Border Patrol Chief Jason Owens says Vice President Kamala Harris, whom Joe Biden put in charge of the U.S. border crisis in March 2021, has not spoken with him since he assumed office last July. Owens’s predecessor, Raul Ortiz, who retired in May 2023, revealed this March that he “never had one conversation with the President or Vice President” during two years in office.
Vice President Harris’s status as “Border Czar”—which her corporate media allies are now denying—is likely to hamstring her efforts to present her presidential candidacy as a clean break from that of Joe Biden, who endorsed her after abandoning the race on Sunday.
“When she speaks, she speaks for me. Doesn’t have to check with me. She knows what she’s doing,” Biden said when assigning her the role in 2021.
Illegal immigration has reached unprecedented heights under the Biden-Harris regime. It is projected that, by the end of its four years, it will have overseen an influx of illegal migrants on par with the number of legal migrants Ellis Island processed across 63 years.
Meanwhile, the year 2023 saw a flood of resignations from the Biden-Harris border team, including Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security John Tien, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) chief Chris Magnus, and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) acting chief Tae Johnson. The slew of departures raises additional questions about Harris’s role in overseeing the U.S. border and her ability to manage federal offices effectively.

Vice President Kamala Harris, put in charge of the illegal immigration crisis by Joe Biden in March 2021, claimed the border was “secure” just days after Laken Riley’s alleged murderer crossed over it. Harris made the comments in an NBC interview aired on September 11, 2022. Jose Antonio Ibarra had crossed the border on September 8. Authorities initially detained Ibarra, but he was soon “paroled into the country illegally” by the Biden-Harris regime, according to the Senate Judiciary Committee.
“We’re going to have two million people cross this border for the first time ever. You’re confident this border’s secure?” asked interviewer Chuck Todd.
“We have a secure border,” Harris insisted, despite all evidence to the contrary. She swiftly moved on to push for a “law and a plan for a pathway for citizenship for the millions of [illegal aliens] who are here”—a move that would further incentivize illegal immigration.
Projections indicate illegal immigration to the U.S. under the Biden-Harris regime will match all legal immigration via Ellis Island from 1892, when former Civil War colonel Benjamin Harrison was President, to 1954, when General Dwight Eisehower’s government closed the federal processing center down.
Since 2022, the Biden-Harris regime has granted de facto amnesty to at least 350,000 illegal aliens, terminating their asylum cases with no decision made on their eligibility and no decision to deport them. The government is also granting new protections against deportation to hundreds of thousands of illegal alien spouses of U.S. citizens, incentivizing sham marriages.

City officials in Springfield, Ohio, are voicing concerns over the local housing crisis, exacerbated by a rise in the number of illegalimmigrants who have flooded the locality under Joe Biden. City Manager Bryan Heck has reached out to U.S. Senators Tim Scott (R-SC) and Sherrod Brown (D-OH) for federal assistance as the situation continues to strain resources.
Sen. Brown is the chairman of the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs. Tim Scott is the committee’s ranking Republican member.
Heck mentioned in his letter that the population surge, mainly driven by illegalimmigration, has overwhelmed Springfield’s capacity to provide adequate housing. “Springfield’s Haitian population has increased to 15,000 – 20,000 over the last four years in a community of just under 60,000 previous residents,” Heck wrote. This significant growth is challenging the city’s ability to meet its residents’ housing demands.
During a Senate Banking Committee hearing on Tuesday, Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) highlighted this issue by presenting Heck’s letter. Vance pointed out that Springfield’s struggle to build 5,000 new housing units, a considerable effort for a town of approximately 55,000 people, is compounded by additional pressures on hospital and school services. “This immigration problem,” Vance stated, “is having very real human consequences.”
Since January 2021, an estimated 16.8 million illegalimmigrants have entered the United States, originating from over 150 countries. This influx is contributing to housing shortages and elevated costs nationwide.
Springfield’s plea for federal aid underscores the broader challenges faced by communities distant from border areas, often left dealing with the unexpected demands of increased illegalimmigration.

