This is breathtakingly dishonest, even by Washington DC standards

@SecMayorkas on the reason for the rise in border crossings: "Former President Trump slashed […] the resources that we were contributing to the root causes of irregular migration."

President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is seemingly working closely with a handful of open borders organizations, including those linked to billionaire George Soros, to help illegal aliens secure visas to stay in the United States.

This week, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas announced that the Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Victim Of Immigration Crime Engagement (VOICE) office would be replaced by the Victims Engagement and Services Line (VESL).

Former President Trump first created VOICE in 2017 to help Angel Families, the surviving loved ones of victims of illegal alien crime, to navigate their cases. Last year, alone, VOICE’s hotline received about 700 calls from victims requesting assistance.

Whereas VOICE focused on helping Americans victimized by illegal immigration, Biden’s VESL hotline will continue that work but also now help illegal aliens claiming to be crime victims secure U and T visas.

An email from top DHS officials, exclusively reviewed by Breitbart News, shows that the agency is working closely with open borders groups to alert them that illegal alien clients can take advantage of the VESL hotline and secure visas if they say they are crime victims.

The groups emailed by DHS include United We Dream and the National Immigration Law Center (NILC), both of which have links to Soros’ Open Society Foundation. Other groups attached to the email include the Immigrant Defense Project, the American Immigration Council, Immigration Equality, and Catholic Charities USA.
