TODD BENSMAN: The damning truth about Biden's new illegal immigration ... trends now
Watch closely America, President Joe Biden is about to perform his greatest border crisis cover-up yet.
It's a scheme to hide a massive new acceleration of human inflows into the United States behind trickery, misdirection, and probable illegality - and then laughlingly call it progress.
Witness Biden's token first presidential trip to the southern border to visit El Paso, Texas, last weekend as lazy Football Sunday America was looking the other way.
With the midterm election safely in the rear-view mirror, Biden figured he could risk dragging the White House press corps down to the border to shut up the barking Republican dogs.
But the three-hour drive-by and hasty photo op at a border wall section cleared of illegal immigrants reflected nothing of the record-smashing five million-plus border illegal crossings since his inauguration.
Prior to his arrival, migrant encampments crowding El Paso's streets were torn down and the migrants were convenient bused to Mexico.
It looked tidy. The grim truth swept under the rug.
This fits puzzle-perfect with Biden's two-year cover-up strategy: draw as little attention as possible to the historic mass migration crisis his policies have wrought.
But here's where American's must take notice.
In a January 5th press conference just prior to his sanitized El Paso trip, Biden proudly characterized his administration's 'New Border Enforcement Actions.'
Watch closely America, President Joe Biden is about to perform his greatest border crisis cover-up yet.
In reality, the Biden administration has, out of thin air, created a parallel immigration system outside the authority of Congress and the American people.
The faux-system is predicated on a very narrow power provided by the Immigration and Nationality Act allowing the Secretary of DHS to grant something called 'humanitarian parole' admittance.
The law says humanitarian parole can be given to individuals 'on a case-by-case basis for urgent humanitarian reasons or significant public benefit.' But Biden will apply this to hundreds of thousands of people a year without any individual case-by-case review.
The plan will permit 30,000 migrants a month, 360,000 a year, from four qualifying countries to enter and work in America if they have U.S. sponsors and clear background checks, under the presumption that they will one day apply for permanent asylum.
Voila! 'Legal.'
And what happens if these hundreds of thousands just disappear into America's vast underclass of undocumented citizens?
The answer seems to be - oh well.
In short, this new 'enforcement plan' end-runs