House Republicans passed the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act which would amend current federal voter laws to prevent noncitizens from casting ballots in federal elections. The vote for passage was largely along party lines.
The SAVE Act, sponsored by Representative Chip Roy (R-TX), was introduced in response to mounting concerns regarding noncitizen voters in states across the country. At the state level, Democrat lawmakers have expanded access to driver’s licenses for illegalimmigrants and other noncitizens. Subsequently, these same Democrat lawmakers have also backed laws at the state and federal level that require government forms—including driver’s license applications—to offer applicants the option to register to vote.
“Radical progressive Democrats are engaged in a wholesale attack on citizenship and what it means to be an American,” Rep. Roy said in a statement to The National Pulse following the SAVE Act‘s passage. He added: “We will only be able to keep this republic as a republic as long as our citizenship as Americans remains meaningful. That’s why I introduced the SAVE Act in the first place, and it’s why the People’s House passed it today.”
Without stringent proof-of-citizenship requirements—opposed mainly by state and national Democrats—noncitizens face few roadblocks to being added to state voter rolls. The National Pulse has documented instances of noncitizen voters and state legal changes that make noncitizens casting illegal ballots more likely.
The SAVE Act, which now heads to the U.S. Senate for consideration, would require proof of citizenship for individuals who register to vote at departments of motor vehicles (DMVs) and other state agencies. It also mandates the removal of foreign nationals from state voting registers.

Approximately 85,000 children who crossed the U.S. border as unaccompanied minors are missing after being placed with sponsors. Government whistleblowers shared this information with a Senate panel on Tuesday. They said that children are often placed with individuals who are not their relatives and provided evidence of abuse and trafficking.
Tara Lee Rodas, a whistleblower with a 20-year federal career, described her experiences at the Pomona Fairplex Emergency Intake Site, where she served as Deputy to the Director of the Federal Case Management Team.
One case involved a 16-year-old Guatemalan girl named Carmen, who was placed with a man claiming to be her brother but who subsequently posted child pornography online.
Rodas also stated that gangs like MS-13 are involved in child placement. Despite warnings, authorities retaliated against her rather than investigate her claims.
Whistleblower Deborah White alleges that sponsors are rarely vetted face-to-face and fake documents are pervasive.
“Children were not going to their parents. Children were being trafficked with billions of taxpayer dollars by a contractor failing to vet sponsors and process children safely, with government officials complicit in it,” she said.
The oversight of sponsors by the Department of Human Services involved minimal follow-up, typically limited to a single phone call 30 days post-placement. By that time, many children could no longer be contacted.
Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra maintains that no children have gone missing from HHS custody; however, whistleblowers clarified that this claim was technically accurate only until transportation companies delivered the children to their sponsors. The children often went missing shortly thereafter.

New York City hotel bosses have raked in over a billion dollars converting their premises into migrant shelters so far. Mayor Eric Adams‘s city government expends an average of $156 per room per night on accommodation for illegal aliens, with some rooms costing more than $300 per night. Since the onset of the crisis, the city’s total spending on the migrant influx has reached approximately $4.88 billion, with $1.98 billion expended on housing illegals.
Internal documents indicate that about 80 percent of these shelters are motels or inns. However, the city has also made contracts with larger hotels, including a $5.13 million-per-month deal with the Row NYC hotel in Midtown Manhattan and a $2 million-per-month agreement with the Crowne Plaza JFK in South Jamaica, Queens.
Some shelter deals benefit foreign states, with the Roosevelt Hotel in Manhattan, now a processing center and temporary shelter for illegals, belonging to the Pakistani government.
In September, officials extended a contract with the Hotel Association of New York City (HANYC) for three years for $1.3 billion. Another deal, valued at $76.69 million, was signed in January to provide shelter across 15 hotels in Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx through July.
Several hotels used to house migrants are luxury accommodations, such as the Hotel Le Jolie in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn and the Square Hotel on Broadway.
Local business owners are expressing concerns about the negative impact of these shelters, which often hostcriminals and repel the public, on their own businesses. Some fear they will have to close due to lost revenue.
Other Democrat-run states have been dealing with similar issues. In Massachusetts, whistleblowers describe how migrants are not only getting free hotel rooms but also free tablets, toys, healthcare, and more.

