DHS Moving, Releasing Vanloads of Illegal Aliens Away from Border
“Just move those bodies across the country.”
Judicial Watch reports that a private security firm has been contracted by the U. S. government to transfer illegal aliens away from the southern U. S. border and to release them away from the border.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is quietly transporting illegal immigrants from the Mexican border to Phoenix and releasing them without proper processing or issuing court appearance documents, Border Patrol sources tell Judicial Watch. The government classifies them as Other Than Mexican (OTM) and this week around 35 were transferred 116 miles north from Tucson to a Phoenix bus station where they went their separate way. Judicial Watch was present when one of the white vans carrying a group of OTMs arrived at the Phoenix Greyhound station on Buckeye Road [see featured image above].
The OTMs are from Honduras, Colombia, El Salvador and Guatemala and Border Patrol officials say this week’s batch was in custody for a couple of days and ordered to call family members in the U.S. so they could purchase a bus ticket for their upcoming trip from Phoenix. Authorities didn’t bother checking the identity of the U.S. relatives or if they’re in the country legally, according to a Border Patrol official directly involved in the matter. American taxpayers pick up the fare for those who claim to have a “credible fear,” Border Patrol sources told JW. None of the OTMs were issued official court appearance documents, but were told to “promise” they’d show up for a hearing when notified, said federal agents with firsthand knowledge of the operation.
A security company contracted by the U.S. government is driving the OTMs from the Border Patrol’s Tucson Sector where they were in custody to Phoenix, sources said. The firm is called G4S and claims to be the world’s leading security solutions group with operations in more than 100 countries and 610,000 employees. G4S has more than 50,000 employees in the U.S. and its domestic headquarters is in Jupiter, Florida. Judicial Watch is filing a number of public records requests to get more information involving the arrangement between G4S and the government, specifically the transport of illegal immigrants from the Mexican border to other parts of the country. The photo accompanying this story shows the uniformed G4S guard that transported the OTMs this week from Tucson to Phoenix.
This move has outraged border control agents and supervisors on the font lines who state that their orders from DHS are, essentially, “Just move those bodies across the country.”
Judicial Watch continues:
Outraged Border Patrol agents and supervisors on the front lines say illegal immigrants are being released in droves because there’s no room to keep them in detention. “They’re telling us to put them on a bus and let them go,” said one law enforcement official in Arizona. “Just move those bodies across the country.” Officially, DHS denies this is occurring and in fact earlier this year U.S. Customs and Border Protection Commissioner R. Gil Kerlikowske blasted Border Patrol union officials for denouncing this dangerous catch-and-release policy. Kerlikowske’s scolding came in response to the congressional testimony of Bandon Judd, chief of the National Border Patrol Council, the labor union that represents line agents. Judd told lawmakers on the House Judiciary Committee that illegal immigrants without serious criminal convictions can be released immediately and disappear into the shadows. Kerlikowske shot back, telling a separate congressional committee: “I would not stand by if the Border Patrol was — releasing people without going through all of the formalities.”
The border patrol union chief estimates that about 80% of captured illegal aliens are released into the United States.
The Senate Subcommittee on Immigration and the National Interest addressed this issue just a few weeks ago in a hearing called Declining Deportations and Increasing Criminal Alien Releases – The Lawless Immigration Policies of the Obama Administration. Judd, the Border Patrol Union chief, delivered alarming figures at the hearing. He estimated that about 80% of apprehended illegal immigrants are released into the United States. This includes unaccompanied minors who are escorted to their final destination, family units and those who claim to have a credible fear of persecution in their native country. Single males that aren’t actually seen crossing into the U.S. by Border Patrol agents are released if they claim to have been in the country since 2014, Judd added.

Awesome. Just awesome.
Catch and Release. At least the people in areas that Fish and Wildlife is bringing back wolves to can sue.
Repub lawmakers will doubtless take action in 3…2…
Oh. Wait.
Who’s securing the homeland???? This is aiding and abetting a foreign invasion.
I believe good Judge Hanen has added similar comments in some of his rulings.
This administration has been overwhelming the system from the beginning. The more the better, at least in their eyes. That makes it all the more difficult, impractical, and so very expensive to undo.
So, they’re securing the homeland, only it’s not for protection but transformation.
Uncle Sam: doing the illegal alien smuggling criminals won’t do.
The US Government/GOP/Democrats, The worlds largest criminal enterprise.
How can anyone be aware of these reprehensible actions and not be 200% behind defeating Clinton and voting for Trump?
Trump is strongly on record to secure the border and deport illegals.
Clinton is strongly on record supporting and extending Obama’s Amnesty policies.
Muttering about third parties and French journalists does not change the above facts. This is not a hard decision. Stop pretending it is.
Democrat Housing Services?
Consider also diseases that aren’t evident at the time these people are transported. We’ve had an outbreak of measles at an immigrant detention center here in Arizona, and cases of tuberculosis (many of them drug-resistant) are increasing rapidly in certain areas of the country.

Over one-third of the “refugees” in Vermont have TB. But don’t worry, the U.S. taxpayer will be picking up the tab for all the expensive treatment they will need.
Meanwhile, our U.S. veterans are being told the doctor will see them in a year and a half (and then their names are deleted from the computer records).

This is a mentality that believes it’s right to obey only laws it likes. After all, it is bringing the world together as one.
It’s foremost enemies laugh at its weakness, and grow stronger as it gesticulates with intolerance and increasing violence to its perceived adversaries.
The brownshirt population continues to grow….
Where is Squeaker II (Paul Ryan) on this?
Catastrophic Anthropogenic Government Whoring
CAGW is the cause and symptom of anti-native policies in second and third-world nations, Europe, and America, too. It is not limited to illegal immigration, but excessive immigration generally, also reactive and planned parenthood.
Drive them to the lobby of the UN and don’t let the delegates leave without taking one or two
What’s the rest of the story??
The rest of the story probably is that they cannot be detained, since they have applied for asylum, and the people involved are either minors or families that include minors, and there are limits to the ability to detain them, as well as federal court orders – they cannopt be imprisoned mnerely as a deterrent – and there’s no money to lock them up anyway, and they can’t voluntarily go back across the border since they are NOT Mexicans, and nothing will change about this if Donald Trump is elected.
How do we really know they’re not Mexicans?
Of course, if we had an impassible border they’d never get into our country and we won’t have to ask them their nationality. Hillary’s not going to do that.
