The Biden regime has admitted it’s flown in hundreds of thousands of illegals on secret flights to the United States but is refusing to tell lawmakers where cities they’re being flown to.
The details:A report from the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) found that in 2023 alone, 320,000 “inadmissible migrants” were flown directly from their home countries to US cities.
Zoom out:These hundreds of thousands of illegals are in addition to the record-high 3.2 million illegals encountered in fiscal year 2023.
How is this happening?Last year, the Biden regime rolled out the CBP One smartphone app, which allows people to apply for asylum from their home country. Then, Biden flies them to the US using our tax dollars and gives them two years to obtain legal status.
Where are they going? The CIS report confirmed 43 US airports received the illegals. Still, the Biden regime’s US Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) has refused to disclose which cities they’re being dropped in, citing security “vulnerabilities.”
Back up:Since taking office, Biden has undertaken a massive expansion of our immigration parole programs, which have historically been used to allow asylum seekers to come to the US for significant crises like war or natural disasters. But Biden has abused these programs, giving parole to over 1 million people.
Big picture: Biden is using these taxpayer-funded flights to lessen the traffic seen at the southern border. Tens of thousands of illegals at the border are bad optics for the regime. Flying them to US cities in the dead of night gets much less attention.

California lawmakers are proposing expanding the state’s zero-down home loan program to illegal aliens. The proposal — Assembly Bill 1840 — comes as the state grapples with a sharp imbalance in housing supply and demand, currently ranking 49th in the country for housing units per resident.
State Senator Briah Dahle (R-Bieber) slammed the bill, voicing concern for US citizens left behind in the housing market. “Assembly Bill 1840 is an insult to California citizens who are being left behind and priced out of homeownership,” said Dahle. “I’m all for helping first-time homebuyers, but give priority to those who are here in our state legally.”
The bill seeks to expand access to the California Dream for All Shared Appreciation Loans program to illegal aliens. Launched in 2023 with an initial fund of $300 million to help first-time home buyers, it depleted its funds in 11 days.
Threatening to further complicated matters for California is a new influx of illegal aliens seeking to cross California’s borders in the face of Texas’s measures to confront and contain the migrant invasion. Earlier this year, the state — which is already facing significant financial woes — expanded MediCal, its taxpayer-funded healthcare system, to cover illegal aliens. The state estimated that 700,000 illegal aliens would sign up at a cost of up to $3.4 billion. However, significant increases in California’s illegal alien population could spark significantly higher costs.

U.S. government data indicates a significant increase in the migrant population residing within the country, with numbers expected to reach eight million by the end of September — a 167 percent increase over the last five years.
The surge is attributed to the ongoing border crisis that saw over six million asylum seekers and other migrants released from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody and listed on the “non-detained docket” by the conclusion of fiscal year 2023 on September 30. Department of Homeland Security documents sent to Congress anticipate a further increase to the aforementioned eight million by October 1.
Among the migrants caught in the backlog limbo, an estimated 2 million people — a quarter of the total number — are either slated for deportation or facing criminal charges, while others are awaiting final decisions on their asylum applications.
In December 2023 alone, over 302,000 migrants attempted illegal entry into the U.S., marking an all-time high for a single month and the first time the number surpassed 300,000.
The Biden regime faces continued criticism for its mishandling of the ongoing border crisis, which some argue the government has intentionally exacerbated. In February, it was revealed that most of the jobs’ gains’ under President Biden were the result of migrant labor.

Immigration is now rated the most important problem facing the United States for the first time since 2019 and only the fourth time since Gallup began polling the public on the issue in 1981.
In January, immigration was rated as America’s second-most pressing issue, named by 20 percent of poll respondents against 21 who identified “Government” as the country’s top problem. Both would have rated behind inflation, at 13 percent, and the “economy in general,” at 12 percent, if they were combined.
February polling saw immigration surge into a clear first place, ahead of “Government” at 28 percent to 20 percent and well ahead of inflation and the economy in general, at 11 and 12 percent, even when combined.
Gallup also found an absolute majority of Americans, 55 percent, now say “large numbers of immigrants entering the United States illegally” are a “critical threat” to the United States — a record high, five points clear of the previous record set in 2004.
A further 31 percent said illegal immigration is a significant threat, against just 14 percent who said it is not a significant threat at all.
Even among Democrats, who are far less concerned by illegal immigration than Republicans, the share of poll respondents describing it as a critical threat has risen from 20 percent in 2023 to 29 percent.
This may be a consequence of the southern border crisis beginning to shift northward, with illegal aliens arriving in Democrat strongholds such as New York City and Chicago in large numbers, draining public resources and sometimes involving themselves in high-profile crimes.

