EAGLE PASS, Texas — The Biden-Harris administration released a Venezuelan migrant and his family onto the streets of Eagle Pass after they entered the U.S. via the CBP One cell phone app. The migrants said they were asked no questions regarding asylum or credible fear before being released into the U.S.

Rodrigo, a Venezuelan national who did not want his real name revealed, and his family roamed the streets of Eagle Pass Thursday night in search of a place to sleep. After failing to find any open migrant shelters and with no money, Rodrigo was stuck looking for a place where his children might be able to sleep. Having just been let into the United States earlier in the day, he says he was not required to claim asylum with CBP officers at the port of entry or answer any asylum-related questions to gain entry under the Biden-Harris CBP One program.

Rodrigo’s wife was teary-eyed as the family walked the streets, hoping to find shelter. Together, the family of four, which included Rodrigo’s 14-year-old daughter and seven-year-old son, had walked nearly five miles across the city. With no money for food or a hotel, the family had resigned themselves to finding an open convenience store where the children might sleep as Rodrigo watched over them.

Breitbart Texas encountered the family more than four miles from the Eagle Pass Camino Real Port of Entry, where they had been admitted into the United States and released under the Biden-Harris CBP One asylum program more than eight hours earlier in the day. Rodrigo said the family had waited for a CBP One appointment in Mexico for two months. He said the time was spent making numerous attempts on the smartphone CBP One application hoping to garner four of the 1,450 daily appointment slots that allow migrants to gain release into the United States.

The program allows migrants to enter the United States without having to complete a formal credible fear hearing before an asylum officer. Rather than providing the rationale for requesting asylum, during a brief interview, Rodrigo told Breitbart Texas that the topic of asylum was not even brought up. Rodrigo says he was merely required to prove he was the father of his children and that Myrna was his wife.

When asked if he was required to present a verbal claim of asylum during his admission processing or to tell CBP officers why he left his country or what he feared in his country, Rodrigo said, “No, they didn’t interview us like that.”

Rodrigo says he funded his trip from southern Mexico and did not travel on a recently established Secure Emerging Mobility Corridor busing program that provides free travel, food, and security for those who have a CBP One appointment at one of eight land ports of entry along the southwest border. As reported by Breitbart, this program was initiated by the government of Mexico after a series of bi-national meetings between the AMLO government and the Biden-Harris administration that expanded the geographical capabilities of the CBP One application to southern Mexico.

The CBP One smartphone application is separate from the recently reinstituted Cuban, Haitian, Nicaraguan, and Venezuelan program, which allows up to 1,000 migrants to fly into the United States daily. Between the two Biden-Harris programs, more than 800,000 migrants are released into the United States yearly to allegedly pursue asylum claims or under parole status.

A former aide to Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) who is allegedly a Chinese spy reportedly toured the White House in May.

Linda Sun was reportedly under federal investigation at the time, the New York Post reported on Friday, noting, “The May 8 visit was facilitated by Sun’s former boss, Queens Rep. Grace Meng (D-NY), the congresswoman’s office confirmed Friday.”

Sun previously worked as a high-ranking aide for Hochul and disgraced former Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D).

The Post article continued:

Last week, Sun, 41, and her husband, Christopher Hu, 40, who also is listed on White House visitor logs, were slapped with sprawling charges of violating and conspiring to violate the Foreign Agents Registration Act, visa fraud, alien smuggling and money laundering conspiracy. They have pleaded not guilty.

Brooklyn federal prosecutors allege Sun used her position under Hochul and Cuomo to turn the governor’s office into a virtual mouthpiece for the People’s Republic of China and Chinese Community Party.

In exchange, she allegedly received gifts and millions of dollars in bribes — which she and her hubby used to buy real estate, including their Manhasset mansion, and luxury cars like a 2024 Ferrari Roma.

Before the FBI arrested Sun and Hu, the agency raided their home in July, according to Breitbart News:

The outlet also reported that the couple was eventually arraigned in federal court in Brooklyn. The outlet then detailed some of the accusations against Sun:

Sun, in various instances, allegedly prevented Cuomo and Hochul from working, engaging, and speaking with Taiwanese officials. At the same time, Sun allegedly had Cuomo and Hochul make seemingly pro-China statements to appease CCP officials.

During the Chinese coronavirus pandemic in April 2020, for example, the Taiwanese government donated 200,000 masks to New York. When Taiwanese officials pressed why then-Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul’s office had not made any public announcement about the donation, Sun allegedly phoned her contact in the CCP to make them aware that Hochul would be only privately calling to thank such Taiwanese officials for the donation.

