Washington Times: Laken Riley's Illegal Alien Murderer Was Set Free Due to a "Lack of Bedspace" In Illegal Alien Dention Centers; Mayorkas Asked for a Cut In Money for Bedspaces Three Years in a Row

Washington Times: Laken Riley's Illegal Alien Murderer Was Set Free Due to a "Lack of Bedspace" In Illegal Alien Dention Centers;
Mayorkas Asked for a Cut In Money for Bedspaces Three Years in a Row

They engineered this situation, deliberately.

They cut the funding to detain illegal alien criminals so that they can then release them and use "lack of funding for detention of illegal alien criminals" as their justification.

Steven Dinan:

Homeland Security released the illegal immigrant accused of killing Laken Riley into the U.S. because it lacked the detention space, according to his confidential immigration file.
Sen. Josh Hawley, Missouri Republican, read key parts of the file into the record at a Senate hearing Thursday.
Jose Ibarra, the man charged with the Feb. 22 slaying, was released under Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas' power of parole, which is supposed to be used in limited cases and only when there is an urgent humanitarian need or a significant benefit to the public.
Mr. Hawley said lack of detention space doesn't meet either of those standards and so Mr. Mayorkas broke the law in releasing the suspected killer.
"Now we all know that the reason he was paroled into this country is because of lack of detention capacity, which you and I both know is not a valid reason," the senator said.
Mr. Mayorkas declined to talk about the details of the case and wouldn't say whether he had read his department's file on Mr. Ibarra.
...
Mr. Hawley swatted Mr. Mayorkas for giving two different answers about Mr. Ibarra's case in testimony to other committees this month.
"Why did you change your story so often?" Mr. Hawley challenged.
...

Even as he's acknowledged a lack of ICE beds, Mr. Mayorkas has asked Congress to cut bed space further in every budget he's submitted.

They cut the bed space, then say the lack of bed space constitutes a "humanitarian emergency" which requires that illegal alien criminals be set free to murder Americans.

Mayorkas confessed last month that the Biden Regime policy is to free all illegal alien criminals unless they have committed a "serious offense."

But Laken Riley's killer put a child in danger and Biden took no action.

On Face the Nation on Sunday, host Margaret Brennan noted that the suspect not only was "an undocumented Venezuelan migrant" but also was arrested twice, once in New York City for driving without a license and once in Athens, Georgia, for shoplifting. Brennan asked Mayorkas, "Did those states and their law enforcement communicate to the federal government that this had happened? Should this man have been deported?"
Instead of accepting responsibility for allowing the suspect to walk free, Mayorkas tried to blame New York City and Athens. "Margaret, there are a number of cities around the country that have varying degrees of cooperation with the immigration authorities," Mayorkas said. "We firmly believe that if a city is aware of an individual who poses a threat to public safety, then we would request that they provide us with that information so that we can ensure that that individual is detained if the facts so warrant."
Mayorkas makes it sound like if only New York City and Athens had alerted Immigration and Customs Enforcement about the suspect's previous arrests, then ICE would have acted.
But that is not true. Under a Mayorkas memo issued on Sept. 30, 2021, ICE never would have wasted the effort to deport the suspect.
"A noncitizen who poses a current threat to public safety, typically because of serious criminal conduct, is a priority for apprehension and removal," the Mayorkas memo reads. "Whether a noncitizen poses a current threat to public safety is not to be determined according to bright lines or categories. It instead requires an assessment of the individual and the totality of the facts and circumstances."

Meanwhile, Speaker Johnson, Our Hero, is ramming through the Ukraininan funding bill while blocking any efforts to amend the funding bill with funding for the US border.

We have to keep our priorities in mind! And our highest priority as a country is to support and defend Joe Biden's foreign paymasters.

The Freedom Caucus calls this no-amendments-on-Ukraine-funding "the America Last Rule."

Mike Lee
@BasedMikeLee
Tell your representative: TAKE DOWN THE "AMERICA LAST" RULE!
House Republicans can't transform leftist priorities into Republican wins simply by attaching their names.
And make no mistake, that's what The Firm (TM) is trying to get away with here.

I assume "The Firm (TM)" is his nickname for the establishment Stasi Uniparty.

MTG is angry about Speaker Johnson bringing the Ukraine funding bill to a vote -- which he doesn't have to do; he's in control of which bills get a vote and which are tabled forever -- and so she is proposing an amendment that anyone voting for Ukraine aid must sign up to fight for Ukraine.

Mike Lee
@BasedMikeLee
Republican lawmakers universally campaign as conservatives.
Far too many of them vote to advance progressive priorities once in office.
Then they contort themselves into pretzels trying to claim they're still conservatives.
Watch carefully what happens over the next few days.

Mike Lee and Josh Hawley blasted the Secretary for Illegal Immigration Mayorkas.

In an impassioned speech, Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) made one of the most important points in standing in opposition to Schumer's machinations, correctly noting that Mayorkas had indeed been accused of impeachable offenses including "knowingly making false statements."
"If this is not a high crime and misdemeanor, what is? If this is not impeachable, what is? What precedent will we be setting?" Lee rhetorically asked his colleagues as Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA) attempted to shush him.

“If this is not a high crime and misdemeanor, what is?

“If this is not impeachable, what is?”

Senator Mike Lee destroying Chuck Schumer’s argument against impeaching Mayorkas.

Republicans are giving speeches again.

Missouri Senator @HawleyMO just ripped into DHS Secretary Mayorkas regarding the release into US of Laken Riley's Venezuelan alleged killer. Mayorkas responded that he has confidence justice will be served in the case.
Hawley: "Hopefully he'll get more of a trial than you did."

Senator @HawleyMO pins DHS Secretary Mayorkas into a corner:

MAYORKAS: "I will not speak to the particulars of the case..."

HAWLEY: "Of course you don't want to, because it is an absolutely DAMNING INDICTMENT of your policies!"

It's all to register illegal people to sign on ballots with phony SS numbers in vast numbers (30 or so million), then hold them in warehouses when needed. The DNC will then ship them whenever called upon, where-ever needed, across 20 or so state, county or city election board with DNC recording fraudsters at the ready.

138 Re: sidebar about cannibalism in New Guinea:

uh. I don't think that's a lie--I mean that it happened there (dead certain) and may very well still happen.

Its a weird weird thing but places that have cannibalism in their past, and especially kinda recent past, tend to have incidents where they revert to it. Happened in Kalimantan (Borneo) with Dayaks (even though converted to Christian) eating a couple Madurese in the early 2000's.

A buddy of mine was at an event where Christians were confessing and repending of what they did. He talked to a guy who said he *almost* fell back into it and this Indonesian reported that at one point they all felt a "call", something that they either felt/heard and that was pulling them to come to the place where the cannibalism happened. He said it was almost overwhelming.

This bothers you intensely, I don’t know why, but I’m sorry, there wasn’t a famine during the Great Depression. By your logic, we have hungry people in America right now as I type, therefore there is a famine. No, contrary to your name, this is NOT how it works.