“We have a new category of crime, it’s called migrant crime, and it’s going to be worse than any other form of crime,” Donald Trump warned during his latest town hall.
Last month, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested 171illegal aliens over the course of a two-week operation, convicted or charged with crimes including first-degree murder and child rape, indicating the former president is right to suggest mass migration is increasing crime in the United States.
Often, migrant crime can fly under the radar. Sometimes, this is because it is confined to local and regional news and does not reach a broad audience; sometimes, this is because media outlets consciously choose not to report a suspect’s immigration background and will describe an illegal alien based in Columbus, Ohio, as simply a “Columbus man.”
This does not mean migrant crime is not happening, however. Here are some examples from reports published the last week:
BLOOD ON THEIR HANDS.
The most-reported migrant crime of recent days is the murder of 22-year-old Laken Riley in Georgia. The suspect in the nursing student’s killing is Jose Antonio Ibarra, a 26-year-old illegal alien from Venezuela. He crossed the border at El Paso, Texas, was briefly detained by officials, and then, like countless others, released into the country with no meaningful oversight.
Georgia’s Mike Collins (R-10) is in no doubt about who is responsible for this deadly carelessness: “The blood of Laken Riley is on the hands of Joe Biden, [Homeland Security Secretary] Alejandro Mayorkas, and the government of Athens-Clarke County.”
STABBED IN TIMES SQUARE.
Times Square, the scene of several altercations involving migrants in recent weeks, including a high-profile attack on police officers, saw another on Thursday.
During a brawl reportedly involving “dozens” of people, ending with a 17-year-old boy being stabbed in the lower back.
“I saw someone running… and there was blood coming from his back, coming from everywhere,” said one eyewitness.
An unnamed 22-year-old and three migrant teenagers were arrested following the attack.
BITING THE HAND THAT FEEDS.
Still in New York City, migrants Dugleidy Gonzalez-Riera, 28, Yefferson Prieto-Galviz, 23, and Morelis Blanco-Cineros, 41, were arrested for stealing “clothing, shoes and fragrances” worth over $5,300 from a string of retail locations.
The trio, who initially gave false names to police, were also found to be in possession of drugs and drug paraphernalia, and the car they were driving had bogus license plates.
The migrants carried out their crimes while living in the Roosevelt Hotel at taxpayers’ expense.
MOB MENTALITY.
Randall’s Island, which hosts a tent city shelter for migrants, almost descended into riot earlier in the week as police officers attempted to arrest a migrant vigorously resisting arrest.
Fellow migrants grew restive, first heckling the officers and then pelting them with water bottles, backpacks, and other makeshift missiles in an incident captured on video.

One of the saddest incidents in recent days involved the death of a 10-year-old boy, Alex Wise, in Texas.
Rogelio Ortiz, 50, who was in the United States despite having been removed from the country on six previous occasions, has been charged with mowing the boy down in a hit-and-run.
Ortiz also faces charges for driving while intoxicated.
SAFETY LAST.
An illegal alien from Guatemala, charged with molesting a child, has been released by a judge in Rhode Island despite being wanted by immigration authorities.
State Attorney General Peter Neronha expressed fury at the situation, as his office had “argued that the court should order the defendant held without bail on the grounds that he posed a danger to the community and was a flight risk.”
ICE confirmed the alleged pedophile reached the U.S. interior “without being inspected, admitted or paroled by an immigration official” — a reminder that the migrant “encounters” logged at the southern and northern borders are just the tip of the iceberg in terms of illegal entries.
THE CHICAGO STRANGLERS.
A final example, Venezuelan migrants Fernando Loyo-Rodriguez, 22, Wilker Gutierrez Sierra, 21, Carlos Carreno-Carreno, 20, and Yonnier Guasamucare Garcia, 18, were arrested in Chicago for attacking a 49-year-old man on a Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) train,
The attack did not take place in the very early or very late hours, but at 4:30 p.m., and saw the victim beaten, strangled to the point of unconsciousness, and robbed.
Like some of the other migrants on this list, the suspects are all confirmed to have been “staying in area shelters” on the taxpayers’ dime.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has filed a lawsuit against Catholic NGO Annunciation House, seeking revocation of its registration. Paxton alleges the non-profit, operational since the 1980s, has been encouraging illegal immigration and hosting illegal immigrants in a “stash house.” As per their website, Annunciation House, based in El Paso, Texas, offers “hospitality to migrants, immigrants, and refugees,” with its volunteers living within the same facilities as their guests, predominantly from Mexico and Central America.
The lawsuit accuses Annunciation House of “openly and flagrantly violating many provisions of law in a systemic fashion.” These purported violations include providing shelter to illegal immigrants who have evaded law enforcement and engaging in human smuggling operations. Paxton’s office previously requested records from the organization to assess potential breaches of federal law. Subsequently, Annunciation House filed a counter-suit against the Attorney General’s office, alleging that the demands for records infringe on their “constitutional rights of association” due to their limited staff.
The lawsuit comes amidst an ongoing battle between Texas, the federal government, and NGOs concerning border security and support for migrants and illegal immigrants. Texas has made significant efforts to secure the border while the federal government continues to seek assistance and support from NGOs involved in trafficking illegal aliens.
Annunciation House claims they follow the “Gospel mandate to welcome the stranger,” likening their work to schools enrolling migrant children and religious institutions welcoming migrant families. Fiscal year 2023 saw a record number of 2.4 million migrant encounters. The first quarter of fiscal year 2024 alone saw one million encounters.