Several New York Republicans are now calling for an investigation into Hochul after Sun, a naturalized American citizen who was born in China, was arrested, according to Breitbart News.

The American people are witnessing the consequences of an open border under Vice President Kamala Harris’s leadership, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, said during an appearance on Breitbart News Saturday, noting that the United States went from a “secure border to no border.”

This week, Republicans in Congress had victims of migrant crime testify, and Jordan described it as “tough to listen to.”

“They were great witnesses, don’t get me wrong. But it was just the terrible things that happened to these three young ladies, and then, of course, the one young man, the son … his mom talked about one time he used fentanyl and it took his life, and he was — it was a good young man — 15-year-old freshman in high school,” he said.

“It’s just powerful stories that underscore what happens when you have an open border. And I tell everyone, literally, we went from a secure border to no border, and you’re seeing it play out,” he said, noting that some of the illegal migrants who have come into the country are on the terrorist watch list.

All of this has resulted in “terrible crime that happened to the families that we had testify this week … and others around the country.”

“And then, of course, you got the situation where you have the stress on your education system, your health care system, your housing market, like we have in Springfield, Ohio, where you have what some estimates are 20,000 Haitians come into a community of 60,000,” he said. “So this is what happens when you don’t have a border, when you have a commander-in-chief and an administration who simply will not enforce the law,” he explained, emphasizing that Harris is at fault, as she and Biden let millions into the country.

LISTEN:

“[They] let 10 million people come in the country — 10 million migrants, 99 on the terrorist watch list. Many of them have done terrible things like you heard from this past week in our hearing, and she was the border czar,” he said of Harris, explaining that they stopped deciding requests for temporary parole on a case-by-case basis and just opened it up instead.

“Instead, what they said is, we’re going to just open it up for categories of people. And so for Cubans, for Haitians, for Venezuelans, and people from Honduras, they just let them come in — 300,000 from Cuba, 20,000 of them are in Springfield, Ohio. So this is the failed policy that are impacting, again, not just border communities, but every community,” he said, noting that Harris can say what she wants, but the American people “have eyes” and “can see what’s going on.”

When asked how this can be turned around, Jordan said it all comes down to the election and electing former President Donald Trump.

“It’s that simple. Look, we have to win. If we don’t take the Senate, we don’t win the White House and keep the House, they’ll do more of this. … Everyone understands that you cannot just bring in — in a short period of time — 20,000 people into a community of 60,000 and not impact, as you said, the education system, the healthcare system, the housing market,” he said of the news out of Springfield, Ohio.

Jordan said he received a call from a friend in that community this week who told him that there are issues with car accidents “because so many people can’t drive, and they’re not trained to drive, yet they do.”

“This is what happens when you have an administration who takes the position that this administration took from day one, day one,” he said, noting that the Biden-Harris administration dismantled the secure border by ceasing work on the wall, nixing Remain in Mexico, and adding parole authority for certain countries and allowing those people to come in.

“You do those things, you are going to get 10 million. You are going to get what we have now in our country, and the impact it has on our community, and the American people said ‘enough.’ And then when they come in, all the benefits they get with your tax dollars, with American tax money, that’s what’s so frustrating to the American people,” Jordan said. “Again, I think this starts to get through to the voters, and I think it’s why President Trump’s gonna be our next president.”

Former President Donald Trump must remind Americans how much better off they were under his leadership, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, said during an appearance on Breitbart News Saturday.

Host Matthew Boyle pointed out that Vice President Kamala Harris was unable to answer a very basic question during Tuesday evening’s debate — if Americans are better off today than four years ago.

“I think the best part of the debate was what you just … described,” Jordan said. “Well, frankly, it was the very first answer from her, where she didn’t answer the question, and the closing statement from President Trump, where he highlighted the fact that: Where were you four years ago? Where are you today? … that’s the takeaway from the debate, in my judgment,” Jordan said.

“And the American people understand that,” he said, acknowledging that Harris has the press on her side.

But, he added, “They can not fact check her. They can fact check the president,” but “it doesn’t change the facts.”

“It doesn’t change the issues. It doesn’t change what the American people see. And I always say: In four year’s time, under President Trump, we had a secure border. Today, we have no border. Under President Trump, we had $2 gas. Today, we have $4 gas. Under President Trump, we had safe streets. … Now, we have record crime. And, under President Trump, we had stable pricing. Now, we have record inflation. Which do you want?” he asked.

“We have something we very seldom get in American politics,” he said, explaining that there is a clear contrast between Trump’s administration and the Biden-Harris administration.

