Former acting Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf says border agents being restrained from using surveillance balloons to track illegal migrants. | Current and former U.S. officials are warning that the Biden administration has begun manipulating border statistics, incentivizing illegal aliens to shift from illegally crossing the southern border to seeking parole and asylum at ports of entry while blinding border agents by restricting their use of surveillance balloons. ● Former acting Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf told the "Just the News, No Noise" television show Tuesday that the net effect of the policy changes will be to create a false portrait to the American people that the border crisis has eased when in fact it has simply shifted tactics, 💬 "They're just simply moving them from the desert or across the river into a port of entry," the former Trump administration official said. "But the result remains the same, which is they are doing nothing to deter this type of behavior. And they continue to incentivize and encourage it." ● In the aftermath of American alarm over a Chinese spy balloon that violated U.S. air space, Wolf said he was deeply concerned that the Biden administration last week thwarted Customs and Border Protection agents' ability to track so-called gotaways — illegal aliens who elude border patrol agents — by reducing the use of surveillance balloons known as aerostats. ● New polling shows Americans are increasingly souring on Biden's immigration policies, a political problem heading into the 2024 election that the new policies seek to address. Only 28% of Americans surveyed in a Gallup poll this month reported they are satisfied with current immigration levels.
