Border Patrol memo instructs agents to release migrants from nearly all Eastern Hemisphere countries
SUMMARY
An internal Border Patrol memo obtained by Fox News instructs agents in the San Diego sector to release single adults from all but six countries in the Eastern Hemisphere and classify them as "hard" or "very hard" to remove. This directive follows President Biden's executive order, which restricts asylum for most illegal aliens. While the order promises consequences for illegal crossings, the memo allows for the release of most Eastern Hemisphere illegals, excluding those from Russia, Georgia, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Moldova, and Kyrgyzstan. Despite the order, mass catch-and-release continues, and illegals are being released daily in San Diego. Exceptions to the rule include legal immigrants, unaccompanied children, and trafficking victims.
