ICE has been releasing illegal immigrants, including those with criminal records, from custody to clear space for the looming surge of new migrants at the border, in the latest sign of the government’s scramble to try to prepare.
last month that he wanted to cut the population to as few as 21,000 people to leave plenty of space to accommodate the border chaos as the administration gives up its Title 42 pandemic expulsion power Thursday night.said he would try to release mostly non-criminals but some criminals could be put back on the streets to make room. He said any criminals released would be “very low-level criminals.”
States and cities across the country say they are already overwhelmed with the migrants who have arrived in the past two years. “Those who arrive at our border and do not have a legal basis to stay will have made the journey often having suffered horrific trauma and having paid their life savings to the smugglers only to be quickly removed,” he told reporters in laying out his plans last month.
“Under the Biden administration, expedited removals is nothing more than a misleading phrase,” he told The Washington Times in a statement. “Few migrants are removed and even fewer are expedited. The current use of expedited removals as a substitute for Title 42 will sound tough, but it will actually do nothing to make our country safer since only seven percent of those processed for expedited removals are removed from the U.S. at all.
That leaves a sizable number of single adults who can’t be returned to Mexico and who can’t be quickly deported, and ICE’s newly freed space will quickly fill up.

Greenland Ice Sheet melting faster than previously thought, scientists sayScientists have determined that in the last 10 to 20 years of steady global warming, the ocean has played an 'important role' in the evolution of glaciers, Eric Rignot, professor of system science at the University of California, Irvine, and author of the study, told ABC News. Melting at the interface between ice sheets and the ocean in the Arctic is much more extensive than previously estimated, according to a study published Monday in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. What is happening at the grounding line -- the junction between a grounded ice sheet and the ocean -- led the researchers to discover much more melting that previously thought at Petermann Glacier in Greenland, according to the paper.
