The rest were processed under Title 8 and most of those were released into the U.S., writes conncarroll.
According to Politico, no less than six sources have seen Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Chris Magnus “fall asleep during multiple meetings, including one earlier this year on how to handle the current swell of Venezuelans crossing the border.” Magnus says that he does experience “brief periods of tiredness” as a side effect of his multiple sclerosis. Weird that this fact never came up in his Senate confirmation hearing.
This is true. As head of CBP, Magnus has no power to set the immigration policies of the Biden administration. All he can do is enforce what Biden tells him to implement. And right now, it is Biden’s policy to release immigrants arrested for illegally crossing the southern border into the U.S. as quickly as possible. These migrants, assuming they make an asylum claim which will take years for the bureaucracy to process, can then go wherever they want in the U.S.
As long as it is the policy of the Biden administration to release as many illegal migrants into the country as fast as possible, hundreds of thousands will keep coming every month.
