Illegal Immigration to Europe Surges 541% via West African Route.

The European Border and Coast Guard Agency, Frontex, reports illegal immigration into Europe via the so-called West African route has surged by 541 percent over the last two months. This surge represents the highest count for the period since Frontex began collecting data in 2011.

Human trafficking outfits in Mauritania — infamous for not having criminalized slavery until 2007 and for allowing it to persist at scale outside the law — have been reportedly pushing sub-Saharan migrants through the country to the Canary Islands.

The Canaries, off the coast of West Africa, belong to Spain and therefore qualify as European Union (EU) soil. Migrants are reaching the islands in makeshift boats, known locally as “cayuco” boats, with many drowning due to their unseaworthiness.

The Eastern Mediterranean illegal immigration route from Turkey to Greece, meanwhile, saw a 117 percent increase in arrivals, while the Western Mediterranean route from North Africa to mainland Spain saw a 48 percent increase.

The Central Mediterranean route from North Africa to Italy has bucked the trend with a 70 percent drop, although this follows earlier record increases under Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.

However, Frontex does not appear particularly interested in helping EU governments protect their borders, with agency head Hans Leijtens urging governments to abandon the “narrative” of “stopping people” in January.

“Nothing can stop people from crossing a border, no wall, no fence, no sea, no river,” he claimed.

People-Smuggler Transported Migrants Into U.S. Through Sewer Pipes.

People-smuggler Kevin Noe Campos Villa has confessed to sending seven illegal aliens into the United States from Mexico via sewer pipes.

The 20-year-old Tijuana, Mexico native entered a guilty plea in federal court for his “services,” for which he charged $6,000.

Border Patrol agents intercepted Campos Villa and three migrants near the San Ysidro Port of Entry in January 2022, two miles from their subterranean crossing point. Court records reveal two of the migrants voiced fear for their lives during the dangerous crossing, lacking the swimming skills necessary to navigate the river’s currents.

Drownings account for the majority of migrant deaths worldwide.

The maze of underground sewer pipes that spans the U.S.-Mexico border is supposed to be closed off with grates to deter smugglers like Campos Villa. They are occasionally opened following heavy rainfalls to improve water flow, however.

“This is an important reminder that safety is of little concern to transnational criminal organizations,” warned Chief Patrol Agent Patricia McGurk-Daniel following the conviction.

DATA: Illegal Crossings Surge Unabated In 2024.

U.S. border control is facing increasing challenges under the Biden government as the number of illegal immigrants crossing the border continues to surge. At the start of the 2024 fiscal year, crossings soared to 988,900 individuals between October and December. The record start to the year follows an already record 2.4 million illegal immigrant encounters at the southern border in fiscal year 2023. The number of encounters has drastically increased from approximately 1.7 million in 2021.

Data released by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) reveals a significant increase in the annualized rate of illegal immigrant arrests compared to numbers from February 2023 and 2022. The most recent reports disclose 5,616 arrests, exceeding 3,030 arrests and 2,424 arrests recorded in February 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Ira Mehlman, spokesperson for the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), argues that undocumented citizens face higher crime rates due to the absence of a rigorous vetting process. “All of these things result in people losing their lives because the government isn’t doing its job,” Mehlman told Newsweek in a recent interview, adding: “Sanctuary policies are compounding the danger of being presented. If they were properly implemented, Laken Riley would still be alive today.”

Republican lawmakers at the state and federal levels are pushing to allow local law enforcement to detain and arrest illegal immigrants when encountered. Additionally, some states, like Texas, are even attempting to enact their own deportation process for illegals caught in their jurisdiction.

The Supreme Court recently ruled 6-3 to temporarily allow Texas state officers to arrest, detain, and remove individuals presumed to be in the US illegally — pending a final judgment later this year. However, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals was allowed to issue a new order staying the Texas law.

WATCH: Drone Footage Exposes 2000+ Illegal Migrant Tent City in America.

Officials in New York City have been keeping a massive tent shelter for illegals in Brooklyn shielded from the public. However, new details emerged regarding the facility, which is believed to house upwards of 2,000 illegal immigrants. Drone footage taken by citizen journalists has revealed the shocking extent of the tent facility.

The sprawling tent complex is located at Floyd Bennett Field, situated in the Marine Park neighborhood of Brooklyn. Corporate media coverage of the facility has been relatively scant. Only a handful of outlets provided detailed or consistent reports on how many illegal immigrants at the location.