Senator Rick Scott (R-Fla) has written to Vice President Kamala Harris inviting her to preside over the Senate trial of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, whom the House of Representatives impeached for having “willfully and systematically refused to comply with Federal immigration laws” and “breached the public trust.”
Scott noted that while Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer wants President Pro Tempore Patty Murray to preside over the Cuba-born Homeland Security Secretarty’s trial, it would be constitutionally proper for Harris to do so in her official role as President of the Senate.
Scott further noted that Joe Biden appointed Harris as his “border czar” in 2021, so she should be “keenly interested in learning whether a high-ranking member of your administration” is one of the “root causes” of the border crisis she promised to tackle.
“Our states and cities face an ongoing and widespread crisis due to the flood of illegal immigrants streaming across our southern and northern borders and moving freely within the interior of the homeland. As the President of the Senate, you are the appropriate constitutional presiding officer to oversee the impeachment trial,” Scott concluded.

Projections suggest over 5,400 police officers were injured by suspects in New York City in 2023, as the Big Apple remains in the grip of a disorderlymigrant crisis.
The number of officers injured by suspects in 2022 stood at 4,724, a 20 percent increase on the 2021 figure of 3,933. Full figures for 2023 have not been released, but 4,077 officers had been injured after just nine months, with projections indicating the total for the year would have been around 5,436.
“Well over 5,000 cops were attacked and injured last year — that’s not only a record, it’s a full-blown epidemic,” said Patrick Hendry, President of the Police Benevolent Association.
“The vicious attacks on police officers we’ve seen recently didn’t come out of nowhere. This dangerous environment has been building for years,” he continued. “It’s not going to get better until those who attack police officers are consistently prosecuted and kept in jail. And that won’t happen unless New Yorkers keep speaking up to demand an end to the chaos.”
News of the new statistics follows a high-profile attack on two police officers by a migrant gang in Times Square. Four suspects in the incident, which saw the officers repeatedly kicked in the head while on the ground, were arrested shortly afterward, and another the following day.
All turned out to be asylum seekers, and four of them were released without bail within hours of their detention, thanks to Democrat reforms. Most of them promptly absconded, sparking a nationwide manhunt.
NEW: Migrant mob beats NYPD officers near Times Square, released days later without bail according to the New York Post.
It's almost as if New York City is *encouraging* people to beat up their officers.

Virginia Democrats are pushing legislation extending “state-funded comprehensive health care coverage” to illegal aliens under 19 years of age who are not already covered by a health plan or insurance.
The so-called ‘Cover All Kids’ bill, complains Republican State Senator Glen Sturtevant, will “undermine legal immigration and incentivize illegal immigration,” coming alongside similar proposals to “grant illegal immigrants driver’s licenses.” He estimated the cost to Virginia taxpayers from the healthcare bill at over $100 million.
“These bad policies jeopardize not just Virginia’s healthcare system but create perverse incentives that illegal immigrants will see as a green light to travel to Virginia for free schooling, driver’s licenses, and now, free healthcare,” Sturtevant warned, comparing the Democrat agenda to the “sanctuary” policies which have seen cities like New York and Chicago become magnets for illegal aliens, incurring huge costs.
Similar “perverse incentives” have been seen in Massachusetts, where state ‘right to shelter’ laws have seen migrants crowd into hotels across the country at taxpayers’ expense. Whistleblowers say the scheme is running up enormous costs, with the migrants given “free diapers, wipes, toiletries, free tablets and phones, free English lessons, state caseworkers making sure all entitlements are taken, free Uber and Lyft rides, [and] free bus passes,” among a host of other benefits.
They are also said to be eating up first responder resources, with police and firefighters attending migrant hotels to deal with “fights, guns, drugs, [and] overdoses” on a daily basis.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has logged one million encounters with illegal aliens since October 1st, the beginning of fiscal year 2024.
Sources say this is the earliest in the fiscal year the U.S. has ever hit one million migrant encounters, with a little under 910,000 encounters logged over the same period in the previous fiscal year.
Donald Trump argues the illegal immigration crisis and associated drug trafficking crisis are “poisoning the blood” of the country and require drastic action. A bill ostensibly aimed at curbing border crossings, negotiated in the Democrat-led Senate and endorsed by the Joe Biden regime, appears to be dead on arrival, however.
Trump and House Republicans, including Speaker Mike Johnson, say the bill, which allocates far more funding to the Ukrainian military than the border, could actually increase immigration by expanding visas, work authorization for asylum seekers, and curbs on emergency declarations at the border.
