President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has confirmed that the administration this year has allowed nearly 1,000 illegal aliens to use arrest warrants and deportation notices as forms of identification to board domestic commercial flights in the United States.
In January, records from the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) revealed that not only has the Biden administration been flying border crossers and illegal aliens into the U.S. interior but that the individuals are allowed to use arrest warrants and deportation notices as forms of identification to board U.S. flights.
During a hearing on Thursday, Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) had TSA Administrator David Pekoske confirm that nearly 1,000 illegal aliens since the beginning of the year have been allowed to board U.S. flights with arrest warrants and deportation orders as forms of identification.
“How many individuals have presented TSA with arrest warrants or deportation notices that were permitted to travel in this calendar year?” Hawley asked, to which Pekoske responded “Under 1,000 sir.” --->READ MORE HERE

Republican Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley grilled the head of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) Thursday for allowing migrants to use arrest warrants as a form of identification when flying across the country.
The TSA allows migrants to use the warrants as a form of identification while traveling through U.S. airports, according to a letter exclusively obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation in January. Under 1,000 migrants have used the civil arrest warrants or deportation notices as identification at airports, TSA Administrator David Pekoske told Hawley.
“So we aren’t looking at whether a person is legal or illegal in the country,” Pekoske told Hawley at the Senate Homeland Security committee hearing for his re-nomination.
Hawley asked Pekoske for a reason for disregarding one’s legal status when screening migrants through TSA.
“Because our role is to make sure that people that might pose a risk to transportation that’s significant enough to either require enhanced screening or to not allow them to fly,” Pekoske responded. --->READ MORE HEREFollow links below to related stories:
