Biden’s Stealth Amnesty: 350,000 Asylum Cases Terminated Without Review.

The Joe Biden regime appears to be granting “mass amnesty” for hundreds of thousands of migrants by stealth. Since 2022, the federal government has terminated over 350,000 asylum cases “without a decision on the merits of their asylum claim,” — allowing them to remain in the U.S. essentially unmonitored without receiving either a deportation order or a grant of asylum.

“This is just a massive amnesty under the guise of prosecutorial discretion,” said Andrew Arthur, a former immigration judge now with the Center for Immigration Studies. “You’re basically allowing people who don’t have a right to be in the United States to be here indefinitely,” he added.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) sources warn they have seen a spike in migrants committing crimes after their asylum cases were dismissed, pleading with the New York Post to “Please let everyone know what’s really going on.”

PUBLIC SAFETY. 

ICE sources and immigration lawyers warn migrants no longer have to report to ICE after their asylum cases are dismissed. They also stress this makes it much harder to deport migrants even if they are caught committing crimes afterward.

“If the migrants, who ICE no longer controls or monitors, commit crimes after the dismissal, ICE will have to start all over and issue a new Notice to Appear in court and start the clock all over again,” one source explained.

Only 4,730 were allowed to remain in the U.S., with no grant of asylum or deportation being handed down in 2020, Donald Trump’s last full year in office. This rose to 18,119 in 2021, higher than any year of Trump’s first term, then exploded to 102,550 in 2022 and 149,305 in 2023. So far, in 2024, 113,843 migrants have been allowed to remain with no asylum decision, on top of 26,514 who have been proactively granted asylum.

Polls show over half of likely voters in the U.S. believe Biden is “encouraging” illegal aliens to enter the United States en masse to “create a permanent majority” for the Democratic Party.

By the end of his term, the 81-year-old is projected to have overseen an illegal immigration influx equivalent to all legal immigration through Ellis Island from 1982 to 1954.

Cops Shot by Venezuelan Illegal.

Two New York Police Department (NYPD) officers were shot early Monday morning by an illegal alien from Venezuela following an attempted traffic stop. The shooting occurred at approximately 1:40 AM at the intersection of 89th Street and 23rd Avenue. During the stop attempt, the suspect, identified as 19-year-old Bernardo Raul Castro-Mata, allegedly jumped off his scooter and fled on foot. As the officers pursued him, the suspect opened fire at them. They returned fire, hitting Castro-Mata in the ankle.

Both police officers were subsequently treated for their injuries and released from the hospital. One officer sustained a gunshot wound to the leg, while the other was saved by his bulletproof vest.

Donald Trump has warned of the rise in Venezuelan migrant crime, stressing the need to stop the ultra-violent Tren de Aragua gang, which also operates across Chile, Ecuador, Colombia, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, and Panama, from turning its foothold in the U.S. into an entrenched position.

The former president’s tough stance against crime has earned the endorsement of thousands of New York bodegas. He is polling surprisingly close to Joe Biden, who endorses pro-criminal policies, such as cashless bail, in the Empire State. Sixty-four percent of New Yorkers blame Biden for the migrant crisis, and 70 percent believe he is unfit for office.

Castro-Mata crossed into the United States through Eagle Pass, Texas, in July 2023. The burden imposed on law enforcement by criminal migrants has become enormous under Biden, with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) tasked with monitoring 617,000 illegals with criminal records or pending criminal charges — more than the entire population of the State of Wyoming.

Embattled Senator Bob Menendez Ditches Dems, Will Run as Independent.

Senator Bob Menendez (D-NJ) is preparing to file paperwork to appear as an independent U.S. Senate candidate on the 2024 New Jersey election ballot amid an ongoing corruption trial. The deadline for filing signatures in New Jersey is 4PM on Tuesday, which also coincides with the state’s partisan primary elections. Independent candidates require 800 signatures to qualify for the general election ballot.

Sen. Menendez, who announced in March that he would not seek re-election as a Democrat, left open the possibility of an independent run. “I will not file for the Democratic primary this June,” he stated in a video message. “I am hopeful that my exoneration will take place this summer and allow me to pursue my candidacy as an independent Democrat in the general election.”

Menendez is currently facing federal prosecution on corruption charges. The National Pulse reported that the New Jersey Democrat is accused of accepting cash, gold bars, luxury wristwatches, and other perks from New Jersey businessmen in exchange for providing official favors to benefit the businessmen and the governments of Egypt and Qatar. Menendez, 70, has fervently denied the allegations, labeling the prosecution as “overzealous.”

Rep. Andy Kim, a Democratic challenger who entered the Senate race in response to Menendez’s indictment, was critical of the incumbent’s decision. In a statement to ABC News, Kim asserted, “Americans are fed up with politicians putting their own personal benefit ahead of what’s right for the country. Everyone knows Bob Menendez isn’t running for the people of New Jersey, he’s doing it for himself. It’s beyond time for change and I’m stepping up to restore integrity back into the U.S. Senate.”

Biden Grants MILLIONS of Work Permits to Illegals, With Some Becoming COPS!?

