So the Biden admin has awarded ICE $86 million to house about 1200 migrants in hotel rooms. If my math is correct, that's OVER 70k per migrant! But remember, Biden's $1400 stimulus checks were 'generous'.https://twitter.com/glennbeck/status/13 ... 1220895749

Terrible.
It goes to show that illegal immigration gets rewarded while legal immigration gets hosed.

Silly me. I thought the President of the United States was the President of the United States - not the President of Illegal Aliens. I thought he took an oath to uphold and support the Constitution of the United States, protecting it from all enemies, foreign and domestic - but Biden's oath is to non-American citizens, while forcing tax-paying American citizens to pay for his treasonous treachery.

Mexican officials admit Trump's immigration policies helped curb the overwhelming surge of migrants
Dismantling Trump's immigration policies have created a border crisis
PAUL SACCA
March 20, 2021
The Biden administration is searching for answers on how to handle the current border crisis, which has seen the highest number of illegal immigrants at the U.S. southern border in the last 20 years, according to Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and a senior official with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. President Joe Biden nullified many of former President Donald Trump's immigration policies, but Mexican officials say that the previous administration's tough stance on illegal immigration helped curb migrants from Central and South America from making the journey north.
The New York Times reported, "The Biden administration's appeal to do more against migration has put Mexico in a difficult position. While Mr. Trump strong-armed Mexico into militarizing the border, some Mexican officials argue that his harsh policies may have at times helped lessen their load by deterring migrants from attempting to make the journey north."
In two months, the Biden administration has dismantled numerous immigration policies and tools that Trump instituted.
On his first day in the White House, President Biden stopped all construction on the border wall.
On the campaign trail, Biden announced to the world that he would end deportations if he was elected, "In the first 100 days of my administration — no one — no one will be deported at all. From that point on, the only deportations that will take place are commissions of felonies in the United States of America."
Last week, New York Times reporters spoke to Gladys Oneida Pérez Cruz, a migrant woman who paid a coyote $9,000 to get her and her son to the United States. "Biden promised us that everything was going to change. He hasn't done it yet, but he is going to be a good president for migrants."
In January, migrant rights group Pueblo Sin Fronteras issued a statement on behalf of migrants traveling to the U.S. in a caravan, which demanded the Biden administration to "honor its commitments." "We recognize the importance of the incoming Government of the United States having shown a strong commitment to migrants and asylum seekers, which presents an opportunity for the governments of Mexico and Central America to develop policies and a migration management that respect and promote the human rights of the population in mobility," the statement read. "We will advocate that the Biden government honors its commitments."
Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador called Biden the "migrant president," adding that so many illegal immigrants "feel they're going to reach the United States,"
The current border crisis has overwhelmed migrant facilities — some up to 729% capacity. There are reports of children in facilities "akin to jails," forced to take turns sleeping on floors, and only allowed one shower per week.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) slammed the Biden administration over its handling of the massive surge, calling it an "abject failure." Abbott revealed that one migrant facility for minors had unsafe drinking water and another one had a COVID-19 outbreak.

Illegal immigrant from Mexico wanted for raping two young girls shot, killed by police in Texas
U.S. Marshals tracked down the previously deported suspect from Arkansas to Texas
PAUL SACCA
March 20, 2021
A previously deported illegal immigrant who was a wanted man for felony charges of rape involving two young children was reportedly shot and killed by police in Texas this week.
Juan Jimenez-Salas, 46, was accused of repeatedly molesting the two young daughters of his Arkansas girlfriend, authorities said. The father of the girls, both under the age of 10, informed authorities in November that he suspected that Jimenez-Salas was sexually abusing the girls, who are 6 years old and 8 years old. The young sisters allegedly told their father that while traveling with their mother they were raped at a hotel room in McKinney, Texas, Captain Scott Harwell with the El Dorado Police Department in Arkansas told KDFW-TV.
A U.S. Marshals task force got involved with the investigation of Jimenez-Salas, who was wanted on 11 felony charges, including five counts of rape and six counts of indecency with a child.
"Approximately 20 years ago, he was arrested on felony charges similar to that on what we have on him in this case now," Capt. Harwell said. "And he was deported back to Mexico."
On Friday, law enforcement used the GPS on the phone of Jimenez-Salas to track down the illegal alien from Mexico in Tarrant County, Texas. Capt. Harwell said, "We lucked up and had a phone number that we were able to track and in that lead gave us information tying us to Arlington, Texas."
Local police officers in Arlington who were assigned to the U.S. Marshals North Texas Fugitive Task Force conducted a traffic stop on Jimenez-Salas after he purportedly committed a traffic violation. Jimenez-Salas allegedly pointed a handgun at an Arlington police officer, who reacted by shooting and killing the armed man.

