As if the American people needed further evidence of the misplaced priorities of the Biden administration, there’s more.

While the economy continues to tank, inflation continues to rise, and national security and public safety are threatened by intentional erosion of any semblance of border security or rational immigration policy, the administration has taken yet another indefensible action.

In keeping with President Joe Biden’s previous order protecting the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, the Department of Homeland Security published its final rule aimed at preserving and fortifying an unlawful immigration program creating a quasi-amnesty by executive fiat with no basis in statutory immigration law.

That recent action is the administration’s attempt to codify former Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano’s original DACA memo of 2012 and, accordingly, almost entirely tracks with the original eligibility criteria.
