The latest scoop on immigration bonds is in, and it’s clear like filtered water that the Biden administration is going soft on immigration policies. The Center for Immigration Studies has spilled the tea on some data that shows a drop in the use of immigration bonds under Biden’s watch. It’s like trying to catch a slippery eel with these lax enforcement measures!
New Data Sheds More Light On How Biden Admin Is Relaxing Illegal Immigration Enforcement https://t.co/Vu7JWnmB8S

According to CIS, when someone coughs up cash for an immigration bond, they’re essentially signing up to babysit the illegal immigrant they’re sponsoring. Talk about playing babysitter to someone who shouldn’t even be in the country in the first place! The Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) data, brought to light by Syracuse University’s Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, reveals that not only are fewer bonds being used now, but they’re also cheaper. It’s like having a yard sale on immigration rules!
ICE’s data paints a colorful picture of the median immigration bond amounts. In the land of Biden, the highest bond was $8,000 in 2020, while the lowest was a measly $3,000 in 2022. These numbers are like pocket change compared to the stricter times under former President Trump. Biden’s administration seems to be encouraging speeding tickets for immigrants crossing the border – come one, come all, as long as you’ve got a few bucks in your back pocket! But while this may make it easier to wiggle out of detention, it also raises a red flag on compliance, according to ICE officials chatting with CIS.
And the cherry on top of this immigration sundae? Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas got an impeachment on February 13th from the House of Representatives. Looks like Mayorkas might be good at stirring up trouble at the border, but not so great at calming the storm. Border crisis, anyone?
All in all, it seems like the Biden administration is blowing bubbles in the face of immigration enforcement. It’s like giving a thief the keys to the candy store and expecting them not to indulge. With policies as loose as a goose, it’s no wonder why some folks are starting to raise an eyebrow or two at the immigration dance party happening at the border. Let’s hope someone puts their foot down before things get even more out of hand!