Top photojournalist blasts Biden admin for blocking media from documenting border crisis: 'Zero access'
'Until now, US photojournalists haven't needed to stand in another country to photograph what's happening — in the United States'
CHRIS ENLOE
March 21, 2021
A prominent photojournalist rebuked the Biden administration last week for allegedly blocking media from observing operations of immigration officials handling the migrant crisis at the southern United States border.
John Moore, an award-winning photojournalist for Getty Images, blasted Biden administration officials for obstructing media access.
In fact, the lack of transparency is so bad that Moore said he was forced to do his job — document the border crisis through the medium of photography — by working from the Mexican side of the U.S.-Mexico border.
Moore said that officials in the previous three presidential administrations did not block journalists from documenting immigration operations.
"I respectfully ask US Customs and Border Protection to stop blocking media access to their border operations. I have photographed CBP under Bush, Obama and Trump but now — zero access is granted to media," Moore said. "These long lens images taken from the Mexican side."
Moore later added, "The photographs in this tweet string were taken with a telephoto lens from across the border in Mexico. Until now, US photojournalists haven't needed to stand in another country to photograph what's happening - in the United States."
In fact, Moore said that federal authorities are even removing journalists from areas where migrants are entering.
"The vast majority of river crossings by asylum seekers happen on federal land in south Texas' Rio Grande Valley. The federal govt. controls access to those areas. The Border Patrol has been removing journalists who enter, including recently myself, CBS, others," Moore explained.
Moore went on to say:
There's no modern precedent for a full physical ban on media access to CBP border operations. To those who might say, cut them some slack - they are dealing with a situation, I'd say that showing the US response to the current immigrant surge is exactly the media's role. Photographing Border Patrol agents and immigrant encounters can and has been done respectfully without interfering with operations. Regardless, @cbp public affairs exists to work with media.
And Pandemic restrictions are not a valid excuse to block physical media access, especially to operations that are outside. There are easy alternative options to media ride-alongs. Showing the difficult and important work of @cbp agents in the field, while also photographing immigrants in a dignified way are not mutually exclusive endeavors. Transparency is key, even in a politicized environment.
As TheBlaze reported, the Biden administration has enacted an unofficial "gag order" restricting officials and immigration agents from sharing details about the ongoing border crisis.
The Biden administration has also closed media access to detention facilities housing migrant children, a move that some Democratic lawmakers support.

Migrant admits he came to US because of Biden, 'definitely' would not have if Trump were president
'The same environment that's been going on today wasn't there last year'
CHRIS ENLOE
March 21, 2021
A migrant who is seeking asylum in the United States admitted in an interview that aired Sunday that he would not have attempted to travel to the U.S. if Donald Trump were still president.
In fact, the migrant said specifically that he decided now was the right time to seek asylum here because of President Joe Biden.
[And he should go into the White House, take all the food he wants, take all the clothes he wants, etc. and Biden and his wifey should be more than happy to oblige.]
ABC News anchor Martha Raddatz recently spoke with a Brazilian man — just one of the tens of thousands of migrants who are traveling to the U.S. in search of asylum [free stuff] — who admitted that Biden's presidency was a motivating factor for coming to America.
"Would you have tried to do this when Donald Trump was president?" Raddatz asked.
"Definitely not. Definitely. We have a chance, you know. The same environment that's been going on today wasn't there last year," the man responded. "We used to watch the news and I definitely wouldn't do this."
Raddatz followed up," So did you come here because Joe Biden was elected president?"
"Basically, basically," the man said.
Biden campaigned on promises to reverse many of Trump's deterrent immigration policies. After Biden won the election, migrants said they expected the Biden administration to "honor its commitments."
Thus far, Biden has made good on his promises. For example, Biden repealed Trump's "remain in Mexico" policy that forced asylum-seekers to remain in Mexico while their asylum requests are processed by U.S. immigration courts.
Now, because migrant processing infrastructure is being overwhelmed by asylum-seekers, some migrants are reportedly being released from custody without necessary court information.
Still, despite the magnifying crisis, Biden administration officials are blaming Trump.
"As we were coming into the administration, we knew we were inheriting an absolute mess from the previous administration — that there were aspects of our legal immigration system that had been gutted and a department that lacked the personnel to administer our laws,"
Julie Chavez Rodriguez, director of the White House's office of intergovernmental affairs, told CNN. [Like these people give a rat's anus about "our laws".]
However, Texas Democrats like Rep. Henry Cuellar, who represent districts along the U.S.-Mexico border, believe Biden's immigration policies are contributing to the crisis. [Ya think??]
"You just can't say, 'Yeah, yeah, let everybody in' — because then we're affected down there at the border," Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-Texas) said recently. "The bad guys know how to market this." [Understatement of the century.]

