Source: Rep. Gooden: Illegal immigrant networks funded by Biden administration
WASHINGTON, D.C.- According to Rep. Lance Gooden (R-TX), if voters give the GOP a House majority in this coming November’s election, then GOP legislators will move forward and investigate and expose the illegal immigrant smuggling networks that are allegedly being funding by Biden’s administration.
“Many of these migrants are being aided, in fact, by [U.S.] nonprofits who are using our tax dollars to do the aiding and helping them across, helping them get on airplanes without documentation, helping them to evade court hearing and helping them to burrow into society and evade any questions from law enforcement.”
“The United Nations … is receiving support from the US government, among others. And [it is] helping sponsor these caravans [of migrants], they’re giving them debit cards, providing them with financial assistance throughout their journey to the U.S. border.”
“When the [migrants] get to the border, they try to claim asylum status, which has to be determined through a proper hearing. But, during the time that they are waiting for their trial day, they are aided by these NGOs.”
“You’ve heard me talk about Catholic Charities, Jewish Family Council, [and] the Lutherans [which] are involved.
What they do is they go to the border and take these asylum seekers from [the Department of Homeland Security, DHS]. They’re paid by [DHS] to provide aid.
So, there’s an incentive to bring in more people because the more people that the Catholic Charities [or] the Jewish Family Council bring in, the more money they get from the U.S. government.
It is a way that the administration has helped to aid – and in fact fund – the invasion of our nation.”
“What they’re doing is encouraging human trafficking, they’re emboldening the cartels, and they are making the problem much worse.
I believe it’s criminal … I think that is important to the American people to know that these groups – who in the past have done really great work – are now in cahoots with the government with the United Nations and indirectly with the cartels, and they’re bringing people across our border and shuttling them across the United States.”
“Come January, though, when we are in power, we will do whatever the oversight role of Congress requires to ensure that this administration is held accountable. If they’ve broken the law, whether it’s a secretary or the President himself, if impeachment is the answer, then impeachment will be the action.”
He stated:
“I have full confidence in the Republican majority … to execute the will of the American people and the mandate that I believe they’ll give us in November.”
“If we seize even 5 percent of [of fentanyl pill] what’s coming across the border, we’re lucky. And if there’s nobody there to detect you and apprehend you, the cartels are going to push it through between the ports of entry when they know that there is absolutely no chance that we’re going to apprehend that narcotic.”
“There have been no new operations, policies, or programs put in place since this administration has taken office to help the Border Patrol go after criminal cartels and the profits that they are generating.”
Those profits that Judd alleges the cartels are raking in are shocking. He said:
“We have allowed the criminal cartels to create billions of dollars in revenue at the expense of U.S. citizens who are dying at a record rate in 2021.”
“We go home every single day defeated. We feel like our time is wasted. Our only goal is to protect the citizens of this great nation – we are not allowed to do that at this time.”
“The job has not gotten easier over the last few months, and it was very, very difficult throughout 2021. I know apprehending families and kids is not what you signed up to do.
And now we got a composition that is changing even more with Cubans, Venezuelans, Nicaraguans, and the like, it just gets more difficult…
“I know the policies of this administration are not particularly popular with U.S. Customs and Border Protection, but that’s the reality and let’s see what we can do within that framework.”
