Trump immigration officials still struggling with Biden’s legacy
By Byron York
TRUMP IMMIGRATION OFFICIALS STILL STRUGGLING WITH BIDEN’S LEGACY. Trump administration immigration authorities not only have to contend with violent attacks, rioters, angry activists, and others trying to obstruct enforcement of federal immigration law. They also have to deal with the obstacles former President Joe Biden left in their path.
You’ve seen videos of resistance to Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents doing their jobs. Just yesterday, the Democratic mayor of Chicago, Brandon Johnson, declared the city an “ICE-free zone.” Gov. JB Pritzker (D-IL), Johnson’s ally in the fight against enforcing federal immigration law, referred to federal immigration agents as Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s “thugs.”
So the Trump administration has an uphill climb just trying to enforce the laws of the United States. But it also has to deal with the aftermath of Biden’s strategy not only to allow illegal border crossers to stay in the U.S. but to indiscriminately award them some measure of protection from deportation.
One way Biden did that was by abusing what is called “parole.” Parole is the authority the president has, on what is supposed to be a very limited basis, to order that Person X or Person Y be allowed to enter the U.S., regardless of their legal qualifications for entry.
