Which “Refugees” Are We Welcoming?
By Nayla Rush
National Interest, May 26, 2023
Excerpt: The Welcome Corps, a new program introduced by the Biden administration in January 2023, hands over the control of part of the resettlement process to refugee advocates in the United States (whether private individuals or organizations) and allows them to select their own refugees and future American citizens. Per U.S. immigration law, resettled refugees are required to apply for a green card one year after arrival and can apply for citizenship four years later (not five, as the five-year count for refugees starts on the day of arrival).
Biden hides the truth at the border — he’s letting in thousands
By Mark Krikorian
New York Post, May 31, 2023
Excerpt: But as in so many other areas of government policy, Biden’s Department of Homeland Security is set on brazenly violating the immigration law and the Constitution until somebody stops it.
AMLO and Biden: Agents of Immigration Chaos
By Phillip Linderman
American Conservative, May 26, 2023
Excerpt: As Biden’s initiative played out over months, President Lopez Obrador, for once, issued no protest, apparently as oblivious as his American counterpart to the looming unintended consequences. Blinded by his own open-border ideology, the stubborn AMLO seems never to have analyzed the impact of Washington’s unilateral migrant policies on Mexico’s national sovereignty. Much more subtle than previous Yanqui strong-arm tactics, President Biden was nevertheless blithely unleashing powerful outside forces that would trample Mexico.
Thousands of Chinese spy balloons are hovering over American universities
By George Fishman
Washington Examiner, June 1, 2023
Excerpt: With Biden taking focused law enforcement off the table, we need at least to consider barring the entry of all students from the PRC, or at least those studying in STEM and other fields with military applications. While not every such student will engage in espionage while on our campuses, a sufficiently large number will that a blanket ban may be the only effective option.
The Other Half of Our Immigration Crisis: Visa abuse, which begins as legal entry, doesn’t get nearly as much attention as illegal border crossings
By Dave Seminara
City Journal, May 30, 2023
Excerpt: Foreigners can arrive here on tourist visas and then legally adjust their visa status if they marry an American. It’s also legal for foreign “tourists” to come here and interview for jobs. If they find one, their employer can file an adjustment-of-visa-status request for them. The bottom line is that the U.S. is likely the only Western country where one can arrive as a tourist and never go home—all legally.
Migrant Interviews Debunk Biden DHS’s False Talking Point About Cartel ‘Disinformation’
By Todd Bensman
The Federalist, May 26, 2023
Excerpt: As someone who has interviewed thousands of U.S.-bound immigrants over the last several years, I can confidently attest that this narrative is a fabrication. It is pure political misdirection, deflecting blame away from Biden administration policies, which immigrants most commonly cite for why they come.