Floyd Bennett Field began as a civilian-use airfield before being turned into a naval air facility. After the U.S. Navy closed its operations at the airfield, it was transferred to the National Park Service and added to the Gateway National Recreation Area’s Jamaica Bay Unit. The New York Police Department (NYPD) maintains a helicopter landing pad and facility on the property.

Since the start of the southern border crisis under President Joe Biden, New York City has seen an estimated influx of an estimated 175,0000 illegal immigrants. The massive number of illegals has placed tremendous strain on the city’s budget and sent rents skyrocketing as demand for housing has increased. It is unclear if any of the facility’s residents are scheduled for deportation.

Migrant TikToker Teaches Illegals to Squat In American Homes.

A video circulating on the social media platform TikTok depicts a migrant advising other migrants on how to use progressive squatting laws to steal unoccupied homes in the U.S.

Venezuelan national Leonel Moreno, a TikToker with a 500,000-strong online following, says in the video, “I found out that there is a law that says that if a house is not inhabited, we can seize it.” Moreno states that his friends have “already taken about seven homes.” He claims migrants must “invade” unoccupied homes to avoid living on the streets.

Concerns about the erosion of private property rights provoked by far-left progressive squatting laws are intensifying. Some see the Moreno video as a testament to the fact that these laws are being manipulated, jeopardizing landlords’ rights.

Just this week, a New York City homeowner was arrested for altering the locks on her own house that was occupied by illegal squatters. In New York, if squatters occupy a property for at least 30 days they are entitled to “squatters rights.”

962% Increase in ‘Missed’ Deportation Filings Since 2020.

Around 200,000 illegal aliens have avoided deportation because the Biden government failed to file the paperwork associated with their court dates and subsequent removals – with a stark 962 percent rise, in 2023, since the Trump administration’s final year in office (2020).

The details: According to a new report from the non-partisan Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC), the Biden Department of Homeland Security (DHS) failed to file the required ‘Notice to Appear’ (NTA) paperwork before their court dates, resulting in the cases being thrown out.

What is a ‘Notice to Appear’? It’s the official document that starts removal proceedings against an illegal alien, requiring them to appear in immigration court — usually years after they’re apprehended.

The numbers: According to the TRAC report, under Biden, the total number of missed filings was:

  • 33,802 in 2021
  • 79,592 in 2022
  • 68,869 in 2023

For perspective: In President Donald Trump’s final year in office, 2020, there were just 6,482 missed filings.

Zoom out: Since Biden has taken office, more than 10 million illegal aliens have entered the United States.

The Biden regime is simply “forgetting” to file the paperwork doesn’t seem intentional at all… 👀

‘I Came The Right Way’ – Legal Migrants Bemoan Biden’s Border Carnage.

Legal immigrants in the U.S. are voicing growing anger with the invasion of illegal immigrants under the Biden government. Two legal U.S. immigrants, Muhammad Hassan from Pakistan and Sabine Durden-Coulter from Germany, aired their grievances with President Biden’s open border policies while speaking with Fox News on Tuesday.

“Every time the government has asked for a piece of paper, we provided it in a week or less. And, every time, the response has been nothing but silence,” Hassan told the news network. The legal immigrant from Pakistan has attempted for four years to have his wife join him in the U.S. after he took almost two decades to attain citizenship. Hassan said he has exhausted all available avenues for assistance, having contacted his congressman, senator, and the White House with no help offered.

Sabine Durden-Coulter, who migrated to California in 1989 and became a citizen in 1996, echoed Hassan’s sentiments, expressing her anger and disappointment at how the situation is unfolding in America. Her life was tragically impacted in 2012 when her son Dominic was killed in an accident by an illegal immigrant.

“I came the right way, and all I have left of my family is my son Dominic, his ashes,” Durden-Coulter told Fox News. “People need to start speaking out, speaking up, because this is now affecting everybody, everywhere in the United States. I don’t care where you live, and it has to stop. And our government has really got to get it together.”

She added: “I don’t want to hear from another angel family. I don’t want to hear another angel mom crying while telling me her story.”

WATCH: Kassam Explains How Major U.S. Corporates Are Hiring Illegals and Getting Away With It.

Following revelations that Tyson Foods is looking to employ another 42,000 migrants, The National Pulse editor-in-chief Raheem Kassam explained how corporations, aided by the Biden regime, are profiting from an illegal immigration crisis they claim to oppose.

In a lengthy segment on Bannon’s War Room, Kassam walked through the chicanery by the Obama-world group called ‘Tent‘ and the Biden regime’s implementation of a modern-day slave trade in America.

