Insane: Now All the Unvetted Afghans Biden’s Handlers Brought Here Can’t Be Deported

New in PJ Media:

Now we can rest easy. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has announced that Afghan refugees who arrived in the U.S. before last week, specifically March 15, will now have Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for the next 18 months. This means that they cannot be deported, and so no racist, redneck, xenophobic MAGA-hat-wearing yahoos will be able to do anything about Biden’s handlers’ marvelous multicultural initiative until at least 2024. As we must so often ask about Biden projects, once again, what could possibly go wrong?

DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas explained that it was simply a matter of paying back these people who had done so much for us: “This TPS designation will help to protect Afghan nationals who have already been living in the United States from returning to unsafe conditions,” he said. “Under this designation, TPS will also provide additional protections and assurances to trusted partners and vulnerable Afghans who supported the U.S. military, diplomatic, and humanitarian missions in Afghanistan over the last 20 years.”

Now, wait a minute. Mayorkas stated in late September 2021 that 60,000 Afghans had been brought to the United States by that time, including nearly 8,000 who were American citizens or residents of the country, and 1,800 had Special Immigrant Visas (SIV) issued to them for aiding the U.S. military in Afghanistan. What about the rest? Mayorkas explained:

Of the over 60,000 individuals who have been brought into the United States [from Afghanistan]—and I will give you approximate figures and I will verify them, approximately 7 percent have been United States citizens. Approximately 6 percent have been lawful permanent residents. Approximately 3 percent have been individuals who are in receipt of the Special Immigrant Visas. The balance of that population are individuals whose applications have not yet been processed for approval who may qualify as SIVs and have not yet applied, who qualify or would qualify—I should say—as P-1 or P-2 refugees who have been employed by the United States government in Afghanistan and are otherwise vulnerable Afghan nationals, such as journalists, human rights advocates, et cetera.

The upshot of this is that over 80% of the Afghan evacuees were neither American citizens nor SIV holders. So who are they? No one knows. But the point is that they are not the people who “supported the U.S. military, diplomatic, and humanitarian missions in Afghanistan over the last 20 years.” If they had been, they would have had SIVs.

There is more. Read the rest here.
