Secret Documents Reveal Biden's Border Crisis Was An Intentional Policy

As President Joe Biden’s immigration crisis overwhelms the United States and wreaks havoc on the state’s resources, confidential documents suggest the president’s open border policies were intentional.

The Immigration Reform Law Institute (IRLI) filed a lawsuit against Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS), claiming the agency halted the 287(g) program, which assists in the deportation of illegal migrant child rapists, attempted murderers, assailants, carjackers, and other known criminals.

In August 2023, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) revealed that the government ended the program in January 2021— right after Biden entered office. However, the compromised agency gave no reason why the government did that.

The 287(g) program allows local law enforcement agencies to work closely with ICE to capture illegal aliens who have committed crimes. They were then able to turn the migrants over to federal officials for arrest and deportation.

“It is ironic that the Biden administration insists it is ‘the most transparent in history’ when, in reality, it has repeatedly attempted to change immigration laws without congressional authorization and then tried to hide the evidence of its misdeeds from the American public,” IRLI Director of Investigations Matt O’Brien said.

Flash forward to September 2023, the IRLI filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to ICE, requesting to obtain internal documents regarding the agency’s suspension of the 287(g) program. However, the government did not comply with a rule that they must reply within 20 days. ICE authorities have yet to respond.

“Increased cooperation between ICE and local law enforcement is critical and makes our communities safer, so of course, this administration wants to limit that effort,” IRLI Executive Director Dale Wilcox said in a statement. “There is no benefit to this country or its legal residents by keeping criminal aliens in the country, yet it appears to be a priority of this White House. The American people own those emails, yet we are not allowed to see them because it might embarrass this administration and expose their extremist agenda.”

Twenty-three agreements between local law enforcement and ICE were set to go into effect before Biden suspended the program. However, they were canceled after the president took office. Currently, ICE has 287(g) relationships with nearly 140 law enforcement organizations nationwide.

It’s also for flooding districts for redistricting to get more Reps for D’s in state and House.

I think they are importing a 5th column of special forces operators who will eventually sabotage our infrastructure. This will be used to justify martial law allowing them to confiscate weapons. These guys are embedded in the massive flow that is being allowed to cross unfettered and remain mostly undetected. In the mean time, this tidal wave creates confusion and conflict, draws down and diverts resources and impacts our readiness, as does killing off hundreds of thousands of fighting age men by drug overdose. This also enriches the cartels, who now have the resources to field their own armies which can be used as mercenary forces.

That is a valid argument. There are several similar variations possible with our two posts, but that captures the flavor of it.

The bottom line at this point is that there is nothing of benefit to the U.S. with the Obama-Biden border policy, while at the same time it presents the possibility of serious harm and is an enormous "tell". As in wake the hell up, America.

“wake the hell up, America.”

Exactly. All the crap that is coming down, immigration, gun control, covid, fentanyl, social chaos of all kinds, the demise of education, even tic-toc, these thing are not just individual issues. They are linked, and we can only speculate what the real end game is.

Rush made a similar argument. The dims want a permanent underclass that will always be dependent on the dims for their survival. The dims want the electoral situation where they don’t have to go out and campaign among the unwashed populace. They just have to make a few speeches for the media and their dependents will all vote for them. And stay in power forever.