While Joe Biden’s poor debate performance and mental decline are dominating the news, the migrant crime epidemic Donald Trump warned against in February continues apace.
CHICK-FIL-A SHOOTER.
Authorities have charged Oved Bernardo Mendoza Argueta, 37, with capital murder for allegedly shooting and killing two workers at a Chick-fil-A in Texas.
The El Salvadoran told authorities he crossed the U.S. border unlawfully, but he did not specify the time or place of entry. Mendoza Argueta states he is married and has a child who is a U.S. citizen. This puts him in a category of illegal alien Joe Biden says he will protect from deportation.
The shootings took in the Dallas suburb of Irving and claimed the lives of Brayan Godoy, a 31-year-old father of four, and Patricia Portillo, a 49-year-old grandmother.
WAR CRIMINALS.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has been straining its resources to locate and arrest 11 foreigners who “fraudulently entered the United States in an attempt to escape justice” for violating human rights in their homelands.
According to ICE, these include:
Three people from Central America implicated in a variety of human rights violations against civilians and political opponents, including extrajudicial killings, enforced disappearances, intelligence gathering for violent regimes and attacks against civilian infrastructure.
Three people from Africa implicated in extrajudicial killings, rape, recruiting child soldiers and committing atrocities on behalf of governments in addition to supporting persecutor groups.
One person from Asia who admitted to targeting women for forced abortions and sterilizations, as well as physically abducting women while working on behalf of the ruling political party.
Two former members of paramilitary groups — one in Asia, another in the Caribbean — known to have committed serious human rights violations through violent repression and arresting people without cause and extorting civilians by use of force.
Two people from the Caucasus who admitted to organizing violent clashes with opposing political factions and targeting religious minorities for abuse.
ICE required the support of the Human Rights Violators and War Crimes Center of Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) for the operation, showcasing the burden of dealing with the world’s war criminals and human rights abusers being in the U.S. thanks to lax immigration controls.
HONDURAN PEDOPHILE.
Honduran illegal Junior Manuel Dubon Benitez, 18, has been charged with sexually assaulting a 12-year-old girl in Iowa. Benitez is charged with sexual abuse in the second degree, according to Iowa court documents.
Dubon Benitez entered the U.S. illegally via Hidalgo, Texas, in April 2022.
HONDURAN HUMAN TRAFFICKER.
Another Honduran, Dora Patricia Flores Canales, has been deported for “aggravated human trafficking in the form of commercial sexual exploitation.”
ICE suggested the foreign fugitive posed “a significant threat to our nation.”
DOMINICAN DRUG TRAFFICKER.
Dominican illegal Jose Abel Polanco-Ramirez, 23, has been detained by ICE after being charged with “trafficking cocaine, distribution of cocaine, possession of cocaine and carrying a dangerous weapon” in Massachusetts.
“Jose Abel Polanco-Ramirez is charged with peddling poison while carrying a deadly weapon on the streets of our Massachusetts community,” said an ICE spokesman. ICE also noted they issued a detainer against Polanco-Ramirez after he was initially charged, but local authorities ignored them and let the illegal loose among the public again.
WANTED CHILD RAPIST.
Also in Massachusetts, ICE detained an unnamed Ecuadorian illegal who first entered the U.S. in 2021. He has been wanted in Ecuador for the rape of a minor and invasion of privacy since at least May 2023.
“This Ecuadorian fugitive is facing some very serious charges, but instead of facing the justice system, he fled and attempted to take refuge in Massachusetts,” said an ICE spokesman, adding that the illegal “posed a significant threat to the children of our communities.”
CONNECTICUT KILLER.
Manuel Fernando Alejandor-Martinez, 23, has been taken into custody by ICE following a conviction for manslaughter in Connecticut.
The Guatemalan illegal, who killed a Connecticut resident while driving an uninsured vehicle, had been released to a halfway house by the Connecticut Department of Corrections in August 2023 in defiance of an ICE detainer.

