Dramatic footage taken recently that showed thousands of migrants crossing the Rio Grande River, and walking into El Paso represents compelling evidence that the Biden administration’s immigration policy is out of control. A massive Border Patrol facility in El Paso erected to ensure immigrants were not detained outside in the elements has blown past its four-digit capacity. Hundreds of people were left to endure near-freezing temperatures, and to sleep on the street with small campfires their only warmth. Since December 12, El Paso border patrol agents have interdicted more than 10,000 aliens, as per data city officials shared.
But the videos tell only a portion of the current immigration muddle. The other part of federal immigration policy plays out behind the scene in the abyss of obscure immigration legislation that gets little media play even though all Americans, especially workers, are directly affected.
In early December, mostly unnoticed, President Biden and his Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas extended Temporary Protected Status (TPS) to about 337,000 aliens from Haiti, Nepal, Sudan, Honduras, Nicaragua, and El Salvador. Originally slated to leave the U.S. on December 31, TPS holders got a re-up from DHS. The agency prolonged their residency period and their work permits until June 20, 2024, a benefit that allows them to compete with Americans in the U.S. labor force. In July, Biden extended TPS for Syrians just as he had done previously for Cameroonians and Venezuelans before that. Again, more work permits all around—granted by executive decree. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services lists 16 nations that have been granted TPS including some countries hostile to the U. S.— Afghanistan, Somalia, Syria, Venezuela and Yemen.
From the macro perspective —the physical immigration component at the open border, and the administrative giveaways from Capitol Hill— working-age migrants are crossing undeterred, and the TPS community is rewarded with employment permission. By the time Biden’s first term ends, millions of foreign nationals will have work permits. Only the smallest fraction of the illegal immigrants “temporarily” protected or the illegal border crossers, many of whom will eventually receive asylum or parole, will return home. Instead, they’ll become a permanent part of the U.S. labor force. Those who don’t received federally authorized employment permits may work in the underground economy, ordered by Mayorkas as off-limits to Immigration and Customs Enforcement that might otherwise begin removal actions.
Rushing to provide work permission on a large scale to the newly U.S. settled worldwide immigrant population is terrible timing, and will have severe long-term labor implications. In addition to the estimated 6.5 million illegal immigrants who will have entered the U.S. during Biden’s four years in the White House, the administration has increased TPS recipients by 500,000.
With the U.S. labor market struggling, adding thousands of work authorized immigrants will make employment conditions tougher for Americans. When the Bureau of Labor Statistics announced that in November the economy created 263,000 jobs, the media was euphoric. But, buried in the news was the telling fact that the labor force participation rate had dropped to 62.1 percent from 63.4 percent nine months ago. The share of people working remains below pandemic levels.
An October Wall Street Journal story reported that 4.5 million Americans are working two jobs to keep apace with inflation. A Prudential Financial Inc. survey that the Journal also published found that 81% of Gen-Z and 77% of millennial workers said they have pursued gig work or are considering extra side work this year “to supplement their income…”
A dramatic influx of work authorized legal and illegal immigrants will exacerbate the problem that 100 million Americans are classified as “not in the labor force.” Moreover, one in six prime working age men, 25-54, has no paid work at all, a condition that economist Nicholas Eberstadt calls the rise of the “non-working class,” and its associated despair, “America’s invisible crisis.”
Biden’s multi-layered assault on U.S. workers—his welcome the world open borders that will include employment authorization and his administratively granted work permission for TPS designees demonstrates his callous disregard for American workers and their families.

Weird, I see the exact opposite. Looks like the policy is running like a well oiled machine.
More people are learning to think in reality every day.
I m making over $15-k a month working part time. I kept hearing other people tell me how much money they can make online so I decided to look into it. Well, it was all true and has totally changed my life.

Of course if they counted their untaxed income they wouldn’t be eligible, but then that would defeat the purpose.
You are jealous of something you don’t want.
Someone has to pay for that you dumbshit. Go to an emergency room and see how clogged up it is and who’s there. It’s the health professionals that are overburdened with all this dumbf*ck. The problems go on and on and on. You commys won’t understand though.
According to Biden it’s only a problem because folks like us keep talking about it.
In other words, it is the official Government position that the solution to illegal immigration is for us to shut up about it and it’ll go away.
I’m still trusting the plan, bruh…warp speed into the great green reset.
For those who have not noticed, life insurance stocks are significantly down, and funeral home stocks are significantly up. At the (unacknowledged) rate the owners are killing us off they need the illegals as replacement wage slaves. Continuing to ramp it up suggests that even more special programs await us.
You will note that life insurance companies are big stock market investors, when they have to make record payouts they are forced to sell.
See, no depop in America.
repop
How nice your fake anonymous accounts gave you 2 upvotes for your lame response.
how long can you keep your fake anonymous shit keep this fakeness up ?
Anyone notice it’s 90% men?
Why, yes. Yes I did notice that. I’ve been noticing it for many years. Luckily for us
Americans“US Citizens”, that disparity of age & sex in favor of healthy military-age males is worse in the UK and EU.So, it could, technically, be worse.
these illegal aliens should be rounded up and dropped from airplanes over their garbage pail countries. they are replacements and mongrelization of america so that the jewcunts can destroy this nation.
No one is having babies. No babies no employees in 15 to 20 years.
I grew up in a family of five. I have three kids.
American women of all colors refuse to have children and this is spreading world wide.
The one exception world wide is -drum roll please- Israel
Israel has their own demo problems with orthodox inbred retards out pacing every other jew type in Israel. This is a good thing.
The article is a bit dated but the projection remains the same. Africa’s population will triple in the next decades. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/africa-population-triple-end-century-202019845.html
Lagos Nigeria is set to pass Mexico City in population. It is Whites/Caucasians that are plummeting in population as a whole and percentage. Add in mulattos, interracial-breeding promotion and the homosexualization of Caucasians and soon the only “whites” left will be the FBI definition which is “non-black hispanic/white”
By design…free the hysterical woman …free the chaos.
And the remaining 55% will be BIPOC.
If they kill the black population off, no shortage of cotton pickers in Sunflower County, MS.
Then they, the “new” Americans will ask for reparations because … Because, you made it “difficult” to get here. Do you have no feeling for the African Americans who still have bull whip marks on their fat asses.
It is a Locust plague.
Myorkas is like the border Walmart greeter. He just waves you in and points you to the stuff you want.
Syria,Suden and Somalia….three of the most corrupt countries on the planet….but probably the folks sneaking in here from there are good folks……
