REPORT: Biden-Harris Administration Not Collecting DNA from Migrants

Yet another whistleblower has come forward regarding yet another questionable practice of the Biden administration’s lax border policy.

Whistleblowers have come forward to reveal that the administration is not collecting DNA evidence from the illegals it is setting free inside the country.

Now Senate and House Republicans are demanding to know why.

Why Not?

It just makes sense to collect the DNA, especially when we see the number of crimes that are being committed by illegals around the country.

Not only that, but collecting this evidence is mandated in the DNA Fingerprint Act passed by Congress in 2005.

Secretary Mayorkas, however, has made it clear that he only follows the rules that he wants to follow, so the evidence is not being collected.

The law was also violated by Barack Obama’s administration but strictly enforced under the Trump administration.

The group of Republicans wrote, “In Fiscal Year 2021, the Biden-Harris Administration collected DNA from only 16% of the 1.9 million individuals encountered by Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and the Office of Field Operations (OFO).

“Further, in Fiscal Year 2022, DNA was collected from only 37% of the 2.7 million individuals encountered by CBP and OFO. Whistleblowers also disclosed that in the first three quarters of Fiscal Year 2023, CBP and OFO collected DNA from only 36% of the 2.3 million individuals encountered. More recently, according to protected whistleblower disclosures, CBP officials visited United States Border Patrol (USBP) processing facilities in Tucson, Casa Grande, Yuma, and San Diego, and at no facility that these officials visited was DNA being collected.

“This blatant disregard for the law has been exacerbated by your administration’s failed border policies, which have precipitated an unprecedented explosion in nationwide encounters of illegal immigrants at our borders — over 10 million in just three and-a-half years and this staggering sum doesn’t even account for the estimated 2 million that crossed and evaded apprehension.”

Republicans then noted that the three whistleblowers have been facing retaliation, stating, “Retaliation against Mr. Jones, Mr. Taylor, and Mr. Wynn continues to this day by your administration, despite OSC corroborating their claims and finding that prohibited personnel practices did occur.”

This close to the election, I highly doubt this issue will be addressed by the Biden administration.

However, if Trump wins, I very much look forward to seeing his DOJ aggressively investigate these charges and hold those responsible accountable.