“MODERN SLAVERY.”

“Tyson Foods [is] a fascinating company when you take a look under the hood,” Kassam told Steve Bannon on War Room.

“They themselves say that a third of their current 120,000-plus are migrants,” he said, noting that Tyson is “part of something called Tent… a pro-mass migration organization that is actually led by an Obama-era White House staffer.”

“[W]hat they do is they sign up corporates all across America and they effectively say, ‘Hey, we’re going to get you cheap labor,’” Kassam said.

“It’s indentured servitude, it’s a form of modern slavery… people who can en masse wash the chickens, people who don’t particularly care about health standards, wellbeing, minimum wage standards… just shove them into your factories and use them as human fodder,” he explained.

EXPLOITING TECHNICALITIES

Kassam described how corporations are able to profit from the border crisis while claiming to be against illegal immigration by exploiting “technicalities.”

“So, while Tyson Foods will say, ‘No, look, we’re part of the E-Verify program and illegal immigration, we’re completely opposed to it,’ what they’re actually relying on is something called employment authorization documents,” Kassam said.

“[T]hat is something that the Biden regime reinstituted very quickly… emergency authorization documents for people who claim asylum in the United States to then be able to work while they are awaiting a court case,” he continued.

“Most of these court cases are not even heard, they don’t even bother showing up in most circumstances, and they just remain in the country and work. Well, they’re working under these employment authorization documents… and the scale at which they’re being churned out by the current government is absolutely stunning,” he added.

Tyson is not alone in profiting from the scam, Kassam said, citing corporations including Bank of America, McDonald’s, and Mastercard.

“Everybody on the corporate globalist side gets everything they want,” he concluded.

Illegals Are Breaking the Bank in Denver.

Denver’s economic challenges continue to mount as the Democrat-controlled ‘sanctuary city’ struggles with increasing numbers of illegal immigrants. Within a little over a year, the city council has seen costs for feeding its illegal population surge. In December 2023, the city allocated $100,000 for a contract to provide food for its illegal aliens. By January of 2024, the food costs had increased to $475,000. Last month, the city had to pay an additional $450,000 in food costs, with another $500,000 expected to come due in June.

In total, the city has spent around $1.4 million in taxpayer dollars on the feeding of its illegal alien population. With almost 40,000 migrants arriving in the past year in response to Denver’s sanctuary city status, the city’s budgetary stress is reaching crisis levels.

The increased contract costs come as Denver is wrestling with a nearly $60 million budget deficit — exacerbated by the financial demands of offering food, shelter, and additional services to arriving migrants. Mayor Mike Johnston stated that to retain the existing services for illegal immigrants, taxpayers could face costs upwards of $100 million over the forthcoming year.

Denver has obtained some aid from the state and federal government, including a $3.5 million reimbursement from Colorado’s state government and a $1.6 million federal advance from the Biden government’s Department of Homeland Security. An additional $12.2 million in potential federal reimbursements is currently under review.

Democrat-controlled ‘sanctuary cities’ across the country have come under increasing fiscal strain from growing illegal immigrant populations. While many have turned to the Biden government for federal aid, New York City’s mayor, Eric Adams, has pushed to end the Big Apple’s status as a ‘sanctuary city.’

Populist Leader Marion Maréchal: Europe Is ‘Digital Colony of U.S., Economic Colony of China, Demographic Colony of Africa.’

Leading French populist Marion Maréchal has lamented Europe’s loss of independence in various spheres and warned mass migration could lead to it being effectively transformed into another country.

“I wake up at 34 years old in a European Union which has become a digital colony of the United States, an economic colony of China, [and] a demographic colony of Africa,” she said, adding that it is also “on the way to becoming a colony of Islam.”

Muslims accounted for around a tenth of the French population as of 2019-20. France has also suffered more radical Islamic terror attacks than any other European country, including the November 2015 attacks in Paris that saw 130 murdered and over 410 injured in a series of suicide bombings and mass shootings, and the July 2016 attacks in Nice that saw 86 killed and over 430 wounded by a North African migrant driving a heavy truck.

Maréchal is the niece of Marine Le Pen, the longtime leader of National Rally (formerly National Front) who contended for the French presidency in 2012, 2017, and 2022.

Maréchal served as a National Assembly member — roughly equivalent to a U.S. House Rep. — for National Rally from 2012 to 2017, but is now a candidate for Reconquest, a rival populist party headed by “French Tucker Carlson” Éric Zemmour.
