Dear readers, I planned to write
about the fact that the Biden/Harris
administration’s latest move to cre
ate more replacement voters from the
millions of illegal aliens they have im
ported into the remains of our repub
lic. But my friend Joe Guzzardi has al
ready written a very informative piece
on the “parole” scam that is scheduled
to become effective Aug. 19.
The below is published with permis
sion from Joe’s Substack.
Joe Guzzardi
On June 18, President Joe Biden
announced a new program that will
allow certain spouses of United States
citizens to apply for the Department of
Homeland Security’s “parole-in-place.”
This program will allow between
500,000 and 1.2 million illegal aliens
who have been continuously present
in the U.S. for ten years to receive
work permits, apply for lawful per
manent resident status (LPR), more
commonly referred to as a green card,
which will put them on a citizenship
path.
Under this process, approximately
50,000 noncitizen children of these
spouses are estimated to be eligible to
seek parole. Officially called Parole-
in-Place for Certain Noncitizen Spous
es and Stepchildren of U.S. Citizens,
starting on August 19, illegal alien
spouses can begin applying for the
Biden-Harris Administration’s unlaw
ful program, an amnesty by any other
name.
The latest Biden-Harris scheme is
another blatant Immigration and Na
tionality Act violation. Section 212(d)
(5) of the INA permits certain aliens
to enter on a case-by-case basis—i.e.
be paroled—for urgent humanitar
ian needs and for brief time peri
ods. Biden-Harris have consistently
abused parole, granting it en masse to
inadmissible illegal aliens and are now
attempting to reward already present
illegal aliens with legal status.
Under current law, illegal aliens
married to U.S. citizens may apply for
lawful permanent residence. However,
they must first depart the U.S. and ap
ply from abroad. The Department of
Homeland Security, unsurprisingly,
endorsed the program as “consistent
with the Biden-Harris administra
tion’s commitment to keep families
together.”
On its website, DHS claimed that
“these families live in fear and face
deep uncertainty about their future.”
The truth is, however, that spou
sal deportations are highly unlikely,
“these families live in fear and face
deep uncertainty about their future.”
DHS has given illegal aliens a heads
up to gather their paperwork in order
to submit their parole-in-place docu
ments on a timely basis. Applications
will be accepted beginning August 19.
But legislators who oppose parole-
in place insist that not only has the
Biden-Harris administration already
abused parole, their newly proposed
program will lead not only to work
authorization and amnesty for ille
gal aliens who don’t deserve those re
wards but will also create a new wave
of marriage fraud.
The lawmakers noted that “Since
the criminal mechanisms for large
scale marriage fraud for illegal aliens
already exist, we are greatly concerned
that the announced plans to parole cer
tain aliens based on marriage status to
American citizens will only exacerbate
the current problem with detecting
fraudulent marriages.”
A1 Qaeda and Hezbollah members
have used marriage fraud to allow
their members to enter the U.S. un
der the guise of legitimacy. Last year,
Alexei Saab, aka Ali Hassan Saab, 46,
of Morristown, New Jersey was sen
tenced to 12 years in prison followed
by three years of supervised release
for receiving military-type training
from Hezbollah, committing marriage
fraud, and making false statements,
according to the Justice Department.
The 9/11 Commission reported that
several of the terrorists involved in
the 1993 World Trade Center bombing
were in the U.S. because they obtained
legal status through marriage to an
American citizen.
The 9/11 and Terrorist Travel report
cited a U.S. Government intelligence
analysis which found that Abu Zubay-
dah, who was arrested in Pakistan in
March 2002 and held in Guantanamo
Bay, “some of the A1 Qaeda operatives
married American women to obtain
U.S. visas.”
The report also stated that Khalid
Sheikh Mohammed, 9/1 l’s principal
architect, “believed it [marriage fraud]
was a fantastic mechanism for opera
tives to acquire valid documents.”
Marriage fraud also enabled the
San Bernardino massacre perpetrated
by Syed Farook, a citizen of Pakistani
origins, and his Pakistani fiancee,
Tashfeen Malik. The pair shot to death
14 and wounded 21 others while the
victims were celebrating Christmas at
a San Bernadino County employees’
party.
Count the ways that parole-in-place
is another slap in the face to U.S. citi
zens. In no particular order, the pro
gram does nothing to stop the border
hemorrhaging while, at the same time,
sends another worldwide welcoming
message to prospective border cross-
ers, circumvents Congress, adds more
prospective employees to a labor mar
ket already diluted with foreign-born
workers, and heaps generous, taxpay
er funded affirmative benefits like So
cial Security and Obamacare on illegal
aliens not entitled to receive them.
The Center for Immigration Stud
ies Resident Fellow in Law and Policy
and former immigration judge Arthur
R. Andrew estimates that the Biden-
Harris administration has paroled
more than 1.5 million illegal aliens
including Ukrainians, Afghans, Cu
bans, Haitians, Venezuelans, and
Nicaraguans.
Another grave danger to U.S. sover
eignty: if Biden can make up his own
immigration laws and put them into
effect without congressional approval,
nothing will stop him from creating
more parole programs until every cat
egory of illegal immigrant will receive
amnesty.
