    Biden/Harris administration ‘super-charged’ migration from Latin America: report

    Over 20,000 migrants have already been approved for resettlement in the US

    Published July 31, 2024 3:10pm EDT

    The Biden/Harris administration has "super-charged" a "Lawful Pathways" program that has helped admit tens of thousands of people from Latin America.

    The Safe Mobility Office Initiative, launched in May 2023 and given expanded capacity this spring, has worked to fly tens of thousands of people to the U.S. through the refugee resettlement process, despite those people being of nationalities that have rarely qualified for refugee status, according to a Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) analysis.

    According to the report, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) personnel and United Nations have set up offices in Ecuador, Colombia, Costa Rica and Guatemala that have granted refugee status to 21,000 people from seven different Latin American countries in the first year of the program, with half of those having already arrived in the country as of May.

    The refugees are being flown to the U.S. from Haiti, Venezuela, Nicaragua, Cuba, Guatemala, Ecuador and Colombia, the report notes, though even greater numbers may have been flown in through June and July after the administration expanded the program to allow for migrants from Honduras and El Salvador.

    The expansion of the program comes despite the U.S. traditionally only granting refugee status to individuals who can credibly claim that they cannot return to their home country out of a "well-founded fear" of persecution on the basis of race, religion, nationality, political opinion or membership in a particular social group, but the CIS analysis argued that many of those coming to the U.S. would more normally be classified as economic migrants.

    The report cites a 2024 Mixed Migration Centre survey of program participants that found 90% indicated they wanted to travel to the U.S. for economic opportunities and higher living standards, not to flee potential persecution.

    The administration has also raised the allotted slots to admit refugees from Latin America, from less than 5,000 when President Biden took office to 50,000 in 2024.

    GOV. GREG ABBOTT SAYS BIDEN EXECUTIVE ORDER MAKING ILLEGAL BORDER CROSSINGS ‘WORSE’: ‘GASLIGHTING’ AMERICANS

    "In the refugee pathway, we aim to resettle between 35,000 and 50,000 individuals in Fiscal Year 2024, an historic and ambitious goal that would amount to an increase in refugee resettlement from the Western Hemisphere of over 450 percent from last year,"  Marta Youth, the principal deputy assistant secretary for the State Department’s Bureau of Population, Refugee and Migration, said in testimony before a congressional committee in March.

    The administration has justified the expansion of the program by arguing that many of the migrants would have used dangerous migration corridors before illegally appearing at the U.S. southern border, a justification some say abuses the U.S. refugee program.

    "We have a visa process so they can safely go to an embassy and safely apply for a visa and safely fly to the U.S.," Lora Ries, director of the Heritage Foundation's Border Security and Immigration Center, told Fox News Digital. "This is to completely abuse and twist the refugee process. It’s abusive and not lawful."

    Ries also argued that the program does not help the source countries of the migration and could be a danger to American citizens, noting that the speed of processing applications raises questions about how well the migrants are vetted.

    "If you just set high numbers and then quickly adjudicate, grant, process, and resettle, then they’re not getting fully vetted," Ries said. "It used to take about a year or a year and a half to get through the entire refugee process."

    But the CIS analysis indicates that the process for some migrants can be completed in a matter of days, something Ries called "ridiculous."

    "That means no vetting is happening," Ries said. "So they have no idea who they’re letting in."

    The White House did not immediately respond to a Fox News Digital request for comment.

    this is GREAT news! These are people who are hungry for the opportunities that America provides. They gonna seek employment in communities taking jobs and filling roles that many people aren't champing at the bit for. They will then earn money and spend it on local businesses in the communities bolstering local economies. 

    More stuff like this please.

    Is Schecky trying to convince us, via Faux News, that a nation of 350,000,000+, the greatest nation the world has ever known, can’t absorb 20,000 “give me your tired, your poor huddled masses,” with a current unemployment rate hovering around 4%? Talk about snowflakes and snowflakery?

    Harris is making headway big time, and I feel very hopeful that she will win, but I have to try not to look at polls because too often they show Trump ahead and I have a hard time with the notion that I live in a country where that is possible.  How IS that possible???

    repubs don’t believe in our justice system and prevented Obama from trying them in NYC, although Darth Cheney’s authorization of torture probably had a lot to do with it seeing how confessions under duress would have been tossed out. So, repubs sold their souls in a fit of rage and revenge and here we are 23 years on and GITMO still open for business.

    For bonus points, do you know who had someone, a terrorist, extraordinarily renditioned, given a fair jury trial, and remains in a US supermax prison to this day? See? It’s possible to have truth, justice and the ‘Murican way. 

    And Dems have to get their house in order or do something about something about their contributions to the current “political climate.”

    From Cox-Richardson letter this evening (see Mickey's post for the who thing:

    When ABC News senior congressional correspondent Rachel Scott began the interview by quoting a number of his racist statements about Black Americans and asking why, given that history, Black voters should trust him, he lost it. “I don’t think I’ve ever been asked a question in such a horrible manner,” he began. “You don’t even say ‘Hello, how are you?’ Are you with ABC? Because I think they’re a fake news network, a terrible network.” He went on to try to dominate Scott, listing the policies he claimed to have put into place, and to attack the people who organized the event before saying, “I have been the best president for the Black population since Abraham Lincoln. That’s my answer….  And for you to start off a question and answer period…in such a hostile manner, I think it’s a disgrace.”


    Cox-Richardson is obviously criticizing Trump here but...  Look, you all know I despise Trump, but I watched that video and I think Scott blew it.  You will rarely hear me say this, but I think Trump made some fair points about the interview process and I think Scott blew it.  Check out the video and, if you can, prove me wrong, please!  But that will be difficult. 
    My sense of civility says, if you invite someone to speak, you introduce properly, and be civil, and not start out attacking.  We don't need this kind of action.  I'm pissed, and I'm disappointed.

    Trump's answers to her questions were, of course, as asinine as ever (actually, he keeps topping himself), and he deserves no slack for that, but dealing with him  should involve some Sun Tzu  Art of War tactics.  Pull him in with some interviewing etiquette and let him fall into his own trap.  You know he will.  If I can figure this out, surely interviewers at that level can.

    Don't fuck this up, people!

    Anyone saying Harris "too left" to win against Trump, you truly have no idea what "left" really means.
    Democrats are the centre-right to the right-wing Republicans..There is no left party in the US.

    She did her job. Softball questions and glad handing aren't what we need to be seeing. Waste of time. Asking him to explain why black voters should believe in him when he's on record saying those exact statements is real journalism. If you're going to be a sexist, racist misogynist, then you might have to answer to it.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    This is a bit of an overstatement. The party has definitely moved more left over the past 15 years. Not a hard left but more progressive than they had been before that. It may seem like a harder shift to some because the republicans have moved hard right. Governing from the center is not a sinful tactic. It forms coalition that’s the most fair to the most amount of people. And right now, it’s politically advantageous. It may not move fast enough, but Americas governance has always moved more progressive. Sadly it’s slow and there are occasional swings backwards.