The Biden government has issued over 3.3 million asylum seekers with Employment Authorization Documents (EAD), commonly known as federal work permits, despite many recipients having no legal right to reside in the U.S. The scheme has even been used to allow some non-citizens to become police officers in states such as California and Illinois.

Traditionally, asylum is intended for people fleeing persecution, not economic migrants seeking better employment opportunities. To reduce fraudulent asylum claims, the U.S. historically required asylum seekers to wait 180 days before applying for work permits. However, the Biden regime has modified this waiting period rule through over 530 immigration-related executive actions, expanding admissions and creating new pathways under various programs.

These programs include population transfers from Afghanistan and Ukraine, “family reunification” (chain migration) programs, and the use of the CBPOne app, which facilitated the entry of a Haitian now accused of double murder earlier this year.

As of fall 2023, around 2.3 million migrants had entered the U.S. through these programs with minimal health and background checks. Pending EAD applications stand at 1.4 million.

These programs do not grant lawful immigration status but rely on the federal government’s “parole” authority. Over 700,000 illegal border-crossers were granted parole in 2022-23, compared to only 479 such individuals between 2013 and 2020. Parolees are often eligible for work permits and Social Security cards. The number of work permits has risen from 1.279 million in 2022 to 2.139 million in 2023, with projections indicating a rise to 3.3 million in 2024.

The National Pulse’s Editor-in-Chief Raheem Kassam has previously explained how the Biden regime issuing Employment Authorization Documents en masse allowed meat-processing and other industries addicted to migrant labor to profit from illegal immigration despite claiming to oppose it.

Trump Warns of Public Outrage if Jailed: ‘There’s a Breaking Point!’

Former President Donald J. Trump said in an interview on Sunday that if he is sentenced to prison or house arrest following his recent conviction in New York City, it would be “tough for the public.” Responding to Democrats who argue he should be jailed over his politics, Trump insisted that he is the “opposite” of a threat to democracy.

When asked about the possibility of being sentenced to house arrest or jail time, Trump responded, “I’m okay with it,” but also noted, “I think it’d be tough for the public to take. At a certain point, there’s a breaking point.”

Touching on the case against him and the resulting guilty verdict, Trump remarked, “It’s weaponization of the Justice Department, of the FBI, and you know that’s all coming out of Washington. You may think it’s Bragg. Take a look at who opened the case. I’m not allowed to talk about it because I have a gag order.”

Trump mentioned that the situation has been more challenging for his family than for him personally.

Addressing his critics who label him a “threat to democracy,” Trump stated, “It’s their slogan. I’m a ‘threat to democracy.’ I’m the opposite.”

Trump is scheduled to be sentenced for the Manhattan case on July 11, which is just days before the Republican National Convention. The former Republican President, found guilty on 34 counts of falsifying business records last week by a Manhattan jury, could face several years in prison. Democrat-aligned Judge Juan Merchan, who presided over the trial, will also determine Trump’s sentencing.

Salem Media Pulls Dinesh D’Souza’s ‘2000 Mules.’

Salem Media Group has decided to pull Dinesh D’Souza’s documentary 2000 Mules from its platforms. The move follows an apology issued to a Georgia man falsely accused of illegal voting activity in the film.

The 2022 documentary grossed close to $1.5 million. It made various claims suggesting the 2020 election was rigged. However, Factcheck.org and other organizations allegedly ‘debunked’ multiple claims in the film. Despite this, former President Trump cited the film to support his assertions regarding a stolen election.

Salem Media Group released a statement regarding their decision to withdraw the film. “In publishing the film and the book, we relied on representations made by Dinesh D’Souza and True the Vote, Inc. that the individuals depicted, including Mr. Andrews, illegally deposited ballots. We have learned that the Georgia Bureau of Investigation has cleared Mr. Andrews of any wrongdoing related to the depicted events.”

The statement continued, “It was never our intent for the publication of the ‘2000 Mules’ film and book to harm Mr. Andrews. We apologize for the hurt the inclusion of Mr. Andrews’ image has caused him and his family. We have removed the film from Salem’s platforms and will cease any future distribution of the film or book.” The book was initially published through Regnery Publishing, a former division of Salem Media Group.

Mark Andrews, the individual affected, had filed a defamation lawsuit against Salem Media, D’Souza, and True the Vote.

However, despite the alleged “debunking” of D’Souza’s film, subsequent reports have revealed massive irregularities surrounding the 2020 election in Georgia. A recent investigation revealed serious issues with the Fulton County, Georgia recount, including duplicate ballot images, fake Biden ballots, and thousands of missing ballots.

Hunter Biden Jury Selection Starts.

Jury selection for the federal gun case against Hunter Biden, son of Joe Biden, begins Monday. The trial comes after a “sweetheart” plea deal with prosecutors fell apart when Judge Maryellen Noreika interrogated its unusually generous terms.

Hunter has been charged in Delaware with three felonies related to a 2018 firearm purchase. His memoirs say he was abusing crack cocaine during this period. The First Son is accused of lying to a federally licensed gun dealer, falsely claiming he was not a drug abuser on his firearm application, and possessing the gun illegally for 11 days.

