Biden administration ADMITS illegal migrant secret flying program that has transported over 320,000 has national security ‘vulnerabilities’

The Biden administration has admitted transporting migrants to the US on secret flights, but lawyers for its immigration authorities argue the locations could create “vulnerabilities” to national security.

Customs and Border Protection is refusing to release information about a program that last year secretly chartered flights of thousands of undocumented immigrants from foreign airports directly to U.S. cities.

This means that while record numbers of migrants poured across the southern border last year, the Biden White House also transported them directly into the country, despite them having no legal status.

The use of a cell phone app has enabled the virtually unnoticed air importation of 320,000 aliens without legal rights to enter the United States.

It comes amid controversy over a 2022 transportation program, with the government raising concerns over the use of taxpayer money for overnight flights of migrants across the country.

President Joe Biden expanded the CBP One app to allow aliens to seek asylum from their home countries — then secretly fly them from foreign airports to U.S. airports

Through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit found the Center for Immigration Studies Biden’s CBP approved the secret flights that transported hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants from abroad to at least 43 different U.S. airports from January through December 2023.

The program was part of Biden’s expansion of the CBP One app, which launched early last year.

Migrants, under Biden’s expansion, could apply for asylum through a cellphone app — called CBP One — from their home countries. But the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) notes that transporting these migrants directly to the US is one of the lesser-known uses of this application.

Aliens who cannot legally enter the US use CBP One to apply for travel authorization and temporary humanitarian release from those airports.

Under this parole, migrants can stay in the U.S. for two years without obtaining legal status and become eligible for a work permit in the country in the meantime.

The administration would not reveal which airports the undocumented aliens were transported to, initially citing a “law enforcement exception” in refusing to hand over information.

But new information from the CIS lawsuit reveals that the locations were not made public out of fear that “bad actors” would harm public safety or that the information would create vulnerabilities for law enforcement.

‘(Air)ports of entry, which, if made public, would reveal information about the relative numbers of persons arriving, and thus the resources spent at particular airports, which, alone or in combination with other information, could expose operational vulnerabilities could be exploited by bad actors who change their behavior patterns, adopt new practices, and take other countermeasures,” CBP attorneys wrote in a filing.

The program follows controversy in recent years when Biden secretly chartered flights of migrant minors from the U.S.-Mexico border to other U.S. cities.

They added that this “could therefore undermine CBP’s law enforcement efforts to secure the borders of the United States.”

But Republicans insist the southern border is not secure and are demanding Biden implement stricter protocols between the U.S. and Mexican borders.

CIS notes that the secret flights are “legally questionable” and claims that since CBP will not reveal the locations for fear of “serious” consequences, it is likely not a program that should continue.

Lawyers have also not disclosed the departure locations of foreign airports, making it unclear where these migrants are coming from.

But those eligible for the CBP One applications are citizens of Cuba, Haiti, Venezuela, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Colombia and Ecuador.