“Which was better? And anyone who just sits and looks at the issues, looks at the facts, looks at the truth, will see that it was so much better under President Trump. And that’s all we got to highlight over the next 50-some days. And, when we do, again, I think he’s going to win,” Jordan predicted.

LISTEN:

When asked what advice he would give to Trump as Election Day closes in, Jordan said it is crucial to “remind the American people what it was like when he was in office.”

“Today, you can’t afford to take your family out to dinner on Friday night, Saturday night. You want to take them out. … I mean, it’s unbelievable what it costs. Remind them what it was. Remind them that, when he was president, Russia didn’t go into Ukraine. Hamas and Hezbollah didn’t attack our best friend, Israel, when he was president,” he said, emphasizing the importance of having a leader who “projects strength,” versus the Biden-Harris administration, which projects “weakness.”

“The American people know deep down [that] President Trump has their best interests” and “is going to fight for them,” Jordan added.

Democrats are scoffing at the civic and economic damage federal migration policy has caused ordinary Americans in Springfield, Ohio, says Sen. JD Vance (R-OH), former President Donald Trump’s running mate.

“Housing costs skyrocketing. Communicable diseases on the rise. Car accidents, crime, and [auto] insurance premiums moving up. Citizens complaining for months (or longer) and mostly ignored.” Vance posted on X on Friday, adding:

[The harm is] not just what’s hapening, it’s the way our leadership responds to it. Confronted with many of their citizens begging for relief, our broken elites offer only scorn.

“It is racist,” they tell us, to get angry at being unable to afford a home, or to complain about being unable to drive a car safely down the streets paved by your neighbors, or to call 911 because strangers are slaughtering geese in a public park. They have ignored this town’s problems for years.

Now, they pay attention–not to focus their considerable wealth and power on helping their fellow citizens. But to use their platform as a weapon against those who dare to notice that their lives have gotten worse.

Some establishment media reports acknowledge some of the economic costs that the large-scale, government-funded arrival of perhaps 20,000 illegal immigrants in a small town of almost 60,000 Americans have imposed.

However, very few media outlets admit how migration disadvantages Americans and aids migrants when seeking housing and jobs. “For our government to totally throw aside national citizens, people that were born and raised here [is wrong] … they’re treating us like we’re the trash,” one American told a reporter.

Instead, media outlets and Democrats portray citizens and Trump’s campaign as threats to Haitian migrants even though citizens are protesting President Joe Biden’s policy of importing migrant labor to fill low-wage jobs that vast budget deficits have created.

For example, on Friday, many media outlets spotlighted Biden blaming Trump after anonymous bomb threats forced the closure of schools and government buildings. The Washington Post wrote:

“I want to take a moment to say something [about the] Haitian American community that’s under attack in our country right now,” Biden said during a White House event celebrating [b]lack excellence. “It’s simply wrong. There’s no place in America. This has to stop, what he’s [Trump’s] doing. It has to stop!”

Vance, however, pushed back:

Nothing justifies violence or the threat of violence levied against Springfield or its residents. We condemn both. But the existence of threats doesn’t justify silencing those who wish to petition their leadership for a better life. There is no heckler’s veto in our country. Donald Trump was shot in the head, and yet they still call him a “threat to democracy.”

Yet it is Kamala Harris who is a threat to democracy. It is Kamala Harris who would rather import new voters than persuade the ones who are already here. It is Kamala Harris who would rather ignore the citizens of Springfield than undo the policies that hurt them. It is Kamala Harris who would rather censor her fellow Americans than listen to them.

What we are seeing from Kamala Harris and her enablers in the media is disgusting. And there is only one person who has consistently stood up to Kamala Harris and the entire corrupt system she represents. There is only one person who has consistently fought for the people Kamala Harris laughs at or ignores.

“Donald J. Trump for President,” Vance concluded.

Since 2021, Biden and his deputies have imported almost ten million legal and illegal immigrants — around one immigrant for every American birth.

Expect election results in November to take a while, the New York Times told its readers Friday, a warning that appears to preempt an expectation that Americans should know who wins the presidential election on Election Night.

Before modern technology, close presidential elections often were decided in the early morning of the next day, such as the 1960 presidential election between Robert F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon, which some political experts believe was stolen from Nixon.

Now, in the 21st century, close election results still take a similar amount of time or even longer, depending on the state in question. In 2020, election results were not determined until four days after Election Day.

Americans should not expect to know who won the 2024 presidential election on the night of the election because of “intense security measures required for counting mail-in ballots,” the Times reported:

If a winner is not declared on election night, it will not necessarily point to failures in the process. More likely, it will be a result of the intense security measures required for counting mail-in ballots.

