Biden’s Insane Border Plan Counts On Foreign Adversaries To Rigorously Vet Migrants

For its new border “enforcement” plan, which legalizes migrants before they cross the border and then allows them through official ports of entry, President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) assures that all must first pass “rigorous security vetting” and “security background checks.”

DHS has just added four new nationalities — Cubans, Nicaraguans, Venezuelans, and Haitians — to the already wide range of nationalities allowed for at least the last eight months to cross through land ports of entry, or fly into a U.S. airport, under the “CBP-One” reservation system. The New York Times recently reported 109,000 such entries from May through December 2022. These others include Syrians, Tajikistanis, Russians, Somalis, and Afghans. The newest four nationalities may be the most numerous of those using the CBP-One pre-legalization process, which will allow 360,000 such pre-legalized entries a year.

But it must be pointed out that for supermajorities of the potential 515,000 foreign nationals who have and will use this new ad hoc parallel immigration system in the next year, meeting the program’s No. 1 requirement of “rigorous security vetting” will turn out to be all but impossible.
