Border Patrol memo reveals the shocking truth of what is REALLY happening with migrants despite Biden’s executive order
An internal memo circulating among Border Patrol agents directs those in the San Diego sector to release single adults from all but six countries into the U.S.
The memo, obtained by the Washington Examiner, was distributed after President Joe Biden’s executive order went into effect last week, which in theory seeks to ban most illegal immigrants from using the asylum application.
Anna Giaritelli, who first reported on the details of the memo, said the document directed officials to process all single adults from the Eastern Hemisphere through a process called Notice to Appear/release on own Recognizance, with the exception of those from six selected countries: Russia, Georgia, Uzbekistan. , Tajikistan, Moldova and Kyrgyzstan.
Citizens of all other Eastern Hemisphere countries, other than those six, who attempt to illegally cross the U.S. border into the San Diego sector will enter the country freely, according to the memo.
The president announced last week, while blaming Republicans in Congress, that he was “using the executive authorities available to me as president to single-handedly do what I can to address the border.”

It will take some time to implement this order, CBP officials say. The agency, along with all of DHS, continues to engage with uncooperative countries in the Eastern Hemisphere, some of which refuse to take back their citizens when the US tries to deport them.
Fox News’ Bill Melugin reported that the shocking memo only applies to the San Diego sector because of the specific variety of civilians officers encounter there.
CBP officials said that even if the Eastern Hemisphere migrants are released into the country without any conditions attached to their release, they would not be eligible for asylum.
Last week, DHS officials also acknowledged that removing illegal migrants from some countries in the Eastern Hemisphere is difficult, but they are actively pursuing cooperation with some countries, including China.
There are a significant number of countries that the U.S. has determined are unwilling to cooperate with the U.S. deportation system and will refuse to accept flights filled with their returned citizens.

While the San Diego sector of the U.S.-Mexico border receives a high proportion of illegal arrivals from uncooperative Eastern Hemisphere countries, most illegal entrants still come from Western Hemisphere countries that cooperate with U.S.-led accelerated removal plans.
But until these select Eastern Hemisphere countries find reason to work together, officials say the executive order will do little to help push illegal migrants out of that particular corner of the world.
San Diego, like other major border cities, receives hundreds, if not thousands, of migrants every day. Photos and videos show the constant stream of migrants being dropped off at commuter stations in the Southern California city.
Biden’s much-touted executive order will temporarily suspend the entry of illegal migrants across the southern border, only after the number of average border encounters in a day reaches 2,500 for seven days in a row.
DHS and DOJ simultaneously introduced stricter standards for asylum applications.

But Biden’s rule will not apply to illegal immigrants who fall into categories as unaccompanied children, or to those assessed as “victims of serious forms of human trafficking.”
Those who cross illegally and have scheduled an appointment via the CBP One app are also not held to the standards of the administrative decision.
Another exception is based on those whose set of circumstances, “including consideration of significant law enforcement, officer and public safety, pressing humanitarian and public health interests that warrant entry of non-citizens.”
