    Alejandro Mayorkas, once celebrated as the first Latino and immigrant to lead Homeland Security, now stands as one of the most controversial figures in modern American politics. Under his watch, the southern border descended into chaos. Millions of illegal border crossings. Missing migrant children. Fentanyl flooding in. And repeated accusations of perjury before Congress. So why was he never held accountable? In this episode, we uncover the shocking truth about Mayorkas, his role in dismantling border security, and why the Senate refused to act—even after he was impeached. Written and hosted by Colin D. Heaton. Forgotten History is a 10th...

    Alejandro Mayorkas, the nation’s top border official from 2021 to 2025, is denying blame for President Donald Trump’s smashing victory in 2024, which has scattered and impoverished the Democratic Party’s many interest groups. Instead, Mayorkas is blaming Texas GOP Gov. Greg Abbott and the upstart new media that he could not control as he gambled the party’s future by importing more than 10 million migrants for use by businesses and progressives.

    The Trump Administration is revoking temporary protected status for over 60,000 Venezuelan migrants, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced Wednesday morning. The newly confirmed DHS secretary slammed her predecessor Alejandro Mayorkas for tying the Trump Administration’s hands and signing an order giving Venezuelan migrants temporary protected status so they could “stay here and violate the laws” for another 18 months.

    Harris Faulkner of FOX news states that 75,000 to 80,000 "missing" children have been found in the first four days of the Trump Administration. Mayorkas testified to Congress that he didn't know where they were but he would look into it. Faulkner said she can't believe they impeached him but didn't remove him.

    President Donald Trump has fired TSA chief David Pekoske.. TSA has also become politicized. TSA added hundreds of conservative Americans to a terror watchlist.. Tulsi Gabbard was also added to that same list after criticizing the Biden regime. I’m currently suing TSA over the documents related to these stories. TSA has been aggressively fighting me. This is a great move by President Trump. ... Shake ups at the DOJ underway too. ... End the TSA. Immediately. Dismantle it. Throw it on the pile with the DHS. ... Mayorkas, who interestingly didn't get a pardon, was behind the corruption at TSA....

    Now, this is interesting: there is no word that Alejandro Mayorkas or Merrick Garland were granted preemptive pardons. No doubt Garland has some vulnerabilities, but I doubt that he would be high on the list of people who would be targeted for investigations. And as a high-powered lawyer who just ran the Justice Department that would prosecute him, he would likely be treated with kid gloves. ... But Mayorkas? That man has skeletons and even still-rotting bodies in his closet, and as far as I can tell, Biden has given him no legal cover. He has committed perjury many times...

    During an interview with “PBS NewsHour” on Tuesday, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas defended President Joe Biden waiting to take executive action on the border in light of criticism from Deputy Director and Senior Official Performing the Duties of the Director of ICE P.J. Lechleitner by stating that if Biden had acted earlier, “it would be litigated earlier and the outcome is still uncertain.” Co-host Amna Nawaz asked, “President Biden also didn’t take new executive action until June of last year, and that action has now resulted in, what? A 60% drop in encounters at the U.S. southern border. I’m...

    During portions of an interview with NPR aired on Monday’s broadcast of “Morning Edition,” Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas stated that the border is more secure than it was at the end of the last year before the pandemic, but the Biden administration didn’t succeed “in communicating to the American people successfully the challenges of migration at a historic level since World War II.” Mayorkas said, “The border right now is more secure than it was at the end of 2019, the last year before the pandemic struck.” And that the number of people crossing the border has been lower...

    The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) under Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is reportedly attempting to kill the Laken Riley Act, a bill that requires the DHS to take illegal aliens who have been charged, arrested, or convicted for crimes such as theft, larceny, burglary or shoplifting into custody. Pablo Manriquez, a news reporter, wrote in a post on X that “sources at DHS” were informing him that the cost of the Laken Riley Act was estimated to be between $20-$30 billion. Manriquez added that the DHS sources had cited “a $7 billion figure just for beds BEFORE the mandate’s costs on...

    In a move that has many critics up in arms, Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas has granted amnesty to 850,000 illegal immigrants, further exacerbating concerns about the Biden administration’s border policies. With just days away from being outgoing President Joe Biden’s last week in office, critics argue that this decision, which effectively shields hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens from deportation, signals an alarming disregard for the rule of law and sets a dangerous precedent for future immigration enforcement. With the U.S. southern border already overwhelmed by record numbers of illegal crossings, conservatives contend that this blanket amnesty acts...

