President Joe Biden has expanded his program to import “migrants” by air.
Now, he’s flying in Africans who filed bogus asylum claims with the Trump administration and were deported.
In this case, the Africans are Cameroonians, one of the many groups to whom Biden has extended “temporary protected status,” a mini-amnesty to keep them in the country indefinitely.
The Program
Citing government documents and officials with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the Washington Free Beacon reported that the program “appears to be a response to a February 2022 Human Rights Watch report about dozens of Cameroonians deported between 2019 and 2021 and then allegedly mistreated by their government.”
About 85 Cameroonians were deported back to where they belong — Cameroon — but Biden and his Homeland Security secretary, unindicted visa fixer Alejandro Mayorkas, want them living here.
The program has “little precedent, both current and former ICE officials say,” the Free Beacon reported:
All of the individuals deported under the previous administration were found not to have valid asylum claims in the United States.
That’s probably because they weren’t valid, given that almost 100 percent of such claims are bogus. As The New American has repeatedly reported, they come to the United States for jobs and free stuff, and 90 percent of asylum claims are bogus. A study from UCLA found that 99 percent are bogus.
The move, the Free Beacon observed, is just the latest example of Biden’s reversing former President Donald Trump’s sound immigration measures.
Jon Feere of the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) told the website that “these are people who have already had their cases closed, one way or another, and they’ve been returned home.”
Internal memos reviewed by the Free Beacon show an ICE official working with outside nonprofits to help relocate the Cameroonians. One email from earlier this year reviewed by the Free Beacon shows the director of the Immigrant Rights Clinic at Texas A&M University, Fatma Marouf, informing an ICE official where one migrant will arrive.
In that incident, the migrant arrived at Washington-Dulles airport in Virginia. ICE officials familiar with the program say airports around the country are being used as ports of entry for the Cameroonians in an attempt to keep the public in the dark about the program and avoid concentrating the migrants in a single location.
Marouf did not respond to a request for comment.
Amusingly, the internal memos fret about a “potential lawsuit” from the Africans and sympathetic leftist lawfare outfits.
“These individuals were deported by the order of a court after they were afforded all due process rights,” former ICE chief of staff Tom Blank told the website:
“For DHS to arbitrarily reverse court orders to satisfy complaints from an activist group makes a joke out of the entire legal immigration process. It looks like outside activist groups now run the DHS immigration process instead of the courts.”
Both current and former ICE officials expressed alarm about whether this program will be a model for others in the future. Should any outside activist group threaten a lawsuit about migrant mistreatment, they said, the Biden administration may choose the path of least resistance and simply return the asylum seekers.
Some 28 Cameroonians, the website reported, will be returned to the United States, “although it is not clear how many have arrived since the program began.”
Temporary Protected Status
The move to import the Africans is no surprise.
In October, Mayorkas extended temporary protected status (TPS) to Cameroonians living in the United States through June 7, 2025. He designated them for TPS in 2022.
The reason, he explained, is that Cameroon is unsafe. War was been ongoing since 2014, and “extraordinary and temporary conditions, including the secessionist crisis, human rights abuses by members of armed groups and forces, food insecurity, spread of disease, and mass displacement continue to prevent Cameroonian nationals (and those who last habitually resided in Cameroon) from returning to Cameroon in safety.”
Why that is a problem Americans must solve with TPS is unclear. But the designation and extension made it possible for 2,090 of the Africans to establish new lives in the United States. That will make deporting them all but impossible, as Cuban immigrant Mayorkas well knows.
Other Flights
Cameroonians aren’t the only Third World habitues who enjoy the many amenities of BidenAir.
As The New American reported in April, citing CIS, Biden has flown in some 400,000 “migrants” to the United States since 2022.
The obvious question is why Biden is so determined to import so many “migrants.” Project Veritas (PV) provided the answer when it released a revealing, undercover interview with State Department officials.
“I wish people knew we were letting in criminals [to the United States] daily,” a State Department official told the PV reporter. And Mexico, he said, is exporting “the worst of the worst” to the United States.
But then he confessed what Biden is up to with the myriad illegal policies he and Mayorkas are using to allow the “migrant” invasion at the southwest border, policies for which the latter was impeached.
“Traditional, standard Americans are not leftists,” the official said. However,
Latin Americans are all leftists. This is just to try and change the demographics [of the United States].
In other words, the “migrants” will one day vote Democrat.
