Go ahead... give us a list of lies our DHS spokesperson has told.
I've got one for you, but it's not a spokesperson.
Mayorkas knew border agents did not whip migrants before repeating false claims...
Is Mayorkas a Republican?
Emails obtained show that Marsha Espinosa, assistant secretary of DHS public affairs, emailed Mayorkas with information casting
doubt on the "whipping" narrative. Specifically, Espinosa relayed a news story in which the photographer behind the infamous
photos, Paul Ratje, DEBUNKED THE NARRATIVE.
Espinosa's email was sent at 12:05 p.m on Sept. 24,2021. By 2:30 p.m. that afternoon, Mayorkas was pushing the clearly false
narrative. He said at the White House press briefing: Our entire nation saw horrifying images that do not reflect who we are, who
we aspire to be, or the integrity and values of our truly heroic personnel in the Department of Homeland Security. The
investigation into what occurred has not yet concluded. We know that those images painfully conjured up the worst elements of our
nation's ongoing battle against systemic racism.
If you can pin as many lies on Trump's DHS as I can on Biden's, please... enlighten us. I welcome it.

I'm sure there are more lies Mayorka/Biden's DHS has told, and if you ask nicely, I will provide you with them, but these fir 6 are
kinda long, so I didn't wanna flood.
The 6 biggest lies from Mayorkas and DHS about Team Biden's post-Title 42 plans
If you read the Department of Homeland Security's 'Update on the Southwest Border Security and Preparedness Ahead of Court-Ordered
Lifting of Title 42' you'll find a lot of falsehoods.
A "tissue of lies" is defined by The Free Dictionary as "a number of false statements made to deliberately hide the truth."
Under this definition should be a copy of the Department of Homeland Security's "Update on Southwest Border Security and
Preparedness Ahead of Court-Ordered Lifting of Title 42."
In it, the Biden-Harris administration absolves itself of any responsibility for the unmitigated disaster on the U.S. southern
border, instead blaming global conditions and Congress.
But the truth is President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, and Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas own both
the current chaos as well as what happens after Dec. 21, when they can no longer use Title 42 to expel foreign illegal immigrants.
WHITE HOUSE INSISTS IT IS PREPARING FOR TITLE 42 EXPIRATION, WON'T SAY HOW
Here are the biggest lies of the "Update":
Biden is asking lawmakers for an emergency $3.5 billion for DHS to deal with the border. Senate Homeland Security Appropriations
Committee Chair Chris Murphy, D-Conn., disingenuously claims that "There's still a whole bunch of Republicans that are rooting for
chaos on the border ... " and that he just wants to 'make sure we have enough money to let the border guards do their job."
In fact, Border Patrol agents are not doing their job because Mayorkas has them acting as clerks to process and parole thousands of
illegal immigrants a week. If anyone wants chaos, it's the Biden administration, which is using it to extort money and radical
concessions from Congress.
The memo says that "absent Congressional action to enact comprehensive immigration reform" (in which they include amnesty) and
"create a fair, fast, and functioning asylum system, " there will be overcrowding in facilities and mass release of illegal aliens
"from DHS custody into communities without NGO or other sponsor support."
That's a shakedown. The additional billions Biden wants would go to Mayorkas' migration machine to process and parole millions of
alien arrivals, not to keeping them out of the country or stopping the flow of killer drugs.
REPUBLICANS, DEMOCRATS WARN END OF TITLE 42 WILL BRING IMMIGRATION DISASTER
In the DHS "Update, " the Biden administration claims that it inherited a "broken and dismantled immigration system." This is a
patent falsehood. Under President Donald Trump, illegal immigrant crossings were down significantly. In 2019, Trump's worst year,
there were only a third as many border encounters as there were in fiscal year 2022.
Wrong. Though you'd hardly know it from most of the national media, the flow of illegal immigrants, drugs, known criminals, and
terrorist suspects is at historic levels.
In fiscal year 2021, there were more than 1.7 million illegal alien encounters. In fiscal year 2022 it was 2.4 million, and so far
in fiscal year 2023 there have been more than 500,000. This does not include encounters at the legal ports of entry, or more than a
million "gotaways" who slipped into the U.S. uninspected.
KARINE JEAN-PIERRE SAYS BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS 'PREPARED' FOR END OF TITLE 42
The rush of humanity at the border has diverted DHS from its duty to interdict illegal aliens and smuggled contraband. Even The New
York Times and The Washington Post are reporting on how fentanyl deaths are effecting communities all over the country. According
to the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, all that fentanyl is coming through Mexico.
Furthermore, Biden's immigration process is not "safe, " because at least 557 migrants died crossing the border illegally in 2021,
and more than 800 died in fiscal year 2022. It is not "orderly, " as one can see in daily media footage of thousands of foreigners
crossing the border illegally on foot. It is not "humane" for American citizens near the border, whose farms and towns are filled
with a rotating flow of indigents, nor for the illegal migrants, who subject themselves to robbery, rape, and murder to breach our
borders.
The DHS "Update" claims "the increase in migration ... is consisted with larger global trends." Sure, "economic and political
instability" in places like Venezuela and Nicaragua makes people want to leave, but the reason they actually do so is the welcome
mat extended by the Biden administration through letting everyone in and abusing the parole power to let them stay.
TITLE 42'S LOOMING END, MIGRANTS SLEEPING IN STREETS FORCES EL PASO OFFICIAL TO PLEAD FOR HELP
In 2022, migration to the U.S. is caused by poor governance, economic mismanagement, and burgeoning populations of the unemployed.
However, instead of acknowledging that reality, the Biden DHS treats millions of economic migrants like they were the few thousand
fleeing communism in 1952.
Biden's regime assumes that every person seeking admission to the U.S. is a probable asylum-seeker, despite the fact that 90% do
not have a "well-founded fear of persecution, " as the Immigration and Nationality Act puts it.
Wrong. The administration has existing powers under U.S. immigration law as well as proven programs like the Migrant Protection
Protocols with Mexico and Asylum Cooperative Agreements with Central American countries that could have kept most potential asylum
claimants outside the U.S. while they were given due process.

