Shocking: Biden Has Been Flying Illegals Where?

Biden has been playing some very dirty games and he knows it.

Criticism from Texas Republicans has surged against a parole program introduced by the Biden administration for four nationalities, especially as it surfaced that three major destinations for migrants under this initiative are within Texas. Representative Chip Roy, expressing concern, highlighted how this program adds complexity to the already challenging situation at the border, portraying it as a deliberate attempt to overload the system using parole.

According to reports by Fox News, data from January to August 2023 revealed that about 200,000 migrants entered the U.S. through this parole program, with Texas cities such as Austin, Dallas, and Houston ranking among the top destinations, welcoming over 10,000 migrants during this period.

Originally announced in October 2022 for Venezuelans, the program allowed a limited number to enter the U.S. legally provided they hadn’t crossed the border illegally, had a U.S. sponsor, and passed certain vetting processes. Subsequently, in January 2023, it expanded to include Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Cubans, with monthly quotas for entry. This program also grants work permits and a two-year stay authorization.

While Secretary of Homeland Security, Alejandro Mayorkas, defends the program as a safe and organized means of immigration, Republicans argue it violates parole limits set by Congress, which dictate that it should be used sparingly for urgent humanitarian reasons or significant public benefit. This criticism aligns with broader GOP claims that the Biden administration’s policies have exacerbated the ongoing border crisis.

Senator Ted Cruz labeled the influx of migrants facilitated by the program as an “invasion” affecting cities across the nation, with Texas bearing a significant burden. His sentiments were echoed by Senator John Cornyn, who criticized the administration’s use of parole as manipulative.

Representative Roy emphasized the severe impact of the immigration crisis on Texas, suggesting that the parole program would only heighten frustrations among Texans, who perceive it as an additional burden on top of the existing influx of migrants.

In terms of addressing the issue, Roy expressed disillusionment with the federal government’s handling of the crisis, calling for state-level action to secure the border. He emphasized the importance of political change to enable meaningful debates and solutions on border security, hinting at the upcoming elections as an opportunity for change.
