Shock: CBP secretly flew 320,000 'inadmissible' immigrants into dozens of U.S. cities

The Biden administration has secretly flown hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants from airports  in Latin American to 43 different U.S. cities, according to a new report published by The Washington Examiner.

A March 4 report published by longtime D.C. journalist Paul Bedard reveals that while the administration has continued to “blame the growing big-city migrant crisis on Texas and its program of busing illegal immigrants north” the truth has deeper layers.

The clandestine program reportedly involved at least 320,000 immigrants, which the administration admits would otherwise “inadmissible” immigrants, a number Bedard says is “far more” than previously reported.

The administration has withheld information on which 43 airports it has flown the large number of migrants to, despite an outstanding Freedom of Information Act lawsuit from the Center for Immigration Studies.

“While large immigrant-receiving cities and media lay blame for the influx on Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott’s busing program, CBP has withheld from the Center — and apparently will not disclose — the names of the 43 U.S. airports that have received 320,000 inadmissible aliens from January through December 2023, nor the foreign airports from which they departed,” a CIS report reads.

According to the report, the Biden administration is purportedly keeping the identity of the cities under lock and key because it is concerned “bad actors” might “undermine law enforcement efforts to ‘secure the United States border’ if they knew the volume of CBP One traffic processed at each port of entry,” CIA reported, citing an email it received.

The program, Bedard writes, purportedly allows illegal immigrants gain access to the U.S. without having to travel through Mexico.

“The program at the center of the FOIA litigation is perhaps the most enigmatic and least-known of the Biden administration’s uses of the CBP One cellphone scheduling app, even though it is responsible for almost invisibly importing by air 320,000 aliens with no legal right to enter the United States since it got underway in late 2022,” said Todd Bensman, the CIA analyst who wrote the report.

“Under these legally dubious parole programs, aliens who cannot legally enter the country use the CBP One app to apply for travel authorization and temporary humanitarian release from those airports. The parole program allows for two-year periods of legal status during which adults are eligible for work authorization,” he explained.
