SANCTUARY NATION: ICE Official Says Biden Has Abolished Agency in All But Name

Biden has implemented a system of open borders.

An anonymous ICE official has confirmed that President Joe Biden has abolished the agency in all but name, speaking to the Washington Post over the weekend. “They’ve abolished ICE without abolishing ICE,” said the senior DHS official. “The pendulum swing is so extreme. It literally feels like we’ve gone from the ability to fully enforce our immigration laws to now being told to enforce nothing.”

Within a week of his inauguration, the new President had ordered ICE to release all illegal aliens from ICE immigration detention facilities. A majority of immigration detainees are convicted felons, some of whom will be released into communities under Biden’s “Sanctuary Country” approach. The immigration jailbreak was initially walked back following a bombshell report from Fox News’ Tucker Carlson on the amnesty measure, but Biden has rushed to implement other open borders measures in its stead. The jailbreak measure was expected to release as many as 12,000 violent offenders into American communities- every month.

It’s expected that Biden will direct ICE towards customs duties and a handful of deportations of the most violent felons, effectively neutering immigration enforcement. Customs and Border Patrol officials have reported an onslaught of illegal immigration at the southern border, with illegals arriving from uncommon nations with the (accurate) impression they’ll be granted full amnesty and welfare under the Biden government. The overflow of illegal migration has filled CBP detention facilities, forcing Border Patrol to simply release illegals they detain at the border.

CBP has reported arresting as many as 3,000 aliens per day, a stark increase from the border policies of the Trump administration. The Biden administration has begun an effort to cease use of the term ‘illegal alien’ in US law, instead recognizing those that infiltrate the borders illegally as...

Video: Tucker Blasts Biden Waving COVID Tests For Illegals Released Into US

“This isn’t a policy. It’s an act of aggression”

Tucker Carlson blasted the Biden Administration Monday for mandating COVID tests for anyone entering America, EXCEPT for illegal aliens.

Carlson labelled the policy an ‘act of aggression’, and accused Biden of ‘punishing’ Americans by releasing migrants into the country without testing them.

“Tonight we learned that the Joe Biden administration is releasing thousands of foreign nationals living here illegally into American neighborhoods without bothering to test them for the coronavirus,” Carlson announced.

Tucker noted that the White House Press Secretary couldn’t answer basic questions about the policy last week, before citing warnings about the policy by both Brandon Judd, president of the National Border Patrol Council, as well as Leon Wilmos, the sheriff of Yuma County, Arizona.

The New York Times, Reuters and others reported last week on the CBP releasing hundreds of migrants into Texas and California owing to ‘overflow facilities’ already being full.

Less than one month into Biden’s Presidency, there is already a new ‘border crisis’, according to officials, with facilities unable to hold or test migrants.

“When we release people that break our laws without bothering to test them for the virus – the same virus we’ve used as a pretext for wrecking your...

Biden’s CIA pick, William Burns, leads a think tank with close ties to China

William J. Burns, the nominee for CIA director, is the president of a prominent think tank that has received as much as $2 million in recent years from a Chinese businessman and a think tank with links to the Chinese Communist Party.
As part of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace’s work with China, Burns invited a group of congressional staffers on a junket to China in 2019 where they met with a professor who works for the Chinese Communist Party’s central committee. They also met with the president of a prominent Chinese front group.
Zhang Yichen, a Carnegie board member and prominent donor, is a member of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, which advises the Chinese Communist Party on policy issues.

William J. Burns, who is President Joe Biden’s nominee for director of the CIA, is president of a think tank that has received up to $2 million from a Chinese businessman as well as from a think tank with close ties to the Chinese Communist Party.

As president of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, Burns also invited nearly a dozen congressional staffers to attend a junket to China, where they met with a communist party operative and a president of a Chinese front group.

Burns, who was paid $540,580 last year as president of Carnegie, will appear before the Senate Intelligence Committee for a confirmation hearing likely to be held this month. He has been president of Carnegie since March 2015.

During Burns’ tenure at Carnegie, a businessman named Zhang Yichen joined the think tank’s board of trustees.

“We are very fortunate to have Zhang Yichen on our board,” Burns, a former deputy secretary of state, said in a statement in October 2016. “I look forward to working with him to make Carnegie an even finer institution.”

Zhang, the CEO of CITIC Consulting, a China-based investment firm, donated between $500,000 and $999,999 to Carnegie from July 1, 2017, through June 30, 2018, according to Carnegie’s website. He gave between $250,000 and $549,999 in the 2020 fiscal year, according to Carnegie’s 2020 annual report.

Zhang is a member of two organizations linked to the Chinese Communist Party, according to his biography at CITIC Capital: the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) and the Center for China and Globalization.

CPPCC is an advisory group for the Chinese Communist Party that is affiliated with China’s united front system, which promotes Chinese government...

'This was already a Portlandia episode'

Gun control activist David Hogg announced a new member of the advisory board for his pillow company meant to compete with Mike Lindell's MyPillow empire, but his critics responded with mockery and laughter on social media.

Hogg, 20, announced Thursday that he would start a pillow company in order to give those on the left an alternative to the MyPillow offering by Lindell, who is a fervent supporter of former President Donald Trump and has funded legal efforts to overturn the election.

On Monday, he announced the first hire for his pillow company, LGBTQ activist Brandon Wolfe.

"I'm thrilled to announce the addition of Brandon Wolf ( @bjoewolf ) to the Pillow Company's activist advisory board. Brandon has years of experience in organizing for gun violence prevention, LGBTQ rights and he's also just an awesome person," tweeted Hogg.
