaccinated.
OK, what is the GOP position about COVID vaccination?
Is this just gotcha for gotcha's sake, or are they actually taking a position?
With all the nasty diseases coming across the border, I would be surprised if most agents who deal directly with the invaders have not already caught COVID, smallpox, measles or TB.
Stripping down hospitals and border patrol, military so they can then beg the UN to invade the US to ‘help us’. Good thing China has the most military available to ‘help’ the UN ‘help’ the US. Biden doesn’t have an army he trusts -he wants foreign troops to treat Americans in ways most police, military and medical staff would hesitate to do.
Definitely the true American Loving Patriot tipping point. If it doesn’t come sooner.
The unvaxxed will be treated the same way Trump supporters at the Crapitol on January 6th are being treated.
Anyone who doesn't see this coming hasn't been paying close enough attention to what has transpired up to this point.
Frogs placed into water set to boil, and it's WAY past time to have jumped out!
