Biden's DHS: ‘No Records' on Over 350K Border Crossers Released into U.S.
[Breitbart] President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is admitting that the agency has “no records” on hundreds of thousands of border crossers released into the United States that it was supposed to be monitoring through its Alternatives to Detention (ATD) program.

In September 2022, the Transactional Research Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) at Syracuse University filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request with DHS officials to secure information about the more than 350,000 border crossers currently enrolled in the ATD program by the Biden administration.

The ATD program allows border crossers who have recently arrived at the U.S.-Mexico border to be released into the nation’s interior while being electronically monitored by DHS. The monitoring can come in the form of ankle bracelets or cellphones that only track location and have facial recognition capabilities.

In response to FOIA request, DHS officials wrote back that the agency has “no records” on the hundreds of thousands of border crossers who have entered the ATD program since Fiscal Year 2019.

DHS previously admitted to providing inaccurate ATD program data for Fiscal Year 2022, forcing TRAC researchers to issue a warning on their page that the number of border crossers enrolled in the program may not be accurate.

The Biden administration has drastically grown the ATD program to now include hundreds of thousands of border crossers who are released into the U.S. interior.

The latest enrollment figures show that nearly 378,000 border crossers are enrolled in the ATD program. Compare that figure to September 2019 when a little more than 83,000 border crossers were enrolled in the program.

In the Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) year-end report for Fiscal Year 2022, agency officials admit to having “significantly expanded ATD enrollment from an average daily population of approximately 23,000 active participants at the end of FY 2014 to 321,000” by last year’s end.

These ATD enrollees represent a fraction of the 4.8 million border crossers and illegal aliens who have either final deportation orders or pending deportation orders but remain living across American communities — including 1.2 million who have been ordered deported by a federal immigration judge.

#1 Of course not. You think they made any record of this to bite them in the ass?

#3 Except Mencken was wrong. The people who supported Biden had a lot more in common with him than with the ordinary working class.

#4 With or without records, we should probably face that fact that these are.... 'Kudzu people.'

#6 Their goal is to turn the entire country into the old Cleveland Stadium on 10 cent beer night. They are fomenting chaos with the purpose of breaking society. A bureaucracy that doesn’t keep records is an impossibility. This is not incompetence. They are facilitating the migration path from Panama.