U.S. government data backs up former President Donald J. Trump‘s charge that illegalimmigrants are impacting job opportunities for black Americans. The America First leader blasted Joe Biden‘s open border policies during the first 2024 presidential debate, stating the “20 million people” people who have entered the country illegally are “taking black jobs, and they’re taking Hispanic jobs.”
Leftist critics in the corporate media, as well as supporters of Joe Biden, claim Trump‘s remarks are racially charged. However, a House committee last year heard testimonies indicating a significant impact on the workforce from an estimated nine million illegal alien workers. The Center for Immigration Studies presented findings that U.S.-born, working-age individuals not in the labor force had risen to 44 million by April 2023, almost 10 million more than in April 2000.
A 2008 report by the United States Commission on Civil Rights supported some of Trump’s assertions, finding illegalimmigration increased the low-skilled labor supply, which disproportionately affected black males, many of whom have high school diplomas or less. This led to reduced wages, lower employment rates, and higher incarceration rates among black Americans.
Critics, including MSNBC writer Ja’han Jones, labeled Trump’s phrasing “racist and dehumanizing.” Jones argued that the notion of “black jobs” was offensive and inaccurate. The Washington Post suggested that immigrants stimulate economic demand, leading to job creation rather than displacement. However, the publication acknowledged a decrease in black workers’ presence in lower-wage sectors, such as leisure, hospitality, and retail.
The National Pulse reported in February that Biden‘s so-called jobs recovery had been almost entirely driven by illegal and legal immigrant labor, with native-born Americans still being sidelined post-pandemic.

Public backlash over migrant crime and the rise of the populist right has prompted German Chancellor Olaf Scholz to adopt a tougher stance on immigration, despite his prior support for open-door policies.
Facing plummeting public approval and a surge in anti-mass migration sentiment, Scholz’s government has endorsed legislation allowing deportation for foreigners advocating violence on social media, following a fatal attack by an Afghan migrant at a mass migration rally that sparked widespread anger.
“It outrages me when someone who has found protection here commits the most serious of crimes,” Scholz claimed. “Such criminals should be deported, even if they come from Syria or Afghanistan.”
Crime statistics show a significant increase in offenses involving migrants, with foreigners comprising just 14.6 percent of Germany’s population but accounting for 58.5 percent of all violent crimes.
Scholz’s proposed deportation bill faces challenges, including constitutional issues and logistical hurdles in deporting individuals from countries such as Syria and Afghanistan that are deemed unsafe.
Scholz, under pressure to address migration concerns before next year’s federal elections, has attempted diplomatic agreements to facilitate deportations.
His change of course comes after a populist surge during last month’s European elections, as the anti-mass migration Alternative for Germany (AfD) beat Scholz’s Social Democrats and their coalition partners in the far-left Greens and neoliberal Free Democrats.
Raheem Kassam, Editor-in-Chief of The National Pulse, remarked last month that the surge of support for populist parties was shifting the Overton Window on issues like mass migration.

The Joe Biden regime is actively reimporting illegal aliens deported to Cameroon by Donald Trump. Discovered through interviews with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) personnel and an examination of internal documents, the move remains unannounced to the public.
Memos reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon reveal ICE collaborating with nonprofits to bring back the migrants. An internal email from 2023 shows Fatma Marouf, director of the Immigrant Rights Clinic at Texas A&M University, informing ICE of an arriving migrant at Washington-Dulles Airport.
Former ICE chief of staff Tom Blank suggests activist groups influencing Department of Homeland Security (DHS) decisions compromises the legal process. ICE’s collaboration with the Immigrant Rights Clinic is unusual. Such returns typically follow strict judicial orders after recognized prosecution errors.
Documents suggest the Biden regime aims to avoid litigation related to alleged abuses of Cameroonian migrants. A pending lawsuit in New York concerning related documents is noted—but no court has mandated their return.
The decision seems tied to a February 2022 Human Rights Watch report alleging mistreatment of Cameroonians deported between 2019 and 2021. Current and former ICE officials say reversing deportations for individuals previously deemed ineligible for asylum is unprecedented.
On his first day in office, Biden halted border wall construction. He also ended the policy of requiring asylum seekers to wait in Mexico for court hearings. Most Americans believe he is “encouraging” illegal aliens to enter the U.S. to “create a permanent majority” for the Democrats.
Projections suggest that, by the end of his term, he will have overseen an illegal immigrantinflux on par with all legal immigration from 1892 to 1954.
