Want more details on exactly how this new Senate border bill facilitates catch-and-release, empowers Biden's bureaucrats, and will lead to EVEN MORE illegal aliens getting asylum/green cards/path to citizenship?
🧵Here are some points about the new "PROVISIONAL NONCUSTODIAL REMOVAL PROCEEDINGS."
If Mayorkas feels like it, he can send an illegal alien encountered at the border to a new "provisional noncustodial removal proceeding." No real criteria, just if the illegal alien "indicates an INTENTION to apply for a protection determination" or "expresses a credible fear."
If DHS elects this pathway, the illegal alien SHALL BE RELEASED from custody into the United States and enrolled in an "alternatives to detention" program. Better known to immigration enforcement experts as "alternatives to deportation," because no one ever gets deported in the program.
The proceedings are supposed to wrap up, "to the maximum extent practicable," in 90 days. But that's an exception any liberal administration will use in every single case. And mind you, during this time period, the alien(s) are likely relying on taxpayer-funded shelter and services while they are roaming freely throughout the United States.
If you're the illegal alien, don't you worry, your interview won't happen in a place where actual law enforcement officers are located:
If the alien establishes a "positive protection determination outcome," they are then sent to a "protection merits removal proceeding."
If it's negative, then there's a different path (more on that below):
If POSITIVE, the alien SHALL get a work permit:
And the ultra-liberal USCIS asylum officers get the direct authority to grant asylum, withholding, or CAT:
The unlucky few who don't get a positive determination get even more process!
More process!
We could go on and on. But in sum here's what you need to know:
- The bill empowers Biden's liberal asylum officers to shortcut any kind of adversarial process and grant illegal aliens asylum. No cross-examination by an ICE attorney, no evaluation by an independent judge, etc.
- The bill mandates catch-and-release for the aliens subjected to these procedures.
- Aliens in these procedures SHALL get work permits. They will also likely get taxpayer-subsidized shelter and services.
- The Biden Administration WILL use the new procedures to advance their policy goals and continue the invasion. They will grant asylum, creating a pathway to a green card and citizenship for countless tens and hundreds of thousands of aliens each year.
- The new channel puts process on top of process, on top of process. End result = NO ONE IN THESE PROCEEDINGS WILL EVER BE DEPORTED.

The Biden-Harris ATF has reversed its unlawful “zero-tolerance” policy that allowed the agency to revoke federal firearms licenses (FFL) over minor paperwork errors, following AFL and @TPPF’s lawsuit.
/2 Historically, FFL holders were required to “willfully” violate the Gun Control Act (GCA) to lose their licenses.
This required intentional and reckless disregard for the GCA’s requirements in filling out the federal form.

➡️ Notified 249 elected officials in sanctuary jurisdictions across the U.S. of the legal consequences they could face.
➡️ Launched “Sanctuary Strongholds,” an interactive website resource providing insight into sanctuary jurisdictions nationwide and contact information for elected officials violating federal law.
➡️ Filed a Department of Justice Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) petition to increase transparency into crimes committed by illegal aliens against women and children.
➡️ Filed investigative requests with 17 key states and cities across the U.S. to expose the individuals and organizations actively undermining federal immigration enforcement and the rule of law.

A federal court has denied the Stanford Internet Observatory, Atlantic Council, and Aspen Institute’s attempt to dismiss AFL’s class action lawsuit for conspiring with the U.S. government to conduct targeted surveillance and censor conservative political speech.

/3 The lawsuit alleges that these academic institutions, nonprofits, and researchers conspired with the federal government to surveil and censor conservative political speech regarding COVID-19 and elections on social media platforms.
/1🚨 BREAKING: NEW DOCS EXPOSE U.S. GOVERNMENT CENSORSHIP ACTIVITIES
AFL has obtained new documents revealing that the U.S. government weaponized the homeland security apparatus & coordinated with the Censorship Industrial Complex & foreign authorities to censor COVID-19 speech.
/2 Through our litigation against the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), AFL obtained a previously unreleased document titled “COVID-19 Countering Foreign Influence Task Force Reporting and Analysis.”
/3 The internal CISA Countering Foreign Influence Task Force (CFITF) report from 2020 is marked “FOUO//FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY” and states that “online misinformation erode[s] public confidence in yet to be developed COVID-19 vaccine.”
AFL is investigating whether the Loudoun County School Board and Former FBI Deputy Director Andy McCabe played a role in AG Merrick Garland’s October 4 memo mobilizing federal counter-terrorism resources against concerned parents at school board meetings.
