Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) blasted President Biden and his administration for failing to lead amid crisis after crisis. First, Biden failed at the border, allowing record numbers of migrants to swarm the border. Now, Biden’s disappointed allies in Afghanistan with his hasty withdrawal. Biggs appeared on the Sara Carter Show Friday to discuss Biden’s failures at length.

President Biden is failing to lead our country in a time we need it most. Shameful.https://t.co/5C6WsjFspo

Just this July, over 200,000 migrants entered the country via the southern border. As a result, as many as 31 border patrol agents have died of COVID-19-related illnesses, according to Biggs. So, the Arizona lawmaker is trying to impeach Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.

Yet, “Republicans that won’t sign on to impeach Secretary Mayorkas,” Biggs told host Sara Carter. “What he has done is violated the law. He’s violated the Constitution. He’s violated his oath of office.” Biggs claims that many are too afraid to go against Speaker Nancy Pelosi, so they let Mayorkas off the hook.

But Biggs’ calls for resignation don’t stop with Mayorkas. “Biden should resign, Harris should resign,” Biggs said. “The Secretary of Defense, that guy is such such a weenie he needs to go, he definitely needs to go.”

Meanwhile, Biden’s White House focuses on the inconsequential. “This administration is more interested in weight and waving the gay pride flag about the US Embassy in Kabul, and making sure that everybody’s masked up, than they are about our enemies, about inflation,” Biggs said.

Images of Biden administration’s ID cards for illegal immigrants leaked

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) announced the ICE Secure Docket program as a “pilot to modernize various forms of documentation provided to provisionally released noncitizens through a consistent, verifiable, secure card” in 2022, and that program may be coming soon. In civilian terms, that means illegal immigrants may start getting identification cards…from our own government.

An ICE spokesperson told the Daily Caller News Foundation (DCNF) in 2022 that the program is intended to allow migrants to use IDs as their cases progress; the IDs contain QR codes allowing migrants to access their court documents to prove to authorities that they have pending immigration cases, allowing them to travel through Transportation Security Administration (TSA) checkpoints with greater ease.

Now the Daily Caller News Foundation has obtained images that could be the rolling out of the cards, along with a recent memo regarding the use of the cards which reads:

“Present this card upon any contact with an ICE or CBP officer as a tool for verifying your immigration case and current release status. In addition, you may access online tools available through the ICE portal through the Quick Response (QR) code on the front of this document to manage and monitor your immigration case,”

TSA already allows migrants to use ICE forms labeled “Warrant for Arrest of Alien” and a “Warrant of Removal/Deportation,” according to an email obtained by the DCNF in January.

“This administration continues to normalize and make illegal immigration easier for those who disregard our laws. This ID program is another example of wasting taxpayer money on programs that don’t solve this immigration crisis,” Retired ICE Field Office Director and current board member with National Immigration Center for Enforcement (NICE) John Fabbricatore said in a statement to the DCNF.

DCNF reports of the current migrant crisis:

Illegal immigration continues to surge at the southern border, where Border Patrol has recorded more than 1.6 million illegal crossings in the first ten months of fiscal year 2023, according to federal data. Additionally, a few thousand migrants have been seen crossing the southern border into the small Texas border town of Eagle Pass in recent days, leading the mayor to declare a state of emergency, according to videos of the incidents.

ICE didn’t immediately respond to a request from DCNF for comment.
