An immigration watchdog predicts America’s illegal alien population will soar thanks to Joe Biden and his sympathetic policies toward illegal immigration.
According to the Federation for American Immigration Reform, the population of illegals residing in the U.S. grew approximately 200,000 in 2020 to an estimated of 14.5 million.
Common sense suggests that number will now jump.
“Now you have an administration,” says Ira Mehlman, a FAIR spokesman, “that has signaled that they re not going to do enforcement.”
The executive order freezing deportations came early in Biden’s flood of signings and the President was expected to sign three more immigration-related orders today, Feb. 2.

With growing frequency over the past four years, right-wing pundits, policymakers, and political operatives have fiercely and furiously blamed immigrants for the degradation and decline of nature in the United States. William Perry Pendley, who temporarily ran the U.S. Bureau of Land Management under former President Donald Trump, saw “immigration as one of the biggest threats to public lands,” according to an agency spokesperson.

TX turned tables, at least temporarily, on immigration lawsuits

An immigration watchdog is praising a federal judge for blocking President Joe Biden’s executive order that halted deportations of illegal immigrants for 100 days.
Texas-based federal judge Drew Tipton, a Donald Trump appointee, granted a temporary restraining order sought by Ken Paxton, the attorney general for The Lonestar State, who had sued to challenge the order.
The judge’s order puts a two-week halt to Biden s order while the judge considers the motion by the state for a preliminary injunction.
Ira Mehlman, a spokesman for the Federation for American Immigration Reform, tells One News Now there is some poetic justice in Tipton s ruling after his group witnessed a flood lawsuits filed against the Trump administration for the President s clamp down on illegal immigration.