    President Joe Biden’s pro-migration border chief has extended temporary amnesty for 850,000 illegal and quasi-legal economic migrants until 2026, further suppressing American wages and spiking their rents. The 18-month expansion of the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) amnesty was announced by outgoing border chief, Alejandro Mayorkas. The beneficiaries include 234,000 illegal migrants from El Salvador who first got their TPS status after a 2001 earthquake that wrecked their home nation’s economy. The small nation’s economy is now growing amid the successful suppression of gang crime by the nation’s popular President, Nayib Bukele. So Mayorkas’s press statement blamed bad weather for his...

    Outgoing Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that there had been a “significant increase” in the past 10 years of homegrown violent extremism. Mayorkas said, “We have a heightened threat environment, as Director Wray and the attorney general both articulated, and we’ve been saying this for quite a number of months. We have not only the persistent threat of foreign terrorism that, of course, created the Department of Homeland Security, but we have adverse nation-states, and for the past 10 years, we’ve seen a significant increase in what we term homegrown violent extremism. It is...

    A new report released by the Committee on House Administration Subcommittee on Oversight into the January 6 pipe bomber shows the FBI stopped looking for the suspect in 2021 and covered up evidence. The FBI is now refusing to cooperate with Congressional investigators. In September, former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino said according to a whistleblower, after the pipe bombs were found at the RNC and DNC headquarters, “assets on the ground, including a whistleblower, was briefed about the pipe bombs the next day and show a picture of a guy in a hoodie.” However, according to the whistleblower, the...

    SALT LAKE CITY — The second of two special agents with the Department of Homeland Security in Utah tasked with fighting the war on drugs has been charged in federal court with putting drugs right back on the street by selling drugs to dealers. Felony information was filed Monday against Nicholas Kindle, accusing him of conspiracy to convert property of the U.S. government and conspiracy to distribute drugs. In December, a 27-page criminal complaint was unsealed against David Cole, 50, of South Jordan, for conspiracy to distribute and possess drugs with intent to distribute. The federal complaint also listed an...

    The 8,000 mysterious drones that have been reported in various locations around the country have generated anxiety and fear among the population. Some are demanding action be taken to neutralize the "threat." Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas said "we can't shoot them down because they are operating legally and lawfully. I have been informed that China paid Hunter Biden a $5 million fee for a 90-day permit to fly these information gathering aerial devices wherever they please in our country." "I am also disconcerted that US military bases are included in the agreement between the President's...

    Alejandro Mayorkas has said a new Federal Aviation Administration rule may be behind the deluge of drone sightings across New Jersey and the East Coast. The outgoing DHS secretary finally addressed the issue with the press on Sunday, confirming that they could not physically shoot down the drones but that technology to assist in detecting them is on its way. He gave some clarification, however, as to why all of this seemed to be happening all of a sudden. 'In September of 2023, the Federal Aviation Administration, the FAA, changed the rules so that drones could fly at night,' Mayorkas...

    Shoot to kill. A growing chorus of local officials in New Jersey and New York are demanding the feds stop gaslighting locals and finally shoot down a drone. Rep. Chris Smith (R-NJ) demanded Saturday the Pentagon open fire on one of the nearly 1,000 drones that’ve been spotted above the Garden State since Nov. 18, so answers can be had. “Why can’t we bag at least one drone and get to the bottom of this?” Smith wondered aloud during a press conference in Seaside Heights. “Why can’t we even track a suspect drone to its origin? Have we so little...

    Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on Friday said the government doesn't have the authority to shoot down drones and believes reports of some sightings are cases of mistaken identity. Mayorkas appeared on CNN when he was asked about why the federal government doesn't take down one of the many drones that have been spotted across multiple states in recent weeks. “Our authorities are very limited,” Mayorkas told CNN host Wolf Blitzer, citing missions involving unmanned aircraft conducted by various federal agencies. "We have various authorities that are discreet to their particular missions. We can't just shoot a drone out of...

    Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas downplayed the wave of drone sightings in the tri-state area and emphatically argued the feds can’t just “shoot” them down amid calls by some lawmakers to do just that. Mayorkas, appearing on CNN Friday night, insisted many people are simply seeing drones that can be purchased at “convenience stores” and most instances are “cases of mistaken identity.” The Homeland honcho insisted to CNN host Wolf Blizter that his agency has seen no evidence of anomalous activity.
