Biden’s Secret Allies Facilitate Illegal Immigration Crisis

 As the House begins impeachment proceedings against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas for his failure to do anything about the unprecedented number of illegal crossings at the U.S.-Mexico border, Republicans in Congress should not allow major transportation companies and left-wing special interest groups to escape scrutiny and accountability for their role in facilitating the crisis.

During the holiday travel season, several conservative investigative journalists began sharing videos showing large groups of migrants at airports appearing to bypass security and board planes to various destinations around the country.

One viral video shared on X on December 19 by Ashley St. Clair, a conservative influencer with more than 860,000 followers on the social media platform, seems to show a line of migrants at Phoenix’s Sky Harbor Airport waiting to board a flight. “Entire flight full of migrants being shipped from processing centers on Delta,” St. Clair captioned the post. “Are taxpayer dollars paying for this?”

After St. Clair asked Delta personnel at the airport about the migrants, she reported that “a Delta representative followed me out of the Sky Club and had someone watching me because I asked if the migrants were being flown on my flight from the processing center.”

On the same day, Tayler Hansen of Tencent media reported that illegal migrants were receiving “priority boarding and expedited security” at the Phoenix airport.

Two days later, on December 21, St. Clair posted that she was “in possession of legitimate major airline boarding passes for migrants that quite literally have the name printed as ‘NO NAME GIVEN’” – appearing to confirm that migrants without valid IDs were being shipped from processing centers at the border and allowed to board flights with permission from airlines.

On December 22, Bill Melugin, a national correspondent for Fox News who has been covering the border crisis in-depth throughout Biden’s presidency, shared a photo from Tucson International Airport showing a terminal “full of illegal immigrants released into the US with their DHS paperwork.”

“Airport personnel are directing them into a specific ‘immigration line’ at security while all other passengers go thru regular line,” Melugin wrote. “I likely saw some of these people crossing illegally in Lukeville this week.”

Just a few hours later, independent investigative journalist James O’Keefe, formerly of Project Veritas, reported that migrants were being given temporary identification documents and allowed to board flights “based solely on their word.” As O’Keefe pointed out, “You and I could not travel without showing our ID numerous times and taking off our shoes, but these supposed ‘refugees’ as they’re calling them face none of that security or scrutiny.”

On December 20, O’Keefe also shared a video of an interview with a bus driver at the Phoenix airport who was seen dropping off loads of migrants. The driver stated that he “work[s] for Jet Limousine and take[s] a few trips a day” from the border to the airport – but became noticeably uncomfortable and defensive when O’Keefe questioned him on who was funding the migrant transport operation.

This secretive and seemingly coordinated effort to transport untold numbers of migrants around the country is likely not a new development. Back in 2021, Republicans in Tennessee provided evidence that the Biden administration had chartered planes to ship thousands of migrants to the state in the middle of the night. Similar reports soon emerged from New York as well.

So far, Republicans in Congress have focused most of their attention and inquiries when it comes to the border on members of the Biden administration. Mayorkas is now facing an impeachment battle, and the House GOP has held a number of hearings to question Biden’s top border officials.

But as these recent revelations make clear, Republicans should also consider questioning the heads of major airlines and other transportation companies about their role in facilitating the Biden administration’s schemes. If the federal government is indeed paying airlines to fly people who crossed the border illegally to all corners of the country without any proper documentation or way of tracking them, it would constitute a major scandal that the American people deserve to know about – not to mention a national security threat.

At least one Republican, Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida, has called for such scrutiny on airline executives. In a letter to Delta CEO Ed Bastion, Gaetz demanded answers on how many migrants the company’s planes have transported since Biden took office, as well as any communications from TSA to Delta about what forms of ID are acceptable for undocumented migrants.

Gaetz’s letter also specifically requested information on Delta’s relationship and communications with non-governmental organizations (NGOs) like charities and nonprofits – another major driver of illegal immigration which often escapes scrutiny.

As some conservative outlets have reported, Biden and other Democrat presidents have for years pumped taxpayer dollars into NGOs to effectively fund illegal immigration under the guise of “humanitarian assistance.” After receiving grants from federal agencies like the State Department or Department of Homeland Security, NGOs then use that money to pay for things like maps and food for migrants coming to the United States and then flights and transportation throughout the country once they arrive.

The presidents and executives of these NGOs – many of whom earn salaries of up to half a million dollars per year – have avoided accountability for their role in fueling the country’s border and immigration crisis. American taxpayers deserve to know how much of their hard-earned money is going to these organizations and what exactly it is used for – particularly if those dollars are going toward funding the relocation and resettlement of illegal immigrants in their own communities.

After 2023 was the worst year on record for illegal immigration, and with a major election looming in November, the border crisis is sure to be one of the top stories of the year in 2024. This is the time for congressional Republicans to place pressure on the left’s entire open borders infrastructure, not just Joe Biden and the Democrats enabling it in Washington D.C.