Election officials across the country are trying to telegraph to voters that waiting long hours or even days for a result is not unexpected in a close election. They are eager to counter conspiracy theorists who may seize on the uncertainty as evidence of fraud or malfeasance.

…

Counting mail ballots takes more time because there are more steps involved. A variety of security measures, including signature verification and ensuring that voters did not also try to vote in person, are required. Election officials must open the ballots and flatten them out before they can be put in a tabulator to be counted.

The Times, however, reassured readers the 2024 results are not expected to take as long as 2020 because “states have improved their procedures for tabulating mail ballots, and election officials across the country have more experience with the process.”

Vice President Kamala Harris, during her second interview on Friday since joining the race, undermined her record in the Biden-Harris administration by stating the administration’s policies are not fit for the “twenty-first century.”

Harris faces a conundrum: She cannot campaign on policies to fix crime, inflation, and border security without undermining the Biden-Harris administration’s policies, but she must tout the administration’s policies to validate her record and candidacy.

“I wonder if there are one or two spots, policy areas or approaches where you would say I’m a different person [than Joe Biden]?” asked Taff.

“My approach is about new ideas, new policies that are directed at the current moment. And also, to be very honest with you, my focus is very much in what we need to do over the next ten twenty years to catch up to the twenty first century,” Harris replied.

“I’m obviously not Joe Biden, and you know, I offer a new generation of leadership,” she said, providing examples that the Biden-Harris administration failed to achieve, such as helping citizens achieve the American dream:

And so, for example, thinking about developing and creating an opportunity economy where it’s about investing in areas that really need a lot of work, and maybe focusing on again, the aspirations and the dreams, but also just recognizing that at this moment in time, some of the stuff we could take for granted years ago, we can’t take for granted anymore. For example, another plan that I have that is a new approach is to expand the child tax credit to $6,000 for young families for the first year of their child’s life, because that is obviously a very critical stage of development of a child, and a lot of young parents need the help to buy a car seat or a crib or clothes for their kids.

Taff also asked Harris how she would go about bringing “down prices and making life more affordable for people.”

Harris responded with the same rehearsed answer she used in the debate. “I grew up a middle class kid,” Harris replied, again ignoring the question. As Breitbart News reported, Harris’s claim is “mostly false.” Harris grew up with an affluent Canadian upbringing, growing up in Westmount.

“I, based on experience and and a lived experience, know in my heart, I know in my soul, I know that the vast majority of us as Americans have so much more in common than what separates us,” she rambled. “And I also believe that I am accurate in knowing that most Americans want a leader who brings us together as Americans, and not someone who professes to be a leader who is trying to have us point our fingers at each other.”

“Let’s bring everybody together,” she said. 

Harris lastly said she wants to ban guns. “I feel very strongly that it is consistent with the second amendment and your right to own a gun to say that we need an assault weapons ban,” she said. “They’re literally tools of war.”

“We’re not taking anybody’s guns away,” she added in the same breath.

During an interview with Michigan’s Fox 17 WXMI on Friday, 2024 Democratic vice presidential candidate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) stated that Americans are better off economically than they were four years ago.

Fox 17 Special Projects and Investigative Producer Ilene Gould asked, “On Tuesday, during the debate, the first question was, to the vice president, are Americans better off than they were four years ago, regarding the economy? She didn’t necessarily directly answer that question, and I want to give you a chance, what’s your response?”

Walz responded, “Yeah, well, certainly, an economy that works for the middle class. Donald Trump has been clear, I’ll give him this, the one thing he’s been clear about is he promised his rich friends in Mar-a-Lago, he said, you’re rich as heck, and you’re going to get a tax cut. He did that, he did. He decimated the middle class. He made it more difficult. He put more burdens on middle-class folks. He doesn’t have any plan for things like child care and an economy that matters to people. And the issue is, is, as we came out of COVID, which Donald Trump horribly mismanaged, and I say that as a Governor who understood it, we had to rebuild. And that’s exactly what she’s done, and we have now, this new way forward, certainly, it makes a case to Michigan voters that they have an opportunity to see themselves reflected in these policies, not just a very few at the top. So, this idea of home ownership, as I said, for many of us, that’s [so] foundational to who we are, for these folks on Wall Street, it’s just a commodity to be traded. And I think that’s — Donald Trump has sided with those folks, Kamala Harris is siding with folks right in the middle, folks who go every day to make an honest day’s work and should be paid an honest day’s salary.”
