This administration’s goal has never been to fix the border crisis but to simply hide the evidence. To that end, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has tried to "legalize" illegal immigration by funneling migrants into unlawful release – or as they say in immigration law jargon, "parole" – programs it created, and we have no idea how many or what kind of people are entering the United States through this boondoggle. ...Earlier this year, the Biden administration created a program that allows migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to enter and remain in the United States legally for two years and receive nearly instant work authorization.
