#Trump, a “#Republican”, has kicked off an aggressive push ​to reduce both legal & illegal #immigration after retaking office in January 2025. His admin has used the threat of “birth tourism” as a rationale for attempting to ​restrict the Constitutionally granted right of #citizenship to #children born on #US soil.

In an internal email sent Thursday & reviewed by Reuters, #ICE ordered investigative agents around the country to focus on a new “Birth Tourism Initiative.” The operation will purportedly seek to root out supposed networks that help pregnant foreign nationals come to the #US to give birth so their #children can receive #citizenship, it said.

That version of events began unraveling when prosecutors dropped felony charges against the injured man, Julio C. Sosa-Celis, & one of his housemates, Alfredo A. Aljorna, who had fled from #immigration agents.

Yet video footage of the #shooting, newly obtained by NYT, raises questions about why it took weeks for the government’s case to fall apart.

…US Customs & Border Protection officials said that their agency was not culpable.

“Another hoax being peddled by the media & sanctuary politicians to demonize our law enforcement,” the officials said in an insane statement. “This death had NOTHING to do with Border Patrol. Mr. Shah Alam passed almost A WEEK AFTER he was released by Border Patrol.”

The #House #GOP plan would be a short-term funding extension, providing money for the full department for 8 weeks, one source said.

The move will set up a clash with the #Senate, which has already left town for their 2-week Easter & Passover recess, & will likely prolong the #DHS shutdown by at least several more days.