Instead, DHS moves them as quickly as possible into the hands of friendly activist NGOs and into the country. It took Border Patrol
agents off the border to rubber-stamp parole papers. It built a Southwest Border Coordination Center and more than 10 tent camps to
increase U.S. Customs and Border Protection's capacity to house migrants, then it 'doubled ... capacity to transport noncitizens"
with "hundreds of flights and bus routes per week" to get them inside the U.S. and "on to the next stage of their immigration
process with due haste, " per the "Update."
DHS has given more than $225 million to NGOs in Federal Emergency Management Agency grants to house illegal aliens, buy them plane
and bus tickets wherever they want to go, and provide other assistance. Those aliens released are almost never removed. DHS is
asking for billions more to do the same thing.
This is the biggest lie of them all.
DHS claims that in fiscal year 2022 "over 1.4 million noncitizens were removed under Title 8 or expelled under Title 42, more than
any previous year, " but there were more than 2.7 million encounters at the border, a historical record. Even allowing that some
were repeat encounters, DHS itself admits that well over a million illegal aliens were released into the U.S. in fiscal year 2022.
In fiscal year 2022, a mere 69,019 aliens were deported.
Biden's migration policy is to allow millions of people to enter the U.S. and claim asylum, despite a low probability that they
will qualify, and then refuse to deport those who fail in the process. This gives millions of people de facto permanent U.S.
residency, a usurpation of congressional power and an injustice to both legal immigrants waiting in line and American taxpayers at
home who pick up the costs. Congress shouldn't fund it.

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition
All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome, " or TDS.
"Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has been driven effectively insane due to their dislike
of Donald Trump, to the point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."
Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into
three distinct phases or stages:
"In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm,
as if 140 characters were all it took to change the world."
"The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting
solely of hyperbole."
"As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from reality."
The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk opposition from liberals to anything and everything
Trump does. If Trump announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would suggest he was up to something
nefarious, according to the logic of TDS. There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be received
positively by TDSers.
The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early 2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was a
punch line for late-night comics and nothing more.
Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first coined by the late conservative columnist Charles
Krauthammer back in 2003. The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people in
reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay - the very existence of George W. Bush."
