DHS: Trump Admin Revoked Immigration Status Of 2.2 Million Illegals:
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced Thursday that it has revoked or terminated the immigration status of about 2.2 million illegals since President Donald Trump came into office, setting them up for removal from the United States.
In doing so, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) ended categorical parole programs, which the Biden administration used to offer blanket legal status to millions of migrants who otherwise would have been illegal border crossers. The Trump administration also reformed Temporary Protected Status (TPS), infamously abused by successive American governments to keep foreign populations of Somalians, Haitians, and others in the country in perpetuity, so that it is “once again truly temporary.”
“Those who abuse or flagrantly disregard our immigration system are now on notice that these violations of law will not be tolerated or overlooked,” DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin said. “Securing our border was only the beginning. We are restoring integrity to the entire immigration system and putting the safety of our American citizens first.”
DHS announced Friday morning that it had rounded up 4,170 illegal aliens in an 11-day operation in Texas, ostensibly all of whom will be removed from the country.
USCIS is responsible for reviewing and issuing work permits, green cards, and other types of statuses that allow foreigners to legally stay in the country for a period of time. During the Biden administration, this review was essentially turned into one of the final steps in an international human trafficking operation to bring as many illegals into the country as possible and make them legally untouchable.
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) did the same thing in its Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR), as The Federalist reported. Current ORR Senior Advisor John Fabbricatore said that under the Biden administration that office acted as the endpoint of a “smuggling operation” in which nearly half a million Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) went missing. --->READ MORE HERE
Trump Admin Hits Historic Milestone In Immigration Crackdown:
"We are restoring integrity to the entire immigration system and putting the safety of our American citizens first."
The Trump administration hit a major milestone in its immigration enforcement effort, with a top federal immigration agency taking actions to strip the status of millions of illegal immigrants since inauguration day, The Daily Wire has learned.
Since President Donald Trump’s second inauguration, United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has worked to revoke or terminate the status of roughly 2.2 million illegal immigrants, the Department of Homeland Security told The Daily Wire. The number of actions taken by USCIS under Trump is nearly seven times what the Biden administration accomplished in its final two years.
It is not clear whether all 2.2 million illegal immigrants lost their status.
USCIS’s actions include efforts moving to terminate of Temporary Protected Status for more than one million foreign nationals from 13 countries. Some of the the terminations are being held up due to ongoing litigation.
The agency has also placed certain foreigners into removal proceedings by issuing notices to appear in immigration court. Additionally, USCIS ended the automatic extension of work permits for immigrants.
The Trump administration also terminated parole programs, including one created by the Biden administration that allowed roughly 500,000 Cuban, Haitian, Nicaraguan, and Venezuelan migrants to bypass the border and fly directly into the United States.
USCIS is just one agency taking such actions. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), along with the State Department have denied and revoked the status of millions of others.
In a statement shared with The Daily Wire, Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin said the actions are evidence of the president’s promises to tighten restrictions to prevent mass migration. --->READ MORE HERE
