NextImg:Biden Quietly Grants Mass Amnesty to 350,000 "Asylum Seekers" Who Do Not Qualify for Asylum of Any Kind

He's protecting Muh Democracy.

While the Biden administration is attempting to look like it's getting tough on the border, behind the scenes it's operating a program of "mass amnesty" for migrants, The Post can reveal.

Data show that since 2022, more than 350,000 asylum cases filed by migrants have been closed by the US government if the applicants don't have a criminal record or are otherwise not deemed a threat to the country.

This means that while the migrants are not granted or denied asylum -- their cases are "terminated without a decision on the merits of their asylum claim" -- they are removed from the legal system and no longer required to check in with authorities.

The move allows them to legally, indefinitely roam the US without fear of deportation, effectively letting them slip through the cracks.

The number of migrant asylum cases being closed before going through the court system has skyrocketed since Biden took office.

"This is just a massive amnesty under the guise of prosecutorial discretion," according to Andrew Arthur, a former immigration judge who works for the Center for Immigration Studies.

"You're basically allowing people who don't have a right to be in the United States to be here indefinitely," he added to The Post.

"Please let everyone know what's really going on," an ICE officer told The Post.

In 2020, during the Trump administration, 48,000 migrants were ordered removed from the US by immigration court judges. Fewer than 20,000 people were granted asylum, and 4,700 people had their cases closed or were otherwise allowed to remain in the country, according to data collected by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse.

In 2022, under Biden, a memo issued by ICE's principal legal adviser, Kerry Doyle, and seen by The Post instructed prosecutors at the agency to allow cases to be dismissed for migrants who aren't deemed national security threats.

That year, 36,000 were ordered removed, 32,000 were awarded asylum, and 102,550 had their cases dismissed or otherwise taken off the books -- 10 times the number in 2014.

In 2023, there were 149,000 cases in this latter category, and so far in financial year 2024 -- which ends Sept. 30 -- the numbers are certain to surpass that, with 114,000 cases closed already.

Since Biden assumed office, 77% of asylum seekers have been allowed to remain in the country, according to TRAC. That equates to 499,000 of the 648,000 who applied for asylum in the US in that time.

The current backlog of asylum cases stands at 3.5 million, and shaving more than 100,000 people a year off it makes the administration look better, sources told The Post.

Once cases are closed, migrants are no longer in "removal proceedings" and subject to deportation -- the government's default position for all migrants admitted at the border.

The migrants are under no obligation to leave the US, and once cases are dismissed, the person is no longer monitored by ICE and required to regularly check in with them, unlike those still pursuing asylum claims.

"If the case gets dismissed, you're basically back to nothing," Washington-based immigration lawyer Hector Quiroga told The Post, clarifying that migrants with dismissed cases can't receive benefits or a work permit.

Quioga said that for clients with "horrible" cases -- ones in which they are unlikely to ultimately prove they need asylum -- "that's better than having a deportation order."

Once a migrant's case is terminated, the person can reapply for asylum or seek other forms of legal status in the US.

These potentially include applying for a family-based visa, employment-based visa or other humanitarian protections such as Temporary Protected Status or Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals "if they meet the eligibility requirements," immigration lawyer Sergio C. Garcia told The Post.

"Migrants whose asylum cases have been dismissed can approach US Citizenship and Immigration Services to explore other legal avenues to remain in the country," he said.

"It's important for them to consult with an immigration attorney to identify the best options available for their specific situation."

ICE officers who spoke with The Post flagged an increase in cases of migrants committing crimes after their asylum cases have been closed. This forces agents to restart removal proceedings, which typically take years.

"If the migrants, [whom] ICE no longer controls or monitors, commit crimes after the dismissal, ICE will have to start all over and issue a new Notice to Appear in court and start the clock all over again," an ICE official told The Post.

"It's starting to increase," a second ICE officer told The Post, pleading for publicity over the issue.

Data compiled by TRAC show an explosion in those who are effectively allowed to remain in the US without going through the asylum process since Biden took office.

A third ICE officer told The Post that it "happens all the time."

Meanwhile, the Biden administration's attempt to tighten things up at the border has included issuing a rule in May that asylum claims must be resolved within 180 days for migrants who list their final destination in the US as Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles or New York City.

The administration is also poised to issue an order to close the border once the number of migrant crossings reaches 4,000 per day, sources told The Post.

In April, US authoriites in the southwest intercepted an average of 5,990 migrants per day, according to US Customs and Border Protection. That figure didn't even include the so-called "gotaways" who escape detection and arrest.

Meanwhile, the New Improved Pandemic 2.0 has just been debuted in Cuba, just in time for the election, and of course Biden will refuse to do as Trump did and invoke the section of the law that allows deportation of all illegals during an epidemic.


This epidemic is not getting the attention it deserves. According to reports from Cienfuegos and Santiago, the infection rate is high and uncontrollable. As one doctor puts it: "When one person in a neighborhood falls ill, the whole neighborhood does, and there is absolutely nothing in the clinics or pharmacies, not even dipyrone to reduce the fever." Vamos bien, si! Requetebien!

Loosely translated from Marti Noticias


There are no adequate hygienic and sanitary conditions to combat the Oropouche fever virus (OROV) in Songo la Maya, in the province of Santiago de Cuba, the epicenter of the outbreak on the island, reported Dr. Roberto Serrano from that area.

The accumulation of garbage dumps and sewage, as well as the lack of resources for fumigation, is a current concern for the residents of La Maya, given the presence of the mosquito Culex quinquefasciatus, which proliferates in any type of water, including sewage, explained Serrano.

The doctor, who is still recovering from the symptoms of this virus, mentioned the extent of the outbreak in his locality: "There are countless febrile cases, patients with high fever, and above all, a severe headache, and pain, especially in the sacro-lumbar area and the muscular part of the back of the lower limbs, along with vomiting, diarrhea, and loss of appetite. It is quite a severe condition, significantly affecting people's health."

"People are collapsing on the street because it is quite strong. I am telling you this because I went through it, I am going through it, as I have almost had the condition for a week, and today I was able to go to work, thank God," he added.

In the case of Cuba, OROV is mainly transmitted through the bite of the mosquito Culex quinquefasciatus, which can also be a vector.
