Fact Focus: Claims Biden administration is secretly flying migrants into the country are unfounded​

Of course it was all maga lies. Not shocked.


In his victory speech Tuesday, former president Donald Trump echoed false statements on social media that the Biden administration had secretly flown hundreds of thousands of migrants to the United States.


SAN DIEGO (AP) — In his Super Tuesday victory speech, former President Donald Trump elevated false information that had gone viral on social media, claiming the Biden administration secretly flew hundreds of thousands of migrants into the United States.

Many post sharing the claim referred to a report by the Center for Immigration Studies, a group that advocates for immigration restrictions. It said the administration refused to list individual airports where people arrived under a Biden "parole" program that allows Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans and Venezuelans to stay in the U.S. for two years.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection each month publishes the number of migrants admitted under the program by nationality. This information is available on its website and in press releases. It does not list arriving airports.

Trump said during his speech, "Today it was announced that 325,000 people were flown in from parts unknown - migrants were flown in airplane, not going through borders ... It was unbelievable. I said that must be a mistake. They flew 325,000 migrants. Flew them in over the borders and into our country."

But migrants are not being flown into the U.S. randomly. Under a Biden policy in effect since January 2023, up to 30,000 people from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela can enter the country monthly if they apply online with a financial sponsor and arrive at a specified airport, paying their own way. Biden exercised his "parole" authority, which, under a 1952 law, allows him to admit people "only on a case-by-case basis for urgent humanitarian reasons or significant public benefit."

OP, wishing does not make it true.

Those flights as well as the lateral flights within our country (once they get here) have been going better than a couple of years now.....If memory serves the illegals have 47 destinations within the US to fly into.

We've seen them doing it for years. It's no secret. They just finally admitted to doing what we already knew they were doing.
Do you still wear your mask like a good little Biden supporter?
You must think that Hunter Biden's laptop is still Russian Misinformation as well.
Do you still believe that Trump fought off 6 Secret Service agents to steal the beast so he could get to the Capital and lead the insurrection?

The leftists have even changed the definition of "lateral flights"....Used to be they were flights from one area in US and into mexico to deport them.

Now they are flights within the US to drop off the illegals where they want to go given their 47 choices of airports.

 

[mudwhistle]

It was going on during the Obama admn.

They reported midnight flights into San Diego CA, and thousands of illegals being moved into Chula Vista which is the Southern part of San Diego back in 2010. Obama shipped in thousands of Muslims to help them take Minnesota and send Ilhan Omar to congress. The only reason a nutcase like Reshida Tlahib is in congress is because they packed her district in Michigan with Muslim voters.

Wait I'm confused what's false about the claim, because the last paragraph seems to confirm the claim?

People like Joe is the reason that leadership in nations like Haiti have destroyed it. We have more wealth and safety nets.

It used to be that if a news source didn't report the truth they could be sued for liable or fraud.
But since Obama removed that requirement they can spread as much bull shit they can think of and not have to answer for it.
Journalists lost their jobs in the recent past because they published stories that were false, but now they can lie with impunity and not have to worry about the repercussions.

Bingo
The OP didn't even read their own reference before posting.

I think it is a valid new source but some extremists say the opposite when they get called out on their lies.

Probably not, but more valid than the OP who didn't read the link very well.

Yeah, moving/flying within the country does go on and has been going on for decades, actually.

But this article about Trump's comments, is Trump talking about asylum seekers being flown in to the USA from the seeker's country.

Refugee asylum seekers can fill out an application now for asylum, and if it is approved, then they can fly in to a specific airport of choice near their sponsor, where our agents meet them. They are required on their application, to list a financial sponsor living in the USA in order to be approved... once that is confirmed along with other things on the application....we allow entrance.

This saves us a bundle of money with the financial sponsorship. It also is organized which saves the limited money for border patrol....which can now be used to catch the bad guys, sex and child and drug traffickers, criminals, and the illegals making it across that are not caught...the GET AWAYS.

It's still in its infancy, but eventually any asylum seeker trying to cross without an approved application and not through our port of entries, but crossing outside of the entry ports illegally, will be denied immediately.

I see some of you have difficulty with reading comp.

Trump said during his speech, “Today it was announced that 325,000 people were flown in from parts unknown - migrants were flown in airplane, not going through borders ... It was unbelievable.

They change words and definitions every time the gig is up:

illegal aliens - illegal immigrants - migrants - newcomers

My first comment about the source was based on how republicans were responding to it.
