Illegal Immigrants From Haiti Being Released In U.S., Contrary To DHS Chief’s Deportation Claims

Lie after lie after lie.....The Biden Administration.

On Monday, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said that Haitian migrants who had been camping under a bridge in Del Rio, Texas, would be deported. On Wednesday, however, the Associated Press reported that U.S. officials were saying many of the migrants were being released into the U.S.

One U.S. official with direct knowledge of the situation but spoke on the condition of anonymity told the AP that Haitians have been released into the country on a “very, very large scale.” The officials suggested the number being released was in the thousands.

“Many have been released with notices to appear at an immigration office within 60 days, an outcome that requires less processing time from Border Patrol agents than ordering an appearance in immigration court and points to the speed at which authorities are moving, the official said,” the AP reported. “The Homeland Security Department has been busing Haitians from Del Rio to El Paso, Laredo and the Rio Grande Valley along the Texas border, and this week added flights to Tucson, Arizona, the official said. They are processed by the Border Patrol at those locations.”

Another U.S. official who also spoke on the condition of anonymity and has direct knowledge of the operations along the border told the AP that large numbers of the illegal immigrants from Haiti have been processed but not placed on flights back to Haiti, which began on Sunday. Both officials told the outlet that authorities had to use planes to move the immigrants when they couldn’t get enough transportation contractors to bus them to El Paso.

“The releases in the U.S. were occurring despite the signaling of a massive effort to expel Haitians on flights to Haiti under pandemic-related authority that denies migrants an opportunity to seek asylum. A third U.S. official not authorized to discuss operations said there were seven daily flights to Haiti planned starting Wednesday,” the AP reported.