Biden administration spending $86 million in taxpayer money to house migrants in hotels: report
PAUL SACCA
March 20, 2021
With migrant facilities being overwhelming by the massive surge of migrants, the Biden administration's solution to the border crisis is to house migrants in hotels, but it will come at a hefty cost to the American taxpayer.
The Biden administration has awarded an $86 million contract to pay for hotel rooms to accommodate 1,200 migrant family members who cross the U.S.-Mexico border, Department of Homeland Security officials informed Axios. The hotel rooms in border states such as Texas and Arizona will originally lodge migrants for six months, but "could be extended and expanded."
Migrant families attempting to cross the U.S. southern border spiked massively in 2021, rising from over 7,000 in January to more than 19,000 in February, according to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas admitted this week that the U.S. government is "on pace to encounter more individuals on the southwest border than we have in the last 20 years," a statement that was echoed by a senior official with Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Also on Saturday, the Department of Health and Human Services announced that it is opening another facility to house unaccompanied child migrants. The new facility in Pecos, Texas, will provide housing for at least 500 unaccompanied minors to begin with, but will expand to 2,000 children, according to Fox News.
The Biden administration will reportedly send as many as 3,000 unaccompanied migrant teens aged 15-17 to the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center in Dallas, Texas, for up to three months.
Earlier this month, a report found that one migrant facility was at 729% capacity, and there were allegedly children taking turns sleeping on floors and only allowed weekly showers.
On Friday, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott lashed out at the Biden administration's handling of the immigration crisis at the border. He slammed President Joe Biden for allowing a minor migrant facility to open despite having "unsafe water" and another facility with a COVID-19 outbreak.
"The Biden Administration has been an abject failure when it comes to ensuring the safety of unaccompanied minors who cross our border," Abbott said in a statement. "The conditions unaccompanied minors face in these federally run facilities is unacceptable and inhumane."
"The Biden Administration has no excuse for subjecting these children to these kinds of conditions," Abbott decalred. "President Biden's refusal to address the border crisis is not only enabling criminal actors like human traffickers and smugglers, but it is exposing innocent unaccompanied children to illness and potentially unsafe living conditions. The administration must act now to keep these children safe, secure our border, and end this humanitarian crisis."
"The Biden Admin. has turned a humanitarian crisis into a complete disaster," Abbott wrote on Twitter. "They were unprepared for open border policies."
There were a record-high number of unaccompanied minors crossing the southern border in February.

New photos show 'terrible conditions' inside border facility as hundreds of migrant children are packed into small makeshift rooms
PHIL SHIVER
March 22, 2021
New photos inside one of the Biden administration's surge facilities at the U.S.-Mexico border show the awful conditions under which migrant children are being kept amid the ongoing illegal immigration crisis.
The photos, shared with Axios by Democratic Rep. Henry Cuellar (Texas), were taken inside a U.S. Customs and Border Protection temporary surge facility in Donna, Texas, and show hundreds of children packed into tiny, makeshift rooms as they await transfer to longer-term facilities operated by the Department of Health and Humans Services. Conditions inside such facilities have previously been described as "grim," cage-like, and "akin to jails."
Due to the rapid influx of migrants and the unpreparedness of the administration, many of the migrant children are being kept in surge facilities for longer than is legally permitted.
The photos provide a rare look inside the facilities, as the Biden administration has to this point blocked access to media organizations and placed an unofficial "gag order" on Border Patrol agents, restricting their ability to share information with journalists.
Axios reported that each of the eight "pods" inside the so-called "soft-sided facility" has a maximum occupancy of 260 people. But Cuellar told the outlet that as of Sunday, one of the pods contained more than 400 unaccompanied male minors.
The Democratic lawmaker described the setting as "terrible conditions for the children." He added that Border Patrol agents are "doing the best they can under the circumstances" but are "not equipped to care for kids" and "need help from the administration."
"We have to stop kids and families from making the dangerous trek across Mexico to come to the United States," he continued. "We have to work with Mexico and Central American countries to have them apply for asylum in their countries."
The lawmaker has been outspoken about the ongoing crisis since the start of Biden's presidency. He warned earlier this month that the new administration's open-borders policies would ultimately lead to dangerous consequences for both migrants and American communities along the southern border.

Millions of illegal immigrants residing in the United States are set to receive $1,400 stimulus checks as part of Biden's coronavirus relief package, according to a new report published this week by the Center for Immigration Studies.
In the report released Monday, the think tank determined that as much as $4.38 billion will be doled out to individuals illegally residing in the country as a part of the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 due to certain immigrants' possession of Social Security numbers.
During debate over the legislation, Republican Sen. Ted Cruz (Texas) took issue with that part of the bill's language that he argued would result in payments to illegal aliens. He introduced an amendment to stop that from taking place, but the measure was quickly rejected by the Democratic majority.
At the time, Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin (Ill.) claimed that "undocumented immigrants do not have Social Security numbers, and they do not qualify for stimulus relief checks, period."
But CIS Director of Research Steven Camarota responded to Durbin's claim in the report, stating, "This is incorrect; we estimate that there are 2.65 million illegal immigrants who have Social Security numbers
that allow them to receive stimulus checks."

Re: If my math is correct, that's OVER 70k per migrant! Glenn Beck
Glenn did say something was made of Macaroni during the few minutes that I was able to listen to his show this morning. It was during his last hour.
Weird timing as per DABs first apostolic address.
Almost sounded like he may have read that Moroni’s trumpet was made of macaroni.
