CIS: Federal Govt. Making It Too Easy For Illegals to Enter

[Webster]

American Family News: Just a few questions … then you're free to roam the country

An attorney for an immigration watchdog says the federal government is making it too easy for Chinese illegal aliens to remain in the United States.

The Daily Caller News Foundation has obtained an internal email from a supervisor with the U.S. Customs and Border Enforcement. The email, sent out in April 2023 to about 500 Border Patrol agents, instructed CBP officials to radically reduce the number of interview questions for Chinese migrants apprehended after illegally crossing into the country from roughly 40 to just five "basic questions."

As a result, says the Daily Caller, the scaling back of the vetting process fast-tracked the release of Chinese illegal aliens into the U.S., making it more difficult for agents to identify potential threats to national security. Those who "successfully" pass the five basic questions, says the report, are likely to be "street-released."

Art Arthur, a resident fellow in law and policy at the Center for Immigration Studies, questions the revised approach of vetting.

"We should run the most vigorous background checks against individuals who come from countries of concern or countries that have interests that are inimical to the United States," he tells AFN. "But instead, the Biden administration is doing exactly the opposite. This is a serious national security concern, and the Biden administration is not going to do anything differently unless it's forced to."

And Arthur says China is particularly problematic. "We know that Beijing is in many ways hostile to the United States. It actively seeks to replace the United States as the world's military power," says the CIS fellow. "This is an almost shocking abrogation of the federal government's responsibility to protect the American people and to protect our institutions. This shows that the Biden administration is placing its migrant policies ahead of the national security of the United States."

Arthur says this is a vulnerability that Congress needs to take note of and react to – otherwise, the consequences could be dire.

If China were sending spies to the USA and of course they are, they wouldn't be sending illegal immigrants. They would be sending spies with impeccable paperwork to ensure their chances of remaining in the United States

no reason to repeat myself, i wasn't talking about how many were crossing the border. I was talking about none of them were spies. These are the numbers for illegals. From 2013 to 2022 the average was 1500 Chinese picked up by border patrol. For 2023 it's 31,000 and I'm sure none of them are spies.

You don't know that and I don't know that but its' awful convenient that thousands of military-age Chinese nationals are crossing the US-Mexico border. For whats' its worth, we don't know who or what they are or what might be brewing with them but if they're legitimate migrants, they need to go back to the first safe harbor country they entered and apply for u.S. asylum there.

I have the time so I'm doing a lot of reading about this but I'm not done and I'm also deciding whether to write a novel or not. I can say you are right, some of them could be spies but I won't give the reason yet.
