The recent memo to border agents confirms that the policy of “catch and release” still stands under the Democrats and the Biden administration. This means that illegal immigrants are essentially being set free after crossing the border. This is a concerning issue because these individuals are not being properly processed or held accountable for breaking the law.
It is alarming to see that individuals from over 100 countries in the eastern hemisphere are being released on their own recognizance, with only a few exceptions. Countries like Uzbekistan, Russia, Tajikistan, Georgia, Moldova, and Kyrgyzstan are deemed as “mandatory referral” countries, but others are not included in this list, raising questions about the consistency of the policy.

The fact that many illegal immigrants, including those from China, the Middle East, and Africa, are being released into the U.S. with future court dates is a clear indication that the border situation is not being effectively managed. This leniency only encourages more illegal crossings and puts a strain on the resources and security of the country.
It is puzzling to learn that some eastern hemisphere countries are refusing to cooperate with the U.S. in repatriating their citizens. These same countries often receive foreign aid from the United States, which should be a leverage point for negotiations. The Biden administration should be more assertive in ensuring that these countries take responsibility for their citizens who have entered the U.S. illegally.
The continued influx of illegal immigrants, especially military-aged men from regions with security concerns, poses a significant national security risk. It is crucial to have a robust and consistent border policy that prioritizes the safety and well-being of American citizens. The Biden administration’s failure to address these issues may lead to serious consequences in the future if not rectified promptly.
In conclusion, the policy of catch and release for illegal immigrants is a clear demonstration of the Democrats’ and the Biden administration’s lack of control over the border. It is imperative to prioritize national security and enforcement of immigration laws to protect the interests of the American people.