He has pleaded not guilty, alleging the Justice Department is unfairly targeting him despite the special treatment in his now-defunct plea deal.

During jury selection, the judge will question prospective jurors about their political activities and views on the upcoming election, as well as their opinions on firearms purchases and drug addiction.

Separately, Hunter is also facing a California trial in September for allegedly failing to pay $1.4 million in taxes. The aforementioned plea deal would have dealt with these charges as well.

FAMILY BUSINESS.

Hunter’s upcoming trials do not center on his foreign business deals. Joe Biden allegedly played a role in these, indicating broader corruption within the Biden family.

Messages Hunter exchanged with a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) official from Joe Biden’s Delaware home before he became President show Hunter threatening, “I am sitting here with my father, and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled… [I] will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following my direction. I am sitting here waiting for the call with my father.”

Joe Biden has long denied any involvement in his son’s business schemes. However, Rep. James Comer’s House Oversight Committee found Hunter’s China-linked Owasco PC firm made “direct monthly payments to Joe Biden.”

Mexico Elects Far-Left Claudia Sheinbaum as First Female, First ‘Jewish’ President.

Claudia Sheinbaum has won the Mexican presidential elections. A member of current president Andrés Manuel López Obrador’s leftist Moreno party, Obrador will be both the first woman and the first Jewish person to become President of Mexico. Sheinbaum, a climate “scientist,” has strongly emphasized her sex, telling supporters, “For the first time in 200 years of the Republic, I will become the first woman president of Mexico. We have achieved a plural, diverse, and democratic Mexico.” Conversely, she has downplayed her Jewish heritage, saying, “Of course I know where I come from, but my parents were atheists,” and insisting she “never belonged to the Jewish community.”

Her Ashkenazi paternal and Sephardic maternal grandparents migrated to Mexico from Lithuania and Bulgaria, respectively.

The Mexican presidency is an important matter for the U.S., with the flood of illegal aliens and fentanyl across the southern border having reached unprecedented heights with Obrador in the Mexican presidential palace and Joe Biden in the White House.

President Obrador, known as AMLO, has shown little enthusiasm for tackling the crises. “We do not produce fentanyl, and we do not have consumption of fentanyl” in Mexico, he said in 2023, telling Americans the drug is “their problem.”

The same year, Obrador said the “flow of migrants” will continue unless the U.S. meets a series of Mexican demands, including an end to the trade embargo against communist Cuba, the lifting of sanctions against communist Venezuela, the legalization of millions of Mexican illegals, and tens of billions of dollars in payouts to Latin America.

Sheinbaum has said she will continue Obrador’s foreign policy with “pride” and “will always tell [the U.S.] it’s better to build bridges rather than walls.”

The Washington Post Will Now Be Led by Two Brits Who Broke One of the Biggest Scandals in UK Politics.

Sally Buzbee announced she is stepping down as executive editor of The Washington Post. Buzbee’s departure came as a surprise to many late on Sunday night, including Post reporters themselves.

Buzbee will be succeeded by Matt Murray, the former Editor-in-Chief of the Wall Street Journal, in the short term. British investigative reporter Robert Winnett, currently the deputy editor of The Telegraph Media Group, will also join the Post in a new role designed to oversee core coverage areas like politics, investigations, business, technology, sports, and features.

Winnett, who began his national newspaper career at Rupert Murdoch’s Sunday Times, moved to the Telegraph nearly two decades ago, assisting in the coverage of the massive parliamentary expenses scandal story that broke in 2009. At the time, Winnett worked under Will Lewis, who is now the publisher of the Bezos-owned Post.

Winnett and Lewis aren’t the only Brits making America their home for news reporting. CNN recently brought in the BBC’s Mark Thompson. GB News recently sent reporter Steven Edginton to Washington, D.C., and the Daily Mail’s Rob Crilly can often be spotted around Capitol Hill. The National Pulse is also edited by a Brit, Raheem Kassam.

Knife Attacker At Anti-Islamization Rally Identified As 25-Year-Old Afghan Migrant.

The individual responsible for attacking multiple people at an anti-Islamization rally in the German city of Mannheim on Friday has been identified as Sulaiman A., a 25-year-old Afghan migrant. A graphic video of the attack shows the Afghan national and resident of Hesse attacking people at a rally against Islamist extremism organized by the Citizens’ Movement Pax Europa (BpE), described as a counter-jihad group.

Multiple people attempted to restrain the attacker, including a police officer who appeared to be stabbed in the neck while trying to bring the attacker to the ground. A second police officer then shot the suspect, wounding him.

German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser has raised the possibility that the attack could be Islamist-motivated. “If the investigations reveal an Islamist motive, this would be a further confirmation of the great danger posed by Islamist acts of violence,” she said in a statement.

The National Pulse has previously reported that migrants in Germany have been the source of a wave of violent crime. Recent data disclosed by Germany‘s Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) revealed that foreign migrants, who account for just 14.6 percent of the country’s population, were implicated in 58.5 percent of all violent crimes in the country.

Meanwhile, the German Interior Ministry has confirmed that the number of foreign criminal suspects surged to approximately 923,000 in 2023, a rise of almost a fifth year over year.
